It turns out there is an intentionally-crippled DNS server for you: https://github.com/joohoi/acme-dns

acme.sh supports it: https://github.com/acmesh-official/acme.sh/wiki/dnsapi#dns_acmedns

Basically you set up an acme-dns server at myacme.com. It has two aspects to it: a TXT-only DNS server and a REST API. You do POST myacme.com/register, and it gives you an "account" with a subdomain, username and password, like for abcdef012345.myacme.com. The username and password let a program set TXT records for that subdomain.

Then you do a CNAME from _acme-challenge.shitposter.world to abcdef012345.myacme.com. Make sure you have an NS record from myacme.com to *.myacme.com to say that your acme-dns server is the authoritative source of records for abcdef012345.myacme.com (and obviously an A record for the acme-dns server itself).

Your acme.sh script will get the challenge from Let's Encrypt and put the TXT record at abcdef012345.myacme.com using the aforementioned credentials. Then when Let's Encrypt goes to check the challenge at _acme-challenge.shitposter.world, it follows the CNAME to abcdef012345.myacme.com, sees and validates the challenge TXT there, and issues your wildcard cert.

Get yourself an Edison bulb (incandescent, not LED). They're nice.

They're about the same as anything else in systemd, which is to say stable enough, but too verbose to set up for what it is, and it feels icky in general to use.

I know the feeling, and at least you have it set up. I know people who just say "cron and renew hooks are too complicated, I'll just remember to do it every few months, it doesn't take that long!" And while that mindset isn't objectively wrong, it's annoying and very lazy.

You don't have certificates set to auto-renew and reload the webserver?

Uhhhhhhh

And the ones speaking English speak it horribly, and not in an "I'm trying to learn" way, but rather an "I hate your language and will only put the bare minimum effort into learning it enough for you to sort of understand what I'm saying" way.

beanie babies, pogs, pokemon cards

Johnny's all about the Tex Mex.

The irony is that the "EBT being shut off" would actually mean a failure of socialism.

Howdy neighbor, early bird gets the worm, it's good to be a good neighbor who keeps his yard up!

VRRRRRRRRRRRR VRRRRRRRRRRRR VRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Every time I hear some story about Lucifer or Enki or the Serpent being the good guy who just wants to help humanity with knowledge, it sounds nice but then I remember that's also the same one who demands child sacrifice and other unspeakably horrible acts in exchange for said knowledge.

I wonder when it's going to happen

Starting November 1st, EBT cards will only work for purchases of mayonnaise and sunscreen.

Get ready to defend your local power substation.

They can accelerate their own substations and gas stations, I like having electricity and running water, etc.

Maybe we need to adopt the technology of our replacements and just have designated shitting streets instead
