Yeah, they do ship to Oz. But you can’t pay with an NZ card so you’ve gotta do a whole thing where you send money internationally to a friend then they pay and order and receive it then ship it to you. It seems like a big ask for contacting a distant relative out of the blue and asking them to do that.

Same here! I have one but can’t get components any more because they locked down freight forwarding 🙁

My kids use Chromebooks at school. What I call “Word” they call “Docs”. It’s very clear why Google gives this operating system away for free.

Eh I don’t even need to think about this anymore. I have a cron job that backs up every March 31st.

No, they removed that clause some 2 or 3 years back.

Isn’t the narrowing part the not bold bit, that specifically says it’s about your use of Firefox? As in you save bookmarks which are synced via Firefox servers. It needs to be a worldwide license in order to allow them to store that data on their CDN. It needs to be royalty-free because that it saying you can’t ask Firefox for money because they have your data. Non-exclusive is them saying they aren’t claiming you can’t also give the right to others.

I would be less concerned about the part in bold and much more concerned about what they are allowed to do with that data.

I use Borgmatic for my scheduled backups, and sync to Backblaze B2 with Rclone. Works great!

My data doesn’t compress as well as yours though.

Holy hell, Napster is a (legal) subscription music streaming service! Crazy times we live in.

Docker wants you to use volumes. That data is persistent too. They say volumes are much easier to backup. I disagree, I much prefer the bind mounts, especially when it comes to selective backups.

Yes that’s what I do too!

Overnight cron to stop containers, run borgmatic, then start the containers again.

I occasionally have had permissions issues but I tend to be able to fix them. Normally it’s just a matter of deleting the files on the host and letting the container create them, though it doesn’t always work it usually does.

I don’t know if this is naughty but I use bind mounts for everything, and docker compose to keep it all together.

You can map directories or even individual files to directories/files on the host computer.

Normally I make a directory for the service then map all volumes inside a ./data directory or something like that. But you could easily bind to different directories. For example for photoprism I mount my photos from a data drive for it to access, mount the main data/database to a directory that gets backed up, and mount the cache to a directory that doesn’t get backed up.

Haha I knew what this was even before I clicked 😆

This reminds me of a toy one of my kids got given from my mum.

Apparently it was a giraffe. A giraffe without the one defining feature of a giraffe.

I’m not sure what can be done at the free tier. There is a switch to turn on AI not blocking, and it breaks federation.

You can’t whitelist domains because federation could come from and domain. Maybe you could somehow whitelist /inbox for the ActivityPub communication, but I’m not sure how to do that in Cloudflare.

Yeah Bandcamp is great. They also do Bandcamp Friday events where all the revenue goes to the artist.

The problem is it’s really hard to find any mainstream bands on there. Presumably most of them sign away those rights when they get a label.

In terms of Lemmy instances, if your instance is behind cloudflare and you turn on AI protection, federation breaks. So their tools are not very helpful for fighting the AI scraping.

It says here it’s 100 total: https://help.kagi.com/kagi/plans/plan-types.htm

The Trial plan is limited to 100 total searches. This plan is suited for those interested in exploring Kagi and curious about paid search engines.

Is it 100 a month? I thought it was 100 total, no specified time frame. It’s intended as a trial period not a free tier.

Ah interesting, I didn’t realise Apple Music was available on Android.

For the life of me I cannot find an Apple Music website that lets you buy and download songs. I keep getting directed to download iTunes.
