Absolutely, the idea of "coercion codes"/"distress codes" or the like goes back a very long time, long before electronic devices even, it's a pretty natural idea that someone could use different canned expressi

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but the post also links the "add Canonical CLA check #12665" [0], and my understanding is that "retain copyright" here is like a typical forum agreement where you going forward must a

Nice job skipping the explicit qualifier of "plain vanilla"? Being able to build your own version on top isn't the same as an existing tested product.

It's a 6+ year old conversation now if you're curious: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17066986 You can read through that if you want, frankly it kind of surprises me how nothing at all has changed since then

Even to the extent that's true (and a lot of it is not), none of that explains why there are absolute zero email replacements, and indeed "security" people seem to promptly display brain damage whenever the idea is brought up

I'm also bummed by this and I think it's a major sad example of how poor measurables can really pervert a market (granted, in combination with proprietariness and network effects). SSDs have long been lumped together and measured

So I started seriously using UniFi I think in 2016-ish after using some of their PtP/PtMP stuff for longer. I never ran anything massive peaking at under 200 devices total across various sites, but we did put it pretty hard, and I did

I also live in northern New England and feel the same at this point. It may not be ideal, but nothing else would be either. And honestly technology has made the pain points pretty much vanish for me anyway: now every single time keeping dev

Well we can't, and that's having tried! The replies do a great job of illustrating why really: there's no consensus. Some want permanent standard time. Some want permanent DST. Some are fine the way it is. In a big country sp

As I said I do it at the network level, but every OS should handle that anyway at the OS level as well (though I don't know off the top of my head if/how more locked down stuff like iOS exposes it). No need for any scripting yours

The typical reason is using Cloudflare DNS for archive.today resolution. Even with multiple DNS entries, if 1.1.1.1 is at higher priority and tried by the system first (and doesn't time out) it won't help. Either have to switch to

While I do not host OwnCloud, I do selfhost a significant amount of other services and strongly believe it can offer a lot of value in certain areas (or stages of business/work). However, part of what I think makes it viable in the cur

This argument is not at all a new one, and I think dates back to the dawn of modern media, the idea that "if only the public knew the horrors something more would be done". Frankly I'm really skeptical. Humans have known inti

I still desperately wish the industry had been able to push through to an optical data + plain power interconnect standard ages ago instead of it falling apart. It's so pleasant to deal with fiber. The same OS2 or OM3 I installed over

Are you talking about using it AIO? It seems preferable to me in general to have VMs live on external storage like a NAS. Proxmox, KVM, Xen and I assume everything else all support using iSCSI at least. Then your storage layer can focus on
