Reminds me of this:

Last time this was posted, the some answers said it’s actually likely a nest (funnel web spider or something?) and the “dead spider” shed skin.

So the metaphor for capitalism is… The Rich carry on eating the produce of the Poor, while the socialists look on and think the system is dying? Haha! Checkmate Poors!

Colonel Linux and his army of daemons!

I had no idea this was a thing. Thank you!

It’s the canonical choice

Aw, cheer up; someone will apply you in thirty to forty years.

The real problem these days is with intensive almond farming. Almond tastes better from free range almonds, with space to graze in peace and calm between the bushes.

Have you heard of “bitter almonds”? Turns up in mystery novels. It’s what you get from caged almonds raised on steroids.

Cabbages are actually tree trunks

Raspberries are actually tubers

Wheat is actually a berry

And oranges are actually an eldritch, ante-dimensional horror perpetrated by intelligent, unseen beings

Also acorns are the progenitors of oranges.

I recommend grating cheese over your fries before warming them up!

Meanwhile women are hand-coding in assembly, like God intended.

Oh yes please. But not JavaScript. I use Rust frameworks to avoid all three!

I can’t see from this article whether “could cost” means there are lawsuits ongoing/pending, or just the author has speculated what the fine could be if there were a lawsuit?

Umbrella is for UnrealScript

Van is for VimScript

Water is for Webassembly

Xylophone is for Xod

Yacht is for YASS

Zulu is for Zig

Okay, I had to consult Wikipedia’s list of programming languages for some of those.

Thanks!

Does this really need docker, if it’s all in-browser? Ultimately, is it just served as files from your self-hosted server and the client browser does the magic?

Yep. It’s on the TODO list…

You can do that? On ordinary, non-rooted Android?

I use Nebula. It’s lightweight, well-engineered and fully under your control. But you do need a computer with a fixed IP and accessible port. (E.g. a cheap VPS)

You can also use “managed nebula” if you want to enjoy the same risk of the control point of your network depending on a new business ;-)

Tailscale is great. The principle concern to me is that your super easy mesh network depends on Tailscale so if they want it they have control, and if they change their pricing or options you depend on them, and though they can’t see the data you send they can see the topology of your network and where all your computers/devices are.

I use Nebula, which is more work to set up and doesn’t have some of the features, not But if you slap the ‘lighthouse’ (administrating node) on a cheap VPS it works great. And it has some advantages. But Nebula also troubles me: though it’s fully open source and fully in your control, the documentation isn’t great. Instead, you can now get “managed nebula”, which puts you in the same problem as Tailscale: the company sees and controls your network topology. I fear the company (Defined Networking) is trying to push things that way. Even their android app you can’t fully configure unless you use their ‘managed’ service.

For now, Nebula is great, and my preferred mesh network (I looked into all the main ones). And for Tailscale you can run the administration server yourself with Headscale and be fully in your control.

Actually I wish Tailscale the best as a profitable business. They’ve created a fantastic service and system. But for me, I’d rather my network be in my own hands and for my own eyes. And, as is OP’s main point, once they have enough dependent users, the service might turn much worse.

I think that’s because both work on Android by being a VPN, and the system can’t handle doing two vpns simultaneously
