Good. I'm glad no exception was made for this reason.

> Lesson: Test backups continuously so you get immediate feedback when they break. This is a very old lesson that should have been learned by now :) But yeah the rest of the points are interesting. FWIW I rarely use ZFS native encryption

That's true. I remember Karsten Nohl's presentation about this at 33c3 and not much seems to have improved. https://securityaffairs.com/54969/hacking/flight-bookings.ht...

Yeah age verification is another such idiocy. The EU is starting this BS as well. Great way for conservative politicians to make a name for themselves with their backers, but other than that it's not effective at all, considering the t

Absolutely, credit cards are insanely insecure, everything that is needed is written on it. I don't know why we are stuck with this archaic American system. They patched it with a form of 2FA (Mastercard 3D Secure / Visa whatever)

For a flight ticket I just ID myself at the airport so that's not an issue. For concert tickets I don't need to do this now. For internet service I absolutely don't need that, all they need to know is that I pay. And mortgage

Yeah like the Chuwi Gemibook at the moment. I really like them, I have a really old Chuwi atom-based laptop of more than 10 years old that's still working fine, even the battery still lasts a few hours. It was even cheaper and I mainly

There's even a great docker with caddy and the cloudflare DNS-01 module built in which was just what I needed. That saved me having to deal with xcaddy (it was ok, but compiling was slow)
611.
by wkat4242 1y ago
Yeah same here. Caddy is so well designed. I hated traefik from the start and even though it works now I still hate it. The moment I used caddy everything was clear and just worked. Basically what nginx used to be 15 years earlier. But it d

by wkat4242 1y ago
Yeah I deal with it because it's part of the ansible matrix playbook. But I hate it, I always have issues with it. Complex configs, things not quite working right. Nginx which they used before works much better. And these days I use ca

It's not just in the US. In all the EU countries I lived it was also excluded from standard health insurance and government programs except in cases of acute damage.

And also, for this price you can get a really nice N100/N150 laptop with a full HD IPS screen. That'll be faster too. I think the raspberry pi is still a nice niche for when you need the combination of GPIO and fast processing (li

It's not the ads on their site/app but the data they can sell to ad brokers like Google. Remember an adblocker also blocks trackers. And even without adblockers a mobile app can gather much more data on you than a website can.
616.
by wkat4242 1y ago
It doesn't need to be by email. They can simply show it in the mobile website. But they refuse to do so in order to get all that data which they can sell. In a mobile app it's way harder to run ad blockers and much easier to sneak

Spain provides smart cards to their citizens. Mobile is not needed.

by wkat4242 1y ago
A BIG reason these companies like Ryanair want you to use their app its that it's much easier to collect data about you than through a website :(

It's not exactly new and it solves many problems of the older sixel protocol that stems from the age of DEC terminals way before full colour stuff.

Several thousand hours is not a lot. A year is already 8760 hours.

What's bad about side sleeping? Just wondering.

I'm so sorry this is happening to you and the rest of the community. And I don't get why they pick on the trans community so much. Apart from not aligning with their personal religious views, what else has a trans person ever done

Yeah at least there you can be sure every byte of your communication is monitored :) I wouldn't move to either. Not sure where else though. Switzerland is even becoming anti privacy too.

by wkat4242 1y ago
You know this stuff is being pushed on us by the US right? Palantir, Thorn etc. Besides your privacy was already moot was proven by Snowden. They're just less transparent about it.

by wkat4242 1y ago
True sorry, good point.

by wkat4242 1y ago
Eh this is the internet. There's always a way. They couldn't ban piracy either.

by wkat4242 1y ago
True, both networks I have in Europe don't allow it. It's one of the reasons I don't like eSIM, there are a lot more restrictions than with real SIMs. With those I can simply pull one of my cards out of my phone and put it in

Yeah this. I tried that like I always do.

Ps I wasn't trying to troll, it's a serious question, I really think it's in the best interests of rural people to push for CO2 reduction. Especially in America which is the biggest polluter globally. Though the rolling coal
