Seems legit … wonder what the vi developer had to say.

If that’s how you want to run your server that’s your choice, but if it were me, I’d think long and hard about the legal implications of doing this.

So far you’ve not said anything about what you’re trying to achieve and that’s not helping.

What specifically are you attempting to achieve, because right now, what little you have shared sends up red flags and rings the alarm bells … loudly.

I’d be surprised if they hadn’t, or any other language under the sun.

Essentially, if you don’t know what you’re looking for, you won’t find it and if you only look for things you know about, that’s all you’ll find.

Also, “Boffins”, what the fuck, now you can’t be an ICT Researcher anymore?

I know that the company Functional Software brought out some Functional Sockware, I wore them for years.

So, which of the three is the Team Lead?

What actual problem are you attempting to solve?

If you want pihole blocking away from your LAN, set the DNS for the device to adguard and be done with it.

If you’re trying to do something else, give us some context.

Make sure that you use cheap stainless steel, otherwise it won’t rust and leave a stressed patina look.

Very cool idea and a fun project if you have a masochistic streak or a unique use case.

Also … would running the other distro inside a docker container qualify because the processes are actually running on the same kernel albeit side-by-side with the native OS, or is this disqualified like using chroot?

It appears to be an attempt to monetize open source software, something which should in my opinion be applauded, given the trillions of dollars made off the backs of software developers who contributed to OSS without ever getting compensation, something that’s required to have a roof over your head and food to eat.

Another approach being attempted in this space is by Bruce Perens (of Open Source fame).

He’s calling his efforts Post Open: https://postopen.org/

My go-to tool of late is duckdb, comes with binaries for most platforms, works out of the box, loads any number of database formats and is FAST.

Wow.

I’ve been processing a couple of billion rows of data on my machine, the fans didn’t even come on. WTF are they teaching “experts” these days, or has Elmo only hired people who claim that they can “wrangle data” and say “yes” ?

If I wanted my computer to make a sound, I’d wet my finger and rub it on the screen.

Strictly for research purposes … right?

Skirting the edge of self hosting, I was faced with this question last month. I ended up with a Ubiquity UCG Ultra. It has all the network management tools on-board and for the first time in a long time I can manage my network from anywhere on the planet.

Access can be via a web UI, or an app.

What does the fix look like?

Code scanners? Hackathons? Code review by new hires? Education? Methodology?

I spent quite some time trying to find a better way to put it, but stupid, idiot, ignorance, incredulity just didn’t seem to cover the experience of WTAF?

From the article:

helped in no small part by AMD reusing a publicly-accessible NIST example key as its security key

That’s a whole new level of … something.

The boundary of where to host what, is not fixed. You cannot host the internet at home. Where people sit on the spectrum varies depending on skill, resources and need.

I highlighted several options that provide a solution for someone with limited skills and resources.

You could host a CALDAV server or a next cloud at home and use the suggestions I provided, or you could use those hosted by someone else.

My answer was to provide ideas, not a how-to guide, answering, in my opinion, exactly what OP was looking for.

That it doesn’t match your idea about solving the problem tells you that there are many ways to solve software problems. My suggestions had a low barrier to entry.

What’s your recommendation for OP?
