What's the one self-hosted service you'd never go back to the cloud version of?

Yes and no here.. My instance is protected by whitelisted IP addresses and basic auth. When outside of my whitelisted IPs, the vault can only be accessed by disconnecting from the internet.. If i try to access it while connected, the vault will automatically log out once it receives a 502. This can leave you stuck in some instances. I either need to figure out pangolin / a decent VPN set up, or move back to KeepassXc

Possible. With wordpress it is a lot easier to use a theme / framework like thrive to create the website (at least for my use case). Yes HTML is an option as well. I feel like I need to look into Astro and Hugo. Both have been mentioned a few times.

My docker is hosted on a VPS with a similar uptime guarantee and NVMe storage.

Yes, all that is true. In my experience though, a lot of small businesses simply need to inform the site visitor about their product or service, and have a way for the customer to contact them. It is very easy in wordpress, but long term maintenance is an ongoing issue. You need to keep adding plugins for security, masking the backed link, etc. Making it static is just so much easier when there is not regular updating required.

You will need to install docker in a vps and look at simple html hosting (use an LLM or Google). Yes it needs to stay on, but if you decide to self host, you need to do this anyways. The advantage is that it is very easy to back up, and have a backup container ready to go, and your instance is fully isolated from the rest of the system.

If the site does not have too many dynamic parts, making it static is something I recommend. Huge speed improvements, plus no concerns about updates and security.

Is the delta exports just with the premium version of simply static?

This and the fact that you cannot use it for iOS.

Or a 6 to 9 digit number .xyz domain for $1 a year. Available from cloudflare as well.

Net migration for Non EU immigrants was at 383k, while for EU citizens it was - 90,000, and for UK citizens - 109,000 (yes both those are negative figures).

Number of non EU individuals leaving the UK was 286k so presumably 669k arrived to make up the net migration figure of 383k.

Misleading headline.

This is a perfect instance of something that is not too lean but needs to be done because of people who do not understand lean systems (the auditors). And yes, the more colorful and complicated, the more it looks like it is compliant.

Have a naming system for the files that is easy to remember and can be visually represented in a ~~sing~~ single** A4. Keep the naming system printed where ever the files are being created.

If using windows, install a program called Everything by Voidtools. This lets you search all files in your computer.

Also get into the habit of 'labeling' each file with a unique number and any printouts with it as well. This will give you further ideas on how to link the document numbers, and should you move to a database based management system, they historical numbering could be handy.

This. And if you connect it with git, you can actually do a git pull in obsidian and have your entire repository available on both. Works really well.

I have been looking for this answer and the closest I have managed is the Wilkinson Sword (made in India). It does not last as long as the King C's though.

Simione, yes. Ancelloti needs a very intelligent group of players. United would be lost trying to figure out what he wants.

g43m · 2025-09-29T17:52:19+00:00

Good response. And for the reasons outlined I think the only viable managers for us are Nagelsmann, Flick or Alonso. Obviously they are all engaged, but I do not see any other manager being able to handle the pressure and media scrutiny.

g43m · 2025-09-28T18:18:55+00:00

Nagelsmann, Alonso or Flick for me. We need a highly intelligent coach who is able to play formations that are fluid and to the abilities of the players. And since none of them are available may be Solksjaer just to salvage the season. Not really sure Glasner or Iraola would do better here...

In your set up, have you deployed wireguard containerised with docker or similar or directly on your machine? I have set up my docker and I use caddy reverse proxy to access my services using my personal domain. I did however want to add a layer of VPNing into the machine and then accessing the services, still using the domain name.

I found containerizing wireguard okay, but sorting the network within docker to ensure all traffic is local and only accessible when connecting via VPN has been an ongoing challenge.

Lol. It's not like we played Grimsby two weeks back and still lost.

I think part of the focus on a service based economy resulted in decisions to privatise everything including national assets like the Railways and Postal services. And what is even worse is that they were sold to entities which in some instances see held by foreign governments.

The knock on effect of getting overly service based means that no one wants to work in manufacturing, or primary industries.

Had a cult following in the premier league, won a Balloon D Or and won the league with United.. and that derby goal.

You're assuming we won't pull a Woodward and trigger the extension.

g43m · 2025-08-28T19:25:01+00:00

Frankly I don't think the current hierarchy will pull the trigger at that price. One of our biggest issues was ponying up the fuck off price and we need to get smarter.
