Eh, it’s a fine line tbh. Not that I enjoy defending Google.

You get both “this UI hasn’t changed in a decade” and “this UI is perfect never change it” in relatively equal amounts. The rest honestly don’t care either way.

While I agree, where do you start if you have zero clue on what exactly you’re trying to accomplish? An LLM is fine for quick search and summary, then read through the applicable data.

I’m not a prepper and have both a gasoline and solar generator. Generators arent just for preppers, they are commonly owned in areas with regular power outages, for example.

And honestly, solar panels are so common these days you could rig something up with relative ease with a basic understanding of electricity.

Solar generators exist, and are relatively inexpensive for smaller units.

Sheesh, you’re living in the stone age my dude.

Ngl this feels like arguing semantics.

People need to stop touting FOSS as more secure. More auditable, sure. But there are many, many examples of FOSS applications being insecure or abusive.

The bottom line is just “be wary of what apps you install period.”

“A lack of money will prevent them from doing shitty things for money!”

I get what you’re going for, but it’s likely googles money that has slowed down the enshitification process.

I could expose my IP, I was previously and really don’t have a problem with it. My IP is fairly static. It’s just more convenient to use cloudflared internal to the network and proxy the addresses.

If I can’t figure out an automated solution for this, that’s likely what I’ll do. I’m just hopeful there’s a tool out there to do this that I’m just not familiar with.

Thanks for the response regardless, I appreciate you taking the time!

I’d be fine with individual certs, the issue I’m running into is that a cloudflare proxy record requires a cert for that multi level subdomain, and they won’t handle that cert without you paying them. You can, however, upload your own cert for it.

I’m trying to find a way to automate that process, since remembering to update a cert manually every 3 months is outside my ability.

Look into ubiquiti stuff. Keep in mind it’s prosumer/near enterprise equipment though, so has a higher cost associated with it.

Pay for windows?

They were talking about matrix itself, not a specific option. And I’m not going to lie, having to hand hold your servers federation choices seems like a hassle. At that point why not just use a self hosted, non federated option?

Oooo thank you for this. I already use Calibre but their web offering is imho kinda bad. This looks like it’s pretty much a drop in solution to my problem. If I throw it behind a zero trust page I can even open it up to the open internet.

Thank you for this!

What I really want is a a similar project for epub files. I’ve not been able to find a web based library that allows easy download and auth based management.

Time to learn how to sail?

LLMs can’t reason. Their blocks can be worked around trivially. Ask chat gpt if it’s a therapist, or even tell it to pretend to be one, and it will tell you it can’t impersonate people.

Yet…

For god sakes don’t use Brave. Brave has been caught doing shady shit in the past, and the CEO is a piece of shit on top of that.

Use Firefox with privacy addons.

This seems as unlikely to be true, as it does sensationalist. Hate on Bitcoin all ya like, but don’t make off the cuff “calculations” and report it as news.

The fact that they have to resort to checking logs to determine who is coming into the office should be enough proof of how pointless working from the office is.

If you literally can’t tell without a literal in/out log, you can’t claim performance or communication as reasons for requiring it. You’re literally saying “we can only tell if we check the logs.”
