One could simplify the entire thing and use GitHub pages or CloudFlare pages to host Jekyll sites directly from a GitHub repository

[wooptoo → Railworks2]

Github pages requires the repo to be public - which might not work for everyone. CF pages is pretty cool, thanks!

Feels like that for me, suddenly I can actually reopen Roblox Studio and do some work.

Roblox Dev here (Make the experiences, not employee), Halloween the second most important weekend for us developers in terms of income.

The Friday and Saturday are critical days in getting revenue from any Halloween specific events we may do. Such as a Halloween update or discount.

I'm happy to see Roblox is refunding adverts, especially after seeing how much support this has. https://devforum.roblox.com/t/reimbursement-on-sponsors-and-...

Go check what Bitwarden clients use. You're welcome.

[arminiusreturns → Railworks2]

Oh no, I had only ever used their web interface. Thank you for the heads up. I personally refuse to install anything electron or nodejs on my systems, so I guess I won't be using the desktop bitwarden client anytime soon.

Are there any good bitwarden alternatives? (shared env pass managers)

Roblox has made repeated statements on this, latest from their Roblox Developer Con 2020.

In short, not enough demand that requires more support for players.

There has been repeated demands for this but every year is a no.

Here is one of those threads https://devforum.roblox.com/t/proper-support-for-the-linux-p...

ChromeOS works because it uses the Android version of Roblox.

Yes. Both Roblox and developers (the game creators) do make money from Roblox. This is no small thing either, it is not abnormal for developers to buy expensive products from their earnings, some do create companies to hire employees to work on games.

Somewhat simple, I just haven't left my bed yet.

On: WildDuck – No spof scalable and API driven email server

[Railworks2]

Maybe this is just me but this project leans quite heavily in MailCow's world. At least from a design standpoint.

Interesting project

[andris9 → Railworks2]

Mailcow bundles 3rd party applications (Dovecot/Postix) into a single easy to use solution. WildDuck is a standalone application that handles mail store, IMAP an POP3 all by itself. This also makes it possible to add features like automatic GPG encryption of messages uploaded via IMAP which would be difficult when using off the shelf IMAP server.

NUC? NAS?

Kind of depends which way you wanna go. NAS is probably the term you're thinking off.

[tilolebo → Railworks2]

Nope, it was indeed NUC.

I already have a DIY NAS at home, I'm now looking for an extra small machine to run more experimental stuff, playing with k8s, etc.

I don't want to do that on my NAS.
