I have been contemplating moving to SearNXG for a few weeks, but I have a hard time finding whether I can configure things like domain down-ranking/blocking or custom bangs and lenses, does anyone know if you can do that on a user or instance-level?

I still don’t get why Strava activities are public by default and why they do not make their users aware of it. I remember having to rummage through the settings to make activities private by default.

If you want an experience similar to Arc without the AI nonsense, there is Zen Browser, a Firefox fork with vertical tabs, profiles and side panel.

I’m not familiar with Nextcloud, but from reading the How to use this? section of the README I believe you can run it behind a reverse proxy:

--publish 80:80 This means that port 80 of the container should get published on the host using port 80. It is used for getting valid certificates for the AIO interface if you want to use port 8443. It is not needed if you run AIO behind a web server or reverse proxy and can get removed in that case as you can simply use port 8080 for the AIO interface then.

(Emphasis mine, in “Explanation of the command”)

My understanding is you only have to forward traffic from the reverse proxy to the port 8080. It uses a self-signed certificate though, so you might check if the reverse proxy you are using checks certificates signatures for upstream servers.

It is possible, what you’re looking for is a reverse proxy: it’s an HTTP server that will listen to the standard ports for HTTP and HTTPS that will redirect traffic to the chosen service based on the domain name or URL.

In your case, every subdomain would point to your VPS’s IP and traffic that’s for mastodon.example.tld will be seemlesly proxied to your Mastodon container.

Do some research on Caddy or Nginx, and I strongly recommend you learn Docker Compose and Docker networking, it will help you make it easier to maintain everything.

PS: CNAME pointing to A record is the way to go. You can do it one better by having a CNAME entry for *.example.tld, so that you don’t have to create a CNAME entry for every new service you deploy, but you better make sure that your reverse proxy won’t proxy requests to an unexpected container when requesting a bogus subdomain.

Parents, maybe? They are usually so concerned about children’s safety, whether that’s their kids or someone else’s.

I already did back when Microsoft announced they would drop WMR, but it was (and still is) pretty experimental, with no controller support and 6DoF requiring external tracking.

to keep Copilot off your desktop or learn Linux

For me it’s one year to keep Windows Mixed Reality working. I’m still miffed that they pulled the plug with no alternative other than putting my headset in the bin and get a new one…

It will end up being analogous to Uber and Lyft, and neither helps reducing the amount of cars on the road.

Hum, I never considered this option, though a bug in the CAN bus is more likely than brake lights being out. Some Renault cars were notorious for this, but in this instance I believe it was a Volkswagen Touran.

It’s more a near-miss than an accident, but here we go:

We were coming back from holidays with my dad, he was driving and I was riding shotgun. We were on the highway (middle lane to be exact) when the car in front of us suddenly lost speed, brake lights still off. My dad was able to narrowly avoid the car, it’s frightening to think that we probably owe our life to his reaction time. To this day we have no idea what happened.

Also it doesn’t respect robots.txt (the file that tells bots whether or not a given page can be accessed) unlike most AI scrapping bots.

No you’re right, I can only buy the bundle. I was expecting the page to throw a 404.

Both Zero Dawn and Forbidden West have buttons to add to cart

Hum, they both show up to me in the EU.

Edit: on Epic Games the remaster shows up, not the original version; on Steam I can only buy the bundle with the Complete Edition and the Remaster.

It sure looks great, but I wished the trailer gave more information as to what we can expect feature-wise. The announcement blog post is pretty light on details (new graphics engine, laser scanned maps, improved physics and VR)

If you go for RAID, I would advise for software RAID rather than hardware (i.e provided by your motherboard or a physical car). Hardware RAID will lock you to the particular motherboard or RAID card, which would represent an additional hurdle when upgrading or replacing it.

I recall that Acer laptops had a reputation of being unreliable over 10 years ago already, I’m surprised it had not improved since then.

Owner of Cloud company that sells AI services tells governments that AI-powered surveillance is good.

Maybe you could deploy a blog on Netlify (which has a free tier) using one of Decap CMS’s starter templates?
