Not what we need! When they dropped support for XFS, I was locked out and happily went looking for a replacement. Syncthing ( https://syncthing.net/ ) does everything I need. Instead of some nameless cloud company hosting

Yep... my pfSense is virtualized, too. I need to get pfBlocker configured, but pi-hole works so well, I'm too lazy to do anything about it! I'm also working on an IoT VLAN - that Ring doorbell is a chatty Kathy!

If you're running some type of hypervisor (ESXi, Proxmox, etc.), you can create a tiny VM running Debian and load Pi-hole on it. No need for extra hardware and wires.

Absolutely... cleaner than TP will ever get you! Usually, a 30-second blast is all it takes. $35 on Amazon. Worth every penny!

If you're going to talk about the historical significance of social computing, I would imagine that Usenet would figure in the story somewhere. To jump from email threads (that the authors incorrectly call forums) to modern social net

Awesome! That's great news! I may try to rewrite some parts of my app and see if REMI is a good fit. Bottle is great if you have a simple use case... but getting HTTPS going was horrible. I can't count how many back-end engines

Hey -- Just want to give a shout-out and big thanks to the folks at repl.it!!! I love it! I'm teaching college kids who have never written code and repl.it is my platform of choice for quick examples while in the middle of a lectur

Does this support HTTPS? I'm building an app using Bottle as the framework and getting HTTPS to work properly (with a proper certificate) has been a nightmare. I think I fixed it after a full day of research and tinkering yesterday. T

Syncthing will do the job. Yes, it doesn't implement a cloud store like Dropbox. You have a couple of alternatives: 1) get a cheap vps host (digitalocean, vultr, etc.) and make it part of your syncthing 'cluster'. 2) get a

That is one of the most important facts about flying; it is also one of the most misunderstood. When I read it as a student pilot, I found the book to be oddly written, but so applicable. That one sentence will do wonders for final approac

Absolutely agree... but an aprs2 that incorporates some modern tech and modern thought could be interesting. What if every TNC was also a digipeater and they all coordinated to route their traffic via the shortest/best route to shore

I'm pretty sure it happened in both Firefox and Chrome. It seems to be a common complaint, but I couldn't find a fix (and didn't really look too hard).

Sounds pretty common! About Qubes: I was just playing with it a couple of weeks ago. It's interesting, and I'd consider using it except for one thing. When you're running a browser, the cursor doesn't change when hoveri

"Sucks" is subjective; you're allowed to think that. In years past you may have spent hours getting wireless or sound working. These days, if you buy decent, mainstream hardware it just works. Ubuntu does a great job of gett

It's about time. I can't imagine (as the author asserts) that people left Windows for Apple because of the lack of a command ssh client. Here's a thought: If you need to spend time on Unix/Linux machines, why not just r

Was just thinking, "This sounds like a job for IPFS!" I spent most of Sunday reading about and playing with IPFS. Great idea - I hope it gets some traction.

I can't say enough good things about pfSense. I'm running three of 'em and would gladly trash my Checkpoint firewalls to use pfSense, if our parent company didn't mandate them. I've run it on everything from tiny, A

For a router, I'd pick some BSD-based OS. pf is much more efficient than iptables, although I only know this anecdotally. I'm a huge fan of pfSense which wraps a nice UI and some great tools (proxy, AV, analysis, etc.) into one b

What about an OM617? That has to be one of the simplest, reliable, and over-engineered motors MB ever made. I spent 5 years running mine on vegetable oil! I figure that would have been a good Africa motor. How's getting gas been so f

In the last three years, I've bought five guns from a FFL dealer who has no store, while sitting at his kitchen table in his house. (In Maryland, no less!)
