Trying to find the upside here Maybe with limits, people will be more considered in what they choose to post or comment, and the disinformation bots will be curtailed?
I don’t use monnet or instagram etc. but i wouldn’t hate either of those possibilities.
Hopefully this bullshit tactic moves us closer to a post american internet and corporate action to reduce reliance on US tech
US tech has been thinly disguised spware for a long time, now I think we can upgrade that to ransomware.
Do you mean compelling them to operate on a completely open source basis?
If you mean as in government owned/controlled, considering the primary thieves are US corporations, that would be the equivalent of the american government laundering stolen goods and compounding the theft from the rest of the world.
Your arguments would carry more weight and might even be worth debating if you could make them objectively without attempts at petty insults, and pretentions of victimhood. As it stands, you’re just kinda predictable and boring. Moving on…
Never said they were doung the right thing, just pointing out that if the behaviour warrants complaint, then complaint shoud be levied agaisnt everyone behaving that way.
But hey, you keep on with your black and white opinions.
Assuming you are in a western nation, There is a degree of legitimacy to be taken with the fact that China are far less capable of weaponising that data against you personally, than the US
Chinese ev bus behaves like every John Deere tractor, Tesla, amazon ring doorbell, windows pc, mac, smart tv, iphone and android device , and probably every other car made since 2020.
“But China bad” is getting pretty old and frail in comparison to the domestic and international predations and privacy invasions of US tech businesses and government
Interesting idea. If i subscribe to a streaming service for one month, i can save 31 days * 24 hours of content for later viewing. That would keep ke going quite a while since i only have the time to watch tv for a couple of hours per night…
So the russian military machine has the same definitions of ‘moral’ as the israeli one…
and both have completely forgotten every blood soaked lesson that should have been learned in ww2.
Be careful with --delete if you automate the rsynch, include a safety check that the source drive is mounted correctly and is not empty. Wouldnt want a drive failure to be read as empty and delete everyrhing on the target…
I started in August. Running docker containers on ubuntu server lts minimal, on a ryzen 3 3200g with 16gb ram.
Running:
The domain has no website and no open ports, so Caddy handles routing and automated tls certification via api. External access only via tailscale, per user and per device approval process. Split horizon dns so domain names resolve direct routes to server on lan, and via tailnet from outside.
500GB nvme OS drive rsynched nightly to a second matched nvme in the server. HDD data drives backed up using rsynch to matching sized drives in a DAS unit. Script dumps romm and seafile databases to hdd before rsynch Git pulls to data drive, captured in backup and Syncthing to separate device.
Parallel Pihole and Unbound on a RPi5. RPi5 is primary dns for the lan to spread load, but the config master is the server, RPi is kept in sync with a one way feed from the main server using Syncthing.
Looking into adding openclaw and ollama to play with, maybe use to monitor the server a bit more proactively. Need to plan out permissions and security so nothing dumb happens.
For me, its just a board that knows which imagea i am running and tells me if there is a newer one so that i know how out of date i am 😂
No auto updates thanks. 😅 I’ve just reset all my compose files to pin versions today after an unintended mariadb update cost me hours to repair. I’ll look into dockhand though. Was unimpressed at portainer’s announcement that new version wont have a community edition. Portainer is really just an ‘at a glance’ view for me since i try to do all the compose and troubleshooting stuff in terminal. Wud will probably become a thing i just review every few weeks to make sure i dont get too adrift from latest.
I ought to look into a unified dashboard as i dont have easy visibility or things like disk usage, sheduled backup success etc that id like to see alongside the container status and beszel activity graphs.
Im still quite new to it all though.
Portainer, beszel, and Whats up docker
I dony think its a terrible future that we all get our own Jarvis to help us be a little more Tony Stark. But if those jarvis replicas are all either open to or controlled by anyone but the user its simply not a viable future. If they ae open to or controlled by dystopian oligarchs like zuckerberg, then … “fuck no” is the only rtional response.
For some time now I think its been the case that frontier models perform worse (or at least more inconsistently) at procedural activity.
Sadly i didn’t miss the part that presented me with a paywall when i clicked the link before i posted the reply.
paywall 🤮
Everything you need should be here: https://www.linuxmint.com/ You might also take a look here: https://linuxvox.com/blog/linux-mint-setup/
Since you mention cinnamon, worth noting that Linux can (but you dont have to) separately choose the underlying operating system and the desktop environment.
Cinnamon is the desktop environment that is default with Linux Mint so thats what you’d be exoected to boot into by default.
Also bundled is a software manager - think of it like an appstore without bullshirt. 😉
You can also get software from the web, just sarch up the developer as you would have for windows. Linux Mint is based on Ubuntu, so if you’re presented with different versions of linux software, get for the ubuntu/debian option if mint isnt listed explicitly.
You might also see a choice between AMD x64 vs ARM. If you’re running a typical pc and not a tablet, its AMD x64. It refers to the cpu architecture so you sill want that even if you have an intel cpu (that one confused me till someone kindly explained that).
Feel fee to message me if confused by something. Not an expert but will try to help.
Hope you like it and can free yourself from microslop (or a least loosen the shackles a bit)
Because if there isn’t a report, there wasnt a crime, right?
