Bill Nye (the Science Guy). Total jerk, unfortunately.

I don't think "command line hard" is the worst part of self-hosting. (beehaw.org)
 

I've seen a lot of people saying things that amount to "those tech nerds need to understand that nobody wants to use the command line!", but I don't actually think that's the hardest part of self-hosting today. I mean, even with a really slick GUI like ASUSTOR NASes provide, getting a reliable, non-NATed connection, with an SSL certificate, some kind of basic DDOS protection, backups, and working outgoing email (ugh), is a huge pain in the ass.

Am I wrong? Would a Sandstorm-like GUI for deploying Docker images solve all of our problems? What can we do to reshape the network such that people can more easily run their own stuff?

Hi! I'm not super deep into the furry community but I do know a lot of furries and I'm in the process of getting my fursona some better-developed art, so I guess I count?

happy pride month, Beehaw! what queer stuff will you be up to this month? in c/[email protected]

I've been thinking a lot about how polyamory plays into my queerness - I'm lucky enough to have significantly expanded my local chosen family since Pride in 2021, and over the last year our housing situation has gotten much more stable.

I think that I'm almost more committed to polyamory than I am to bisexuality, as a label. I certainly face more problems as a polyamorous person than as a bi one.
