I get your point but my gaming PC is specifically for gaming. If I could make it "dumber" with a more console-like experience that'd be a win for me.
For productivity I have a MacBook that I'm quite fond of along with a nice desk and docking setup if that's what I feel like. That isn't going away.
I'm just hoping it paves the way for a public release of Steam OS that I can install on my own hardware (I'm aware of Bazzite, etc.).
I'd have absolutely no reason to run Windows any longer, despite the fact my gaming PC does nothing but boot directly to Steam Big Picture mode.
Unfortunately I think Nvidia will continue to make this difficult.
Why can't you just have a long lived internally signed cert on your archaic apps and LE at the edge on a modern proxy? It's easy enough to have the proxy trust the internal cert and connect to your backend service that shouldn't know the difference if there's a proxy or not.
Or is your problem client side?
Automated certificates are relatively new and pretty neat. Killing off the certificate cartels is an added bonus.
You could try a path unit watching the cert directory (there are caveats around watching the symlinks directly) or most acme implementations have post renewal hooks you can use which would be more reliable.
You could try using the DNS challenge instead; I find it a lot more convenient as not all my services are exposed.
Have you seen this ridiculous violation (amongst many others) of the Hatch act?
I'm not from the US, but my understanding is that the democratic party only want one thing? Namely the continuation of subsidies for health care for the less fortunate (not undocumented immigrants).
Given the US is the only first world nation without Universal Health Care, that doesn't sound like "a bunch of shit" to me.
I have smart plugs from Innr, Samsung, Aqara (I think) and have never experienced the problem you're speaking of. Mine are all ZigBee -- not sure what yours are.
That said, I just got a bunch of Shelly EM Mini G4 and put them in some PowerPoints and they work great.
If you don't mind some basic wiring they're easy to set up.
