  • Good question!

    In the Home Operations Discord there's some very smart people who solved this problem inside kubernetes by checking if their NAS is online (through a Prometheus exporter named node exporter) and then scaling down their workloads that use it, automatically, using KEDA (an autoscaler for kubernetes)

    Depending on how your processes are orchestrated, you might be able to do something similar?

  • The Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP for short) stipulates that specially trained personnel must look after the servers that provide these services. And because the data on these servers is confidential and security-relevant, these administrators must also have a special security clearance that is only granted to US citizens.

    Such personnel are in short supply and correspondingly expensive. But what is Microsoft doing? As ProPublica recently uncovered, they hired cheap admins with the necessary certificates for server administration abroad. And they put ex-military personnel with security clearance at their side, who they also hired for minimum wages.

    They (untrained ex-military) were then supposed to carry out the actions specified by the trained (foreign) IT admins. They were also supposed to monitor what they were doing. But they were not sufficiently qualified for this.

    What the actual fuck?

    They apparently took the cheapest (IT talent) available – even if they lived in China. You read that correctly: In fact, Chinese IT specialists were administering the cloud servers of the US Department of Defense, among others. What could possibly go wrong?

  • I don't agree with /u/red-crayon-scribbles ' approach to memory safety, but what you're saying isn't entirely true either.

    It is possible to manipulate memory in ways that do not conform to Rust's lifecycle/ownership model. In theory, this can even be done correctly.

    The problem is that in practice, this leads to the following, many of which were committed by some of the most highly skilled C developers alive, including major kernel contributors:

  • [Discussion] What are you playing on your Deck? - August 2025

    Jump

  • I just finished Crysis and Crysis: Warhead. Crysis took the c1launcher mod to start, Warhead just needed the env vars.

    Hope I'll have the energy to dive back into Death Stranding soon. If not, I'll have another shot at MGS1. Last time I got to the sniper duel (on my phone with RetroArch and an old Xbox controller) and then when I got my Deck, the save refused to load. Been long enough that I wouldn't mind starting over.

    I never played the original MGS series, first I got into it was MGS: Peace Walker on PSP, absolutely loved it, got hundreds of hours in it, then did a bit of MGS V but never finished that either.

  • Oooh XWVM is awesome! I've seen it and am thoroughly impressed but haven't dared to try it on Linux yet, let alone on the Deck.

    Could you write a blog or a post here of how to get it to work on plain SteamOS?

  • Thank you. I know most people agree and I'm missing something so my explanation of my current POV is basically me asking to be corrected on this.

    Was a bit disappointed with the downvotes but I could have seen it coming when explaining my unpopular position.

    Thank you for your understanding and for promoting dialogue

  • Thank you for your reply!

    I understand the concern of having 2FA and Password vault under 1 account. This creates a single factor to access everything and is indeed a security risk.

    I should have been clearer, but what I meant is: "Why is the use of Proton Pass considered problematic, with the reason 'dont put all eggs in one basket'?"

    I just realized it's because of the same thing: mail is used as MFA too.

  • If selfhosting the family chat is not a goal in itself and it's about privacy or being independent from big tech, just take the loss and go to Signal. Much smoother experience than any self-hosted messenger can provide for now.

  • It's incredibly small. Highly developed urban areas, great cycling infrastructure, better trains than Germany, mild climate year-round, some parks and the rest of the country houses the highest concentrations of cows, pigs and chickens.

    Housing prices are even worse than the rest of Europe, income tax is high, cost of living is high, but still worth it for many people due to good work-life balance, child-focused education, good infrastructure, mild climate and basically almost Scandinavian culture, but with more sunlight.

    We can be quite closed off and hard to get in touch with, and even rude. I usually tell Anglo-Saxons that we may seem autistic compared to their social norms.

  • I don't really get the "all eggs in one basket" problem with Proton Pass / Proton Auth.

    Am I wrong in thinking that it depends on the specific service?

    Some services are very hard to migrate and have a lot of vendor lock-in. For example, your e-mail address (if not using a custom domain) cannot be changed overnight, and it will probably take years to move everything over. Think carefully about where you put your e-mail!

    I understand that cloud storage, especially when using non-standard formats for online collaboration, such as GSuite or Proton Docs, is also hard to move to a different provider. When choosing such an option, think carefully of how hard it will be to migrate away. Have a plan.

    But switching between Bitwarden and Proton Pass is at most an hour of work. How is that problematic? Both apps store data locally so they continue to work when the provider's servers are offline.

    Yes, Bitwarden has a self-host option with Vaultwarden, Proton Pass does not. So if you want to start using that, just export from Proton Pass and Proton Auth, import to Vaultwarden, sign in on your devices, and done. I don't see the problem of using Proton Pass.
