It's lovely that these devices get a chance at being productive again.

One of the scary things about ransomware attacks is to think of the possibility of other actors having gotten in before and copied all the data. I can't imagine the security hole is always an unknown zero day.

I know this is only one aspect of a migration but it was at least trivial for me to import my ZFS cluster from TrueNAS Core into TrueNAS Scale.

A little off topic but does TrueNAS Scale require an Enterprise SSD for the OS drive? IIRC TrueNAS Scale runs Kubernetes under the hood. I'm curious if a regular consumer SSD would be quickly destroyed by the frequent random writes nee

Here's a wild idea! - Bitwarden - Self-host - Don't listen on public Internet IPs or regular LAN IPs - Listen on Tailscale IP. - Put TLS in front of it the Tailscale way. - Run Tailscale on all your devices and access Bitwarden fr

I use PostgreSQL in a container in my home lab. The backup is uploaded to GCP every morning 0200 with a 90 day retention policy. PostgreSQL handles my finances, my database of quotes & collection of notes.

Congratulations and all the best for your venture! One of my favorite aspects of Factorio was that the environment constrained your scaling. Grow out too fast and your tech won't be able to hold back the evolved hordes. Build too far a

On the other side of things, I wonder if you could create a decent value prop for podcast clients to embed your chat bit inline or similar

So glad to see this. There is a real opportunity to create a decent space for these discussions. Allowing the podcast host to determine the governance model could get interesting and the possibility of allowing podcasts to monetize their &#

Started trying Vaultwarden last night and so far I'm really impressed. I have it integrated into my desktop, laptops and browsers. I just need to automate my backups. For self-hosting passwords and similar files it seems rock solid so

At this point it feels like I hear "We will consider X as a declaration of war" from Russia every day or so. It reminds me of the Uno Wild Card. I wonder if they're using it as a catch all for any gaps in their armor? Can&#x2

The following is my opinion. Others may have a different take on these ideas. - Not charging enough from the start. Two clients accepted my rate way too fast. - Giving time estimates for every piece of work rather than price estimates. Pric

This is dangerously close to being off-topic but it would be good to hear from people interested in PLC4X: I would really like to see home appliance manufacturers extend their products with a simple 2.n IO pin interface at the back. Absolut

One of my favorite experiences working at a large bank was sitting in on calls in the call center for a morning. It blew my mind. Our systems were terribly unhelpful in handling the average call. I was embarrassed to note the vast differenc

In this spirit I've been playing with spun up Firefox instances in a Google Cloud Run. The container is stateless and goes away after I close the page that connects to video stream of the other container in my browser.

I would vote Hephaestus. Aside from what is mentioned in the post, Hephaestus [is supposed to have] created Talos. Talos was a humanoid perimeter patrol robot with offences capabilities. Maybe that makes him more Tony Stark than god of prog
