I am not your lawyer and this is not legal advice for you or anyone who reads this.

Nextcloud encrypts data e2e, so your point there is misguided and not really relevant. You can’t be compelled to provide a password/decryption key as long as it doesn’t exist as physical evidence. This is why lawyers advise clients to use a PIN instead of face ID or fingerprints; biometrics, like all physical evidence, can be subpoenad.

Self hosting services like matrix or email is a bad idea if you don’t really understand what you’re doing, like many other things. If you keep you stuff updated and are intelligent in how you structure your network there’s not really anymore risk here than paying someone else to host it. If you keep you stack simple and follow best practices, code and configurations written by industry experts do most of the heavy lifting.

I’ve cut down on that by only giving it tasks that are reviewed automatically.

“Spit this into a json”

It gives me the code, I continue with my program knowing exactly what is where in the json and if I get a parsing error or something I know exactly where to look. TBH, though, for things like that I must have an error rate lower than 5%

Ask it to configure a reverse proxy for a cors sensitive application, though, and I think I’d rather die

Yeah. AI 100% makes me more productive and by a good bit. I used it to write a section of code today to export all the information my program gathers about a system to a json file. Woulda taken me 20 minutes but chatgpt did it in seconds.

It also, in the same snippet, introduced a breaking change I didn’t ask for in the original code. I only copied the json part; I just happened to notice the change in the code it wrong. It added a fork bomb lol

Do you write code?

So usually you’d shoot the dog as it’s coming to attack you. A benefit of a gun is that it’s a ranged weapon.

How would pepper spray be more useful than a gun? As someone that’s been charged by an animal on a hike, the noise (which doesn’t require effective aim like pepper spray) is enough by itself.

Wild dogs don’t simply show up out of nowhere and start attacking

They do, actually, that’s how pack animals hunt from the perspective of prey.

Fair enough, honestly.

So you’re saying in the middle of being mauled by wild dogs that not once would it occur to you there’s a tool which could prevent it, nor would you want it?

One of those things that’s true until it isn’t, IMO.

Part of science is reproducible events, no?

Kernel modules can be installed, loaded, and run without a reboot in Linux. TPM support would just ensure that the firmware/kernel and modules loaded at boot are expected.

Edit: basically, TPM support wouldn’t really do what a game dev would want for a kernel that can be modified at runtime, unless I’m missing something

I think a more likely alternative with be a BSD or other Unix derivative

Gemini asking: how/why?

Architecture?

“Yeah not sure why it’s not showing up, it looks like it’s connect to my wifi”

PBR with openwrt, then don’t give the ring’s fw zone access to jack except for their ping service, or whatever it needs to show online without video. Or just block it entirely.

TBF, if you’re not running FOSS at the edge of your network you have don’t have the full view what’s going on anyway.

A cult turning on its leader is not zero sum but instead manifested by the base becoming more devout and, as a cause, shrinking.

MAGA has gotten crazier not because they grip their beliefs more firmly, but because those with “looser” grips have fallen.

Having said that, his voter base has gotten larger and larger with each election. My rebuttal to this is that the vast majority of swing voters vote with the following logic: “Do I like how things are”

If yes, vote same party, otherwise vote opposition.

The early 2020s were better under Biden than they would have been under Trump, but they still generally sucked for first time home buyers, people beginning their career, etc.

The hype is earnest

I wish laws represented the interests of the 99%

What?

This might be a hot take, but I think it started with tying internet identities to real identities.
