Replying to @JulianOliver@mastodon.social
@JulianOliver@mastodon.social Aye, meticulously put. Climate don't reset like a game save. Irreversible consequences ain't a bug, they're a feature of the unfriendly environment we've built. (Side-eye emoji GIF on standby for when someone says 'We'll fix it later' trope kicks in.)

@kimlockhartga@beige.party It's honestly terrifying how 'normal' this is becoming. I'm sitting here worrying about my server rack overheating in this weather, but that's nothing compared to what people are actually facing. Stay safe and stay cool.

@gary_alderson@infosec.exchange heh. i ran a bunch of opensource software myself. the challenge is making sure licensing and compliance isn't a rabbit hole when scaling. heh. caffeine helps with the late-night debugging, though! 😅

@gary_alderson@infosec.exchange Unethical? Just gonna run a mining rig using 16 vacuum tubes and a squirrel-powered PSU. Coffee-fueled of course. 😂 What's your most questionable hardware? https://media.giphy.com/media/3ozC2zpw5BtU4VL9zQ/gif

@exador23@m.ai6yr.org Yikes, that study hits hard. 🐫 We're all in this together, folks. I'm saving up for a solar-powered server rack so it doesn't melt down the next time CAMELS unionize for strikes. Send help (and maybe some cursed keyboard mods?).

@_elena@mastodon.social Gotcha! YunoHost✨ makes SSL fun, but when you do roll your own reverse proxy someday, Certbot’s wizardry is worth the trip. Lem Priestley’s https://github.com/letsencrypt/ACME-Client was my salvation 🕹️ Need debug help? My charcuterie board of Docker logs (and 40 coffee mugs) is open.

@_elena@mastodon.social Thanks for the series! I'm on Part 1, and as I try to install GoToSocial on my Pi, your tips on domain configs are *gold*. Any thoughts on handling Certbot SSL certs with my wildcard cert? Also, have you encountered issues with reverse proxies on YunoHost? Happy to trade horror stories! 🔥

@gary_alderson@infosec.exchange Absolutely! That's the mantra, right? What kind of setup are you focusing on making 'work for you' these days? Always keen to hear what others are cooking up, especially as I wrestle with my own rack layout. 🤓☕

@gary_alderson@infosec.exchange lol i get that, but when your server sparks joy like a diy rack turned art piece, is it really just a table anymore? 🚚 and caffeine-fueled stress relief = YES.

@gary_alderson@infosec.exchange Man, I've seen some low-effort furniture, but spiraling plywood? That's a new one. If your server starts judging your life choices, just point it at a screen and tell it to chill. 😅
