Here’s one I have saved in my shell aliases.

nscript() {
    local name="${1:-nscript-$(printf '%s' $(echo "$RANDOM" | md5sum) | cut -c 1-10)}"
    echo -e "#!/usr/bin/env bash\n#set -Eeuxo pipefail\nset -e" > ./"$name".sh && chmod +x ./"$name".sh && hx ./"$name".sh
}
alias nsh='nscript'

Admittedly much more complicated than necessary, but it’s pretty full featured. first line constructs a filename for the new script from a generated 10 character random hash and prepends “nscript” and a user provided name.

The second line writes out the shebang and a few oft used bash flags, makes the file executable and opens in in my editor (Helix in my case).

The third line is just a shortened alias for the function.

Thanks for the correction. A full month is much more problematic.

Thanks, SUSE completely slipped my mind

How does the xz incident impacts the average user ?

It doesn’t.

Average person:

• not running Debian sid, Fedora nightly, Arch, OpenSUSE Tumbleweed, or tbh any flavour of Linux. (Arch reportedly unafffected)
• ssh service not exposed publicly

The malicious code was discovered within a day or two a month of upload iirc and presumably very few people were affected by this. There’s more to it but it’s technical and not directly relevant to your question.

For the average person it has no practical impact. For those involved with or interested in software supply chain security, it’s a big deal.

Edit:
Corrections:

• OpenSUSE Tumbleweed was affected; Arch received malicious package but due to how it is implemented did not result in compromised SSH service.
• Affected package was out in the wild for about a month, suggesting many more affected systems before malicious package was discovered and rolled back.

Seems he’s revealing that he is either Bruce Wayne or Bane. As they’re the only two to ever escape from the pit; historically speaking.

Probably not exactly what you’re looking for, but for my personal use I just set up a repo in my git forge (gitea in my case) with a bunch of markdown files in various folders and a Hugo theme.

Every time I want to update a document I can click the link at the bottom of the “Wiki” page and edit it in Gitea’s WYSIWYG editor. Similar process if I want to make a new document. When I save the changes I have a CI job (native to Gitea/Github) that uses Hugo to build the markdown docs into a full website and sync it to a folder on one of my servers where it’s picked up by a web server.

Sounds complicated when I type it all out, but the only thing that I can reasonably expect to be a deal breaker is the Hugo software, of which there are archived versions, and even if there wasn’t Hugo’s input is just markdown, so I can repurpose however I see fit.

You could probably do something similar with other SSG’s or even use Github’s pages feature, though that does add a failure point if/when they decide to sunset or monetize the feature.

It’s because the original image macro that this is based on was about piracy, saying something along the lines of “I bring a certain ‘just torrent it’ vibe to the conversion that the riaa just doesn’t like.”

Their reuse of the macro is indirectly an answer or a continuation of it that can be seen as acknowledging the original message.

I see now, that makes sense why you are building the image since it was set up that way. I don’t know why projects set up the compose file to build the image when they already have a publicly available image to use; it just creates unnecessary friction for people who just want to test out the software. Anyway, using that image should work for you, but feel free to ask if you run into any issues.

Why are you building the image yourself? Not that there’s a problem with that necessarily, but it seems a bit wasteful of your resources unless you have a specific reason to do so. There’s a docker image (quay.io/invidious/invidious:latest) built by the developers that gets updated pretty frequently. I’ve been using it for years now and it’s been working perfectly fine for me the whole time.

Even if you need something just once, just install it and then uninstall it, takes like 10 seconds.

apt install foo && apt remove foo

That’s essentially what nix-shell -p does. Not a special feature of nix, just nix’s way of doing the above.

Actually using it though is pretty convenient; it disappears on its own when I exit the shell. I used it just the other day with nix-shell -p ventoy to install ventoy onto an ssd, I may not need that program again for years. Just used it with audible-cli to download my library and strip the DRM with ffmpeg. Probably won’t be needing that for a while either.

The other thing to keep in mind is that since Nix is meant to be declarative, everything goes in a config file, which screams semi-permenant. Having to do that with ventoy and audible-cli would just be pretty inconvenient. That’s why it exists; due to how Nix is, you need a subcommand for temporary one-off operations.

If you’re ok with just file storage sftpgo has been solid for me for years now. Does sftp ftp and WebDAV (like nextcloud). Webui isn’t as pretty but it’s fast. Mobile apps will be various sync apps with sftp or WebDAV support. On Android folder sync pro is pretty good for keeping documents and pictures backed up

They did. Its called airmessage. Has been around for almost 3 years now

Just this one https://wallhaven.cc/w/2y2wg6

Have it hard-coded in my config so I’m less likely to faff around with my wallpaper instead of doing something productive. Less cognitive load IMO

Full disclosure: I’ve never used 1Password so can’t really comment on it compared with others, but I’m currently running a selfhosted Bitwarden re-implementation (vaultwarden) and am generally pretty happy with it. I’ve only ever used LastPass as a password manager before (aside from a seeding algo back in the day), and while I really don’t like their business practices or security history, their extension has or at least had a bit better consistency on Firefox than Bitwarden does, at least with regards to detecting username/password fields and detecting when a new credential is being created and asking it to be saved automatically. That being said, it’s something that I can live with considering it’s free software. As far as I’m aware, in terms of features all the big players in that space are pretty evenly matched, though I do remember some advanced feature that 1Password offered over others; maybe related to privilege access management in enterprise.

Just another option. If you know already or are willing to learn how to write documents in markdown format (like how lemmy supports), and learn some of infrastructure set-up and it can be between free and very cheap to have a blog on something like netlify.app, github pages or others. There are plenty of static site generators out there that can be both relatively easy and very powerful.

I currently have a private blog set up on a cloud provider that just takes markdown documents and builds those along with some templates and webpage code to create a site like this. Although I have mine hosted on a VPS with my own domain, it’s completely possible to use something like github pages, netlify.app, etc. for that. They’re both free afaik to host on, but if you want to pay for a dedicated service they are usually between 2 and 5 USD per month.

Edit: The option above isn’t activitypub software, sorry for not realizing that immediately, but it is federated in a way I suppose.

Hallelujah!

Newsgroup.ninja, because I support fellow ninjas and pirates.

Have a backup block on Usenet Farm which I’ve basically never needed.

Raft by Stephen Baxter. Part of the Xeelee sequence series.

Currently on book 2: Timelike Infinity and I’m liking it quite a bit.

Not trying to out myself, but I may be one of the few people that actually owned that shirt lol
