  • I do not think this is true.

  • Unless there is some new revolutionary tech, things like the ESP32 have no driving factor to become obsolete.If you are relying on BT/WiFi/LoRa then there is a possibility of RF frequency regulations changing.

    But it is already an overpowered device for the majority of its applications and it's cheap

  • How can I create a Lemmy instance without coding or the use of Ethernet/router wiring?

    Jump

  • Uh, don't?You want a Lemmy instance - that I presume you would want to be somewhat reliable - without doing anything? WiFi prioritises convenience over speed and reliability. So, things will randomly fail.

    I guess pay for a Lemmy instance provider. Probably the easiest. But this is self hosting, and it sounds like you want a place to start and have chosen "hosting a Lemmy instance" as your learning ground.

    Something like cloudflare tunnel will let you punch through a firewall without having to mess with network stuff.A docker compose stack makes things as easy as they can be in such scenarios.These are terms you can google "Lemmy docker compose cloudflare tunnel"

    Here is 1 result: https://lemmy.world/post/299429

    Here is a GitHub for Lemmy in docker compose https://github.com/Drakeyves/lemmy-docker-setup

    This looks like it covers cloud flare in a compose stack: https://joelparkinson.me/self-hosting-with-cloudflare-tunnels-docker-compose/

    Read through, learn docker compose, understand cloudflare & cloudflare tunnels

  • How to self-host a highly available git server cluster?

    Jump

  • Wouldn't it be better to have highly available storage for the git repo?Something like Ceph, Minio, Seaweedfs, GarageFS etc.Cause git is file system based.

    Port forwarding & reverse proxying question.

    Jump

  • my router and my reverse proxy (traefik) is able to receive the necessary SSL/TLS certificates however

    From something like LetsEncrypt?As an HTTP-01 Challenge? Not an DNS-01 challenge?Http challenge means that port 80 is accessible from the public internet (because that's how LE can confirm it can reach your server via the public DNS records, proof of server ownership).DNS-01 is about proof of DNS record ownership, and doesn't prove public internet access.

    Also, what are you self hosting?Does it really need to be publicly accessible? Or just accessible by you and people you trust?

  • “The European Union won’t take chicken from America. They won’t take lobsters from America. They hate our beef because our beef is beautiful and theirs is weak. It’s unbelievable” Lutnick told FoxNews

  • Oh yeh. US the bully. Meat is absolutely the issue of the future. Not electricity, not communications, not water. Fucking chlorine washed chicken and hormone injected beef. Nobody else can grow that.

    Let the US deploy their McDonalds & forward bases as a military operation against - what was previously - an ally that provided goods, goods and knowledge sharing.

    The US has military might, but they have like 6 months to actually use it. The EU isn't sleeping, Canada isn't sleeping, the world is not sleeping.After 6 months, the allies they would be invading are no longer relying on "US off-switch" military assets. It will be some fucking washed-out russian "special operation" type failure, where the US either has to commit to genocide or get kicked back home.And anyone they use their military might on - who has previously been an ally and trade partner - would be instantly backed up by the rest of the western world.Because the US has turned from ally to hostile. Everyone is now preparing for it.

    My comment isn't tough talk.The US is tough talking. And have complete fucked it up. They have slapped on tariffs then undone tariffs, then slapped on tariffs, then exempted shit, then saying the exemptions are just a different type or tariffs.They have fucking rang the bell of trade power until it's meaningless and nobody fucking cares.The US trade talks are bullshit.Other countries can just stonewall until it's time for the toddlers afternoon nap. Look at China, they aren't relenting. The EU isn't relenting. Canada isn't relenting. Who is the US winning against? Penguins on an uninhabited island?!Oooh, we fold to the big bad tariffs. Next week, the guy in charge executive-orders some new bullshit against us.Why not just retaliate, and still new bullshit against us the following week anyway?It's idiocy to capitulate to the tariffs.

    The US won't bomb the EU over shitty meat and trade deals.The US military might is - essentially - meaningless.

  • Fuck, I'm sorry that's a part of your growing-up.Life-for-food is a thing. I know farms, I've raised sheep, I've sent them away.I hate the fact it's so industrialised. I'm glad I never had to work in a slaughterhouse. Having the vet put an animal down was bad enough.

  • You don't want 10-day aged chicken?Or maybe you want 10-day aged chicken that has been processed in a way that the 10 days of aging doesn't change the chicken - instead of usual aging processes that enhance meats (well, red meats)

  • Big Ag, sponsored subsidised by the US government.

    Take a hike. The US has lost all its trust and trading power with trump's tariff games.Things tariffed, things exempt, not exempt but not tariffed, U-turn on tariffs.The uncertainty isn't bringing manufacturing back to the US. Especially if the US is tariffing raw materiels.And it isn't going to force the EU to buy worse products than they can grow locally.I buy milk from a farm that's 70 miles away. It's a bit more expensive, but holy hell does it taste better than the (already fairly decent) supermarket milk.

    I cannot imagine a world where I have to refrigerate eggs. Sitting in the fridge, soaking up the random flavours of leftovers. That's weird as fuck, man.

    "Big Ag" has power in the US. The US has pissed away their power failing to strong arm dozens of countries. And they've deported/interned (or are working on departing and interning) their labour farm workforce.Eggs are expensive in the US? Have fun with the next 6 months.

  • Akamai becomes the official distributor of the Linux kernel

    Jump

  • If it adds to the content, then it is worth something. So make someone worth something.If it doesn't matter, add a random screenshot of kernel code.

    The "worth something" doesn't even have to be financial.Find a nice image that someone has made which is linux-related, and ask if you can use it & credit the author.If no, try someone else.

    If that's too much work, use a random screenshot of kernel code ...

    There are artists out there that have already freely shared some really cool art, that would love to be able to point to publications that they have permitted to use it.If you have some budget, pay them. Value the time involved.

    Just not AI filler BS. I'm not going to see some filler AI art and go "oh yeh, I'm going to use that for X/Y/Z".But if I see some cool art, I'm inclined to commission something for an actual use case

  • Am I a jerk for telling my son he should find another dream (career)?

    Jump

  • Sounds like you have had a very productive life! Your son is very lucky.

    Encourage the education. But there are loads of good careers that don't need university degrees.And all the while, he can try and achieve his dream.

    From personal experience, university wasn't useful for me - other than giving me time to figure out what I don't want to do, and meeting friends that are still friends to this day.But I could've easily done an apprenticeship, or gone straight into some industry/company. Some days, I wish I had. Other days, I wouldn't want to be doing anything other than what I am atm.

    Dream case, he makes it.Best case, he figures out what he wants to do by 21.Worst case, he's still figuring it out when he's 25.

    I wasn't making decent money until I was late 20s. Even now, I can't guarantee I have enough work next year. It's extremely likely, but I'm self employed so...Knowing my folks will still support me means I can continue pursuing interesting, useful and innovative things, even in my 30s - even tho the support is no longer required.

    Maybe talk to some of your contacts in the football industry.See if they have similar "football or nothing", or if they had backup plans.Talk to some managers, coaches, sports scientists, medics etc.Ask them how they would get into pro football. Ask them what happens to pro-football aspiring players that don't make the cut.Use your experience and connections to help and support your son. And be there if it doesn't work out.You might know better, but he still has to learn. The best lessons are mistakes.
