Sorry to be an idiot but what recently happened to make Portugal not want Americans?

Have you not been screaming about guns for as long as anyone alive can remember?

I just checked it out and unfortunately it only allows changing the notifications per app, not disabling per app. Thank you though

An 'island' is Island's way of referring to the isolated environment for apps that will run in "work mode".

Through a spokesperson, the company said it did not think the ministry was authorized to rule on short-term rentals

Then who tf is, airbnb? Who is authorized???

Ive read the comments, and I love you as a human so much for helping the kitties (and the way you talk about them is hilarious)!

Ok, this is super interesting and a bit of a weird coincidence, because on the page you linked it mentions that they are also a community of the blind and it is really important to me to have my page be accessible to visually impaired people, and I already made some steps into making it screen-reader compatible. I still need feedback from them though because not being blind myself I cant be sure if what I used to test the screen-reading is actually what the blind community uses, nor if it would actually be useful for them!

Do they offer hosting and ssh access? If so, how can I go about setting all that up?

Edit: Looking at their donations page it seems that they may be partly linked to the USA which I want to avoid:

HOW DO I DONATE?

You can send cash (USD, YEN or EUR), cheque or a money order to:

SDF Public Access UNIX System
PO Box 17355
Seattle WA 98127

Even though their server is in Germany if they have any relation to the USA its a shame.

Thanks. Hetzer seems like its got a good deal (1.76 euro / month max for the lowest tier which should be way more than enough for what I want to do) but when I looked at the scaleway price page I was greeted with several sections like bare metal and compute. Which one should I be looking for to just host a simple webpage? Also, having done a little more research into hosting, I guess I will be going with nginx and gunicorn (correct me please if this is overkill) so I guess having ssh access to the server is necessary. I've got linux experience so thats not a learning curve for me at all.

Edit: Also for hetzer, looking at their most basic tier in more detail, they have this following feature listed:

Symantec Basic SSL Certificate, duration 1 year
You can equip yourself with a free basic SSL certificate simply by going to the "SSL Manager" menu tab in your account on the konsoleH user interface.

The offer only stands if Symantec can supply a free certificate for the domain.

Even though I'm not actually reading any sensitive user data or storing anything, I think having https will inspire confidence and is just generally better to have than not, so how can I make sure that my domain is elligible for the free certificate?

This bot that posts all this stuff unrelated to the community is getting on my nerves. Mods should take action

Just report the post

Im sorry, but while interesting i fail to see what relevance anything this bot has posted here has to the community

[–] promitheas@programming.dev 3 points 7 months ago

Im going to give it a try right now

You will probably need a compositor. In this case it would do what it sais on the tin - "composite" (add up) the alacritty window with whatever is behind it.
