Readit NewsInternal hostnames leaking is real, but in practice it’s just one tiny slice of a much larger problem: names and metadata leak everywhere - logs, traces, code, monitoring tools etc etc.
Using LE to apply SSL to services? Complicated. Non standard paths, custom distro, everything hidden (you can’t figure out where to place the ssl cert of how to restart the service, etc). Of course you will figure it out if you spent 50 hours… but why?
Don’t get me started with the old rsync version, lack of midnight commander and/or other utils.
I should have gone with something that runs proper Linux or BSD.
These days I try to interact with Azure through the command line and asking Claude, which works pretty well most of the time but there are some things their API cannot do and you are forced to use their crazy Azure UI. It's not as bad as the AWS console UI, but still bad.
It's amazing to me a company that spent so much and invested so much in OpenAI has such a terrible product and got almost nothing out of it. Even standard ChatGPT is way better at giving you directions on what to do than their useless Copilot.
Microsoft has also tried hard to push Edge, annoying nearly every Windows user on the planet, with no real success.
That's when I started losing trust in Google as a company.
Let's start from the beginning, create and own:
You're sketching out some nude fanart on a piece of paper. You created that and own that. Thas has always been illegal?!
(This is apart from my feelings on Mechahitler/Grok, which aren't positive.)
Apparently, the Codex app itself is proof that AI is not that good at doing what people think it does.
If it were to break, knock on wood it won't happen, what options are there? I have tried to look but haven't really found anything that is free of Chinese backdoors and has decent hardware. For just Plex or Jellyfin a N100 box or similar could do, but I want easy launch of HBO, YouTube etc. And I need that remote control option.
It's not as powerful as an Nvidia Shield, of course, but at least is not a random product from Temu riddled with spyware.
I run a pretty simple SaaS with a free tier and the amount of spam that I have to manage is high; I don't want to even imagine how difficult it must be to run a website where anybody can edit pretty much anything.
I wonder who would not only have the passwords, but the know-how to manage the whole thing, at least to transition it to more managed services...
