Maybe we should be looking at the larger picture here this is exactly why Signal or any other privately owned centralized messaging system can never be trusted. Stop using Signal or WhatsApp.

Look at alternatives like Matrix that are immune to this sort of thing.

I just did the same thing 100 bucks 32gb ram I had lying around, still very cheap. Managed 4.7 GHz overclock with my existing 8350 cooler. It’s the best CPU with DDR3 though I hear there are comparable xeons.

They definitely can track you just based on your RF profile a lot of big stores have these orb things that aggregate everything… Bluetooth, Cellular, WiFi signals and can track you wherever you go in the store along with video, at which point you buy alcohol and a computer scans your ID or you use a credit card and bam you are fucked. ID barcodes also include your address. It’s also the easiest one to fake.

At home I leave it down, of I’m at a dive bar or something I leave the seat up so the next guy won’t piss all over the seat. That benefits everyone.

Compared to what? Most services do not run PID1

Oh it has internet time sync. But the problem is… connecting to wifi with invalid time is problematic. There are internet check endpoints with certificates that can’t be verified. On the off chance that it does connect, I get a zillion certificate errors from different background processes.

Honestly, it doesn’t cost much more than fridge without a screen. I was trying to buy an LG with the window that you can knock on to see inside (not screen) but it was out of stock… and ended up with one of these fridges. The software is stupid though, I use it to play music sometimes when I’m cooking. It has some menu options for controlling the fridge too. I would love to load up custom ROM though… What annoys me the most is lack of RTC battery, because the time resets whenever there’s a power outage.

This is really cool! I’d be interested to find out what lower cost / recycled materials can achieve with this design. Also designs for the other connecting pieces like chains etc

I thought it was funny when it came out, but it hasn’t aged well at all. Very cringey and stereotypical, with a slight tinge of homophobia.

Discord has been taking down free bot systems that people have created to cross check user history and keep them away from minors by banning them from all servers that subscribe to the service. It was entirely opt in and discord obviously doesn’t care that people are groomed they are in fact facilitating in and blocking any organized efforts to stop predators.

Poopy diarrhea chargers

Clearly post does not understand kernel booting. Initrd will never go away, you need a way to tell the kernel to start systemd, which is usually part of initramfs. Both can be compiled as part of the kernel image which can be directly booted from EFI. So basically EFI->Kernel->Decompress InitramFS->Run Initrd Boot Script (usually ends by kicking off SystemD). Initramfs is compressed to reduce boot partition usage, load faster into ram (more noticeable on HDD). You want the bare minimum of kernel modules available in initramfs to load storage drivers, filesystem, LVM, LUKS. Everything else should be modules on the root filesystem, unless it needed for boot. You can compile these static into the kernel too. Generally modules are preferable as they can be unloaded/reloaded if there is an issue. Also updating initramfs modules is annoying. I wrote my own initrd scripts and custom initramfs. You can build it all with bash scripts and configure the kernel to include the payload.

The AI translations still suck big time. Yes I run whisper on my local stuff, but I shouldn’t be able to tell that much from Crunchyroll. Like common at least review the subtitles… What the heck am I even paying for

It’s perfectly fine to host jellyfin online. Use a proxy server to enable TLS and do not use default ports 80/443. Use letsencrypt for free certificates. No need for VPN to access here either. Do not expose any other ports such as SSH on default ports. Lock down your jellyfin server and any other related services behind a VPN service and block access to Internet through other interfaces (except for port forwards on your ISP for jelly). Go high on port ranges since they typically aren’t scanned or blocked. Go dual stack for best results and don’t use your router address for IPv6 more than likely you have your own /64 choose a different address for port forwards. Do not assign this address to your internal servers. Use a reserved unrouted IPv6 range internally and do NAT6. Do not allow any raw IPv6 internet access

This happens on slower USB devices the data is buffered and the write won’t be complete right away. You can use the “sync” command and wait until it completes to make sure it’s done before you unmount the device. These days KDE shouldn’t let you unmount before it’s done though.

Microsoft has policy that prevents it from retaliatory actions against human rights violations. Court should rule Microsoft violated its own policies…

I stopped using gnome after they removed the ability to edit the menu without going through a bunch of hoops. Their idea of removing complexity involved removing choice and customization. KDE has had superior multi monitor support for a long time.

It’s still hard to find PCIe 4 stuff lol

Technically all certificates are pinned, especially with public CAs, most OS package the latest CA certs which will all go out of style within 10 years or so. You can see this by loading up any old distro or defunct version of windows.

I’d still be using Ubuntu sometimes if it weren’t for the snaps thing. They only make sense for proprietary software… but snaps still suck. I don’t like packaged software. They contain all kinds of things that can’t be updated. The app store was getting better before all that changed. Now Debian seems better, but I still prefer source based distros like Gentoo because the ingredients come with recipes.
