That's true, but if OP is European and received this Mail, it is a GDPR violation regardless of if the content is relevant or not. As far as I know, not a lawyer.

Sub 1 million is not going back, they are just reducing the scope. Unity is dead

Linux only needs a reboot if you want to update the kernel, normally.

Matrix isn't the alternative for discord. Others have been named.

Matrix is a chat with a high regard for encryption, more an alternative to Whatsapp and signal then discord.

Good reason to just use godot

Working on my (private) servers is a hypnotic activity for me. It can be interesting or I can hate it and still want to do it. It can also be relaxing. Last time when I was sick in bed I played around with wireguard VPN configs all day to get a routed VPN for my VPS. I'm going to fix it today because something doesn't work the way it should.

Also, I learn Japanese. 日本語が大好き!

After Bram Moolenaar, the legendary creator of vim, it might just hit another legendary figure in the world of OSS. It's true that he is controversial, but he has my respect and best wishes.

Even if they return to the old standard, they have shown to be too unreliable and ready for scummy corporate decisions.

Send them the GDPR horror letter

That's not the main part of the article, just a footnote, for anyone wondering.

The flaw resides in the glibc’s syslog function, an attacker can exploit the flaw to gain root access through a privilege escalation.

The vulnerability was introduced in glibc 2.37 in August 2022.

How does the opinion piece move?

They betrayed their core values. Hypocrites to me.

I currently bought an old desktop from a friend that I use as my Homeserver.

  • I bought 3 HDDs for storage
  • I rent a VPS
  • I rented Proton to host mail for my domain, but switched to netcup groupware because that sucked.
  • Some domains
  • Electricity

Wow I thought it was way more.

One time costs: ~500€ Monthly costs: ~15€ Plus electricity, but I have solar. I assume it's about 150€/year

But I'm a cheap selfhosted, but eventually, I will have a huge ass Enterprise Level Rack in my basement.

I am/was? A moderator of r/NintendoDE, still backed out, until they take us over or comply with the demands.

Probably we'll be taken over at some point, but I feel like Reddit has lost its place for me, and a large part of the trust that I out there too.

X is a truly unique sign, very good choice. Very recognizable

It's just the webapp. If we want the webapp we use a browser.

Finally. There are some, but it's only a small selection.

Obsidian for note taking, Bitwig studio for audio recording and processing.

This really saddens me. LoL is a game that will forever connect me to some of my best friends, I played hundreds if not thousands of hours, even through I have not played nearly as much over recent years. We even did go to public viewing of the world's finals.

If they force this on us, then it will mean that my last game of lol was played months ago.

That's a joke right?

If not: It does not matter what hash I send, because it's cryptographically impossible to tell what the hashed thing is. That is the whole point of a hash.

Also: sending a hash over the network instead of a password or whatever the source material is would be a bad practice from security perspective, if not a directly exploitable vulnerability. It would mean that anyone that knows the hash can pretend to be you, because the hash would be used to authenticate and not whatever the source material is. The hash would become the real password and the source material nothing more than a mnemonic for the user. Adding to that: the server storing the hash would store a plaintext password.

That's not true. It may be true in r/technology, but reddit hasn't won. It's just that those still on Reddit didn't make it.

We showed that we care, and we showed that we can dump them. Reddit is currently dying. It may be a slow process, but I don't think the enshittification of reddit will stop.

Good news, hope the Turks get that idiot out of the office.

You can't just say that FF on Android is less secure and not give any sources for that claim.

I mean, you can, but that makes your claim not have any value.

I am a young developer, NeoVim is my choice for every type of text editing. Vim is an amazing tool on par with many of the greatest software products in existence.

This man's legacy will be honored. :wq

OSS is heavily undermaintained, always has been. But the world hasn't exploded from it yet (somehow).

Why don't just go to debian.org?

Idk what people have about chromium tabs. Firefox does tabs just fine.

Also, edge does not come with most os, just w*ndows

What is the point of a competing standard to html/https? It works pretty well? And CSS and JS are a big part of modern websites (sometimes a bit too big of course, but still).

Https is lightweight too, if you just don't add tons of CSS and JS dependencies?

Video call is expensive, and frankly, if I'm gonna sign up at a private service, I'm not going to make a damn video call.

Email is not enough to go against spam. Email addresses are basically an Infinite Ressource.

Other verified factors are nothing concrete. Sure we could all use security hardware keys, but what's the chances that my mom has one?

Besides software mentioned by others:

NeoVim: The single most perfect editor of all time.

QOwnNotes: A pretty good note taking app for markdown notes with tons of extension and options. But tbh Obsidian is still the gold standard.

SSH: It's everywhere. Controlling my servers from remote is a trivial task. Also, it does tunneling.

Syncthing: Syncing files around has never been easier than with syncthing. And it's decentralized, encrypted, private.

Kitty: A great Terminal Emulator

Just a heads up, you can download all of wikipedias Text in a couple Gigabyte iirc. So we could easily "fork" and mirror it.

Nothing can ever be always secure.

They make money with people looking for dates, not with people having found them.

Nowadays, people buy them out of free will. They give them names and ask them to play Despacito.

This is pretty horrible to hear as someone working in security. Just because it works does not mean you should do it.

I imagine her data gets lost multiple times per year.

I'd recommend debian - the universal operating system.

If your software does not exist for debian, your software does not exist. (Ubuntu is just debian with extra corpo flavour)

They could just invest in a solar farm or something, they are just a lot more economical.

Nuclear is okay, but the costs compared to renewables are very high, and you have to put a lot of effort and security into building a reactor, compared to a solar panel that you can basically just put up and replace if it snaps.

You probably know this discussion already through.

Edit: Glad to see a nice instance of the discussion going here.
