Help I’m destitute, what should I do? Step one: buy Bitcoin.

Imo it’s only a tool to understand and explain situations, not so much a tool to solve problems. Definitely understanding the forces that make up the conflict might help you solve a problem, but the solution will depend on what kind of forces are involved.

This is slightly off topic but adding lanes does not alleviate traffic in the long term at all. The effect diminishes quickly and vanishes after just five years.

Come on, this one is funny but why pretend it was ever made by a right wing person in earnest? Everything about it screams classic mocking meme.

Again The issue on the repo. The developers recommend just using the app feature of the browsers to get similar functionality without the security concerns.

I honestly just did it to try to get cleaner logs having the container only be responsible for the proxying.

If you look at the repo, the very first line in the readme links to an issue that briefly explains why you should care.

Unmaintained software comes in two categories:

1. The software is done. It does exactly what it was meant to do and it was written in a language and in such a way as to be pretty future proof. Examples are some basic code libraries or command line utilities.
2. The software had to be updated all the time to keep up with changing environments and security problems, so the dev got sick of it and dropped it. Or a better solution came along so the developer felt free to finally drop the burden.

Nativefier falls in the second category and the second clause. Don’t use it.

I’ll try that, but since I haven’t been able to find any related issues I’m pretty sure it’s a configuration error on my part. Hehe the regretfully long post. Next step will probably be to open an issue on authentik’s GitHub but since I think it’s a pebkac I would prefer not to waste their time.

You asked for my python script but now I can’t seem to load that comment to reply directly to it. Anyway, here’s the script, I haven’t bothered to upload the repo anywhere. I’m sure it isn’t perfect but it works fine for me. The action for opening evolution when you click the tray icon is specific to hyprland so will probably need to be modified to suit your needs.

If you want to do this, what you probably want is to pump your logs into a log drain, something like betterstack is good. They then allow you to set up discrepancy thresholds and can send you emails when something seems to be out of the ordinary. There’s probably a self hosted thing that works the same way but I’ve never found a simple setup. You can do the whole Prometheus, influxdb, grafana setup but imo it’s too much work, and then you still have to set up email smtp separate from that.
