Totally fair.

Another great option is Yourls. I’ve been using it for years and it’s been fabulous

Check out OliveTin. I use it in a similar fashion to track when I take my daily meds and for other personal health tracking.

It’s a simple webapp that fires off shell scripts on your server. I store my data as CSV, but you can tailor the scripts to store and retrieve/present your data however you’d like.

Edit 2: adding that I host this on a Raspberry pi zero w. It’s ultra cheap. It’s only accessible on my lan by choice. I use a wireguard tunnel on my stupid cheap (~$1.50/month) vps to access it remotely.

Edit 1: fix link formatting

Also been using namecheap for years with no complaints. Boring and dependable.

I love mealie as well. My wife and I keep all our recipes in mealie.

I’ve been working on some bash scripts to help manage my media files. I’ve been slowly working on learning more bash and I’m pretty pleased with my progress. After I finish this bash book I’m reading (can’t remember the title atm), I think I’m gonna jump into awk.

With pass, everything in the store is gpg encrypted. Unless they have your master password, getting the password_store itself will give them nothing but encrypted data blobs.

Imo pass is great for CLI password management

This. I fucking hate that it’s opt out. Every goddamn time I open Firefox and run a search I gotta disable the stupid AI bullshit.

100% this. If you self host it you control your own data and can choose to encrypt it as well.

If you want e2ee file storage look at seafile.

If you want e2ee chat go signal if you don’t want to host, matrix if you do want to self host.

Ah! Thank you! I knew it was something I screwed up!

I did verify with lsblk, with a listing before and after plugging in the stick to be absolutely sure.

I also did verify the checksum of the ISO.

I’ll double check SecureBoot, but as I mentioned, the same ISO written to the same stick with Fedora writer did boot in the same machine it wouldn’t boot from with the dd version.

I know it’s something I did or didn’t do to make it work correctly, so this is not me trying to dunk on dd, just trying to understand what I did wrong.

I just tried this the other day and was unable to boot from the USB. any chance you could shed some light on what i might have screwed up?

The command was:

dd if=fedora.iso of=/dev/sdc bs=4M status=progress

The USB stick was not mounted and the fedora image was verified. The command completed successfully but I couldn’t boot from it. When I used fedora writer to burn the same image to the same USB stick it booted no problem.

Edit: spelling

PurelyMail is what I use. It’s been great so far. I’ve been using it for over a year for this exact use case.

I don’t have it available in my extension or desktop app. I just downloaded the latest flatpak, but forgot to check versions in the flatpak and firefox extension

That’s pretty cool. I didn’t know that either. I was just reading more about it and found that you can port keys:

Import key to Bitwarden

Existing SSH keys can be imported into Bitwarden.

Select  SSH key from the navigation menu.

Copy the existing SSH key you wish to import into Bitwarden. Use the Import key from clipboard option. This will automatically paste the SSH key into Bitwarden.

The caveats:

Imported keys must be in OpenSSH or PKCS#8 format

Additionally, at this time, imported SSH keys from Putty are not compatible.

I’ve a nightly cronjob that runs backup using rsync for my local, and an external HDD that I stash in my work locker that I bring home once a week or so to connect to the server, run a backup script (more rsync), then take it back to work. It’s not super sophisticated, but it works, and I have tested and restored from both the local and offsite backups.

Recently set up OliveTin on a pi zero w for some automation scripts I wan to be able to trigger from my mobile. I’m loving it.

Everything must enshittify.

Agree. I’d be nervous about it too. Mullenweg seems pretty unhinged at this point.

You’re not wrong. Again, my logic for that the crazy person is on the warpath towards other hosting companies. For a time he had cut WPEngine off from wordpress.org, which meant thousands of regular people and business running wordpress couldn’t update their plugins or wordpress core because they had no access to the .org registries.

Mullenweg isn’t going to do that to his own company. I think Mullenweg is a piece of shit, and I would steer clear of wordpress.com. My previous comment pointing towards .com is dumb.
