In Europe I get a voting pass sent in the mail for every election. To vote I have to show both this pass and a valid ID.
In the Netherlands it doesn't even have to be a valid ID. If it hasn't been expired for more than 5 years it's fine for voting purposes.
You don't actually have to set all the modification dates to now, you can pick any other timestamp you want. So to preserve the order of the files, you could just have the script sort the list of files by date, then update the modification date of the oldest file to some fixed time ago, the second-oldest to a bit later, and so on.
You could even exclude recently-edited files because the real modification dates are probably more relevant for those. For example, if you only process files older than 3 months, and update those starting from "6 months old"^1^, that just leaves remembering to run that script at least once a year or so. Just pick a date and put a recurring reminder in your calendar.
^1^: I picked 6 months there to leave some slack, in case you procrastinate your next run or it's otherwise delayed because you're out sick or on vacation or something.
If you don't mind using a gibberish .xyz domain, why not an 1.111B class? ([6-9 digits].xyz for $0.99/year)
Any chance you've defined the new networks as "internal"? (using docker network create --internal on the CLI or internal: true in your docker-compose.yaml).
Because the symptoms you're describing (no connectivity to stuff outside the new network, including the wider Internet) sound exactly like you did, but didn't realize what that option does...
It also means that ALL traffic incoming on a specific port of that VPS can only go to exactly ONE private wireguard peer. You could avoid both of these issues by having the reverse proxy on the VPS (which is why cloudflare works the way it does), but I prefer my https endpoint to be on my own trusted hardware.
For TLS-based protocols like HTTPS you can run a reverse proxy on the VPS that only looks at the SNI (server name indication) which does not require the private key to be present on the VPS. That way you can run all your HTTPS endpoints on the same port without issue even if the backend server depends on the host name.
This StackOverflow thread shows how to set that up for a few different reverse proxies.
Small correction: Pi lies between 2^1 and 2^2, so its floating-point exponent is 1. With all the mantissa bits cleared you'd be left with 1 * 2^1, not 1 * 2^0.
Have you considered putting alias htop=btop (or equivalent) in your shell profile?
And, interestingly, they lost $91 million last year. If the CEO had instead earned $100 million last year, the company have made a multi-million dollar profit (if only just). If it had been $10 million (still way overpaid for any single person, I'd argue), they'd be nearing the hundreds-of-millions-per-year profit scale.
I'll never understand companies paying their CEOs hundreds of millions while they're losing money hand over fist...
It's nice in theory, but I've had very little luck using it for the last few days.
I wouldn't be surprised if whatever instances it picks to send people to are soon afterwards rate limited because demand is too high relative to supply.
If this is something you run into often, it's likely still only for a limited number of servers? ssh and scp both respect .ssh/config, and I suspect (but haven't tested) that sftp does too. If you add something like this to that file:
Host host1 host2
Port 8080
then SSH connections to hosts named in that first line will use port 8080 by default and you can leave off the -p/-P when contacting those hosts. You can add multiple such sections if you have other hosts that require different ports, of course.
Aurora is no longer maintained, but it still works just fine. It's a Windows app, so not web-accessible or anything, but it's free. It only contains the SRD content by default (probably for legal reasons), but there's at least one publicly-accessible elements repository for it that you can find using your favorite search engine.
No idea about the Lemmy hosting bit, but I highly doubt that .com you got will renew at $1 going forward. Judging by this list it'll most likely be $9+ after the first year.
At $1/year, the registrar you used is taking a loss because they pay more than that to the registry for it. They might be fine with that for the first year to get you in the door, but they'd presumably prefer to be profitable in the long term.
