I've got an openbsd server, postgres installed from the package manager, and a couple of apps running with that as the database. My backup process just stops all the services, backs up the filesystem, then starts them again. Downtime is acceptable when you don't have many users!


I moved us off docker swarm to GKE some years back. The multi node swarm was quite unstable, and none of the big cloud providers offered managed swarm in the same way they offer managed k8s.

It's a shame I agree because it was nicely integrated with dockers own tooling. Plus I wouldn't have had to learn about k8s :)


Yeah I believe calibre can pull the files from the kindle as well as push to it. But I've only got an old kindle not a new one.


> But it would be healthy for everyone if people supported a DRM-free and non-surveillance ebook ecosystem.

I try nearly every time. The book I want (usually sci-fi recommended to me by friends) is never available from any DRM free shop I can find.

I end up buying from Amazon because their DRM is the most convenient to remive. And I go to the effort to remove it because I want to keep the content I buy, not have it disappear when the DRM key holder decides to take it away from me.


Adaptive cycling. I've met folks well into their 80s riding trikes to get places (hip replacements and all).


Cargo bike?


Wonder if this works for everyone. Like if you have an infant, where would you put it ?

Lots of different logistics to figure out


The front loading variety can fit car seats for infants. My 2yo fits on a rear seat no problem.

Might not work for absolutely everyone but it sure works for some.


Yeah there is some capability for this, for example https://criu.org

You can actually still use infinity for Reddit it's just a pain to get it.


Beeper seems to be working ok for me for the moment
