Why do I use a a different email address for everything? I can just close an account once I no longer use the service or once they start getting spammy, I get next to no spam.
This is really useful and I do this too with the service / product name as the “name” (ie microsoft-mail@mydomain.tla)
It’s interesting to see how emails are sold / transferred over time…
I’ve never used XMPP because all of the clients are extremely dated.
This is what I was referring to.
Did you mean something else?

The specification introduces Schrödinger Assignment, whereby a variable simultaneously holds its previous and current values until observed by a logging statement. Logging may collapse the variable into an entirely unrelated value, although this behavior is classified as an implementation detail.
I’ve seen this in some recent troubleshooting I did, so this must be in use already
But do you have File Versioning setup on all the syncthing end points?
If so, you’ll at least get sync-conflict copies - yes, you’ll still need to fix them, but at least they won’t (shouldn’t) be totally lost.
I guess another idea is to have separate personal keepass files to help reduce the editing on a common file…? (That’s what we have)
Not quite following you there, let me see if my system helps.
I have a NAS with multiple syncthing instances (services) running:
It works fine if you ignore file ownerships and set the underlying permissions so both users (ie the group users) have write access.
But, if we’re both editing something, syncthing will nuke one of them (so I have versioning on). But for us this never happens as they’re rarely writing to those files.
“D” was actually used for “Drink Holder”
Yeah, wasn’t Bodhi Linux using it until they found no one was maintaining it / or it was very slow.
I tried it out and it had some nice visuals, but it did have some quirks
I went from Joplin to Logseq (now Logseq OG)
Joplin just didn’t click for me, but Logseq saved my life when I took on a new role at work.
I’ve not switched from the markdown to the db version, but after 3 years of almost daily notes it’s ok, but it needs a good spec machine when you’re searching across all the files
I’m just going to wave the MythTv flag and wave it around a little.
Self-built box which is under clocked to run cool with a passive CPU cooler so it’s quiet
A few Hauppage TV tuner cards to record programs and then lots of torrents stored locally as I want to download / stream once.
No issues for years, decent TV UI for TV, films and music… and it just works.
It’s just not in vogue at the moment.
Obligatory XKCD:
These are also the only Disaster Recovery manuals for when the power grid shuts down.
You’re gonna need some top-down support there.
Get some coding(& documentation?) guidelines agreed with a manager (I’d hope there were some already) and then it’s not 1:1 opinions, it’s now “Best” Practice.
But, keep it high level… rather than just going in anti-AI and having more resistance, have the structure there that enforces what you want; local variables (& no emojis for variable names), comments are / not required, etc. and then they could still use Claude, but their output would have to match what you’re after.
Good Luck
The NAS is on site, yes. It’s backed up to Hetzner - inc. it’s own /etc, /home, etc. so the NAS itself is kinda a 2-1 (2 backups, 1 offsite), but it would be a lot of rework to restore and that’s the device I’d need to recover everything else in case of a total disaster (like a house fire).
(🤔 better check the Hetzner encryption is noted in my keypass file)
I do need to get it’s config setup in Ansible though so it can be rebuilt automatically, but Ansible for single devices can be a little overkill and difficult to maintain.
Similar for my hypervisor box… damn… there goes some more evenings…
Nice philosophy.
I’m kinda in the middle ground here.
I backup “everything” from my raspberries, and just \home for laptops but for an actual disaster recovery I’d just do a clean install, get an IP address and then reinstall everything via Ansible, then drag my home data back off the NAS
But… I like that statement. I’ll use that at work.
No=one said that of Windows 8 though…
I suggest you have 2 separate physical devices.
1 - a NAS 2 - a server that you’re running everything on.
Use OMV for the NAS if you’re not technical enough / want less maintenance and just keep your data there with only a backup app installed,
On the other device pick whatever you’re comfortable with, docker is the mainstream choice, you’ll get loads of youtube / forum / lemmy support, but there’s other options of course.
The advantage to this setup is that you can backup your server and if when you f*ck up you can restore it again.
Less eggs in more baskets
And as others have said, look at your router & internet security too
Ffs (boyo)
And not using php for a webui
Just rollback to the last known good backups…
They do have backups, don’t they?!
