You could try emailing the FSF and explaining your situation. They constantly get into legal battles over licencing and care a whole lot about open source. Their opinion is certainly a lot more expert than what any of us can produce :D

That is probably something you should ask a lawyer for, not strangers on the Internet. But I think if you make the case that you already have a lot of the groundwork for the project published under GPL, you can massively reduce effort by using that, but that’ll mean the final project will be GPL licensed as well, most people would agree that’s a reasonable trade off. Just make sure it’s written somewhere, so they can’t pull a fast one on you
8TB disks are reasonable to get nowadays. Get a NAS that you can slot 6 of them in, set up parity raid and you got 40TB easily accessible, decently redundant storage. Much better than a single 40TB disk, and probably still cheaper
NixOS for my homelab that I like to tinker with, Debian as Docker host for the server people actually rely on
Amazing shitpost
Preventing unwanted state
If you install and then uninstall something, it will almost certainly leave logs, configurations and other garbage in places you don’t expect. Next time you want to use it, it isn’t the clean install you expected
🅱️rogramming language
Yeah that makes total sense, I agree
I’m not sure posting less is good for the fediverse in the long run, but thinking more is certainly needed! Good list
I raise you a 4:20h MtG Takir video essay
Look again
tbh I tbh think you’re lying, tbh
I’d rather have a 16kb/s seeder than a dead torrent
Oh Fightclub! I love that movie, I downloaded it to my Jellyfin!
AV is a bandaid for the horrible way software is handled in Windows. Linux is far from perfect, but package repositories are such a step up when it comes to security.
username… checks out?
I mostly use it because it looks nice, but I’ve found that with limited screen space, they’re actually really useful! I can have the man pages or a stack exchange open in the background, and don’t need to constantly switch back and forth
you messed up

What NFTs (and crypto in general) do is very different from a web of trust style approach
Crypto creates one source of absolute truth, the Blockchain, costly computed via consensus.
Web of trust, on the other hand, requires you to declare which accounts you trust. Via public-private key signing, you can always verify that a post is actually made by a specific person, and if you trust that person (e.g. because you’ve met them before and exchanged keys), you know it’s legit. You can then extend that system by also trusting accounts your trusted accounts verified, etc
For me it’s probably the way I self-host overleaf, a online LaTeX editor. The community version has a docker image that’s horribly maintained (because they want to sell enterprise, I reckon), and instead relies on a horrendous amalgamation of setup scripts that wrap docker compose.
What I have is a Dockerfile that pulls the image, manually installs a second version of TeX with the right dependencies, unlinks the old one and links the second one. Then for the database, it uses Mongo replsets, which be to be manually initialized. So I wrote a health check for the container that checks if the repl set is initialized, and if that fails the health check initializes it.
It’s horrendous, it’s disgusting, and it’s an all-in-one compose file to get overleaf running. Good enough.
