Or you could change the preference to enable the feature again.

To explain how HAproxy and competing tools solve this:

Two servers are prepared to be the single reverse proxy, but one is active. They constantly communicate with a “heartbeat”. When the active one fails to send a heartbeat, the secondary executes the steps to become the active primary. When the primary’s heart starts beating again, it becomes active again.

So there can be a few seconds of downtime, but the failover is automatic.

Yes, especially if people use the “latest” tag, trusting whatever the container might be updated to do in the future.

I am using Navidrome and if it has significant bugs, I haven’t run into them yet.

As a man, when l run shirtless it’s not because I want to show off my chest, it’s because I’m hot and it’s practical. Depending on the temperature in and around the workplace, something with less coverage may be more comfortable.

That’s not what the FAQ says, rather it says Flatpaks are often sandboxed but not fully containerized. Containers don’t need to have a performance penalty because they run on the same kernel as the host. Container tech applies a chroot, disables some capabilities within the container and that’s about it. They are in contrast to virtual machines that need to boot an entire additional OS before doing anything.

Part of the app resides on the GitHub infrastructure, where GitHub stores, processes and displays results. So their costs are not zero.

But GitHub could take a “tax the rich” approach to pricing by charging enterprise customers more for self-hostingand leave it free for others.

A lot of open source is funded like that— most funding for a project comes from a very few companies and everything else uses it free or for very low donations or costs.

My job involves maintaining Linux servers so there are no problems with Linux as my desktop.

Currently Arch Linux as the desktop OS.

Years ago I used a voicemail to text service that worked like that— It was powered by human transcribers.

You have never had some family member experience a broken website that they needed to work but you were not around to fix it on the server side?

 
 

This poorly designed table on the AWS website appears to show that neither tier of their new AI agent "Q" offers "Peace of Mind".

Maybe the table was designed by AI, too? "PRICE", "FEATURES" and "PEACE OF MIND" are supposed to be understood as section headers, but the design doesn't work because they didn't also put "price" on its own row and they pointlessly used alternate-row background colors. They could have used background cell colors to communicate which rows were section headers.

 

It boots into a special mode to walk you through completing the assembly. The screen updates to reflect your progress and prompt the next step. This requires no tools to complete. Impressive! See linked video.

 

You've got multiple monitors and watch to switch to a window several windows away.

You could switch focus there with a number of arrow key movements.

"sway-easymotion" allows you to use to press a key that prints a one or two character label on each window. Press that key and your focuses switch there.

Over the weekend I submitted patches for a couple of new features. First, I added multi-monitor support. Second, I added a visual confirmation of which window was selected.

If you are familiar with Github and Rust, you can review the patches and try them out here:
