Australia, the testing ground for bad privacy invading policy for the five (/thirteen/whatever we’re up to now) eyes. Also run by technical morons (“The laws of mathematics are very commendable, but the only law that applies in Australia is the law of Australia”). ASSAct etc.

I do this, along with pamusb, so I don’t need a password for sudo etc. (which allows a longer more secure password than I might otherwise use). Depending on the threat model, I think it’s fine to just leave it in. One day I’ll get it to shutdown --now on ripping out the key drive without dismounting first, sort of a break glass in emergency thing. Same thing can be achieved with pulling the key and holding the power button though (even if it’s a bit rude to the filesystem)

But now it’s a meme. I’m good with that.

If you’re going to be crazy, do it unique. Roddenberry was an ass (not asshole), but an interesting one, and mildly immortal.

You’re only given a little spark of madness. You mustn’t lose it! Einstein?

Radicale has been so good I’d forgotton it existed, carddav and caldav sorted. Unix principle at its best, do one thing well (or microservices for the newbies). Why are you dogwhistling for a closed source marginal replacement for syncthing ?

wut ?, get two hat (ish), and chicken man means daniel no neck? I need a vowel…

Thankyou for the explain, makes little sense to me (never watched the Office (US)) and I was overthinking two-hat. Be well.

Noice!

Why wouldn’t NVIDIA want its drivers made for free, gotta wonder… (might have to do with artificial segmentation, which is getting more redundant as game GPUs go through the roof)

I heartily approve, without much help to offer. Points of thought…

-Calibre web server good, mirror Annas Archive best, practically somehow getting everyone’s downloaded books into a community Calibre would rock.

  • You’re going to need a bigger NAS (Jaws pun, but seriously, this will be at least / more important than your server, redundancy is king)
  • Probably something lighter / easier too maintain than Nextcloud for simple filesharing, Seafile perhaps?
  • Honestly, this is the sort of initiative that could drive local Mesh adoption.
  • What security are you using, most govs/corps don’t like private internets, how vulnerable are you to CSAM etc.

I’m aware of a fair amount of local sneaker net approaches (HDD swapping etc), which mostly avoids the security issues. I too would love to hear about successful use cases.

If I just happen to get the bad module that craps out after 6 months, the positive reviews are not that helpful.

That’s what RAID(5) is for, if a drive craps out you just shrug and get a new one (or warranty), no data loss. Easy enough to cobble together with a PCIe card and 4ish smaller drives, faster too…

Yep, as can happen easily if you buy in a batch. Just like ransom (related, no?), non-sequential serial numbers please.

What’s the answer OP?

Fine, can’t see said rules and thread’s dead Fred…

Might choose otherwise.

God tier VPN solution (if your provider is covered), have two running, one outs in Singapore for *arrs and a localish one for my SearxNG. So much versatility for something so solid…

You’re right, and it’s Stockholm Syndrome from a century of ad psychology refinement.

If manipulating reddit isn’t already a betting sport, it’s not far away. Guessing it is in Russia (or at least a drinking game), just like the rest of the big ‘social’ netwerks. Enjoy your next election. Wherever you are :)

No, given the explanation of RAF is a smile, it’s sort of obvious…

Could someone remember that capsaicin is more toxic to parasites ? Literally kills worms…

Two Boys Blowing Up a Bladder - Joseph Wright of Derby (1769-70) (upload.wikimedia.org)

"Though wonder is doubtless the energy that pulses through the brush of every committed painter, in truth, only a rare few have managed successfully to capture its essence as a palpable property in their work. The recent rediscovery in 2019 of a work by the British Enlightenment artist Joseph Wright of Derby that was hitherto...

Agreed, MX master plus logiops is gold on linux, 6+ years on my 2 (bit ugly now but still works great) and now a 3, no complaints.

Look at syncthing, set a directory with your music on your desktop/laptop , sync to phone, profit…
