Good article. As an open source maintainer, I agree. The majority of interactions I have from my users are positive, but every once in a while, some entitled asshat does make unreasonable demands. I usually respond with a stern dressing down, but respectfully. If they continue, I’ll block them from whatever channel.

One thing that annoys me is when people get upset that I use Discord for support. I get it, it has drawbacks, but I’m not going to spend my limited resources hosting an alternative that most people won’t want to use anyway. Everything I use to host, distribute, and support my projects is free for both me and my users, and that’s because I’m not getting paid to make my projects. I also give out my email, so it’s not even a fair criticism.

And it will be absolute trash.

It’s funny how everything Donald Trump does is exactly what Putin would want him to do.

One thing I do is instead of having an open SSH port, I have an OpenVPN server that I’ll connect to, then SSH to the host from within the network. Then, if someone hacks into the network, they still won’t have SSH access.

If only doing a bunch of crimes prevented you from being the president of the US.

Nah, just toss a fork in there too.

Sounds like those bowls have some metal content. Plenty of ceramics have a bit of metal in them. Metallic glazes in particular. That’ll heat up in the microwave.

Or it could just be that the outside of the food is heating up the bowl.

It’s astounding that he honestly believed he could end the war in 24 hours. He’s really that stupid.

Good advice.
