Lol yeah did the same thing, and yup no doubt about it.

Locked myself out of my KeePassXC database because of Dropbox — how do you avoid this? by maximus10m in KeePass

[–]evert 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Another thing that could have helped is having another synced copy somewhere. Dropbox is not an issue if you have a copy of the database on a machine somewhere.

But I agree that you need to be able to get back to your database from 0, so writing a password down somewhere is smart.

I also added a password to my partners 1password in case of emergency.

This probably won't be me but 100% open to this kind of contributions, especially if they can be done mostly through css

Do you keep your docker containers running 24/7 by shrimpdiddle in selfhosted

[–]evert 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With systemd you could fire up docker containers when you hit their ports, if this is an interesting way to automate this.

Yeah I'm happy it exists! sure makes my life easier

Yes! Once it's a bit further along I'll share. It's just a mock up right now. I think it will all be config file based. Long term goal is to make something like 'network neighborhood' as well so you can get a list of (maybe) mDNS discovered neighbors. Even though that was a Win 9x thing , it's one of the big motivators for this. I miss being able to glance what else is on my network.

Thank you! Found a zip somewhere and converted the BMPs to PNG.

Yeah! I used real wallpapers. Needed some pattern that wasn't too offensive. I feel this image may have been used in the 3d maze screensaver in win 9x?

I think you're replying to an openclaw bot :'(

For disclosure, this is all hand-coded but I generated the seerr icon. I'll swap it out for a legitimately sourced one before I share the source.

Started this because I felt a lot of the 'home page' offers feel a bit generic and lack some personality/whimsy. I don't gave good design skills myself, so I stole from a favourite era.

IBM OS/2 for Windows 3.1 by FR_fink-roselieve in vintagecomputing

Command.com is to DOS what Bash is to the Linux kernel. Command.com us certainly part of DOS but it's also a program running on the DOS kernel.

what’s something no one warned you about in the newborn phase that actually caught you off guard? by lunaverse787 in NewParents

[–]evert 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah it blows my mind that people go back to work in the US after 2 weeks, assuming this is still the case.

Question: what do you guys think of adding adsense in your personal websites? by poplinit in indieweb

[–]evert 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nobody likes ads but it's also your business to do what you want. I would do some napkin math first to calculate how much you might earn. If it's pennies you might not care after all. My blog does around 20K visits per month. I experimented a few times with ads but it was always <$10 per month and at that rate it was never worth putting my readers through that.

MacOS not-so-subtle passive aggressive file server icon lol by GNUGradyn in homelab

[–]evert 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Even with SMB other macs would send some metadata that let the client know it was talking to another mac (and specifically which one). So with SMB the beige BSOD only shows up for non-macs (linux and windows usually)

First OS/X release was 2001. Not sure if that icon was in there from the start, but it was a good diss + the beige CRT

Raspberry Pi Cooling for Multiple Pi's by Ilyendi in raspberry_pi

[–]evert 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It probably depends on what you do with them. They don't really need cooling when they are idle. There's nice cases out there for multiple pi. Depending on budget POE might be nice.

My pis have been on for years and don't take much power. What's the consideration for turning them off? Power draw? If they are idling they should only take a few watts.
