I have a couple of packages that have been marked as "out for delivery" only to be rescheduled for the next day, four days in a row. The reason is "severe weather". I understand that being valid the first, and maybe the second day...but four days?

I have a pretty simple smart thermostat without many fancy features. Every Spring and Fall I tell myself I should set up some kind of system where if the outdoor weather is good enough, maybe I dial back the heating / cooling, maybe send myself a text to open windows, etc. ...

I'm currently using Authelia to authenticate for some of my self hosted services. It works fine, but the limited user backends (ldap or... yaml??) make me want to look for an alternative. ...
I like the "supportware" term, I can apply that to a few other tools (airbyte, teleport).
I ended up setting up authentik today and it went really smoothly. So far I like it a lot, so hopefully the full enshittification process doesn't happen soon.
Even though right now I just want to use it for my own self-hosting purposes, I'm also interested in potentially using it for work. We have a few hundred thousand users and AWS cognito is getting pretty expensive.
I tried it before authelia, and it felt like an unfinished product. Nice looking, but there were weird issues, like you could create projects (or apps? i don't remember) through the UI, but then if you wanted to delete them you had to use the API.
The hierarchy of resources also didn't really feel intuitive to me. But that's just personal preference.
I've been testing out authentik today and I really like it. I like that the UI works great, but there's also a terraform provider to manage things declaratively.
No awards are needed, just wanted to share my excitement that while my Jellyfin server still keeps loosing my entire library every 24 hours at least now it has a domain and ssl cert! ...
I recently completed a project that involved a lot of deep diving into some newer k8s-related tools. I'd like to document my findings so that they may help others, but I don't know where to put them. Years ago, Medium seemed like an option, but it sucks now with all the monetization. Substack supports nazis, so not there either. ...
I have a larger than average nose. Specifically, I think the bridge of my nose is too wide. This means that most safety glasses sit up too high on my face, and leave a gap below my eyes that is unprotected. ...
I have that same problem. I found a dust mask made by ForgedAir with an integrated eye shield that fits great, but the material around the mouth and nose is not very breathable so it makes my face sweaty. If you live in a colder climate than I do, it might be a good choice.
I was going to buy a new one, but decided to try and fix it. I just had to replace a $7 capacitor, and it worked! I might still replace it anyway (maybe next year), since I hate the hum of AC fans.
Thanks! It's actually difficult to find AC fans nowadays. Most are DC. It annoys me because I have separate light and fan switches on my walls, and that doesn't work with DC fans.
I watched the first 3 episodes of this show and didn't like it at all. The plot seemed silly and the characters a bit cringy. Am I missing something? Does it get better? Am I just wrong?
I know exactly what you're talking about. I had a few of them many years ago while in college. At the time, people would use them to make sure their laptops wouldn't make sounds when turning them on during class. I'll post an update if I find them.
I hate these types of headlines. I feel like I'm doing boolean algebra every time I try to interpret them. Why do I see them so often now? Is it a form of clickbait?
House guest put my chefs knife back without drying it first (or cleaning it properly). Now I have rust on my knife and rust on my magnetic knive strip where I keep them. Even when he's gone, I keep finding gifts... I promise I will get over this, I just have to process. ...
I'm in a similar boat and was considering moving to Ireland or Chile. In the end, I couldn't overcome the immigration requirements, so I decided to just move to a better state within the US. Not sure if it's the best option, but maybe that could also improve things for you.
Thanks for the tips. I have considered selling the sawstop and other big tools, but with the current economic uncertainty, I'm worried about not being able to afford to re-buy the things I sell.
I have an idea for a product that I think it is remarkable it's not already a thing. It would be easy to make and produce, and I imagine manufacturing would be cheap, but could be sold at a decent price. ...
