But why can a theme make web requests?!

Why can a Word or Excel file execute shell code? Why does M$ SQL Server have xp_cmdshell?

Because we live in a broken world and nothing matters.

Because devs chose to live in this part of the world, dictated by M$ and other large companies, who just don’t care.

When selfhosting stuff, it’s just incredibly difficult to properly set this up while maintaining compatibility with http for other stuff. Usually you’ll have one reverse proxy (eg. nginx) handling http/https encryption and forwarding to a socket (or in case of docker, one of a dozen open ports on one of a hundred interfaces, fuck you docker), over http. The APIs themselves almost never have direct https support, and even if I wanted to manage them directly, certbot only supports reverse proxies directly. So you need to differentiate between api and non-api in the reverse proxy.

And searching for a german word always brings up dictionaries from german to english, instead of Wikipedia etc.

Install scripts are just the Linux versions of installer exes. Hard and annoying to read, probably deviating from standard behaviour, not documenting everything, probably being bound to specific distros and standards without checks, assuming stuff way too many times.

Chilling with nothing but my homeserver here. Backed up to the NAS, mirrored to my grandparents house. No charges, no misconfigurations, just Arch testing being more stable than any commercial service I know lol

That’s the level of an intern that has never even seen a command. Imagine not being able to literally cat a string with another string, aka. add -data_field first to a command.

Then probably Pydroid 3, as it supports TK, Kivy etc. If you actually want to compile and run various languages you could use Termux, as it basically exposes the fully fledged Linux machine better known as your Android.

Github is going to hell lol

Jetbrains’ IDEs. Cuz they’re Linux native, not by M$ and look nice and uniform IMO. For things that don’t require a full blown IDE I just use vim.

Ah yes I understand now!

Banks are the worst in this, the one website that should have secure passwords uses standards so low that KeePass can’t even go so low. I have to use a password I can remember, which may not actually be of a low standard but is in this case, considering it’s only 10 chars.
