How strange. If I take a service and set SystemCallFilter=@basic-io SystemCallLog=~@basic-io and then restart it, I get a bunch of audit SECCOMP log messages (and the service fails to start): audit[1185972]: SECCOMP auid=429496

I think this requires support from the service, no? Not everything that wants to open up a port seems to support socket activation. I tried with 6tunnel and couldn't get it to work.

When my service is down and my competitor's isn't, the customers don't care that "it's ok, it's because I chose the market leader and they're having an outage". My customers don't have a contract

Indeed. Much of the time, "scope creep" is actually just discovering what the requirements actually are. It's not that the requirements change, the requirement likely existed all along - it's just that no-body realised i

Dismissing a platform that's solving real problems for real people right now because it might not exist in 5 years is a pretty weird thing to do. "Sustainability" is arbitrary. Everything burns eventually.

Unfortunately, Rabbit's implementation of MQTT has some pretty serious deficiencies which you may find ends up being a deal-braker (e.g. https://github.com/rabbitmq/rabbitmq-server/issues/2556 ).

It's a thoughtful rebuttal, but I'm not sure it hits the point. As usual, there's nuance here. The top selling points of Signal are security and privacy. If you want these things, then there's a lot of things that mainta

Buildjet seems to be KVM-based, so does the job still runs in a VM? Does it support nested KVM, e.g. for running Android espresso / emulator tests?

It's not official, but there are K8s / github actions runner deployments: https://github.com/actions-runner-controller/actions-runner-... I've been playing about with this and it seems to work quite well

Play services / store isn't needed to run Signal (try it on AOSP, works just fine) and none of the iOS devices that run Signal have the play store installed.

If one peer is only allowed to talk to another peer via a centralised "hole-punching" server, it isn't p2p. There's nothing wrong with that topology, but the very original point was about how sometimes you want p2p and

You originally asked about running your signal server. Now you're talking about the network that's hosted through Signal Inc's servers. So what's your point? Do you think everyone should have a right to connect to the

That's a bit like saying there's less incentive to work on (for example) Elasticsearch, because you can't deploy your fork on Elastic Co's official managed service. It's nonsense.

Signal placing restrictions on who can use their service has nothing to do with whether or not people can contribute to the codebase.
742.
by growse 5y ago
You can run your signal server and use it to communicate with others on your signal network. The openness or otherwise of the code has literally nothing to do with the terms of use of any service being run.

"all your lives"? Or just the lives of a few, at the cost of the many? Not all parents agree that this is the right thing to do.

The problem with this is that when your VM unwittingly become part of a botnet, you're now a cost to everyone else . Either keep your OS up to date, or use a different one. Edit or keep it off the internet.
