Best case is they throw their endless amount of paper at it without touching it. At least something useful comes out of this AI crap then. One can dream.

Any specific links to problems? I was planning to start a new project on it :(

Perhaps it's time to submit patches that allow building it without IPv6 instead. Countless hours of configuration meddling will be saved.

Sounds more like satire.

No they are correct, fish seems to intercept this or something like that. Only works with cat.

I don't think you can unrack a 180kg barbell with your head and just stand there like that as a 90kg male, much less untrained. That is a humongous amount of weight.

So did you ask any of them about this? These religious lunacy always seem like they are from some other planet to me haha.

What is the best hackable drone brand these days? Where you can remove all this bs remote ID and GPS disobedience?

Absolutely the same here. Same journey and same points. One added benefit is that you don't have to suffer through GH actions on GitLab as well.

They sometimes do braindead moves like prohibiting no-expiry-date access tokens but otherwise it's pretty smooth sailing.

And with recent migration to an SPA GitLab feels quicker and quicker.

The only missing piece is hiding the time something was posted :) Why would anyone use any of those crap websites is beyond me.

Agreed, this sounds like some complicated ass-backwards way to do what k8s already does. If it's too big for you, just use k3s or k0s and you will still benefit from the absolutely massive ecosystem.

But instead we go with multiple moving parts all configured independently? CoreOS, Terraform and a dependence on Vultr thing. Lol.

Never in a million years I would think it's a good idea to disable SSH access. Like why? Keys and non-standard port already bring China login attempts to like 0 a year.

It's absolutely hilarious that someone would think that this passes for API docs nowdays. Still it's good to know what to avoid on the very first glance.

It could safely be used on public internet, all this fearmongering has no basis under it.

Better question is 'does it have any actual improvements in day-to-day operations'? Because it seems like it mostly changes up some ciphering which is already very fast.

SmartGit can do that too

At least we can gather and post an actual solution in the top comment.

> Buy a cheap smart TV

Why does it have to be cheap? What if I want a killer panel without all the bs?

> Use a small "air mouse" for control

An alternative is something like 'unified remote' on it, then you can even type from your phone without any pain.

> A browser with VPN for streaming in some cases.

There is a missing piece for me here. A magic 'send my PC browser tab to this other PC connected to the TV' button. Not sure if something like this exists. It would be ideal to send all the browser context with cookies etc so that you are logged in too and can just start playing whatever you found on PC.

Any for of cast is not an option, rendering has to happen on the TV PC box.

this can be fixed by just using random ssh port

all my services are always exposed for convenience but never on a standard port (except http)

Most importantly it would actually reveal the lie they are all trying to sell. Why would you need backups if it's so useful and stable? I'm not going to ask it to nuke my hard drive after all.
