I want to share a file w password, to someone w/o an account on my server. I used to use Apache htaccess AuthUserFile for this, but that's gross. Open source file sharing systems (Nextcloud, Seafile, Pydio) require a server account to share, else the file is open to public internet.
I was looking, and found LinShare - seems to work! https://www.linshare.org (Also found ProjectSend but it doesn't seem as straightforward.)
How did I not already know about this? #selfhosting #indieweb
Something is compelling me to run btrfs and zpool scrub on my backup disks today
if you run nextcloud and downloading a large calendar fails (and maybe you check the logs and see something starting with "PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of")
try `sudo snap set nextcloud php.memory-limit=256M`

@annika Congrats, and welcome to the davdroid club :)
I've had it up to HERE with the frickin WINDOW BLINDS companies and how they're HURTING LAW ENFORCEMENT. Don't they have any concern with the SAFETY of the AMERICAN PEOPLE?
I want to hang out with you and talk about what the hell we're all doing with our lives

Every time I use masto, I'm reminded hey! this is based on that other harmful thing without reconsidering the impacts of that design before mass adoption!
this isn't a critique of masto specifically, i ran a statusnet instance a long time ago, same deal
the way a chrono feed misappropriates attention feels disheartening

Just watched #TheGreatHack on #Netflix. What I appreciated about this #documentary on #Facebook and the whole #CambridgeAnalytica scandal, is that it's one of the few #privacy #documentaries to get that protecting personal data isn't just about not seeing personalized ads for stuff you're more likely to want. It's about protecting ourselves from mass psychological manipulation and behavior modification techniques. These are techniques that actually work *best* when people believe they don't.
@annika excellent, everyone waited to merge until the rewrite work was complete, and deploy went successfully. Thank goodness there do not appear to be any regressions or customer impacts!

I'm starting to think that people skills and communication problems are the greatest barrier to productivity in software development
tech shit, loss
my `.bash_history` appears to be truncated down to 2k lines. It was several hundred thousand lines of reference (and remembrance!) to all the work I have been doing for years. And my backups appear to have the truncated version.
