Nginx works well and there's a tool that automates most of the extra config stuff for you.

I’ve been using your app for 2 months on the free plan after seeing you link it here. The site dailymaverick.co.za which I frequent has built in AI-read voice for articles provided by a third party service. For some reason, Articulu fails t

Looks amazing, gonna get some friends to install and test a network (internet) game. We’ll probably jump a few continents to get us all connected so it will be interesting to see how the netcode handles players with varying latency. I wonde

Hey, would you mind explaining how scheduling is turned into 3-sat? I’ve read some Wikipedia and SO but I’m still not clear how scheduling generalises to solving this problem.

Streisand installs around 70 different services. If all of them are not patched there’s a good chance your box becomes vulnerable over time. Remember, you’re piping all your internet traffic through this box.

AFAIK all software on Streisand does not auto update so you need to redeploy periodically (and the repo hasn’t been updated in a while, the main author has little time for it anymore) which isn’t great if you’ve shared certs with non techni

If anyone from DDG is reading this please make the site faster from South Africa. Thanks.

It’s actually simpler because the modules each grant you a number of credits, that’s it. Passing means you get the credits. Yeah the main website sucks but they use Moodle to manage courses and it’s okay.

As an aside, I always thought that Polonius’ advice to Leartes is excellent, and certainly did not read it the way Vonnegut implies.

The University of South Africa is one of the largest correspondence universities in the world. Also, the course material is quite good but the support not so much (teachers and profs might take some time to respond, YMMV). Also about 5x che

Right, let me clarify. Let's define three realms of experience for the sake of conversation: (physical/material), (emotional), (intellectual). For simplicity let's assume that all human experiences may be categorised thus. No

The focus should not be on "what," but on "why." I just got this advice the other day and it's liberated my thinking. I was (am) stuck in a rut believing that if I just find something I am passionate about it would

USAID is also used as a foreign policy tool to pressure poor countries to adopt pro US stances. Happened to us in ZA but I believe we refused to comply with DJT’s new requirements and now no longer benefit from USAID

An English teacher in high school, emphasising that poetry was subject to interpretation, once recounted to us that John Donne was once attacked in a newspaper over his exposition of the meaning of a poem that he himself had written!

Nice point about the light skimming of largely irrelevant details; I do that too and also suffer some mild but acceptable confusion later in a work... It also depends how engaged a book has me. Sometimes books are about the story and those

Meditation and yoga have taken the ‘Western’ world by storm. This is because they are extremely easy to instruct. Close your eyes, breathe evenly, etc. Those who know (yah pasyati, sah pasyayi - are initiated in scripture and are able to ‘s

No thanks. I’m sick of high prices and backdated stacks. I host all my servers on DO, EU even for ZA customers. I wish this was a DO announcement. I’m a one man band and am loathe to invest the time to learn the whole AWS stack. Maybe light
