Raiffeisen in Russia let one do everything in a browser on Linux since 2008 for personal accounts. Possibly earlier, I did not have an account with them back then. For business accounts, it's since February 2016.

The manual misses the most important step: getting rid of people who have even the slightest idea of how the product as a whole should work and/or a coherent vision of a better future. The word "vision" is not even present in

This won't work, as local AI (the one I can run on my budget-friendly laptop without any Internet access) exists today and even beats GPT3.5 in some benchmarks.

Swap is still actively harmful if placed on an unsuitable device. A few days ago, I got a complaint about slow ops in a Ceph cluster, and one of the Ceph OSDs spent quite a visible amount of time in response to a simple "ceph tell osd.

Does it rely on the fact that music has a concept of notes with well-defined frequencies and that there is no such thing as 216 Hz (must be 207.6 or 220 Hz) when the music is played on a properly tuned instrument? Or does it use other heuri

The problem is that, while your setup has excellent de-facto security, what matters is security posture. The parties that you authenticate to do not know and cannot know that your actual security is better than your posture visible to them.
