Yeah, but if your dream second hand laptop has everything but USB-C charging, you can easily get such adapter and basically make it USB-C charging capable. 😉

About the last bit: There are these now. Available for all usual laptop plugs and voltages. Much easier to carry with you than a separate AC brick.

Be aware that some countries make you liable for what people post on your forum.

Also, have you looked at Discourse? There are some nice apps that work with it and make the experience on mobile slightly better.

If I interpret this toot correctly, there wasn’t a direct commit from a sanctioned region, but one developer was in one of those regions for a short while quite some time ago. And he may have been flagged because of this.

If you have battery drain, make sure you’ve disabled the option to regularly wake up and do some background processing (check for emails, sync photos, etc.). Settings → Battery → Options… → Wake for network access. (Or search for “Power Nap” in the System Sertings dialog.)

No need to use pmset for that.

Ubuntu. Or, get a Mac - which is even more “boring”.

You shouldn’t just “drop bash commands into it” anyways. And if you really need it, bash is only one bash away.

By now, enough people have fish that you can basically assume those scripts being “portable”. Far better than nushell or xonsh - which are both pretty advanced shells but other tools lack support for them, e.g. Midnight Commander.

I’m using fish and the default is enough for anybody. 😁

What purpose should this fulfil? If you are unsure whether your command is correct, double-check it before hitting the ENTER key.

I might rename them. So, e.g. if I’d add another Pi5, the existing one would become rpi5-1 and the new one rpi5-2.

Wait until I tell you about all the small issues this zoo of devices brings with it… haha.

That one was called just rpi.domain.com, but didn’t stand the test of time…

MacBook Pro: mbp.domain.com
Raspberry Pi 2: rpi2.domain.com
Raspberry Pi 3: rpi3.domain.com
Raspberry Pi 4: rpi4.domain.com
Raspberry Pi 5: rpi5.domain.com
(Yes, I have one of each.)
Synology DS415+: ds415.domain.com
Phone: iphone.domain.com
Watch: watch.domain.com
AppleTV: appletv.domain.com
Nintendo Switch: switch.domain.com

Unless you’re using outdated server software, there’s nothing inherently insecure with exposing ports to the Internet. Be it port 80 or 443. Just keep everything up to date and maybe add fail2ban to stop people poking around.

+1 for INWX

Zabbix. It has native HTTP items and can do JavaScript and JSON processing on whatever comes back. All configurable via GUI.

The xxx3 seems to be a slightly upgraded version that adds a colour LCD and USB charging ports. Apart from that, it seems to have the same features as the one without the 3. And the -R seems to indicate a “restored”/“refurbished” model.

Did you configure NAT to the service(s) and/or DMZ to your internal server in your ISP’s router?

Not allowing even ping seems like it is against any sane networking configuration.

Hmm… I remember buying the license for ST2 back in the days and it specifically saying it’s for ST2.x only. However, it also worked for early ST3 versions but stopped working at some point. Which was when I’ve switched to something else.
