I have auto redirect to 443. But --nginx works fine. I think it overrides stuff for whatever the specific url used is.

There's a certbot addon which uses nginx directly to renew the certificate (so you don't need to stop the web server to renew). If you install the addon you just use the same certbot commands but with --nginx instead and it will perform the actions without interfering with web server operation.

You just then make sure the cron job to renew also includes --nginx and you're done.

It makes sense that they issue short certificates, though. The sole verification is that you own the domain. If you sell/let the domain lapse and someone else takes it over, there's only a limited time you would hold a valid certificate for it.

An array?

var turtles = new Turtle[] { new Turtle(), new Turtle() };

Don't do this :P

You realize there's 8 billion people on the planet? The majority of people either didn't (or luckily for them still don't) know who this guy is.

Nothing to do with pets, but in Korea there are places that serve dog. At least it was the case when I was there 20+ years ago. But, of course they're not pets, they're farmed like any other livestock I would expect, and these places were not exactly commonplace even then, so maybe now they're just not a thing? I've not really looked into it.

Now, saying "x" people eat pets is likely just what others have said, a slur used against whichever subset of people is the target of the month. Maybe it once had roots in facts like those I've mentioned, but they're far removed from them now.

No, I did not partake in eating dog.

I'm not convinced it's a bluff. As an outsider looking in, I'm going to tell you how I see this sort of situation.

The Republicans have embraced the Trump way of just accepting you're the bad guy, knowing your diehards will vote for you anyway. Whereas the Democratic members and voters expect responsibility from their party leaders.

So in a shutdown, the Republicans lose nothing, and the Democrats can lose everything.

Now I'll upset some people here, I'm sure but...

Here in the UK, you can see how decent an area is using this method.

Go to the nearest Tesco Extra. If they have the coin traps on the trolleys, probably a dodgy area. If they don't, not so dodgy area.

In both cases, you're going to find the trolleys are generally not left lying around. Read into it what you will.

I only use Tesco extra as an example because from my experience other supermarkets either have the coin traps, or don't. It seems only Tesco (correct me if I'm wrong) vary the behaviour by area.

Can you post a picture of yourself here so we all know to just leave you to die, if we ever see you in medical distress.

TIA.

I mean for advert breaks, there are projects to do this to recorded tv automatically (with varying degrees of success depending on the config and the channel).

That is, you record the TV from either a TV receiver card, or streamed live channels to disk, then run this process on the mkv/mp4/ts, and it will either create a set of chapters marking the ads (so you can skip them), or it will just remove them entirely.

I don't think it would transfer to "live" TV quite so readily though. Because it does scan the whole program to find things like logos etc to help work out where the adverts are. But, I mean a lot of the work has been done.

For removing all product logos. I mean, I bet we're not far from the processing power to make it possible. But, probably a fair bit of effort needed.

I can imagine the "AI" chips being neutered for these kind of tasks, like the "low hash rate" Nividia cards.

I think this overall is a better idea. I'm going to say this because, I thought I'd look into rust today. So I installed it, setup vscode to work with it etc. And it's all up and running. I thought I would port over a "fairly simple" C# project I wrote recently as a bit of a test.

While I've generally had success (albeit with 30+ tabs open to solve questions I had about how to do certain things, and only making it about 20% into the task) I'm going to say that it's different enough from C, C++ and C# (all of which I can work with) that I really don't think it is fair to expect C developers that have day jobs and work on the kernel in their spare time to learn this. It's fundamentally different in my opinion.

Now, I don't condone any bad attitude and pushing away of rust developers from the project. But there's no way they're going to want to do anything to help which involves learning a new language. It's just not going to happen.

Likewise, C is not a language most new developers are learning. So, I feel like over time there won't be so much of an influx of new kernel developers and any Rust based kernel could find itself with more contributors over time and taking over as the de-facto kernel.

In terms of Redox (not looked into it yet). So long as there's a different team working on the userspace tools. I would say the main task should be getting a solid kernel with drivers for most popular hardware etc in place. The existing GNU tools will do until there's a kernel that is able to compete with the C one. But that's just my opinion.

Ah, so the kind of crypto bro, that instead of a fistbump, does a diffie-hellman key exchange instead?
