The government here in Spain is more concerned with staying in power than solving real problems or improving infrastructure. Hope this was the final straw we have to endure and they pay for their negligence at best, evil at worst in court.

Sorry to make a political statement with this tragedy, but the downgrade in Spain in recent years is just too much.

DEP and my condolences to the relatives and love ones.

Offtopic: It's infuriating how I clicked the site and it wasn't loading. Scrolled the comments looking for a "hug to death" mention but found none, then realized I live in Spain and today is football day...

I'll check the site when a football private company allows me to.

I want to use Safari on Mac Apple, I really do: no need to install spyware, fast, good bench for webdev but for the wrong reasons (if it works on Safari it works everywhere else). It's not the best looking browser, but I can get used to it.

But, every time I open it and my back and forward mouse buttons don't work, I get so infuriated that only thinking about Apple engineers being forced to use the Magic Mouse relieves the pain. Seriously, WTF? Just fix that and bake uBlock Origin in and I'm sold. Meanwhile, Firefox.

What's a reasonable setup for sailing the seas safely?

It's not only the price hikes and the atomization/fragmentation of content, what made me cut the wire was that I couldn't get high quality in my computer unless I used X browser for Y service.

Still daily driving the 6s after almost 11 glorious years, and I can't imagine software ever being painfully slow on M series hardware. But if you need, well, are forced, to be on latest MacOS, then you are out of luck and you have my sympathy.

(My relatives iPhone updated and its just bad all around. And with increased font size for accessibility, elements don't cover all the text. Feels rushed and not the promised Apple land.)

Not updating from Sequoia until the Liquid Glass era is over.

Also daily driving the same 6s for almost 11 years but the 3rd battery is starting to die and I think many apps will stop working soon. Wanted to get a 18 base but that happens on March and 17 is now 150€ more, yikes. You can try the SE 3rd gen, the size is the same with updated internals.

Since last month I've been CAPTCHAed in many Google searchs in Firefox. I assumed either a local device was spamming them or maybe Codex/Claude web search was flagging me as a bot.

So is this CAPTCHAing because I refuse to navigate the ad-infested way? How can I rule out a problem on my end if my router is ISP provided with limited functionality ?

Sorry I should have put in the post that I don't want to use Oauth because I want to see what's possible with a non 3rd party auth. I always see the "dont roll your own auth" message being tossed around, and this site provides a great lab for testing the waters of owning auth: no email to leak, nothing serious to protect.

I really wanted to avoid Oauth providers and keep the auth in-house only. For a more serious site like an e-commerce or a SaaS sure, but for a very low stakes site I wanted to see what's possible with minimal 3rd party dependencies.

I'm sure many users prefer the Google/Github/Apple/Twitter? buttons, and the moment they see a email+password only wall they bounce, but I think that offering a username + auto suggested password is a superb UX.

I wanted to hear if someone who went this route later regretted it, or if they are happy with it and how they solved the problems that may appear. Mainly abuse and forgot password flows (just count that user as forever gone?).

I've been on the free tier 1vCPU x86 / 1GB RAM for years and it was a perfect experience. I recently upgraded to the 4/24, and indeed you need to change to PAYG or otherwise it's out of capacity, but still no problem and within the free limits. For your use case, if the 1/1 instance is enough, I highly recommend Oracle and it's not something I imagined myself saying.

can you share what are the common pitfalls with self hosting a postgres image, as I'm planning to do? I know self hosting will bite my ass sooner than later, I just want to be somewhat ready and prevent easy mistakes

Can you share what's your setup for all that orchestration? I feel way behind just asking Claude Code for code edits. Is there any site where people share different AI setups, besides youtube?
