I haven’t tested the spouse approval factor, but once Radicale is setup, you don’t have to do anything other than create new calendars through a caldav app, or through the web front end.

Android can use DavX to sync if you’re in to foss stuff

I pretty much only use it for tasks and a maintenance calendar, but I’ve had zero problems with it so far

All I have ever wanted from a machine is to be able to say, “I’m busy right now, but I’ve had a thought; here - hold this for me”…

…without it telling anyone me and my partner’s batting average.

All I need is for them to fix the public collection RSS feed bug where they embed “https,http” in the feed xml if you’re behind a reverse proxy - which breaks parsing

and has integration for Oxidized, smokeping, greylog and more

Well, apparently Meta’s pixel tracking script was bypassing that VM and SELinux enforcment to exfil tracking impressions for years and doing it by creating webRTC dummy ports, that were chatting with their own apps (Instagram, Facebook, ?WhatsApp?-not sure). So not sure this was a great implementation to begin with.

And this was working despite sandboxing on other browsers

Thanks for the feedback - It was a systemd issue. Something caused it to continue generating slices for espanso until the machine locked up - probably spawned with each terminal. It happened on out of date fedora install 36 (when 41 was out) with gnome on it.

Since then I’ve moved to a window manager for all my machines and would likely invoke it the same way - perhaps now it’s time to revisit!

I used eapanso for a few years, but kept running in to issues with it spawning hundreds of versions of itself.

I really miss it though. Would you say it has matured?

We’re everywhere!

And search.

Ctrl +a and Ctrl +e for beginning and end of line are from Emacs.

GNU Readline is what provides them in the bash. There’s a bunch of shortcuts worth learning in there!

Most distributions I’ve tried use Emacs as the default shell binding style, some of the bindings are even available in things like appliance cli’s like Cisco IOS and clones.

Bash supports vi mode too, you just have to switch to it.

set -o vi

ZSH uses zle (ZSH Line Editor) instead of Readline, but I assume the Emacs style bindings have been copied over to zle for muscle memory portability. You can switch the keymap in zle,

bindkey -v

or set your own!

And bleaching the reefs

Yes. But also, despite having done it literally thousands of times, I still can’t tell you which way round to put the target and the link name for a softlink on the first go.

My first guess is always

ln -s $NAME $TARGET

No amount of repetition will fix this.

Sounds like you have reason to bump it up the list now - two birds with one stone.

I need to do this too. I know I have stuff deployed that has plaintext secrets in .env or even the compose. I’ll never get time to audit everything. So the more I make the baseline deployment safe, the better.

It’s common with rootless docker/podman. Something needs to start up the services, and you’re not using a root enabled docker/podman socket, so systemd it is.

Sounds like I won’t be using Vanilla because that (obsidian + synching + tailscale) is definitely my primary need.

The last time I played with it, I just remember thinking, cool - but why?

That’s fair, there’s other angles of observation made available already.

Seeing as you like speculating about cyberpunk, how about if observation is just the initial way to way to sell the drone cloud? Depending on how cheap you can make them, there’s an argument to made for reducing time-to-intercept for low-speed aerial objects.

If you’ve got a bunch of drones overhead already, you could run one in to the path of a kamikaze drone, or if your swarm is even lightly armed, you can extend engagement range and reduce required accuracy with a single buckshot shell to shoot an offending drone down.

If you’re content to prioritize executive safety over public saftey, there’s a lot that can be done.

Drone displays terrify me.

Not to mention, the minute it happens, the government will carpet the skies with observation drones in the name of safety

Just a little piece

That’s what I was thinking, I know the pain of watching something run for ages, only to finally get past where it failed last time and run straight in to another stumbling block.

I don’t envy you having to work in an SELinux environment with less than stellar developer understanding of policies and contexts.

Is it not possible to run it in audit mode in dev and have it tell you what the would have blocked?
