The Low-Tech-Magazine proposes a speed limit to the internet: https://solar.lowtechmagazine.com/2015/10/can-the-internet-r... High speed wipes out distances and dramatically increases pressure. Both in real (topol

a risk is server bugs.

wasn't that the idea of ssh to begin with?

I love that attitude towards self-hosting and it not being the sole hobby from that day on. Casual self-hosting if you will. House-keeping UX is key for self-hosting by laypersons.

ah - I would never have thought of putting something that invites comments on a web space with TOS of e.g. github. You want a custom domain anyway, don't you? The space won't be an issue then, is it?

by mro_name 5y ago
you are definitively not on shared hosting webspace, are you? What is your baseline and how is that simpler?

the fediverse promises to connect across instances. Imagine your blog is one, too and can receive likes and replies just like any other fediverse instance. Each comment is both on the commenters fediverse profile as well as under the blog a

why?
310.
by mro_name 5y ago
indeed, or websub comments from other places. Or Activitypub… Each microblog is a comment system – just reverse from what a blog wants. The Fediverse really could help if just somebody would implement such a comment engine. But that engine

why would I use 'my' email address? The blog is on a domain, that comes with tons of email adresses. Doesn't it? So just ínvent a dedicated one that well may float. Change once appropriate. Catching a form-post on the server

so do I [1] and I render them in an iframe straight from the comment feed. Wouldn't have to be email, could be a web form or be aggregated from HN or alike as well. [1] https://blog.mro.name/2019/05/wp-to-hugo

lol, the car metaphor again. That came from the guy who thought the next big thing is talking paperclips, right?

Wonderful! Have you considered a machine readable DOAP access?

sounds quirky, no one would use it, I guess. lol

I refer to 'Pedelection – Verlagerung- und Klimaeffekte durch Pedelecnutzung im Individualverkehr', Institut für Energie- und Umweltforschung Heidelberg, 2012 I didn't do the research my own. You's is more recent, though

be confident – an electric car has about the total-cost-of-ownership co2 footprint as a diesel (sic!). I ride a bike or go by foot. Rural germany, however.

Traffic inside or outside EU is marginal. It's just illegal from the start. You need prior informed consent and it must be optional. If it is not technically necessary. And a CDN rarely is. I can show you some sites that do without.
321.
by mro_name 5y ago
indeed.
322.
by mro_name 5y ago
no, because that's where to visitor want to go by explicit free will. Not so a hidden 3rd party.

first I don't agree with coining any group as stupid per se. Second, if they are a target group, a website has no excuse but to deal with them.
325.
by mro_name 5y ago
no. It didn't decide and so isn't responsible. Have you ever seen a gun in jail?

and: many are forced to use the www if they like it or not. E.g. for tax or to get access to public services. So there's no excuse for hostility but it has to be legal and layperson-friendly.
327.
by mro_name 5y ago
the car example again. There is a legal framework that has certain requirements. Enforced by a court here. These laws are from elected representatives of the people. So they are binding. Like it or not.
328.
by mro_name 5y ago
no. They just can't care about everything themselves individually all the time. So penalising unwanted behaviour isn't about stupidity at all.
329.
by mro_name 5y ago
no, if external resources are pulled in prior informed consent then there is no agency. Such consent is a hard requirement. If I visit example.com I am not to guess what 3rd parties it uses.

yes.
