John Green would be rolling in his grave if he were dead

Have you seen the ai girlfriends/boyfriends communities? I genuinely think the rate of chatgpt induced psychosis is really high, even if it doesn’t lead to death

All Google would have to do is check what key an app is using on a user’s device and they can invalidate it. Someone made a youtube vanced 2 (not revanced)? Google can easily invalidate it for everyone using this process.

Even if I misunderstand how the key works and it’s more of a signature, it would mean that if you try to download an older app then it could fail bc the signature expired and isn’t maintained anymore. You also run into the same issue with not being renewed if Google chooses.

My point is it could effectively be a side loading killer, maybe not right away but the point of sideloading is the independence which this takes away

Yeah, bind two to up/down on rstick and you’ll have plenty

NOT REGEX NOOOO

Depending on the services, you should be able to make a backup and restore without needing to delete the real version until you’re sure everything is working

As someone who also started proxmox fairly recently, I found that the community has these really cool scripts that you can use to get started. Obviously you’re running bash scripts on your main node for some, so there are risks involved with that but in my experience it’s been great.

You’re not required to have a jury (as you mentioned), and the current lawyer meta for “complicated” cases (such as cryptocurrency cases that are seen as too technical or boring) is to request a bench trial.

A relatively recent example is Trump’s civil fraud case, where the prosecutor requested a bench trial. It was rumored that the defence attorney forgot a checkbox to make it a jury trial, but in reality they just chose not to file a motion.

I’ll share my experience with my very unprofessional but working setup.

I have two locations, both using retired PCs. I don’t need anything fancy, but some considerations could be GPU/encoding hardware if you wanted something like jellyfin/Plex. I use proxmox and proxmox backup server for managing everything and so far it’s been working well. Definitely not plug and play like an aio nas but that’s because a nas wasn’t my only goal as I needed cameras (frigate) and homeassistant.

I would highly recommend headscale/tailscale (as others have suggested) as it “just works” when setup in my experience. This enables safe remote access without opening any ports on your families networks so you can troubleshoot if something did break.

Regardless of which solution you decide to use, the most important part about having a backup is testing. If you can’t see when your backups fail or don’t know how to recover you may as well not have a backup.

I use headscale and it’s been working wonderfully for my nightly offsite backups and remote access.

I mean the joke is the subversion of gender roles, reversing it just makes it not funny.

The dev joke is fine, clearly that’s not a vibe coder but a developer who is lazy and wants job security. It’s just funny the contrast between the fields (especially since it’s much more harmful to the artists with the stealing of the art).

I love to hate on things but it’s just not that serious. If you don’t like it that’s fine but the quality doesn’t seem to be in freefall

It’s true, but I have A) family at home and B) the ability to (with the remote tools) stop prints, get screenshots at a consistent interval of time, and immediately get error messages. I accept the risks whenever I do decide to print unattended

A bunch of Haywood banks songs for sure

It definitely depends on the software, for example in matrix you can easily cause federation issues in some cases. this won’t blow up the fediverse, but it could impact the user experience if they rely on or interact with that instance.

Nice, glad to hear. Depending on your level of paranoia/quality of your power supply you may still want to use a UPS, or at minimum a surge protector.

If you’re still getting server restarts when switching to battery backups, I’d definitely look into a UPS if it bothers/worries you. Doesn’t have to be a big one either, just enough to survive switches.

I need a gif of a tungsten cube dropping from the top shelf of a vending machine and folding it in on itself

Yeah, I used to cry constantly as a kid and got so self conscious about it, thinking it’s not something to do as a man or wtv. Now it’s basically impossible to cry when I need it, extremely frustrating
