FUSE and the disk quota

by hellosmile6＠tilde.team

I have several FUSE mounts; do they count against the disk quota? Just checking, because I have an sshfs directory mounted with the root directory of another system.

For those who don't against bash (You're outnumbered)

by hellosmile6＠tilde.team

Here's the stats: https://hellosmile6.tilde.team/cgi-bin/shells2.sh (https://hellosmile6.tilde.team/cgi-bin/shells2.sh) Looks like bash is the #1 shell, with over 1000 users. Although dash looks like it's barely used, all `sh` users (25 as of now) use dash, even if they don't realize it. If anyone knows how to sort the entries better, please let me know.

bsd.tilde.team

by hellosmile6＠tilde.team

Why can't I connect to bsd.tilde.team? Was my SSH authorized_keys not copied over? They should be copied, team/makeuser@master:makeuser [Line 73] (https://tildegit.org/team/makeuser/src/commit/71aa43583c15155de393e93070997…)

Using mutt and cron to text yourself the weather

by DJ Chase

Hi all, In the spirit of this list's rejuvenation, I thought I'd share a fun project I did recently with ~team. For context: I use a flip-phone (it's much less distracting than a smartphone), so I cannot use an app or browser to check the weather when getting dressed every morning. And I can't call NOAA to get the weather because the dial-a-forecast number for my state is out of service. So, I made a script that texts me the weather and made a cronjob to run that every morning. The script was surprisingly simple: #!/bin/sh WEATHER="/tmp/$(uuidgen)" curl --silent https://wttr.in/<LOCATION>.png?1Fqn > "$WEATHER" mutt -a "$WEATHER" -- 8005551234(a)mms-gateway.example rm "$WEATHER" I used wttr.in here because its api is increadibly simple (it's literally the same thing as its UI). This does mean, though, that I had to send it as an image because wttr returns formatted text that wraps horrible. Many cell providers have an email to SMS/MMS gateway, so it was really easy to send a text; it should be easy to find this via a search engine. I also used mutt here instead of something POSIXly correct to make attachments simpler — this is just a hack, after all. Cheers, -- DJ Chase (~u9000) They, Them, Theirs

by hellosmile6＠tilde.team

I'm setting up an email client (Sending using the web client), and I'm not sure if I should use SMTP or SMTPS. Which is better for security? https://tilde.team/wiki/email#:~:text=smtp%3A%20smtp.tilde,port%20465%20(tl… (https://tilde.team/wiki/email#:~:text=smtp%3A%20smtp.tilde,port%20465%20(tl…)

What does borg do?

by hellosmile6＠tilde.team

I noticed it in top. What does it do, exactly? It seems like it backs up content, but what content? Sorry if I'm using the mailing list wrong.

[tildeteam] bsd.tilde.team updates

by Ben Harris

hey ~teammates, if you're new to the team and haven't heard about the freebsd server that we maintain for ~team users. it's somewhat barebones, but has web- and mailservers that are up and running, ready to serve php and static files from ~/public_html. this is the process that i use to migrate user accounts: https://gist.github.com/benharri/2a515dbde2dfdf3294dffe7b1be56e67 ~/.ssh/authorized_keys is copied over from tilde.team proper, meaning you can ssh to bsd.tilde.team with the same keys that you use here. there's also an inspircd node running there for the tilde.chat network, so you can connect to localhost/6667 there as well. i plan on using this list as a place to post updates and other info. holler here if you need anything or have any package requests etc. ~ben
