I am curious how either unit would earn revenue as an independent company.
Will Android get to keep the Play Store? Does that include media? Do they charge Google to distribute the Maps app?
Will Google pay Chrome to stay the default search engine? Maybe Chrome can charge schools and libraries for ChromeOS updates?
For added security, you can make sure the proxy on the VPS only routes traffic for the correct domain using SNI. That way if someone hits your IP randomly, it only goes to your home server if the correct domain name was requested as well.
What you’re doing makes sense to me. Good luck!
It’s the right to bear arms, not the right to bare arms!
I use different types, cultivars, or alternative names for potatoes. Device names over the years have included: russet, yukon gold, ranger, marispiper, vivaldi, ratte, snowden, spud, and tater.
An app that’s like Uber or Lyft, but it only calls your friends who have cars and would be willing/able to give you a ride. It shows you how far they are (if they share location with the app) and how long it would take to get you to your destination. Based on the trip distance and current prices, it could also suggest how much you would owe if you wanted to cover their gas.
I have an inside joke with a friend who lives nearby that if she ever needs a ride she should download an app that’s like Uber but it only calls me. I think if I actually made it, she would actually put it in her rideshare folder and use it instead of forgetting to message me! So yeah if you made it and it was open source I might actually use it haha
I made a web app like this long ago! https://how2pizza.com, you could send a link out in advance of an event and then people could suggest types of pizza and vote for all the ones they liked. After all the votes, the organizer would decide how many people per pizza, and the app would tell you what to order.
The algorithm was designed to balance popular options with the needs of those with dietary restrictions. It recognizes that some folks only have a few menu options they can actually eat, and it guarantees they won’t get stuck with cheese. The way it worked is the “pickiest” people (i.e. those who only voted for one or two types of non-cheese pizza) would be guaranteed a pizza they can eat first. If the individual voted for more than one type, then the more popular option is favored. Cheese was a special case and there was logic to make sure it was only chosen after everyone got a slice of something they specifically wanted.
We used it a bunch in university for club events and stuff, and it worked great. Hopefully this is helpful and a good inspiration. Be warned about the code quality—the all hasn’t been updated in 8 years old!
If you’re curious, the main algorithm can be found here: https://github.com/ianonavy/how2pizza/blob/master/how2pizza/pizza/static/main.js
The AT protocol that Bluesky runs on is designed to address this specific limitation of ActivityPub.
I lurk in my city’s subreddit. It briefly closed as part of the protests, but the Lemmy community that was created at the time is inactive.
Not exactly the same, but I find “plug” and “socket” or “jack” to be generally more useful terms since the definitions are based on function rather than similarity to genitalia. Plugs are usually male, but always. For example, computer power supplies typically have a male jack and a female plug. In those situations, I find it more meaningful to describe the part by whether it is fixed or moves rather than which way the prongs go.
I agree, but at what cost? When the satellites burn up, they are likely worsening the hole in the ozone layer. And even if they don’t, they are probably contributing to Kessler syndrome, which could ruin low earth orbit for generations.

Adding onto what TheMrDrProf said: basically LetsEncrypt just wants to know you actually control the domain you’re using to get the certificate. With HTTP challenges, your domain has to resolve to a working HTTP server. With DNS challenges, you need API access to your DNS provider so that Certbot can set a temporary record that proves ownership.
If you’re using NPM to manage your certs, then as TheMrDrProf said as long as the HTTP request from LetsEncrypt can make it to your NPM through the VPS proxy, you should be able to pass the challenge and get a certificate. The IP address of the domain doesn’t really matter as long as the request makes it all the way to the challenge HTTP server, which in this case is NPM.
In NPM, you should see “Use a DNS challenge” option. If you use that and your DNS Provider is supported (if not, I recommend Cloudflare), then your VPS proxy does not even need to be working in order to renew certificates. This has a few advantages such as being able to shut off unencrypted traffic on port 80 completely.
Would be great if we could just take off all of August like Europe does.
Sure, but that’s just Starlink. G60 was just launched at 1200 km, which will take thousands of years. OneWeb is at a similar altitude. Both are currently much smaller in scale, of course, but still potential problems. Not to mention the impact all three systems are having on astronomy.
For Starlink, I’m much more concerned about the aluminum oxide pollution. I linked the study in my earlier comment, but this magazine article does a better lay explanation: https://universemagazine.com/en/starlink-destroys-the-ozone-layer-that-would-recover-by-2066/ The worst part for me is that we might not actually see the bulk of the effects until 30 years from now when the aluminum from hundreds of tons of burnt up satellites descends into the stratosphere where 90% of our ozone is.
