I guess this is one time where I’ll hope for corporate greed to win.

I’m sorry you had a pipe burst. I hope you’re able to fix that without too much pain.

My wife had bought tickets to all three as a Christmas present. Unfortunately the blizzard got in the way so we missed the whole thing. :’-(

At least we were able to get refunds.

I’d suggest looking at 3 things:

1. CAPTCHA. Not a perfect solution and AI will beat most of it soon, but it will help.
2. Anti-bot tools. Something that will do the equivalent of miring up AI web crawlers.
3. Identity systems. Not in the sense of a verifiable ID like a driver’s license, but in the sense of establishing a strong link between a pseudonymous ID and the community it owns or interacts with.

It’s membership association software. It includes modules for membership payments and donor payments.

Fewer lists are probably better. I have several, but I only use the default reminders list and a grocery list called “grocery”

I have shared lists with my family for things like school and medical (grocery is shared too), but I’m the only one that looks at them, so I’ve quit using them.

If you have a lot of lists, then you’ll have to decide which list to add the reminder to, and that’s extra friction that you don’t want.

Look into Single Sign-On services (SSO) like Authelia, Authentik, or KeyCloak. Most SSO tools do the sorts of things you’re looking for. Some will talk to the native UNIX user store. I do agree with the others, though: if you’re this far along, then it’s time to spin up LDAP and SSO, but this might be the same tool in your case.

Right now, I’m using Obsidian. I think I’d like to transition to keeping docs in a wiki, but I worry that it’s part of the self-hosted infrastructure. In other words, if the wiki’s down, I no longer have the docs that I need to repair the wiki.

30 years with Linux myself. Glad you’re here! Keep loving forward!

It was a constant part of my Saturday mornings. It was stupid, but there was just enough lore to keep us all waiting for the next episode.

I liked the small cameos in the maze battle scene. The characters from the 1980’s cartoon show made an appearance, even if they didn’t say anything.
