  • Almost all oft their breaking changes over the last few months were about their docker-compose setup and the simplification of the same. They’ve startend out with multiple purpose-specific (micro) containers, which turned out as a Bad design decision. These changes require manual intervention but seem to be mostly finished, so I don’t expect these to be many breaking changes in the forsseeable future.

    The better you plan ahead, the fewer breaking changes you have to impose on your users.

    I agree. From what I’ve read, they now have (published) plans for what’s ahead.


  • desec.io can be used with any domain registrar and has an API with support for various ddns clients (ddclient, lego).

    deSEC is a free DNS hosting service, designed with security in mind.

    Running on open-source software and supported by SSE, deSEC is free for everyone to use.

    Edit: To clarify, desec.io does not sell/rent domains. Desec has to be set as the authoritative nameserver on the registrar, then desec can manage domain records instead of the registrar (which usually also provides their own domain hosting for “free” by default).






  • Sadly you’re right, I’ve watched the beginning of three different ‘critiques’ on YouTube, and all of their first points are summed up by ‘oh no, it’s multiple women in major roles’. And at least one of them didn’t like that Amandla Stenberg is non-binary.

    I for one like the first episode. Especially how they made clear that the politics and public perception of them is the jedi’s utmost priority, which might help explain the downfall of the jedi order in the prequels.




  • The global IPv6 address is usually not directly reachable from the internet for incoming traffic. There’s still the router with a firewall which blocks all incoming connections, so having an IP for each device doesn’t make a difference for security.
    With IPv6 ports still have to be forwarded on consumer routers by default, the main difference is that it doesn’t have to be translated to a different IP.

    This also means I can have multiple hosts on my home network listening on the same ports, because their public IP’s are different.




  • Yes, but especially for 3D games this often leads to worse performance and bugs, since the developer still has to be able to test the build. The big reason proton is so great is that Valve is responsible for fixing games on proton, while the dev just has to support a single (Windows) build.

    Obviously some devs also fix a bug only found with proton, but it’s something they optionally do, without taking responsibility for fixing all bugs.

    If it was so simple for a game studio to release on all platforms, we’d have macOS x86 & macOS ARM builds too.
