Living in the Netherlands I genuinely don't hate this. Fat bikes are kind of annoying here. The people riding them often go with ludicrous speeds as they have been altered, but without a plate like a speed pedelec should. They're quite dangerous.

They're also parked quite unhinged as they don't really fit into regular spots. Hopefully people get normal electric bikes now.

That isn't what normalized means in the context of databases.

Also databases store the same data many times over often. For redundancy and load-balancing purposes. Really, federation just takes care of replication somewhat.

I live in the Netherlands too, but I'm certain this was an online service from the US. It's definitely a minority of them but it happens nonetheless

My device always shows the WiFi number. It's nice to know since I live in an apartment building with shared wifi. The shared wifi is 4/5 and mine is 6 so I can see at a glance if I'm connected right.

I can't imagine another reason it'd be useful though.

Caddy Reverse Proxy with Basic Auth for services which are critical like my 3d printer. Without auth for other services like my website or jellyfin and such. I use docker for everything so that's another layer of safety for me.

I have port 443 open and use subdomains for most stuff. Some other ports for non-HTTP services but I don't have any right now.

that service will keep working until the next billing day

You wish. I have had one too many services that cancel immediately upon request, even if you paid for the month 3 days ago.

Build as in set up all the systems and configs, not as in compile. Many nice-to-have features just aren't there if you don't configure them yourself.

Yeah that's what I have too. One of my servers is exposed with key auth and I just tunnel to other servers from there. A few MB egress is nothing compared with the amount of spam my webserver needs to deal with

I've started moving over some of my services from Google to Proton now. Using my own domain so a switch in the future is as simple to do as changing the DNS. It's something I can recommend everyone.

Too bad I can't get my work to switch from Google.

That's why I use Fedora lmao

I was once a minimal arch user and it's awful because nothing ever just works. You've got to build everything yourself and it's a ton of work, and often breaks. Modern, user friendly distros like Fedora work great. Never have to fix anything

I have used it in the past for a few years. I don't think you should. Why?

  • The Manjaro devs are idiots. They have broken the AUR on multiple occasions.
  • Their packages break more often than upstream Arch since you get update bundles which they release. This isn't tested as well as it should and may lead to things breaking.
  • Arch is also easier to install nowadays, if you really want a rolling release distro.

If you just want something not-Ubuntu and easy to use, I tend to favor Fedora personally.
