People really need to realize, Trump is insane. He has never heard anyone tell him he was wrong, or not good enough, or not smart enough, or it was his fault. Now as a "grown man" he believes he can do no wrong. He was buddies with North Korea and Russia because he wants to know how they maintain their power and grip over this countries.

I'm scared to death that not enough peole are taking seriously that he could win again. I hope at least 1 felony will be set as guilty for him, and disqualify him, but then you've got the rest of the herd of nut-jobs that follow him right behind him.

None of these things will change the minds of the people who support Trump. Humans, sadly, have an aversion to anything that threatens their beliefs. We have a law that says a convicted felon can't vote in an election, and yet, no law to prevent that same felon from running for, and winning political office. The founding fathers, likely, never imagined a convicted felon would run for office, and even moreso that the people of this county would vote for him.

I personally think you should move the fourth bullet (express your gratitude to the maintainers) to the first position in your list. But a great, simple list none-the-less.

I have to agree with this. It’s your mom. If she isn’t hurting you, or asking you to watch them, and you have the space and bandwidth, just do it.

As much as I would love this to kick MS in the backside, it won’t. The public at large has no idea what this is or why it’s bad and evil. They will buy a computer, it will come with Windows, and they’ll use it like they always have. Companies and Govts will gripe initially, but give in because their ancient VB enterprise apps only run on Windows.

I have been using purelymail with my own domains, and at $10 a year with no limit on domains or users under those domains, it’s amazing value.

This picture makes me think of a scene from Superman 2 where Zod is in the oval office and the president is sitting to address the nation, looking defeated. Maybe I'm misremembering. I'll have to dig out my movie and see. Of course, Elon is no Zod, and Trump just looks lost. I'd bet the kid picking his nose has a higher IQ than the other 2 combined.

If you can get It’s blessing I’d suggest something like KASM workspaces or WebTops, basically a Linux desktop in the browser.

Just my opinion and experience. Setup a couple of cheap VPS instances, and setup recognition, one primary, one secondary.

For an actual NAS solution, meaning your primary goal is storage, then Rockstor, OpenMediaVault, and TrueNAS are the big open source ones I know of. I believe they can all do ZFS and RAID these days

If you’re looking for a system to host self hosted apps, that can also do ZFS storage, check out Incus Containers on a playing Ubuntu or Debian install, and use LXConsole for the UI side.

You might reach out to the open source initiative if your app is open source. They have lawyers, and may be willing to provide guidance at the very least. I’m just guessing, and don’t work for the OSI, nor know for sure whether they will or wont help in any way. Just another place to look. At the very least they may be able to suggest attorneys who might be willing to help out.

I disagree with your broad statement that SQL in general isn’t tricky to make more performant if you know what you’re doing. Worked with DBAs who have decades of experience who have gotten great help in streamlining queries and schemas from AI tools in the last couple of years.

Veloren has been a blast on my family’s self hosted system.
