Being great is much different from being rich/easy/fun

Greatness stems from ethics and values, the values that america was and is based upon are lying, slaughter, bullying and selfishness.

America can never be great. The ground you walk on is held by the blood and bones of the true owners of that land, and millions of others who america slaughtered and is stil slaughtering for it's own "freedom" (which doesn't exist)

Making a simple, clean website with an ssg (like zola) with only HTML+CSS is an art of engineering imo.

If you want to make a giant website with lots of interactivity tho, I highly recomment nuxt. Much much better than next

Gammastep's last commiyt is also from 2 years ago. Seems unmaintained to me.

 

Hi Redshift isn't maintained anymore and lately redshift-gtk doesnt start anymore (something about a python circular dependancy).

What should we use?

Wayland is so much worse than X11currently,IMO. Specially on older devices.

I don't understand the forcing of wayland upon users.

The open source client doesn't mean jack shit dude. Telegram also has open source client. Your data lives on their servers not clients and also, even if the server code is open source, there are many ways for a backdoor and violations of privacy in the infrastructure. When you give up your phone number, there is no privacy.

Matrix is great, you can use another instance though.

Hi guys.

I have an android head unit for my car that only manages multimedia, navigation and stuff. it also has multiple physical buttons and knobs. It’s offbrand so can name the particular brand or model.

can I for example upgrade the OS?

Hi everybody. I have a rooted phone and I was thinking, If I can spin up something like Samsung DEX on my phone, alongside my android, that uses Linux, I can do 80% of my work just with my phone. Is that doable? Can someone provide me with more information?

 

Hi guys. I want to deploy focalboard as a replacement for trello in our company, my confusion is : How can I manage the focalboard instance? (Doccker) For example manage boards, manage users, limit user access so anyone from the web can't just register and use our instance.

I asked in the mattermost groups but the support groups are totally dead. No response.

 

Hi guys. So I'm wondering, is it safe(privacy wise) to integrate my google account into my GNOME desktop, only giving mail and calendar permissions to it? It's nice to have my calendar events into my top bar. (Please give technical answers)

How to monetize services? (programming.dev)
submitted 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) by somegeek@programming.dev to c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
 

Hi guys. how can I monetize my rustdesk servers? like, imagine I tell client X to pay 1$/month for using my server, how can I authenticate users? (prevent others from using the server so only people who are paying can use).

CONTEXT: I live in a country with very limited internet (like china) so using public servers is not good. I would also have to be able to maintain the costs of the server. so this is not illegal and not unethical.
