I wish people would stop recommending cloudflare in self-hosting communities

A blog post I wrote got shared there a while back, but I did not ask for an invite back then. 2 years later, and I don't feel legitimate to ask for an invite anymore
KOReader is by far better than the crappy stock firmware from Kobo. While the interface is not the prettiest, it still has a lot of advantages :
- it adds the ability to browse the filesystem (how do people use an e-reader without folders ?)
- loading medium to large PDFs takes ages in kobo's stock UI, while it's almost instant in koreader
- there are a bunch of plugins you can add to koreader
While I really hate Kobo's stock UI, I still recommend getting one if you like truly owning your hardware. It's really easy to enable ssh access and then it's just regular Linux. It's even possible to run an X server and launch Linux graphical apps on the e-ink display (not quite usable though)
Having a certificate for any subdomain has implications for other sibling domains, even without a wildcard certificate.
By default, web browsers are a lot less strict about Same Origin Policy for sibling domains, which enables a lot of web-based attacks (like CSRF and cookie stealing) if your able to hijack any subdomain
I'm currently working on upgrading a Django project that received no maintenance since 2018. I wish I knew about this when I started
The Wikipedia page says the following :
On January 28, 2015, the ACME protocol was officially submitted to the IETF for standardization.[28] On April 9, 2015, the ISRG and the Linux Foundation declared their collaboration.[9] The root and intermediate certificates were generated in the beginning of June.[29] On June 16, 2015, the final launch schedule for the service was announced, with the first certificate expected to be issued sometime in the week of July 27, 2015, followed by a limited issuance period to test security and scalability. General availability of the service was originally planned to begin sometime in the week of September 14, 2015.[30] On August 7, 2015, the launch schedule was amended to provide more time for ensuring system security and stability, with the first certificate to be issued in the week of September 7, 2015 followed by general availability in the week of November 16, 2015.[31]
So we'll have another anniversary to celebrate in nearly a year
I did not have the money to pay the insane amounts these greedy for-profit certificate authorities asked, so I only remember the pain of trying to setup my self-signed root certificate on my several devices/browsers, and then being unable to recover my private key because I went over the top with securing it.
I was exited to read about the recent surge of brute force attempts I received from IPs my fail2ban has not previously seen, but this is just a generic piece from 6 months ago :(
Thank you for the link. I've seen it posted a few days ago.
The caching proxy for this tutorial should easily work with any tile server, including self-hosted. However, I'm not sure what the benefits would be if you are already self-hosting a tile server.
Lastly, the self-hosting documentation for OpenFreeMap mentions a 300GB of storage + 4GB of RAM requirement just for serving the tiles, which is still more than I can spare
I did not expect such a detailed code review (the fact that you wrote it on mobile impresses me even more), but I strongly agree with everything you mentioned. I think I was so caught up learning GLSL and its quirks, then playing and experimenting with the simulation, that I "forgot" my coding standards. Anyway, I'll make sure to take some time to update both the code and the article following your recommandations.
Thank you for the feedback. I had a lot of fun playing with the model (and still have some improvements on my mind that might require porting it outside of Shadertoy)
Is there any part that was especially hard to understand ? I'm trying to make it as clear as possible for developers without a scientific background.
Recently, 2 different user agents started scraping my Lemmy instance at nearly the same time : AmazonBot and ClaudeBot
I wonder if (and how) it may be related to this headline
