Posted about it yesterday already. But it looks like archive.today shows the default page of #Apache #webserver on #Ubuntu. The alternative domain name archive.is instead redirects with a 301 - Moved Permanently to a new domain krola.org, a website apparently comparing pet rabbit species?? It's also interesting, that the redirect to the new domain responds with an #HTTP header server: nginx/1.18 (Ubuntu). Apparently, the default Apache landing page also returns the same HTTP header information on the server. Perhaps the landing page is a decoy/deflection?

Anyone on #infosecexchange has any speculations on the website?

🔴 **Question ❓**

Is it not strange that even after the mass proliferation of mobile phones and their cameras there has not been one credible image taken of the Himalayan Yeti? This leads me to think, what were people who reported sightings all those years ago actually witnessing?

Fedi, I know you are begging to answer this. What's a good #Linux distro for a retired non-techie who's only ever used windows?

I was just talking to my neighbor and he said he tried to upgrade from #windows 10 to windows 11 but got some message that his computer might not be compatible and might "lose services." If he can't upgrade to 11, I pitched him Linux as an alternative to buying a new computer because apparently support ends in October.

Hello Fediverse, I would like to ask for some recommendations please:

Does a simple and lightweight alternative to google.drive for use on a Win desktop PC exist, based in EU or New Zealand, for upload, update & tracking of shared files?

1) To update files with unchanged public link

2) To see if and when the file was opened through the external link either for reading or for download, to count the uses

Many thanks ^.^

@tulsa I have some old books that are library editions. They were never sold as hardback versions but my library copies are hardback and have a sticker on the inside that lists them as "Bound to Stay Books" outside of Jacksonville, Illinois.

It seems like they took soft cover books all over the country and rebound them as hardbacks for libraries so they would be more durable.

As for places local to Tulsa though I have no idea unfortunately.

#question to the solo devs: When have you determined that you are a senior software developer?

My last job as an employee ended around autumn 2020. I've been working solo since. I firmly believe, if you develop the skillset and experience, it doesn't matter whether you reached this in a solo environment or team environment.

What's your stance on that subject?

Does anyone know why this is? Here's a post from my other account. When I view it from that account, I can see loads of faves and boosts, but when I view it from this account (I followed my old account just in case it was that), it only shows 7? Does this instance have a lot of others that it defederates from? Or is it some other reason?
