Hm, I’d probably get a copy for the fantasy section as well. It really reads like a fantasy adventure.

Oh I’m sure it runs perfectly fine in a container, it’s just not my preferred setup.

Last time I checked, radicale and baikal were the sensible options. I went with radicale, no regrets, but not in a container.

I don’t know of such an alternative. A quick solution would be to use something like GeoNotes to take geolocated notes.

As far as a self-hosted solution goes, I’d just like to point out that you wouldn’t need a self-hosted database of places. You could query Ouverture (or Google, OSM, etc.) for places near you, and you’d just need to store the check-in on your server with a basic API. This is an interesting problem, and not super hard to implement.

A real classic: BBC Radio 4’s History of the world in 100 objects

“One, two, three, two, five, three, seven…”

Yelling yabadabadoo and sliding down that dinosaur

It really depends on your approach to learning things. If you’re looking for a systematic approach, I really like No Starch Press books for that sort of thing: How Linux Works or Your Linux Toolbox (for a more playful approach).

But in the end there’s really no substitute for installing Debian on bare metal and tinkering with it. I would really recommend Debian, because it’s the archetype of how Linux systems have been working for the last 30 years or so. Arguably, this is currently changing, but come to grips with Debian before you dabble in more modern approaches to system management.

Yeah there was a probably a nicer way to do what they are doing

I understand the worry that this is coup

but if you choose to believe

Seeing as there is nothing I can do about it

I empathize with the sentiment, but you’re delusional.

Ah, I’ve only seen it done by referendum because parliament / congress had been dissolved by then. But hey, YMMV

It’s a coup. They are currently rewriting the rules of how things are done.

The way things are going, the next “vote” you’ll get is to ratify the new and improved constitution. I’ve actually seen a couple of coups first hand, that’s usually how it goes.

Don’t get me wrong, it’s terrible that they were granted access to very sensitive information (government contracts, employee data, probably tax returns last I heard) with no oversight. That’s gone, no way back.

But make no mistake, this is not a heist. It’s a coup. They are seizing control of meta-infrastructures of the government: payroll, contracts, payments, communications, software. This is how you hold a country hostage.

This! It’s just the name of the software, not sure why everyone’s getting so worked up about it.

I think it’s a brilliant use case for federation, hope this sees some adoption!
