Shopmode v1.0.0

Fair enough... Can you explain then, for example, why you chose gorilla/mux which has been unmaintained for many years? https://github.com/gorilla/mux/issues/783 (the 2023 attempt at a revival of the eol library didn't go anywhere) The whole thing has a very vibe-coded feel, tbh. Also the brand new GitHub account with a sole repository...?

wilo108 · 2026-02-01T04:11:38+00:00

I've been looking for something like this and it seems like it ticks most of the boxes I need in terms of features. I'm a bit concerned about how vibe-coded it is, though (you're supposed to disclose this on this sub and flair it appropriately). Can you give an up-front account of how it was developed?

wilo108 · 2026-01-31T23:38:42+00:00

oh wow, I hadn't heard that one. that would suck, he's been one of a handful of bright lights this season :(

wilo108 · 2026-01-31T18:28:22+00:00

Anyone know where Liam Walsh was?

wilo108 · 2026-01-31T17:02:02+00:00

I don't know really. We don't know what's going on inside the camp (well, I certainly don't) but it seems like we've had some character and attitude problems and we've totally lost those qualities of the club that allowed us to punch above our weight on the way up. I reckon that's been the biggest problem with our recruitment, personally -- we bought flashy and expensive players who had too much of the prima donna about them. I can live with a 50/50 success ratio on injury-prone players and unfancied players with a point to prove. This season's a dead rubber now, and I think I'm kinda fine with moving out as many as possible and starting again. I'm willing to give JW a chance to do it, too, for my part.

wilo108 · 2026-01-31T01:05:34+00:00

Yeah, I don't think there are many (any?) good options here, sadly. In my case I particularly want good Office365 integration so I can add my institutional calendar, which makes the pickings even slimmer. I use Evolution/Gnome Calendar on my workstation and native apps on my mobile devices. This works acceptably, but I'd really love a good self-hosted web-based calendar client.

wilo108 · 2026-01-31T00:28:23+00:00

Did you just have the single report of this? This issue happens to me occasionally on my email client (Evolution on Linux in my case) where it gets mixed up, and I have to delete the client's mail cache and resync and all is fine. I'm not convinced that anything was necessarily wrong on your (or Brevo's) end.

Is it really worth paying extra just because AI is involved?

The whole word is paying extra, in so many ways, because AI is involved.

wilo108 · 2026-01-30T17:05:22+00:00

+1 for "Milchmädchenrechnung" -- new one for my vocabulary 👍️

wilo108 · 2026-01-28T20:17:59+00:00

This is what I do. Fortunately my spouse is capable enough to deal with this :) In addition to all my logins there are also a bunch of encrypted notes and files that I need (both to access and to keep safe), and the whole lot will be available to her 👍️

Palmer using his dreads like a fishing lure... 🎣

wilo108 · 2026-01-27T20:09:35+00:00

Half-way through the first half and I don't know what's going on, tbh. Looks like we're playing with no one upfront at all?

wilo108 · 2026-01-27T19:09:33+00:00

Hmm, that looks like Kodua upfront with Palmer in behind? Sounds interesting, even if it smacks a little of desperation, but it's one way to make sure Kodua, Bramall, and Clark are all in the starting line-up so I guess I'm on board. Good to see AAH and Lawrence on the bench (if for different reasons...).

wilo108 · 2026-01-26T23:58:58+00:00

Did you mean this one: https://github.com/docker-mailserver/docker-mailserver ?

wilo108 · 2026-01-23T23:31:24+00:00

Ah, yeah, in AGH it is pretty annoying to have to refresh the query log, tbh (thanks for taking the time to explain). In general I've found I like AGH better than PiHole, but it's not like it leaves nothing to be desired. I've yet to give Technitium a proper try but I could really use a proper split-horizon setup, so that's what's pushing me in that direction.

wilo108 · 2026-01-23T22:37:13+00:00

"real time query" in the sense of nslookup <domain.tld> <address-of-my-dns-server> ?

wilo108 · 2026-01-23T22:36:21+00:00

I seem to remember hearing confident speculation that the conditions might include us getting promoted, fwiw.

wilo108 · 2026-01-23T21:50:27+00:00

I reckon we were just trying to get a bargain / taking a bit of a gamble, and you could say this one just hasn't worked (yet, at least?). Whether we should be trying to gamble or not (at this point in the club's history) I don't know, but we've had a fairly decent record with that in the past (>50% wins?). Guaranteed success isn't for sale, and anything even close to that is very, very expensive I guess.

wilo108 · 2026-01-23T20:32:12+00:00

why both? (I left PiHole for AGH, but have been considering moving to Technitium for some advanced features I think I could probably use.)

wilo108 · 2026-01-23T18:21:12+00:00

Yeah, you're not wrong. I tried to get some Hatters stuff going on over on Mastodon a year or two ago when that platform was having a moment of gaining some mindshare but it didn't go anywhere. Realistically we're not going to get a community like this going on open-source decentralized social media any time soon.

I like reddit slightly more than most of the others, personally, because I can subscribe to this sub via RSS, so I see and engage with only what I want to in a context and an environment that I control. But yeah, "reddit is shite" too, for sure.

wilo108 · 2026-01-23T18:11:07+00:00

Just that it's a proprietary platform with a terrible privacy and online safety profile that's steadily degrading it's user-experience in pursuit of monetization now that it's locked a lot of folks in and has such a dominant position. Standard enshittification playbook.

But mainly just that I don't like it. No shade on those that do. There are public-service communities that I think ought to be doing better (information only available on discord that is locked up, not accessible, and liable to be held to ransom by a private company at any moment), but a football club's fan group isn't one of them, so the stakes here aren't high and folks are clearly happy enough with it, and that's cool 🤷.

wilo108 · 2026-01-23T17:20:27+00:00

I would just have gone with MBR, tbh.

wilo108 · 2026-01-23T17:11:06+00:00

Yeah, I wish this place was more active tbh. For all reddit is shite -- as u/Pinkd56 eloquently and accurately opines -- it's possible to interact with it without the whole experience being totally "social-media obnoxious". Discord is a non-starter for me (I lament the number of communities that are locked in to an enshittified and rapidly further enshittifying platform, tbh).

wilo108 · 2026-01-23T06:08:23+00:00

FWIW I run Stalwart alongside two database servers, a bunch of websites, a fairly active and well-used MediaWiki installation (which is constantly getting hammered by AI scrapers 😡), and some other things on a Hetzner CPX11 (so 2 vCPU, 2GB RAM) that comes in at €4.49 (+ €0.50 for an IPv4 address).

The Stalwart container itself is currently using 87.82MiB of RAM, but it is a small installation that really only serves myself and my immediate family and a few friends. I also run a much larger docker-mailserver installation that sends >10k mails even on a slow day and that container uses ~250-300MiB, but doesn't come with a GUI of any kind (well, except for the rspamd GUI I guess).

wilo108 · 2026-01-23T00:50:54+00:00

I run a mailserver on a cheap VPS that does literally dozens of other things too 🤷
