Maybe your bank is better about this and offers OFX, but ultimately I gave up on this approach due to my bank adding more aggressive anti-scraping measures over time. The credit card sites were even worse about this. Now I have a Postfix se

More or less, though LXC (and LXD using the LXC backend) are focused on system containers rather than single services. Basically lightweight VMs with a full init and the usual set of set of system daemons.

I did something along those lines a few years ago but the scripts for it are long since gone. The basic workflow was to compose the deck in LibreOffice and then do a few conversions: - ODT -> PDF - PDF -> directory of PNG images Then

AFAICT they're not, and I think that's the point of GP's criticism. If it were FOSS you would have the option of figuring out the hosting and migration story yourself if the company goes under. Without that you have to rely o

The series overall has a pretty good cross-platform story: - The original DOS versions run well on DOSBox from what I've heard, although I've never tried them personally. - There's also a re-implementation of the game engine

If you're open to learning it, Tcl is actually a good middle ground here. The best way I can describe it is "structured shell script" - still very string oriented, but the syntax and command set is much more well thought out,
