  • For me hard drives could potentially be bought second hand. However, it is is not coming from someone who does this stuff at a professional level (refurbished in other words), I am not sure if I can trust it. Not because of the quality but because what was in it. Every time I get a refurb drive I have the bad habit to check what was the previous data if readable. One day I am sure I will get a nasty surprise...

  • I would be way more happy if they, anthropic and a few others got reduced out of existente

  • If you would like to go on a different route, a mini PC with opnsense is also a good choice. If you happen to have a small form factor PC somewhere that can be added a nic card to have at least 2 Ethernet ports, this would totally work

  • Can someone make a crying bro meme? Surely fits this (I have 0 meme skills. Just like my social skills)

  • Law in particular is such a gnarly subject that you really want to have someone who knows what they are saying about anything. And even then they can be wrong too

  • There was a piece a while ago of a guy that went to expired domains in Belgium, happened to buy an old domain from the police, and all of a sudden, started to have emails from the police with a mail server. Crazy how no one checked the domain.

    Edit: found the URL here. And there was other institutions hit as well, not just police

  • That is not a good idea. Demanding ransom from the police never works out. Also, this gives quite a bad vibe to the dutch police as well (or this precinct in particular), since someone cannot verify where to send the files first.

  • I wish half of the time at least a project status update was written in a fun way. Thanks for developing this further!

  • You are not wrong that is not mandatory. However, my advice usually for people starting on self hosting that most often than not it is better to over spec a bit more always on HDD, and second the ram. But since prices for ram went to shit, over spec the HDD is still an option for some.

  • Tell that to my arr stack

  • pls?

  • No kidding. At some point I was doing a project for Germans in a b2b company, and I was told "yeah you know, we also have to account that people will receive offers via fax". I was stunned. Fax? In 2025?? And not the Llkind you deliver in the toilet??? Holy.

  • You definitely have a point here. Software has to be usable if it going to have wide adoption by the people. Sometimes I see recommendations being thrown around without even thinking of it fits the needs and/or user expertise and willingness to make something work. But to be clear, just because one piece of software does not fit your needs does not mean it has to be changed to fit your needs. But if it is complex, clunkly and/or unintuitive, it is only going to be usable by a niche. And if this is the case, stop telling your grandma to spin a matrix server or xmpp and do not tell her she is an idiot because she does not have the expertise or time to make it work.

  • I think the food analogy is a good one here. I have debated personally a lot about this false sense of choice, when in reality you are bombarded with every psychological tactic to keep you hooked. Instagram in this sense is no different. If it lawsuit leads to somewhere, I do not know, however at some point the whole manipulative algorithms should be addressed (but by who and when are the biggest questions)

  • CPU overhead is quite well known and actually damages a lot the arc cards' position on the budget class

  • As usual with all of these companies: only believe when you see the changes

  • Does anyone has an easy way to put windows 98 sounds on Linux? I would love to have it for one day (and probably revert after, just enough to deal with nostalgia)

  • If my phone would feel this soft carpet texture when I type or swipe i would love it for sure

  • And where does the gold start goes into? Thats right, it goes into the square hole!

  • I believe right now there are discussions about it on Europe to adopt more FOSS projects. The biggest problems I see happening here is who effectively maintains this, as well who gives the money (and incentives) to keep the projects alive. As of now the German government does have a program for the incentives (do not recall if they do the people's part). Hopefully it becomes more wide and clear how this will be going forward.

    Also, I do not think it would be such a small win. If anything is very significant. If you can change at that stage the tools used, eventually propagates further into the working force at some point.
