Availability issues (lemmy.sdf.org)
 

Hi there,

I'm hosting matrix for family use on a server at my place. The issue is my home is affected by internet and electricity outages - which we're trying to fix. This means that there are frequent downtimes on the chat. I have a UPS but usually is not enough to power everything - router and server - for longer periods of time.

The internet downtime is easy to fix as my router supports fallback connection which I point to a mobile internet solution.

I've thought about moving everything to a VPS but then I'm a bit wary of privacy regarding the data there. There's also the option of moving the server to a family member's house but I want this this be last resort because that makes maintenance harder.

Anyone dealt with this issues and found a solution? Perhaps a fallback mechanism that temporarily hosts the sever on a VPS? :D

You exude vibes of someone who would've opposed the move from assembly to C ..

Developers are well aware of the risks of re-writting, and I have seen no one say Rust is bug or cve free on compile time. But you do have higher guarantees that a certain class of vulnerabilities do not exist or it is easier to narrow down where they might be. Stop spreading FUD

And before you try: nop I'm not a Rust developer

    I understand why Framework would support Hyprland as it is warts and all because, I believe, it's one of the most famous/successful projects in its domain. But Omarchy? That shit is new and unproven, there are much better distros to support.

  • Neovim security (lemmy.sdf.org)
     

    Hi,

    As one of my machines is a bit more security sensitive I've been looking into securing neovim a bit more and not having Lua code "free running" on my machine. This is mostly an experiment

    I've been happy with the (somewhat) sense of security firejail and neovim profile with no network option gives but then this all goes away once I need to run neovim with network access to update packages et al.

    So my question is: is it possible to package all that I need to run neovim (Lua code, mason installed binaries, etc) into an app image or some other format to then run under firejail? Which folders would I need besides the usual ones (.config/neovim)

    As for package updates I was thinking about doing it in my personal machine where I would then package everything and install it on the sensitive machine

    AI is not needed for any of the points you mentioned. That's just intellisense and auto complete with extra pollution and fossil fuels

    Good luck when you need to link tests with requirements and you don't know what the tests are doing

    Installed 24.04 this week. On the second day my graphical interface was completely borked. Bare in mind I only installed the usual things I need like neovim, appimage support, compilers, etc.

    I've used the same installation of Arch, Fedora and Suse on different machines for years in a row without an issue
