Do I need a second domain to run my own authoritative dns server?
  • I don't use godaddy, so I'm only guessing here. Have you tried to enter the name (even though there is no way it would find them) and then see if it figures out it can't look them up and maybe then it'll prompt for an IP instead?

  • Trump campaign celebrates judge's ruling on court date for documents case
  • "The judge argued that the DOJ’s request for a Dec. 11 trial date was 'atypically accelerated and inconsistent with ensuring a fair trial.' Yet somehow her initial date of August 14th 2023 wasn't "atypically accelerated"?

  • Regarding the recent Lemmy hack \*Update\*
  • If you log in and it doesn't show your username, you might have to clear your cookies for midwest.social and login again. I had to do that in Firefox anyway.

  • What are these “finial” looking things mounted to the roof area of homes on the East Coast [SOLVED]
  • They are "snow birds". It breaks up snow as it melts and falls off the roof so it doesn't come down in giant sheets.

  • Suggestions for selfhosted recipe manager?
  • I have been pretty happy with tandoor recipes. It and mealie are pretty similar. It doesn't have a dedicated mobile app, but it is a progressive web app, and ihas worked well on my phone.

    I chose tandoor because it did something that mealie didn't at the time I installed. But I don't recall what that was.

  • So uh I am old and easily confused—what does “rule” mean in a fediverse context and why is it in the titles of so many posts? Please take pity and explain it to this frail geriatric millennial. TIA
  • From my even more geriatric gen-x understanding: I'm guessing you are referring to /c/196 posts. Which has a single rule of having to post something if they visit the community. So people are titling "rule" because they are posting to follow the rule.

    I ended up filtering that community out, because it was so much random noise when I'm trying to look at "all"

  • Self Hosted ebook server?
  • calibre-web as a web front-end to calibre is what Ive been using.

  • Thank you all for your patience!
  • I am a Linux sysadmin (Redhat and fedora mostly) at a local university for over 20 years. I would be happy to help in any sysadmin tasks.

    I thought about setting up my own Lemmy instance. I've already set up my own matrix server and mastodon (gotosocial) server for only me, and I thought I'd give someone else's lemmy instance a shot instead of building my own this time.

  • What do you think (this person's) username means, without looking it up?
  • I like @misnina@lemmy.ml's interpretation. But I had to comment on yours since mine is only 2 letters different. Though mine is pretty obvious where it came from :)
