If I knew self-hosting BIND was that easy I wouldn't have used FreeDNS.

I don't know. You can't expect people to consume media if they are boring, regardless of AI.

CSS shouldn't have logic it. But layout needs logic. The next step should be to ditch CSS altogether and implement it as a DSL in JavaScript.

TrueNAS with file system folders. I don't consume media that much so I get away with it. The only media I need to consume remotely is music, which I have gonic for.

I don't care one bit that Mathematicians wasted years of progress or lost their craft over this. The problem is that models that can do this are locked behind corporate walls.

I self-host about 30 services. I exclusively pick software that's written either in C++, Rust, or Go. If I can't find one I write my own in C++.

I mean because I've seen and done everything I have hope to see and do in my life. Why not just die.

> The passkeys most people use are synced passkeys, stored in iCloud Keychain, Google Password Manager, 1Password, Bitwarden or whatever other software of your choosing

Sorry but this is the whole problem with passkey: you are forced to rely on a 3rd party to take care of your credientials, on their computers, with their software. This is like a text book example of a trap: someone set up something that looks harmless/invisible, you walk into it, and that someone now has some leverage over you.

Honestly I don't care about any of that. From my perspective, passkey = phone + app required. That's already a red flag big enough for me to not use them. If I put on my engineer hat, another problem I see is that most services seem to not be competent enough to implement it in a non-broken way.
