Dark web should really be called dark or overlay Internet.
All dark “web” browser use the same rendering engines and same spec as regular ones.
- Comment on Microsoft has gone too far: including a Game Pass ad in the Settings app ushers in a whole new age of ridiculous over-advertising 4 months ago:
Saying Linux is for sysadmins (or similar) is lukę saying Framework Laptop is only for repair technicians.
- Comment on Is Conduit (Matrix server) sustainable, do some of you host it? 4 months ago:
Yes, your server needs to be full domain name. Otherwise, when typing a username (like @myusername:myserver.com) other servers would need to know where that myserver.com is.
Conduit needs to know it’s domain Because it is part of usernames.
- Comment on Is Conduit (Matrix server) sustainable, do some of you host it? 4 months ago:
Only for yourself or so you share?
If share, please say how well it use the disk.
- Comment on Is Conduit (Matrix server) sustainable, do some of you host it? 4 months ago:
No problem.
Overall, purely technically, no. This has to be the hostname of the computer the Conduit is running on. And it can be in the local network (LAN) with your own name.
But practically, yes. Because you must buy a domain name and point that domain to the server localtion (IP address). And the only global domain names available to register have TLDs :).
So, yes.

- Comment on How to sync Akregator across devices? 6 months ago:
You can sync their data folders with Syncthing. This is a program that let’s you sync folders on two computers in the background.
But you don’t want to run Akregaotr on both of them at the same time to avoid conflicts, because it is not adopted to be synced. If want program that is made for sync you propably need to selfhost FreshRSS or similar.
- Comment on Syncthing ... where are the users? 6 months ago:
Syncthing is not a cloud storage or tool for sharing. It can be used like this on a stretch, but it’s a continuous two-way synchronization tool.
I portrait it like this: select a folder on one device, select a folder on second device, Syncthing would keep their content synced as if there were one folder :).
This is in contrast to Nextcloud that needs central location and user, to rsync that is oneshot and not two-way. - Comment on The Immich core team goes full-time | Immich 6 months ago:
I love it. The only thing keeping me from switching is two-way sync. Or at least make apps updates edited photos.
I keep photos of the current year on my phone and all photos on my computer. That’s because I want to edit them or use. Unfortunetly Immich currently is typical black hole, where I am expected to download file from cloud manually, then edit, then delete original, then patch creation date and then upload it again.

- Comment on How much maintenance do you find your self-hosting involves? 6 months ago:
I spend a huge amount of time configuring and setting up stuff as it’s my biggest hobby. But I got good enough that when I set something up it can stay for months without any mainainence. Most I do for keeping it up is adding more storage if it turn out to be used more than planned.
- Comment on Net neutrality is about to make a comeback 6 months ago:
As long as their internet can accept incoming connections 🤷. Something something end of available IPv4 addresses and years of putting customers behind layers of NAT.
- Comment on What a TikTok Ban Would Mean for the U.S. Defense of an Open Internet 6 months ago:

- Comment on Framework won’t be just a laptop company anymore 6 months ago:
We can say that for any kind of drivers needed to run a mobile phone.\ Manufacturers of components are less and less providing any documentation, just throw a binary blob and say “put it in your Android build”.
- Comment on Framework won’t be just a laptop company anymore 6 months ago:
A reminder that if something can run Android or ChromeOS doesn’t mean drivers would be available for Linux. And usually they aren’t.
- Comment on Framework won’t be just a laptop company anymore 6 months ago:
Linux can run Android apps since we have Waydroid too and it’s universal, no need for single device - single OS nonsense.
- Comment on Windows 10 will start pushing users to use Microsoft accounts. How to turn it off. 6 months ago:
Oh, oh, yes shut up. We already know some apps are available only for certain platforms and have different set of supported drivers.
Why have the same arguments over and over. If the only disadvantage of the clearly better thing is popularity, then don’t shut up people taking time questionably promoting it.
