I’m not familiar with Nextcloud, but from reading the How to use this? section of the README I believe you can run it behind a reverse proxy:

--publish 80:80 This means that port 80 of the container should get published on the host using port 80. It is used for getting valid certificates for the AIO interface if you want to use port 8443. It is not needed if you run AIO behind a web server or reverse proxy and can get removed in that case as you can simply use port 8080 for the AIO interface then.

(Emphasis mine, in “Explanation of the command”)

My understanding is you only have to forward traffic from the reverse proxy to the port 8080. It uses a self-signed certificate though, so you might check if the reverse proxy you are using checks certificates signatures for upstream servers.

It is possible, what you’re looking for is a reverse proxy: it’s an HTTP server that will listen to the standard ports for HTTP and HTTPS that will redirect traffic to the chosen service based on the domain name or URL.

In your case, every subdomain would point to your VPS’s IP and traffic that’s for mastodon.example.tld will be seemlesly proxied to your Mastodon container.

Do some research on Caddy or Nginx, and I strongly recommend you learn Docker Compose and Docker networking, it will help you make it easier to maintain everything.

PS: CNAME pointing to A record is the way to go. You can do it one better by having a CNAME entry for *.example.tld, so that you don’t have to create a CNAME entry for every new service you deploy, but you better make sure that your reverse proxy won’t proxy requests to an unexpected container when requesting a bogus subdomain.

I already did back when Microsoft announced they would drop WMR, but it was (and still is) pretty experimental, with no controller support and 6DoF requiring external tracking.

to keep Copilot off your desktop or learn Linux

For me it’s one year to keep Windows Mixed Reality working. I’m still miffed that they pulled the plug with no alternative other than putting my headset in the bin and get a new one…

Hum, I never considered this option, though a bug in the CAN bus is more likely than brake lights being out. Some Renault cars were notorious for this, but in this instance I believe it was a Volkswagen Touran.

It’s more a near-miss than an accident, but here we go:

We were coming back from holidays with my dad, he was driving and I was riding shotgun. We were on the highway (middle lane to be exact) when the car in front of us suddenly lost speed, brake lights still off. My dad was able to narrowly avoid the car, it’s frightening to think that we probably owe our life to his reaction time. To this day we have no idea what happened.

I recall that Acer laptops had a reputation of being unreliable over 10 years ago already, I’m surprised it had not improved since then.

Maybe you could deploy a blog on Netlify (which has a free tier) using one of Decap CMS’s starter templates?

RSS/ATOM has to be the best thing to come out of XML

It does for a few versions now, and even before there was at least one extension adding this feature.

It rather sounds like too little free RAM or too agressive RAM management (frequent on Chinese phones) forcing Firefox to kill the tab as soon as you leave it.

I think the “upgrade bugs” mentioned in the article are bugs happening when upgrading from previous LTS versions of Ubuntu, as usually the . 1 release is the first one to be suggested for upgrade to these installs.

24.04 was released in April, as usual. Here we’re talking about 24.04.1, which could be seen as a “Service Pack” as it includes every patches released since then.

I mostly follow blogs about development, there are so many that I actually made a page to list them

I also found this non-nonsense explanation https://www.analyticsmania.com/post/google-tag-manager-vs-google-analytics/

Google Tag Manager (often abbreviated as GTM) allows site operators to dynamically inject scripts or update tracking code without requiring a new deployment. It’s often used alongside Google Analytics for the latter.

A factory reset should be enough.

The advice given to you for reinstalling Windows is sound and should get rid of any software. Just make sure to backup any valuable data before!

As for your phone, is it an iPhone or Android?

I use Readeck which has a few extra features over Pocket and bookmarks: offline copy, sharable link to said copy, highlights, bookmarks collection and the ability to export saved articles to ebook. Oh and it’s self-hostable.

Personnaly, I mostly use it to bookmark and highlight articles I have read, with some bookmarked to read later.

What I personally do is:

1. Back up to the local server
2. Sync the repository from the local server to Backblaze B2

This way restic only has to process the data once.
