Using Traefik outside of k8s is for masochists. Especially after configv2. Caddy is by far the easiest reverse proxy to configure and has the sanest defaults.

I wasn’t looking for technical support. You can do everything correctly and still get your mails randomly marked as spam or not delivered at all. This has happened to us, some of our customers, multiple smaller email providers as well as several municipalities (imagine blackholing government emails, what a grand idea). They don’t send sensible return headers, they might not even return your undelivered mail at all, they won’t react to any inquiries to their postmaster contact (or anywhere else really), they will blacklist entire IP blocks sometimes. The only way to sidestep any issues with them is to pay a few thousand bucks to enter their cool kids club certified sender alliance, which is what the big marketing firms use to deliver mass amounts of unwanted ads unhindered through their networks.

It is cheap, but the performance leaves much to be desired and their technical support is piss poor.

I’ve had the opposite experience with their cloud services in a professional context. My biggest gripe is with United Internet, the monopolistic company that owns IONOS, 1&1 (an ISP) as well as the ad-ridden, flaming pile of garbage that are GMX and WEB.DE, two of the most popular email service providers in Germany as well as a constant source of pain for anyone operating an Email server. They will ignore common industry standards and best-practices, silently block your mailserver for absolutely no reason, not respond to inquiries and just generally make the internet a slightly worse place for small to medium sized businesses and selfhosters.

It’s an alternative, but IONOS honestly fucking sucks as well, so I’m feeling pretty ambivalent about this.

Most gamers don’t specifically follow gaming news or keep up with all the latest scandals (of which there are too many to keep up with in any case), but they will notice if the nostalgia project they’ve been looking forward to is suddenly gone.

None of them are right. Two thirds are looking in the wrong direction and the males facial expression is the exact opposite of the original photo.

Imagine a tool that gives you a language in which you can describe the hardware resources you want from a cloud provider. Say you want multiple different classes of servers with different sets of firewall rules. Something like Terraform allows you to put that into a text-based form, make changes to it, re-run the tool and expect resources to be created, changed and destroyed to match what you wrote down.

The guidelines for Windows developers kinda suck tbh. Maybe it’s better these days, but plenty of weird legacy software behaviour can be blamed on MSDN.

And the ability to breathe.

At this point I can only reiterate that emulation and piracy are not the same thing. I really cannot bring myself to give a shit about the ethical concerns of TOTK, when the only way Nintendo (and you apparently) has of protecting their intellectual property is to vanish perfectly legal software, through the power of being a big financial threat. I’ve been using emulators to play games since the SNES and not once have I played a video game for which I don’t own a copy (mainly because I’ve been around long enough to own all of the necessary hardware and game copies). The idea that emulation should be illegal or locked behind an arbitrary definition of console age/inactivity is completely laughable and would open the door for harassment of various open source projects at Nintendo’s whims, they won’t just stop at the WiiU era because you think that’s appropriate. The actions of one emulators development team or community being particularly unethical or locking things behind a paywall or even supporting piracy in any form, even if they annoy me and the rest of the emulation community, should not affect the emulator itself or the legality of the code. I’m not going to blame them for making themselves an obvious target, just because people have a weird affection for one of the most litigious billion-dollar companies on the planet.

Why should that change the legality of the situation? Not to mention the Nintendo Switch is already quite old and emulator development (for the most part) hasn’t lagged much behind a consoles release. Getting paid for emulator development also isn’t illegal and I don’t see why it should be. You’re trying to conflate emulation and homebrew development with piracy which doesn’t seem fair (and doesn’t even require emulation, which you’ve illustrated with your Nintendo DS example).

This leads to the same kind of erosion of free and open source software as Google taking down projects like youtube-dl on GitHub. The emulator code contains nothing illegal, neither does the developer community, but that’s exactly what Nintendo is targeting, because it’s the most effective way to shut down any project. The way Nintendo handles these cases is the problem and they have never cared if something is actually completely legal if they want it gone enough, like modding, romhacking or uploading videos of gameplay. At this point they’ve burnt so much goodwill that I’m hoestly surprised there are still people left willing to insist that Nintendo only goes after actual piracy.

This looks loke something stupid, but it doesn’t really look like KKK costumes. I could understand if your point is that even a vague resemblance might be in poor taste, but “closely resembling” seems like a stretch.

Finally someone tackles the lack of quantity in the video game market.

I wouldn’t recommend Docker for a production environment either, but there are plenty of container-based solutions that use OCI compatible images just fine and they are very widely used in production. Having said that, plenty of people run docker images in a homelab setting and they work fine. I don’t like running rootful containers under a system daemon, but calling it a giant mess doesn’t seem fair in my experience.

If I may ask: how practical is monitoring / administering rootless quadlets? I’m running rootless podman containers via systemd for home use, but splitting the single rootless user into multiple has proven to be quite the pain.

I feel like almost none of the categories of photos Frank takes have any positive implications, which does fit his character as a highly driven, reckless photojournalist. Even today, it feels like those are the kinds of photos some tabloids would publish during a zombie apocalypse. It’s not a huge loss at any rate.

It would certainly help if the GitHub code search wasn’t utter garbage.

With bluray rips, I don’t really see any way to avoid that unfortunately, unless someone else has already added the hashes for your release. Most people use it to scan their encoded releases, which will (in most cases) have already been added to AniDB by the release group. I’m a bit surprised though, that none of your rips are recognized. Have you checked the AniDB pages for your series to see if anyone uploaded hashes for bluray rips?
