Thanks for the insight! I work for a publicly-funded educational institution (a non-profit as well), and can attest to having to adhere to similar restrictions that you mentioned, albeit not 100% the same.

What you describe here sounds like technical debt that was assumed by the organization due to an initial lack of knowledge/experience in an environment where sufficient restrictions exist that effectively stifle organizational agility. This lack of agility in turn results in higher operational costs.

I think that’s ironic, because at the end if the day, the root cause of inflated operational costs happen to be the regulations/restrictions put in place to avoid frivolous spending in the first place.

Eh, if you’re gonna donate it, at least research the org that you’re donating it to. Lots of non-profits and registered charities squander their donations on administrative overhead.

Are you looking for an SSH client specifically? Given the price tag, you’re likely in iOS/iPadOS, in which case I suggest Shelly: https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/shelly-ssh-client/id989642999 It’s only 5 Canuckistani copecs ($5CAD) one time “tip” to the author to unlock “premium” mode which includes iCloud sync of profiles. Note that keys and passwords are not synced (that’s probably a good thing: keys don’t leave your device).

For a cross-platform option, Termius will do everything you want and more. It is a recurring subscription though. Note that it’s part of the Github student pack, so if you have a university/college email, you can sign up for that and get your pro subscription for free.

I think garbage collection is a thing that needs to be run on a regular basis. If you’re using the community edition of Seafile, you’ll need to shut down its services and run an offline garbage collection. If you get a pro license (I think up to 3 users are free), you can run the garbage collection online, i.e. without shutting down the service.

Make a plain text file under Apache somewhere with .php extension and stick the following into it:

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

Ctrl+F the word “memory” and see if anything looks off.

The author has a Master’s in informatics. That’s pretty much like an MBA. I wouldn’t expect more than buzzword-bingo from someone like that.

400ppm? That’s pretty hard water. Your espressos must taste awful. 😣

If you’re that worried, why not run chmod -R u+w .git inside the project dir to “un write-protect” the files, then just ascend to the directory containing the project dir (cd …) and use rm -r without -f?

The force flag (-f) is the scary one, I presume?

Whoah, isn’t FUTO the non-profit that Louis Rossmann works for? This is great news!!

The ability to walk at 40km/h speeds.

If this is their attitude to a clear self-inflicted fuckup, then that’s plenty reason for me to avoid them and their services. It’s not like their services were distinct in any way… just a dime in a dozen cloud provider.

At work, if you have the option, consider using KeePassXC or similar software. That will give you a properly encrypted file with secrets and also password-manager features.

5 days WFH hands down.

Interactive (i.e. end-users) Clients should be using OAuth instead of app passwords. This will allow your users to use their own Office365 credentials for SMTP.

For servers and non-interactive clients (e.g. copiers/printers/toasters/coffee makers) I would suggest something along the lines here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/mail-flow-best-practices/how-to-set-up-a-multifunction-device-or-application-to-send-email-using-microsoft-365-or-office-365#compare-the-options

Did you ask in !privacy@lemmy.world?

I was thinking the same thing. Either this person didn’t replace their tires in a couple of decades or does insane acceleration/turns/burnouts/stunts.

How is this not the most upvoted comment? I just do not understand!

On a more serious note, yes, this is extremely dangerous and the rear tire should be replaced before anyone rides this bike.

I was actually confused about your response to grahamsz@kbin.social… it seems like they have at least a basic understanding of how registrars vs. DNS hosts work.

WHOIS privacy? Porkbun does that for free for all TLDs that support it.

I don’t think I fully understand how what they offer isn’t “ownership by proxy”. I suppose they promise not to release your info if police ask for it? On the other hand, they technically own the domains you register through them, so if they get repossessed (e.g. through legal bankruptcy proceedings), whoever their new owner is, will presumably also own your domains…

I’m probably not seeing something here, but this all sounds sketchy to me.

Cloudflare sells domains at cost. So yes, cheaper than any other registrar (including NameCheap and Porkbun), except maybe those who sell domains at a loss as a promo to rope you in and then kill you on the renewals.

Integration into their stack is a nice side effect, but really inconsequential. You can have your domains registered with any registrar and have your DNS hosted by any DNS hosting provider. Heck, you can run your own DNS servers if you want to.
