I do. But I put both into the "cloud offering off-prem for very much money" shoebox. I setup a CDN once using VPS from different hosting providers for under 100 USD a month, which I would vastly prefer over trusting anything cloud

That's fair, yeah, and I agree it's not always feasible - but if you have any influence over technical direction at your org, I encourage what I wrote above. Otherwise yeah, let the pea counters in the C-Levels dig their own grave

I don't, since my stuff is reachable only within the company network/VPN. If I needed to though, I would consult the BSI list of official DDOS mitigation services [0] and evaluate each one before deciding. I would not auto-pick Cl

That's lazy engineering and I don't think we as technical, rational people should make that our way of working. I know the saying, but I disagree with it. My fuckups, my problem, but at least I can avoid fuckups actively if I am i

Well, between AWS US EAST 1 killing half the internet, and this incident, not even a month passed. Meanwhile, my physical servers don't care and happily serve many people at a cheaper cost than any cloud offer.

Can we at some point acknowledge that constant cloud disruptions are too costly, and can we then finally move all of our hosting back on-prem?

Your technical work environment sounds horrible to me. Windows + Citrix is enough to send me screaming. Kudos that you pull through like that.

Lenovo Z13 Gen 2 with 64GB RAM and AMD 7840u is what I daily drive. It's 13.3 Inch, premium build with glas and aluminum. It's my favorite laptop by a wide margin, and runs Linux perfectly. Unfortunately Lenovo stopped producing t

I am surprised at the amount of people on HN who don't use OpenWRT. I thought this was hacker news!

Sure. You buy a chinese case with 6-8 bays off Aliexpress, throw some board with ECC RAM support into it and a few disks. You install TrueNAS Scale on it, setup a OpenZFS pool. Front panel lights are controllable via Kernel [0], it even off

Nice that the community is addressing this. I was never able to trust Ventoy in the past, and as such still have a wide array of USB sticks to install Linux flavors with.

This is why you don't have Google services on your phone, kids. Brought to you by a GrapheneOS fanboy.

Sorry for the snarky comment, but then those devs are simply bad. Windows is legacy, the future is in open source.

I have migrated domains from Cloudflare to deSEC.io the past days, and it's been going very well. It's a German nonprofit which is part of DNS4EU as a consortium member.

I am aware that there's video usecases in cars, but why consider CAN for that at all? That's like streaming music via UART - yes, can be done, but why .

What a bad article. Why would you want to stream video over CAN? Also, alright, so Tesla has invented Flexray, MOST and AVB. Congratulations?

Russia won't ever use a nuke, because then India and China are not going to support them again ever. I am not scared a single bit of any nuclear saber rattling. The biggest threat is an uncontested russia.

It's a donation towards the greater good of Europe, so up to a certain amount I am absolutely for it. I have no say in taxation in the first place (well, indirectly through voting, but you know what I mean). 60% is excessive though, an

I am willing to give 1% indefinitely (that's how much I currently donate monthly) until Ukraine is a free nation.

The favorite russian playbook, framing people who support Ukraine's right to self defense in face of a genocidal invasion as warmongers. EU security == Ukraine security.

Unfortunately, many of my German countrymen are either stupid or complacent for not wanting more weapon deliveries, so a striving democracy can defend itself.
