You do not need your fingerprint or any other biometric to use a passkey.

You do not lose access to passkeys when you lose your device.

Yes, and I do werether the recipient also knows how to use it.

So, for like, 1% of my mails.

More like: paying someone to maintain the hardware.

Anyways.

Just FYI, your mails with a provider like Proton are not E2E encrypted unless you exclusively wrote with other Proton customers (in which case I assume they are. No idea). Otherwise it’s just encrypted at rest.

I dint really see the benefit over doing it completely yourself, not even offering metadata to a provider, and also having encryption at rest, while maintaining full compatibility with mail clients 🤔

I can access my password manager via the browser from any device.

Not a VPS.

You can store Passkeys in open source password managers.

I don’t know most of my passwords, so the step to passkeys doesn’t feel like a big one. I also really like the flow of pressing Login; Bitwarden pops up a prompt without me initiating it; I press confirm. Done, logged in, and arguably more secure due to the surrounding phishing and shared secrets benefits.

We host most stuff at home, and then additionally some services at Hetzner on an (auctioned) root server. Bloody nice to get really good hardware for cheap, plus unlimited data with either 1 or 10Gbit synchronous network speed, a dedicated IPv4,…

Stuff like my mail server lives there because it HAS to be available, and doing it at home, and doing it well, is next to impossible.

I’m planning a nix hydra + cache server, which will probably also live on the Hetzner server, simply because it’ll have pretty intense jobs to run a lot of the time and I’m not a fan of having the noise of spun-up fans at home.

Both solutions have their place, is what I’m saying / agreeing.

• every VM with state backs up its state to the NAS once a day
• client devices rsync most of their home folder to the NAS once an hour
• at 3:15 in the morning, a Borg backup job starts pushing the days changes to a Hetzner storage box

Through borg, I have the Option to go back to any point in time with the backups. I will probably never need this, hence why it happens in this step, not on the rsync job to the NAS.

Things like movies and tv shows are not backed up, they are replaceable. All in all, about 2tb of documents, pictures, and VM state is backed up to Hetzner, out of the 16tb on the NAS.

Pick and choose your battles.

Yes, your links are both correct.

Yes. Completely open source (not open core) and every action happens in-browser. With Stirling, you send the doc to the server.

Also, Stirling had long-winded whining about their tracking pixel, Bento initially had something similar (but more privacy-friendly) and when asked about it immediately removed it without fuss.

No

(not the poster above)

btrfs is the only fs I’ve ever seen people have issues with, so I didn’t even want to try (though, I do recognize that that is just personal bias). I also don’t need the backup/rollback features.

Happily running xfs.

Oh, nice! And there’s even a nixpg!

Yeah. I just put the media location on my nas, and that is being mirrored to hetzner.

Over the years, we’ve made a lot of Dashboards. In the most recent iteration, I’ve been using the popular Rounded theme, plus some customizations.

I’ve also tried to get rid of as many elements as possible. 90% of entities I just do not need to see on a daily basis, or only in certain specific situations, so I’m trying to automate that (i.e. only show what I’m actually interested in).

Wow, that looks super nice! Great job!

FWIW, I went to school in mid-2000. My sibling even later. They still taught it back then, and at least here, I am pretty sure they still do. (And why would they not, after all…)

Literally noone I know in real life has any problem whatsoever reading analog clocks, no matter the “brain capacity”, neuro-typicality, state of drunkenness,… It is an extremely simple “skill”.

Yeah, vibe of the time is a good description
