Does it even matter? Just opening the door of a clean room is enough to make the whole thing useless. Also, even without opening the door, how does one even run an ASML device without their support even without remote shutdown? It’s not a $350M toaster. That doesn’t sound realistic.

Canada, Mexico, the EU, and others just refusing to do business with the US.

Seeing how the EU is still doing business with Russian while it’s at war with Ukraine it’s hard to imagine such a scenario. I didn’t run the numbers but AFAIK the EU has no realistic alternative for a lot of things, starting with energy again all the way to high-end chips (CPU and GPU) and services, including software. There could be theoretical alternatives, e.g. FLOSS software and their services on lower-end chips but that would require some pretty fundamental changes.

The prices elsewhere is irrelevant. If there is 1 thing that is not movable it’s precisely a house. One doesn’t buy a building but rather a location. The price of real estate is about the infrastructure available.

Anyway, even if it wasn’t about location, location, location (the 1 rule in real estate) here the point is about citizenship, not actual houses. FWIW St Lucia is a beautiful place but… step out of a luxury hotel and see what happens. GDP per capita is low ($15K) and Gini coefficient is high.

Eh… I have one and use it.

What are you monsters using, a spoon?! /s

FWIW I also have a butter knife, a saucer, 3 graters… I mean nobody needs any of that, you can survive with knives and forks but if you do cook frequently, good tools help IMHO.

My usual reminder to consider “The Mouse that Roared - Disney and the End of Innocence” by Henry A. Giroux and Grace Pollock https://www.bloomsbury.com/us/mouse-that-roared-9798216263937/ i.e. Disney is JUST a very large corporation that sells whatever it can (plastic toys, parks, movies, food, etc) thanks to intellectual property laws it reshaped to capture more and for longer period of time to the most influenceable segment of the population, namely kids.

Disney is bad. This just makes it marginally worst. They don’t care, they just want to exploit kids more.

What the heck… https://openai.com/index/agentic-ai-foundation/

puking emoji it’s on OpenAI.com to talk about “Open Standards” or “Open Ecosystem” while they f*cking “donated” a markdown example while keeping the 1 thing they are seen as innovative for, namely GPT3 and above, as closed.

It’s absolute Newspeak.

Honestly it’s a good reminder of the positions between FSF/FSFE/etc vs the Linux Foundation which is basically just a BigTech club https://www.linuxfoundation.org/about/members where large corporations find new “open” ways to try to exploit the commons.

Capitalism.

That’s actually pretty wise, what if your then autistic dog outsmarts you now thanks to their autism? /s

No viruses disguised as music, afaik

How would that work? For games or software in general, something executable, I get it, but content beside mind blowing proof of concept, I have a hard time codecs can be hijacked so that such a payload gets to do anything via e.g. VLC or mpv.

Sure, remove the red light but please also remove cars.

The plain n8n app is very capable of doing a ton of stuff.

Sorry if I’m a bit slow but what does it actually do? I skimmed through “automations” earlier this morning and I mostly found paid-for GenAI related stuff.

Thanks I’ll dig deeper. I guess I do want something like n8n but ideally :

• no AI
• self hosted FLOSS services first, if possibly only (can just be filters like F-Droid has)
• no need for no-code / low-code, code is great

which makes me wonder what they do provide, e.g. is it mostly indexing existing plugins and then some scaffolding for non coders?

Do you have a specific use case for two containers that you want to talk to each other?

Sure, for example once a Jitsi Meet meeting ends (more than 1 person in a room in, everybody gone), save the chat log to CopyParty e.g. WebDAV push to /meetingname_date.txt would be enough to be useful. It’s something we tend to do manually on a regular basis.

road map of what you are trying to accomplish before hand, and run it by the dev teams.

Yes no rush and I can code so I would be able to test before suggesting anything.

As I’m thinking about it, I wonder if your solution might be automation?

I don’t touch AI but I do think conventions, e.g. not “just” an API but SWAGGER, specific filesystem on mountpoints, etc could facilitate this.

Indeed and for PeerTube for example it has an API, cf https://docs.joinpeertube.org/api-rest-reference.html which I did use. It also provides SWAGGER so that could facilitate integration with others services also providing APIs. I was starting to think that the meta service could have read only public only token generated for each new service and provide a SWAGGER endpoint to facilitate using the API of more than 1 service.

Thanks, that’s indeed exactly the kind of thing I’m looking for “The authentication glue you need.” but even more generalized than that, e.g. just “the glue you need.” not solely for authentication.

Edit: to clarify and coming back after leaving few other comments, the 1 thing authentik has is that it is a cross-service need, namely nearly all services do need authentication AND, probably consequence of that, there are conventions and standards already in place, e.g. SAML, OAuth2/OIDC, LDAP, Auth0. So that makes everything much easier.

most of my services are an island to themselves

same

and I like it that way.

… well that’s the part I’m challenging. I was thinking like this but I’m wondering if that could be improved.

PS: I use ntfy and like it, that was just an example.

Yes I can relate to the process.

Any further interoperability is luck based.

Unfortunately I can relate to that, hence the question here :D

Thanks, are you saying there is a mechanism in place, e.g. does YunoHost suggests plugins or integrations for services it manages?

eh… yes thanks and I do actually have ntfy (I also warmly recommend it) but this was just an example.

Well I do have Home Assistant, been running it for years, but HA is solely for … well home assisting (or IoT). HA as integrations but let’s say I want to use HA with … any of my other services, e.g. CopyParty to maybe store logs and makes them available or PeerTube to have videos from my camera, I can look at HA integrations, or CopyParty… issues maybe, or PeerTube npm registry.

My point being that HA is a good example with integrations but it’s just one example. If I do take this example seriously though, is there a mechanism beside manual search in the list of integration that would list integrations with my services directly?
