We must mandate speed monitoring devices for every car sold. Each time the vehicle speed exceeds the speed limit we will deduct 100 social credit points from the owner's balance. Hundreds of thousands of people die each year due to fil

Most people don't care even at step 2. It's only technical people with concerns about privacy and corporate overreach behind this backlash. Most of that group will continue using iPhones no matter what out of convenience and unwil

I switched to a Pixel 5 running GrapheneOS. It does a good job of reducing the chat to Google, but it would be an outright lie to say that it's completely detached from Google. I'm comfortable with the measures GrapheneOS has take

Apple's brand is tarnished in my eyes. I already got rid of my iPhone and won't be returning. The fact that they even announced this is proof that they only ever cared about providing a facade of privacy.

I want to understand where you're coming from. But I do think there's a false equivalence here. DJing is a creative process with no defined goal. There's only so many ways an Ansible playbook can be realistically written to i

If you knit a scarf, you have a scarf at the end of it. You can keep it or gift it to someone. If you write a playbook to install some software on your home network, you have some YAML that took longer to write than it would have taken to d

I have nothing against hobbies but it's even better if your hobby has something to show for it. I think the time saved by just manually plonking the software on a cloud VPS would allow the author to do something more challenging and in

It's bizarre to me - the idea of running so many things on a home network that you need to start writing Ansible playbooks, building Docker images, spinning up Kubernetes clusters, putting a rack together. I think if you really applied

I'm a Podman skeptic. Whenever I've tried these "OCI compatible" alternatives in the past it's been a painful experience because something doesn't work as expected. Podman's homepage proclaims it's as

Yes, we need more features in browsers. There just aren't enough. It's just too restrictive. We don't need to carefully consider the tradeoffs.

I appreciate the encouragement. I find it really hard though. LinkedIn as a platform is just gross and its had so many security incidents over the years, I don't want to give them anything more than I have to.

As somebody else in this thread stated, Discord is a platform mostly for young people. I doubt most users are aware that bots are a privacy risk. How are they going to know that they need to create a separate bot-free channel for their priv

There's so many cases where a hacky Exec or five becomes necessary. For example, I am not aware of any Puppet module that does disk partitioning + formatting. Our solution was to write a class with a few Execs to do that. But there

But you realise the danger of this, no? If you have a bot in your private server listening for all messages, those messages are being sent off to somebody else. You have no way of verifying what they do with those messages. They could be lo

Yeah, I get a tinge of jealousy when I hear coworkers talk about getting daily messages on LinkedIn from recruiters. My LinkedIn is extremely barebones and I'm inactive on the site.

Sadly, no. Puppet masquerades as being declarative just like Ansible does. It's very easy to get into a situation where your Puppet class is just a fancy shell script which works the first time and then fails because a file doesn'

At work we use Puppet and I have to say that although the DSL is much more expressive and nicer to use than YAML, Puppet's tooling sucks in comparison. There isn't really any way to test your Puppet code that I know of, you just h

They wouldn't need to store so many if they actually let people delete their messages on account deletion. Instead, they ban many people who attempt to do so via automated scripts.

Please see my other reply. Vaccinated people have a significantly reduced risk of death, so there is virtually no risk from being exposed to those without a vaccination. >The same people that don't understand vaccines are also likel

1. Those who are vaccinated have a significant reduction in risk of death (not to mention that the risk is very minute for young people anyway), so that's a moot point 2. Some vaccinated people have been found to carry the same levels
