I'm surprised you seem to presume that WhatsApp, Discord etc. wouldn't immediately fill the gap. At least in Berlin (School and Uni) my experience was that WhatsApp was far more prevalent already (due to more mixed Android/iO

Maybe they want to play a similar game to mail-in rebates? Or it could just be an old process that has yet to be modernized

There's also team culture fit, which depending on (mis)application can be very broad too.

It's nice to see Heinlein groups' activities see some more publicity. They have been continuously chipping away at making OSS more suitable for business and government use-cases (from Big Blue Button to NextCloud). OpenCloud and O

Not too push the point too hard, but a "dev environment" for a product is for a business (not an individual consumer). Having a server (rack) in an office is not that hard, but alas the cloud might be better here for ease of admin

A minor point might also be that TV was far less addictive (non-linear, personalized,...) and consumption was significantly harder (carrying a TV is difficult, even in watch format)

That would be possible. The main problem there is that nixpkgs, the package repository one would want to translate, uses a good chunk of specialized build infrastructure (parts in nix, some in rust/Perl/Python) that is designed fo

I haven't that done this in some time, but templating some markdown code for pandoc and creating an ebup might be a viable avenue.

It's a bit more complicated, you need to use their compiler (LVVM fork with clang+fortran). This in itself is not that special as most accelerators (ICC, nvcc, aoc) already require this. Modifications are likely on the level of: Does t

Running as a cloud image can be relatively easy, you only need the default drivers from the kernel and need to get your image installed. The latter can be done by booting into another distro and kexec'ing into your own kernel and perfo

Probably look for display artifacts (pixel borders)? But a fixture that takes a good enough screen + enough distance to make the photographed pixels imperceptible is likely just a medium hurdle for a motivated person. You probably can'

The idea of reducing wiring in a DC seems nice but the argument for latency and power usage seems weird. Getting faster than a fiber link is likely very hard. Bandwidth might be an interesting angle but also probably comes with some constra

My problem was mostly that MinIO was not significantly better for my use-case then garage after the admin console was yanked. Thank you for the pointer though, I will take a look at this for my plane.so instance (using a private containeriz

Minions has taken away the admin UI for everything except a bucket browser in one of the last releases. And now they have stopped publishing updates to their community edition docker images. As the linked GitHub issue points out this now m

Garage worked for most of my use-cases but it lacks, among other endpoints[0], bucket ACLs and bucket replication. Anonymous access is also an open issue[1]. They are also a comparatively young project and while fully OSS do not, afaik, app

Can vouch for it as an adequate self-hostable option. It has some missing features, compared to Minio, and is less compatible but works for most applications.

by c0balt 1y ago
I'm glad to have migrated to garage in time. This is quite unfortunate though as a lot of open source projects, like plane.so, used minio via container images for s3 with docker compose.

The other commenter already answered the usecase question, for self-hosting you will likely find ansible the easiest entrypoint. It is in general the simplest of these systems to get started with and you should be able to incrementally ado

Ansible, Salt and Puppet are mostly industry standard. Those tools are commonly referred to as configuration management (systems). Ansible basically automates the workflow of: log in to X, do step X (if Y is not present). It has broad suppo

Thank you for that pointer/explanation. That does make the choice of words understandable to some extent even if it feels a bit excessive.

It appears this is an active offer from Anna's archive, so presumably they can handle the load and are able to satisfy the request safely.
