I wish something like .config would be a thing for storing configuration files in repositories. Instead we have a .vscode, .github, .gitlab, .idea, .vs, etc

The linked message is from 2019, i.e. per-M1 Apple laptops and at a time when arm in datacenter was just starting out.

Tbh, I feel like it’s kinda pointless to discuss a comment made by someone over 4-years ago. Both the environment and the person itself can change a lot in that time.

I feel that at the very least, the customer in that case should be entitled to a complete refund of the product, regardless of whether they bought it 5 days or 5 years ago and regardless of the condition their device is in.

This should at least give some incentive to companies to not perform such sweeping changes to their terms of service and if they do, the customer can more easily remove themselves from the lock-in without taking a financial hit.

Convenience for end-users and avoiding link rot is probably one of the reasons.

I just really dislike the whole left/right tribalism. Politics is a lot more complex than left/right and just marking someone as either just increases polarisation…

yeah, tunneling into your local network and then calling WoL from there is the way to go.

ngl, I’m annoyed whenever someone creates an application but doesn’t want to publish their code cause it looks bad. Like no one cares that your code is bad and by publishing it, you can get others to help you improve it.

This. And even then there should be procedures in place to essentially make it impossible to send the wrong inputs.

It’s like when an intern accidentally drops the production database. It’s not the interns fault for sending the wrong command. It’s the managements fault for not restricting access in the first place.

Not selfhosted but I think Pocket also falls into that category of service.

Also, you can just download an older version of the toolchain and use that to compile the project. If the project is properly setup it’ll tell you the toolchain version it used. If not you can probably guess by the time of the last commit ^^

Pretty sure it’s targeted primarily at a small group of enthusiasts so with a low production volume, the high price makes perfect sense. If that’s too much for you, just don’t buy it :P

While Vaultwarden is great I would not suggest selfhosting your password manager unless you do regular backups. Losing all your password cause your server went down is a great way to ruin your day.
