Appreciate the example! It’s when handling a DHCP range and the related CIDR notation that I tend to get especially muddled in this area. It certainly doesn’t help that each router’s interface and terminology tends to vary just enough to add uncertainty.

Regardless, the comments here and more focus on this have helped clear some of this up for me.

Have you seen Publii yet? Dunno how well it works on Linux, but there’s a version for Linux as well.

Is this ever noted in any of the documentation, outside of some fine print, with the printer to let someone know that it’s being done? If your product is secretly leaving indicators for anyone aware of the indicators to track your actions in some way, that’s problematic in my opinion.

Given a printer is arguably a lesser issue anymore, but the same idea applies with other tech.

Thanks!

What’s a CLA?

When I hosted game servers: Depending on the game, you may have to fix something every few hours. Arma 3 is, by far, the worst. Which really sucks because the games can last really long, and it can be annoying to save and load with the GM tool thing.

Was that a mix of games being more involved and the way their server software was set up, from what you could tell, or…?

Yeah, to clarify I don’t mean organizing/arranging files as a part of maintenance, moreso handling different installs/configs/updating. Sometimes since more folks come around to ask for help it can appear as if it’s all much more involved to maintain than it may otherwise be (with a mix of the right setups and knowledge to deal with any hiccups).

Is there a less arcane way to perform searches similarly to regex?

What makes JavaScript so widely disliked? I know very little of it, and in skimming different stuff I think I’ve seen like a million different frameworks for it, so is that a part of it?

Each time I’ve read into self-hosting it often sounds like opening stuff up to the internet adds a bunch of complexity and potential headaches, but I’m not sure how much of it is practicality vs being excessively cautious.

Have you tried/looked into Joplin yet? If I understand right, I think the one box it doesn’t tick unfortunately is the first (at least in the Android app), as it supports markdown which is only rendered after leaving edit mode.

However, it does have checkboxes and the whole note doesn’t have to be a checklist. You can write a description, add your checklist, add a horizontal separator line, another description, another checklist, all in the same note. It’s also FOSS and actively updated. Bonus as well is that it can be used with Syncthing to sync notes to your other devices, and there’s a desktop version which has some more flexibility over the Android app.

This Meshtastic, I take it? I haven’t personally used it, but it sounds interesting! Not too surprising there’s not much info about it though, as it does sound rather niche.

“Why is this documentation like this? Who hurt them?”

Can you fax them to me?

https://esc.sh/projects/devops-from-scratch/ is a good resource. Most questions you have (that are more specific) are easily searchable on the internet.

Thanks, however while there are some rough notes in the Github link, it looks like this is primarily a series of videos? I was asking for text resources as I prefer those for a variety of reasons, and in this specific case it’s because it’s much easier to copy over any referenced scripts and clearly read commands mentioned.
