MarkStack looks ideal for publishing docs for family

https://github.com/KineticEnforcer/MarkStack

Fast, minimal static site generator that transforms markdown into searchable documentation sites. Built to run anywhere, even on a Raspberry Pi.

Check the app’s own docs first, there is something here about automating backups:

The EFF have a page on this, setting out the threats:

https://www.eff.org/wp/unintended-consequences-16-years-under-dmca

…which is mostly a link to:

https://www.eff.org/files/2014/09/16/unintendedconsequences2014.pdf

…whose summary reads as follows.

The “anti-­‐circumvention” provisions of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”), codified in section 1201 of the Copyright Act, have not been used as Congress envisioned. The law was ostensibly intended to stop copyright infringers from defeating anti-­‐piracy protections added to copyrighted works.[1] In practice, the anti-­‐circumvention provisions have been used to stifle a wide array of legitimate activities. As a result, the DMCA has become a serious threat to several important public policy priorities:

The DMCA Chills Free Expression and Scientific Research.

Experience with section 1201 demonstrates that it is being used to stifle free speech and scientific research. The lawsuit against 2600 magazine, threats against Princeton Professor Edward Felten’s team of researchers, and prosecution of Russian programmer Dmitry Sklyarov have chilled the legitimate activities of journalists, publishers, scientists, students, programmers, and members of the public.

The DMCA Jeopardizes Fair Use.

By banning all acts of circumvention, and all technologies and tools that can be used for circumvention, the DMCA grants to copyright owners the power to unilaterally eliminate the public’s fair use rights. Already, the movie industry’s use of encryption on DVDs has curtailed consumers’ ability to make legitimate, personal-­‐use copies of movies they have purchased.

The DMCA Impedes Competition and Innovation.

Rather than focusing on pirates, some have wielded the DMCA to hinder legitimate competitors. For example, the DMCA has been used to block aftermarket competition in laser printer toner cartridges, garage door openers, videogame console accessories, and computer maintenance1 services. Similarly, Apple has used the DMCA to tie its iPhone devices to Apple’s own software and services.

This thread adds some context but not easy to draw any conclusions yet:

Update on the project

They link to Chandler (monica vNext) which is an now an archived repo however I think dev work has moved to main branch in Monica repo? So possibly misunderstanding…

This might be obvious but it could be caching? Use a tool like dig to check if it’s really updated. Not had a problem with duckdns, works good.

This is good read

The Impact of Jungle Music in 90s Video Game Development

https://pikuma.com/blog/jungle-music-video-game-drum-bass

Jungle and many other genres of EDM were a perfect match for the fast-pace games that were developed in the 90s. Most of the titles using a jungle soundtrack were from the second half of the decade, although the trend continued all the way up through the mid 2000s.

Consoles from this generation were also able to store and play CD-quality audio, which meant developers could really take advantage of the entire spectrum of frequencies and sounds that both jungle & drum’n’bass demanded.

There’s a list of games at the end including Wipeout, Rage Racer, Gran Turismo, Bomberman, Sega Marine Fishing

Hedy is an open source programming language that is broken into levels for easy learning. As you progress the language gains more capabilities, so they are never overwhelmed with too much

In contrast to block based languages like scratch its goal is to leave students ready to switch to Python by the end.

Each level has small tasks to complete so you can tackle it piece by piece and get a sense of progression.

That would be Snap!

It’s become somewhat of a trend over the last several months for new projects to describe themselves as ‘modern’. Not only is this not a helpful descriptor (What is ‘modern’? Is the design modern? The codebase?), but a good portion of the time it’s simply not true.

I keep seeing ‘blazing/blazingly fast’ everywhere too, with a rocket or such emoji

Self-hosting anything that is deemed “content” openly on the web in 2025 is a battle of attrition between you and forces who are able to buy tens of thousands of proxies to ruin your service for data they can resell.

This is depressing. Profoundly depressing.

Sigh

This is new:

https://github.com/dkorecko/PatchPanda

Self-hostable Docker Compose stack update manager.

And

when you choose to update, PatchPanda edits compose/.env files and runs docker compose pull and docker compose up -d for the target stack. You can also view live log.

Discovered in the latest Self Host Weekly:

I have not tried it myself tho.

The link seems to say Threads support is only available as an add-on and therefore not simple to use with containerised HASS. This would be true for any Threads antenna though.

That’s a great suggestion! Tho I will swap emacs for neovim which is available on termux too

Same I like meld but yes looking for android
