I saw some giant TV on LTT recently which has a DP port.

And, they highjacked referral links, ensuring they got referral commission, not the original referrer.

I'm looking forward to the Go rewrite. Purely so it's less of a pain to declaratively install, and I can work it into my workflow.

For some additional peace of mind, you could also use something like Authentik in front of your web apps, so you don't expose the apps themselves, only Authentik. You can then use the IDP of your choice within Authentik for authentication.

A perfect example of why one should use SSH over a mesh network like Tailscale, and don't expose over the public internet. No attack surface means no attack.

Unraid is nice, and pretty easy to maintain. You get a web interface and can set up auto updates. There a many different applications in their app store, too, or you can make your own using plain docker.

It's particularly strange, given NixOS is recommended in the alternate (no systemd) list. NixOS does indeed use systemd.

Even easier is to use Tailscale. Run tailscale on your laptop and server, and then access the web UI by using <tailnet_server_ip>:<port>

I love your HR comment. It's HR's literal job to interview / hire people. It's not the job of the candidate to interview for a position. Deluded, self-important lunatics.

It's in the video.

microbass | 3 years ago | on: My ADHD founder toolbox

I'm in Ireland, but have recently been diagnosed by a UK doctor as having ADHD. If you go privately, it's not a terrible process, and my local GP is willing to prescribe as my UK ADHD expert advises. Granted, medication has had no positive impact on me so far, but getting the diagnosis was pretty straightforward.

I've been using a 40 inch 4k Iiyama monitor for 6 or 7 years, and it's been great as a TV. I've told the TV license people that I don't have a TV, and they leave me alone. Well worth the cost upfront, as I haven't had to pay a stupid licence fee for years.

I signed up with a virtual Revolut card for sign up. Once my account was active, I deleted the card. They can't get any money out of me.

I love Rectangle. I have a couple of external displays, and a 25 key macro pad. I've assigned various buttons on the pad to move my windows around using Rectangle.

And, he can't say "Irish" properly.

microbass | 5 years ago | on: Who's at the Helm?

Could you please expand, with an example, if possible?

Do you have a list of them somewhere? I like having options when it comes to privacy.

microbass | 5 years ago | on: Turning the Raspberry Pi 4 into a Mini Server

I bought an 8GB M92p for €50, and a compatible 4c/8t Xeon for €20 .It makes a great little server. Of course, I also have an RPi 4 for other uses.

microbass | 5 years ago | on: Ask HN: How do you read long PDFs?

Is there any way to get files onto it, besides their cloud service?

Using this app, you can access DNS settings which are typically hidden in MIUI
