Useless website hey3/7/2024 I blab a lot - time to end this-sorry for the length. Even if it’s “Do it like this and you won’t need to run docker…”. My wife and 2 sons are both programmers so if any programming/scripting would be involved I can get some help but I’d rather do it myself as an admin and for the learning experience so without programming and scripting would be ideal.Īny takers to comment about what you think I should do and how to get it done? I am open to suggestions for alternative methods to get this done if anyone has any ideas. Total used free shared buff/cache available (I assume on Linux this is enough) ~$ free -h The Linux box is an old Dell Core 2 Duo 3.1Ghz with 4GB ram. The windows server is an i7 2600 OC’d to 4.3GHz with 16GB ram The mail server is mostly to send/receive emails from Word Press website (I don’t expect such if any:-) and one user account (me - I will use it for my own personal email). Are you a fan of The Useless Web, well heres how they all happened Find out all about the Useless websites on The Useless Web. I assume a low volume mail server won’t kill it to much but I’d rather put it all on Linux. I also have a Windows 2012R2 server that doesn’t do much except act as internal DNS here at home to about 30 networked devices. Is it possible to retain my current Linux/lamp setup AND install a mail-server in docker and keep their various config files/databases and everything separate so as to not overwrite my web related files?Īs I said I do not have a separate Linux box to run the mail server on. We have no idea about the purpose behind this. It’s just cats falling down the screen, with many bouncing off the bottom. Cat Bounce is one of the weirdest websites out there. I would like to install a mail server and have it run web-mail (exposed to the world…sigh…scary thing that for me anyways) also on 443 (doesn’t have to be - it’s just cleaner). Tim Holman, the creator of The Useless Web, started making this website while locked up inside during a hurricane in 2012. My website currently runs on port 80 redirected to 443 - on my firewall I forward 80/443 to the web server. What I would like to do but know if it is possible before I spend weeks reading about docker. I am lucky enough to have 5 PC’s at my disposal but all but 1 of them has other jobs so only one Linux box. I know it’s an old statement (been saying it for 30 years:-) - If Linux would only run games like windows does, just games, I’d switch in a second. That being said, sometimes I may sound like I know more than I actually do - please treat me as a nim-wit when explaining and thank you all. Currently, I run Ubuntu 18.04 LTS using lamp/Word Press to self-host a small useless website - I did it for the learning experience and the fun.Ībout myself: Mainly a Windows (35 years) user (work/games/research) I’ve been experimenting with Linux for about 30 years off and on (Red Hat 1.0 was my first taste) - not enough to become a master, more than enough to become a slightly above average user. I don’t think this will be the last time I mess with checkboxes in a game, thats for sure.I just started getting interested in docker. Cat Bounce is one of the very first websites on the useless web, and has been on the site right from the start of time, delighting millions with falling cats from the sky, which, if I’m honest, we all need every now and then. I guess it relies on a little RNG and no misclicks.Ĭheckbox Race is most certainly open sourced although I guess all in all I would consider it ‘complete’, there would be room for some css accent colors, and perhaps something to make the mobile experience a little better. If I cheat with tabs (I did consider putting something in here to stop this, or at least alert people tabs were used in their score) I can get under 15 seconds, otherwise well into the 45-1 minute mark. I have to have played this about 1000 times, mostly to test the individual pieces are all working as intended. If anything checkbox race is annoying and challenging rather than enjoyable, though I guess some people also enjoy those things. When it comes down to it, I’m not quite sure… in a way checkbox race is entertainment but because it’s so monotonous and hard to really race through quickly I feel like we’re more into the territory of art vs a game. I had previously explored this idea with checkbox olympics which unfortunately remains largely incomplete, but wanted to make a stand alone experience. I can’t really explain it much more than that, I like the element and want to make things with it. Something has always drawn me to the browsers native checkbox element, the blue checkbox for some reason appeals to me and really the simplicity of the action and quick response. Why checkboxes, why not dropdowns or something else?
