And for the people with internet, tv, radio or access to newspapers:

the police can make you look at the camera to unlock your phone (for example to check if you’re aiding refugees from the ethnic lgbtq cleansing) but they cant (easily and in some countries legally) force you to type in a pin and password. I know the point is a bit moot for a pc as at that point the will just rip out your drive, assuming its not encrypted.

Still, worth mentioning imo.

Thank you. So it was clickbait more or less.

It still is somewhat relevant as the IP system is a racket that needs to be brought down at any cost.

The article is very long and not that interesting a read. Maybe someone can post what was so interesting about it

We should hang out sometime. You sound pleasant! :)

You hit the nail on the head.

Now you need to be able to counter the manipulation happening every day through media, other people, etc.

A decade ago I stopped watching TV. Everyone asked me why. I said I‘m not watching commercials. Guess what I do with platforms that push ads!

We really need to talk about outlawing commercials that arent pure product information. Good looking guy gets chased by beautiful women when using *** bodyspray? Cue moron: „but its sarcasm, duh!“ no its not. Not for your subconcious. It is manipulation.

Btw I was trained by a psychologist (a guy paid by the car company, who is a licensed therapist and has a licensed practice) to manipulate people into buying cars. Not through arguments or superior manufacturing but pure tone of voice, using familiar wording, analyzing their weak points. This stuff is dark. Needless to say I dont do that job anymore. No amount of money is worth manipulating people into buying stuff they dont need.

This shit needs to go if we want to live free at some point (let alone make it through fascism and a planet on fire).

You dont even need special nvme‘s. You can buy mid range ones.

Best is if they dont fail together so they should best not be the same batch or have the same age and write amount.

I do highly recommend to have a raid array for any server ssd since they fail unpredicably and without any signs.

I‘m building this for some time now. I run a raid 1 on mechanical disks for file storage and have an ssd for the logic/database stuff. Have bought a second ssd and will put them in a raid as well bc limited lifespan.

Yikes! We have a live one.

Apple is breaking international law with their software. I suggest you start reading about it and not accuse others of ideology without having any idea what you‘re talking about.

Edit: another bot. 130 comments, zero posts. Thats the third one in as many days after two years of silence. Zuck is running interference it seems.

iMessage is crap as well. Its used to strengthen apples illegal monopoly. They are being sued for this.

Signal is pretty much the best for low tech users. Folks with more advanced knowledge and higher resilience expectations use matrix. Both have strong encryption and work on every device known to man.

You wanted to sync passwords and keys. I suggested bitwarden. Its foss and works well even the hosting is free which I consider awesome.

Simple solutions being unnecessary expensive on apple is a feature, not a bug.

Yes i have used termius. It is okay but iphone is just crap for poweruser/admin work, period. I now use a postmarketOS phone for that which just runs linux.

This sounds like corpo bullshit. Apple is a shitpile and so is microsoft but you can absolutely make it work. Bitwarden is free for individuals and works great for this. Its open source and you could even self host it but you dont need to. Good luck. Consider checking linux since that corpo trash is proliferating all things fucked up atm. (Microsoft, apple and google are fascism supporters)

Definitely not nobody but statistically VERY FEW people will have this combination:

• pop!os (fight me!)
• script that limits accumulator charge to 80% on asus laptop
• script that turns on vpn if out of home and kicks off a backup if at home (through wifi ssid)

Edit: nice try to fingerprint me, big tech. You succeeded! /j

Exactly how I see it and did it. Thanks for mentioning this.

I only had to read like three or four sentences to arrive at the conclusion: yes, you should absolutely self host and you‘re already pretty far.

Depending on your location, I suggest you first visit your local hackspace, if that exists. I have had a similar journey and it took me years to arrive at my current state. Had I learned about „hacker communities“ earlier, I would have taken a very different and less stressful path.

Never heard of that. Feel free to share info.

Plex is just really polished and kind of makes sharing with low tech friends easy imo. But switching to proper foss is on my list.

Okayyyy… thats not great. I just read one of the threads and thats scary.

The person(s?) maintaining this seems to be VERY BAD at communicating. They did fix the auto start problem but did not at all discuss this from what I see. Thats not great.

This might prove useful if the EU goes forward with chat control and maybe DPI further down the road.

Pretty straightforward. You need to host your stuff on your own hardware, ideally. You need good backups. You obviously can pay someone to do it for you but it does add complexity. In any case, streaming services are dead men walking by this point I think.

Phenomenal work as always!

My suggestion is mood and topic based prompts derived from the current trajectory of the sub, for example:

Always compared to the day before

• more swearwords = stormy weather
• more anti corporate speak = more punky/anarchist pictures
• more friendly words = sunny weather
• more people joining = more ships in the background
• more posts = more loot/gold in the background

This is pretty complex but would give it a unique adaptive vibe instead of randomness alone.

Just an idea. Thanks for reading. :)

You can doubt all you want. I changed it from 777 to 700 and back again because it broke. Couldnt find the user in the container immediately. Will probably just migrate it to a volume and be done with it.
