I don’t remember if it did when I used it. Our convention was to -2 your own change until it was ready to go 😅

Yeah, pretty interesting. I’m excited for this application of AI.. it will help a lot!

I saw this post in my mind’s eye. It was only a matter of time

It’s true. You can already see some smoke in this picture. About an hour later it started to become much worse.

There are fires in Oregon to the south, and fires in Canada to the north. Someone said we were likely seeing smoke from the South today, but maybe a bit of both, and since winds died down it just settled in the valley. It’s obscured views through the afternoon and into the night. Hopefully clears up by morning

Correct! This was actually not the summit, but a few bluffs west of there. Anyone who wants to get here should take the mirror lake trail and follow signs for Tom, Dick, and Harry.

At this particular spot was a rounded out rock which made for the comfiest natural seating I’ve come across yet! 😁

Yeah, duly noted. I want to avoid ever plugging a usb device into some wall - mounted usb plug.

I’m looking at picking up some “brick” chargers - the type that usually come with a phone (at least in the past).

I already have a power bank that I plan on bringing - it’s a bit older tech, But it still boasts a large battery bank and I’m hoping it’ll work for the pocket Wi-Fi and phone during the day.

Sweet! I figured they wouldn’t be too hard to find.

Putting a power strip behind an adapter is an interesting idea though, I will have to think about that. Might be nice for the extra range etc.

Thanks for your feedback!

USB outlet plugs in Japan (programming.dev)

Hey !Japan,

I’ll be visiting this country for the first time in a few weeks. I know Japan uses different wall outlets than my country, so I was debating about buying adapters, or waiting and buying USB plugs when I get there.

All of my devices can be charged by either USB A or C, and I was wondering if anyone could share their recommendations in this regard.

Is it easy to walk in to any convenience or electronics store and pick up a couple chargers for cheap? Would you recommend this over buying some travel adapters ahead of time?

I’m a huge repost fan \m/

If you want you can install starship, which provides a lot of the nifty prompt customization I see in other people's zsh configs. I've been using it with bash for a few months now and like it a lot.

I'll figure out something, I always do, I just thought it would be nice to see what route others have taken with their own servers.

Yeah for sure. Sorry I don't have a good answer

turned their email over to Microsoft and we've had nothing but non-stop spam, phishing attacks, outages, and the constant push of "oh if you're not going to use a Microsoft product.

Just wanna share that my experience does not mirror this. I pay them $6/ user per month (which is just me, for me personally, to be fair), which gets me that hosted exchange server 365 thing. I only rarely, if ever, need to use the other office products, and I do so in my browser. In the 2ish years so far I've had no complaints. I don't require any of the features that are locked behind full-installation variants of their products - and besides that I've had no problem with spam email especially.

Im not sure I would recommend that you tell your friends to authenticate with your own Active directory instance necessarily, but ultimately at the end of the day if you're dealing with users you'll need some kind of authentication layer (imo)

[–] sf1tzp@programming.dev 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Oof yeah. You’re well into admin territory here.

I mean I’m just some layman on the internet, but I would look at tying in some authentication layer to get your 2FA, although it would inconvenience your users users.

Do your users use this service for srs business?

I don’t know if I have anything else to add to this discussion. It’s gotten more complex than what “just an email server” can provide imo

I would say white-list instead of black-list if possible.

Beside the point, have you considered the reasons why you might not want to run your own email server in todays age? It’s a fun experience for sure, but if you want it for serious use it’s not for the faint of heart (unfortunately).

Edit: also lol to your friend unknowingly conducting a spam campaign from your server
