First, don’t buy it from a store. Second, turn that sucker off before you go home.

So, turn it off before you go home?

Does that matter? If it’s a device that you bought used just for this? There is no name attached to that device at that point. Buy it used on Craigslist, use it for the event, throw it away. It can be any cheap, crappy phone.

Does it matter if that cell service isn’t connected to a name?

I believe there are Bluetooth network protocols that mesh that would work for messaging and not require cell service. It would be smart to organize using something like that and just use any cell phone without cell service turned on. That still gives you the ability to call 911 in case of emergencies as well.

No kidding. I know it doesn’t change their point. You could tell by the way I said it doesn’t change their point. The original commenter might not have known it’s to the point of models consuming their own synthetic data. They may have learned something.

I have some other keys for different things like “service accounts.” But I mainly have one personal key I use for things that need ssh keys.

The training sets aren’t all human created. They have models that feed other models training data. That doesn’t change your point, but you should know it’s worse than you think.

My key is used in so many places I’m reluctant to update it. I probably should, even just to use newer crypto standards.

Yeah, I only put specific things there. Management and monitoring things. The services are still local.

I’ve been using a VPS for a while now. I still maintain it, so it’s very much like self hosting.

Self hosting can be stretched to mean you’re hosting your own services on a cloud provider.

Defense in depth for one. It looks like this project is made for protecting your data on cloud storage. I’ve noticed right now there seems to be a lot of projects around using relatively cheap S3 storage solutions.

Just self host the whole thing with Forgejo. I run a few github actions on runners all on my own stuff.

I haven’t used it, but this project looks interesting: https://github.com/dkorecko/PatchPanda

It doesn’t just update you containers, it checks the release notes too.

You’ll want a Thor for that. I’ve been using it instead of my N3DS.

It’s really not. They handle authentication but then everything is sent to your server.

Yeah, that has been my problem in the past. That’s why I settled on installing Wireguard and just toggle it on/off as needed. With it on it connects back to my home and my DNS.

The opposite is also a problem because I want to use my DNS when on my own network.

Quad9 has a couple different categories. There are others too, but Quad9 isn’t a for profit company and is probably the best option.
