Mostly the uutils.
- MIT license isn't nice.
- They have way more CVEs than the core utils they replace.
- They don't have feature parity yet, so if you use some rare flags in your scripts, those will break.

Thats great and all, but completely non-actionable.
Tell me instead - what exactly should I do?
(should have mentioned that I already have a pinephone and grapheneOS on a GOOGLE pixel)

tldw:
- more CVEs than the old core utils that have been tested and in prod for over 30years
- no feature parity, so existing stuff that uses them will suddenly misbehave, when certain flags are missing
- different license, MIT instead of copyleft, so it's more friendly for companies to use it for profit, while abusing the work of volunteer contributors
Depending on where you live, going to IT events and conferences to connect to people in person is even more powerful. Ask them about their work and talk passionately about related stuff that you have some knowledge/skill in. Exchange contacts, say you're looking for work.
For example, next month is DEVWORLD in amsterdam. They always give away free tickets close to the start of the event. I'm sure there are a ton more like this around the world.
As for writing applications: For me writing very high quality applications did the trick.
- only apply to companies/positions that you are REALLY interested in
- research the position
- research the company
- if you can find somebody that works there in a similar position, ask them some questions
- use the info you gathered to show interest in your appplication
- write everything yourself, no AI writing. Be a genuine human.
- But you can use AI to give it the position and your application and tell it to make a hiring decision with pro/con arguments and rework it based on that
- make a small demo project that shows off your relevant skills and tell them about the challanges you had and what you learned to overcome them
(About the last point: I found that talking about relevant hobby projects I did and showing the code made a huge difference)
It usually takes me about a week to write one such application. But I only sent out 3 before hearing back from 2 of the companies and getting signed on by one.
I know it's a lot more hoops then just clicking "auto apply" or "apply with AI", but the effort pays off.
Contrary to that I often see people complaining online about how they wrote 100 applications in a month and got no job interviews... yeah buddy. (And I was initially one of those people)
Also netcup has really good deals during the winter holidays
The problem could be anywhere in between the internet and your server.
Ofc. it could be your routet. But I think the following is more likely:
It might also be your internet service provider that doesn't allow those ports for inbound connections.
Or you're behind a CGNAT so your real external ip is different from the one you think it is. (look up online how to test this)
Sounds good.
Hmm next you probably should confirm ports 80 and 443 are actually reachable from the internet.
Use an online port checker like https://canyouseeme.org/
After that you should check your apache config like somebody else already suggested. I haven't used apache in a while but if I remember correctly:
Ensure it says: Listen 80 NOT: Listen 127.0.0.1:80
(and same with 443)
Also check your VirtualHost — it should look something like:
<VirtualHost *:80> ServerName yourdomain.com DocumentRoot /var/www/wordpress # ... other settings </VirtualHost>(and same with 443)
Njalla's default TTL for DNS records is 3600 seconds (1 hour). If you just created or modified the A record, it can take up to that full hour for the change to propagate across the internet, which would perfectly explain why Certbot is connecting to the right IP but failing to fetch the file (the request might be hitting an old IP or a cached null response).
Before changing any more configurations, you should verify what the rest of the internet is actually seeing for your domain right now.
Check the current DNS record
You can use
digto see exactly what IP your domain is resolving to, and importantly, the remaining TTL on that record.From your local machine (or any computer), run:
bash
dig yourdomain.com +noall +answerThis will output something like:
text
yourdomain.com. 3412 IN A 203.0.113.45The second column (
3412) is the remaining TTL in seconds. If that number is counting down from 3600, the record is still propagating. If the IP address shown there doesn't match your server's current public IP, the change hasn't taken effect yet for that DNS server.Check from a different perspective
To ensure it's not just your local ISP or router cache serving an old record, query an external public DNS server directly:
bash
dig yourdomain.com @1.1.1.1 +noall +answer dig yourdomain.com @8.8.8.8 +noall +answerIf these external servers show the correct IP but Certbot still fails, the DNS is fine, and the problem is somewhere in your network routing or web server config. If they show a wrong IP or no record at all, you simply need to wait for the TTL to expire.
nothing to do with guitar, but this is my favourite thing to toy around with.
I discovered it through this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iu5rnQkfO6M
There is no "stealing" when we talk about digital goods, as copying files is virtually free of cost (just a littld bit of electricity).
So if the file gets duplicated and you get the copy you stole nothing.
Here you go:
Everything should be documented there
https://git.sr.ht/~deckweiss/x11_activity_session
It probably can be adopted to wayland (or even native kde tiling) with a bit of tinkering.
KDE activities don't get much dev love, so be warned.
The activity script hooks are (or were for a long time, idk how it is now) an undocumented feature.
I'll dig all the stuff out for you later today.
I tried for fun and noticed that half the websites I visit don't have an ipv6 DNS record
If you are on linux, and want ai assisted stuff like you mentioned there has been this for a while: https://github.com/qwersyk/Newelle
( or the weeb version if you prefer: https://wiki.nyarchlinux.moe/nyarchassistant/ )
and it can use locally run models. But have realistic expectations. If you want it to work well, you need a beefy GPU, a lot of RAM and swap. The "intelligence" is kind of limited if you run low spec models, to the point of it maybe being utterly useless.
I searched around a bit and found https://github.com/dreiekk/calcdav
not sure if it still works, last commit was 3 years ago (on the other hand, there was no AI vibecoding back then, so thats a plus), but it looks like it might do exactly what you're looking for
there’s prep and glam I like to do or tend to set up but that I would prefer to explicitly set up instead of it being done automaticall
Back in the x11 days I had a script that would take a config file and open multiple programs in a specified arrangement across my displays.
I used KDE activities by task and had such a config for each task. KDE activities can run arbitrary scripts on being started. So when I opened the "work" activity for example, all my work apps would open up in my preffered arrangement. When I opened the gaming activity, steam would start on my side monitor and the main monitor had all of the other gaming related shortcuts on it etc.
Together with the preload daemon or a custom vm-touch (i switched from one to the other at some point) it was blazingly fast and very comfy. (Again, I overprovisioned my RAM so I used it by filling it post boot with a cache of pages that my apps load on startup)
Then wayland came and broke it and I didn't bother to fix it yet.
But everybody has their own prefered workflows, I'm not saying one is better than the other. Just wanted to share.
Sorry, I can't help you with your problem.
But just in case you were serious about "We don’t shutdown.":
In my case - clean boot takes 25s. Waking up from hibernation takes over 60 seconds, because of huge RAM. And sleep is broken due to some USB interface shenanigans. Soooo yeaaah, I fully shut down and power on every day.
Oh and btw. by default windows doesn't do a full shutdown, but a sneaky hibernate. You can see that for example if you "shutdown" windows (not reboot.), then power on the pc and boot into linux - trying to access the windows drive, you will see an error that windows "didn't shutdown properly" and is still claiming access to the windows drive. Because it's hibernating and changing content on the drive might break the wakeup.
Should have used agpl if they wanted to be noble.
But this is just a corpo moating strategy.
