Biggest problem being not being able to paste much of the complicated code found online. You can save it and run it via bash command though. oh my zsh can recreate much of the fish functionality while maintaining good bash interoperability.

I haven't tried the app yet but I have managed Linux servers for 20 years and still think this app can be pretty useful. You can use whatever tools to set up the initial state of a server using this app.

Tell me how you use Ansible to check cron jobs, docker container states and read logs.

Use SeaTable. Rows can be very flexible and I've been using it for years for my to-do list (also issue tracker on smaller projects) and it works very well. Works well on mobile as well.

How do you mean can’t be sure if it recovers? It’s not hoping for inconsistent states to be recovered by the db but they’re supposed to be in good state with file system snapshotting. https://serverfault.com/a/806305

Since when did LAMP go down? Maybe only Apache is getting less popular but still has no problem.

How is the performance for both? Last time I used restic a few years ago, it choked on not so large data set with high memory usage. I read Borg doesn't choke like that.

For regular DB like MySQL/PostgreSQL, just snapshot on zfs without thinking.

3-2-1 analogy is old. We have infinite flexibility on where we can put data unlike before cloud servers existed. I'd at least have file system snapshots locally for easy recovery in case of manual mistakes, have it copied at a remote l

Who are looking up PTR records? 54.in-addr.arpa looks to be Amazon's range and there are several others.

This just shows that domain is incorporated not just in documents but on systems that actually trigger accessing it all over the world.

Isn't part of the reasons to run a public DNS to sell these hard earned info for profit to marketers etc but they just release publicly? Of course this is just the tip of the iceberg of the information they gather. Really interesting t

What can you even do if you can't trust a VPS provider?

Back then, I used ISC's DHCP server, but nowadays you have other options like AdGuard Home which includes a nice web UI that is simpler to manage than just a daemon implementation.

How is it possible to live without aliases? Typing the original command every time, even though history lookup may help, would totally ruin me. I have `netstat -lntpu` aliased as `nst`. (Along with `s` as `sudo`.)

Sure. Most of the third party plugins are a joke that barely work or have serious UI problem and the core is like amateur work finally stitched together to work. Recently Stalwart got a grant to work on adding WebDAV, CalDAV and CardDAV and

My zfs never broke under Ubuntu and installation is easy by installing 1 package.

I have had BSD as my router for a few years in the past and used Linux for a few decades but I never got this “BSD is cleaner” argument. Linux has man pages and Google gives you plenty more practical resources when in doubt and nothing felt

Ubuntu can have zfs with an install of a package. BSD’s inability to utilize docker ecosystem had me decided to stick with Ubuntu for a decade, unless things change and BSD gets clear advantages over Linux.

Use trash-cli and additionally git commit the target if you’re nervous before deletion.
