In that case, based on the roughly 1.5 billion Windows users, that’ll only affect a mere 75 million users for a feature that’s been there since Windows 95.

If they were using that data, then they would have included features people actually use in 10. Or maybe they’re just doing the inverse of whatever the data suggests.


Microsoft applied a data-driven approach to find out which features to add now, which features to add later, and which to completely avoid.
WHAT DATA?!


Fuck

At one point we said the same thing about solid state drives


Thank you for this! I’ve been trying to find a NextCloud replacement for years. I personally can’t stand the database approach to managing files. So glad to see Sync-In can just add a system folder directly without having to import.


Jfc. I’m so over this timeline. If Calibri is woke, does that make Comic Sans an enemy of the state? Like what the fuck are we even doing anymore?


I wonder how they’ll present the evidence to the court


It’s been a long while since I used it and at one point I did figure out how to browse it, but I remember documentation pointing out that it’s meant to be left alone and do all your file management through NextCloud itself.
Sometimes I needed to do big file operations or drop in a chunk of data straight from the server, but it wouldn’t ingest those files unless I did a sync or upload them using the client.
Maybe things have changed, but last I used it, it was 14 services that were all sort of good when I needed the service to do one thing really well.


I constantly would get files stuck in the database that I couldn’t delete. All of the forum posts would talk about going into the database to fix it, but the whole point of NextCloud for me was to completely avoid database management.
I’ve fallen back to using DUFS or copyparty for most things since I really just needed my file store to be browsable via web in some cases.
I probably would still be using NextCloud if they didn’t obfuscate the file system.


The very rough idea is this:
I have a server with multiple services and only one open port (not counting the SSL port) on my router.
Traffic comes into that one port straight to my server. That server has a reverse proxy installed with a directory of subdomains and associated ports.
It internally routes traffic coming in on my open port to the internal services on the server without having to expose them directly to the internet.
The big advantage is that because it all goes through my reverse proxy, I can add SSL certs to just that and now all of my subdomain services get the benefits of the SSL cert on the host.
I’m sure there are other uses for reverse proxies, but this is how they work in my setup.


You made pretty much every point exactly how I was going to make it.
I will mention that even as a pretty experienced sysadmin, learning Docker, reverse proxies, and relevant config files took ages because there are treated as assumed knowledge.
Every YouTube video on Docker is 30 minutes shorter than they should be, and terminology for reverse proxies is really confusing if you’re not already familiar.
It’s great to say you shouldn’t use these if you’re not familiar, but these are also probably the most poorly taught subjects in computing right now from my experience.
If you can’t already, you’ll surely be able to find cheap knockoffs in a week’s time.


I’ve known only one person with money as a friend and the only reason they were tolerable was because they never brought it up. They were just very successful at what they did and made really good money doing it, but that was only a slice of the type of person they were.


I think there’s a couple of Bond villains with similar setups. Not sure how I feel about that, but felt it was worth mentioning.


I won’t be happy until a third of the traffic on the road is driverless zombies going to pick people up who are too lazy to drive themselves or ride a bike. And another third should be cars that are just picking up a box or two for delivery. The remaining third should be exclusively SUVs and pickups too tall to see any passengers, lest they slow down for measly walkers.
One can dream…
That is exactly what I use mine for and it does it pretty much silently.
I’ve have amazing luck with both Beelink and Minisforum computers. They’re relatively cheap and excellent quality.
I personally use the Beelink ME Mini and it’s been able to handle just fine about any server tasks I need it to, not to mention the wildly expandable storage.


I actually like Peter in the recent Spider-Man games. He’s has a day job and adult responsibilities throughout. Miles is at the tail end of high school, so you still get the teen story (but no focus on love interest!) in the MM game, but then back to a focus on adult responsibilities for SM2.
I think it has been since the show came out.
Fiction <> Reality at this point
