If you do don’t trust em then don’t update syncthing - it’ll work for quite a while I assume.

And in addition the keepass safe default encryption of AES-256 and is even secure against theoretically existing quantum computer attacks to our current knowledge. It is designed to be not trusted by the storage owner :)

I wish I could blame auto correct but I’m afraid at least 2/3 of that was (and is) sleep deprivation :(

Hopefully a bit cleaner now and thanks for the pointer.

Thanks! Highly appreciated :) Your “compile” time alone I wasted when I accidently screwed up disk encryption - and couldn’t figure out what’s wrong with my kernel parameters for a long time. So your numbers are not really shocking.

Edit: decrypted message.

Yay AMA! ❤️

How do you feel when you(have to use) a different linux system of that happens? Is it as different that it’s like “using” MacOS or Windows to you?

How lo does it take you to set up a system from scratch?

what’s the biggest downside from your perspective?

Thanks in advance!

In the very first post on this thread I pointed out that I’m not talking about this specific case at all.

To your last point I fully agree!

For the first point: that’s how I understood you - what I failed to convey: adultsshould fall victim more in cases like this because parents can be a protective shield of a kind that grown-ups lag.

Children on their own stand easy less of a chance but are very rarely on their own.

And to be honest I think it doesn’t change result of requirements for action both in general but respectfully for language based bots, both from a legal as well as an educational point of view.

I see your point but there is one major difference between adults and children: adults are by default fully responsible for themselves z children are not.

As for your question: I won’t blame the parents here in the slightest because they will likely put more than enough blame on themselves. Instead I’ll try to keep it general:

Independent of technology, what a parent can do is learn behavior and communication patterns that can be signs of mental illness.

That’s independent of the technology.

This is a big task because the border between normal puberty and behavior that warrants action is slim to non-existent.

Overall I wish for way better education for parents both in terms of age appropriate patterns as well as what kind of help is available to them depending on their country and culture.

Oh the trackers are against that because they fight all the way against people working against the community and I guess that they just see more leeches coming in this way.

Personally I don’t care about the individual background as long as it’s at least a break even in the community.

Good luck!

Just as a heads-up: expect some pushback just for asking.

In general buying accounts is frowned upon on all private trackers I’m aware of, including the rule to ban bought accounts on sight.

Several private trackers give out VIP status for people buying seed boxes through them though I guess there are some where you’d get an account in the first place through this.

It all depends on your goals. Personally I wouldn’t trust account sellers. I don’t see a way for them to get accounts without it being quite easily identifyable for the respective pages.

Personally I went the “hard” route but never tried to push into the cabal tier private trackers.

Just remember to not screw your account within the first hours by not taking care of your ratio and the trackers rules.

Understandable, he was right very often and “only” his tone was…unfiltered. but I ignore the “was right” part when using that phrasing :)

I’d like to imagine that this would be close to the phrasing Linus himself would choose, although I could be off of course!

I really don’t enjoy Linus’ content without context I have to admit.

He was an absolute dipshit back then and he’s one of the few people I’ve read about who not only acknowledged that but also put effort into changing it - and succeeded.

Yeah the newer mails are not as funny to third parties anymore but I’m really happy for him and especially the kernel devs around him.

Oh yeah I see…

As some old philosopher once said: “shit’s fucked, yo”.

Seems to be appropriate here.

Because a security engineer focused on cloud would rightfully say “pod security is not my issue, I’m focused on protecting the rest of our world from each pod itself.”. With AWS as example: If they then analyze the IAM role structures and to deep into where the pod runs (e.g. shared ec2 vs eks) etc. then it would just be a matter of different focus.

Cloud security is focused on the infrastructure - looks like you’re looking for a security engineer focused on the dev side.

If they bring neither to the table then I’m with you - but I don’t see how “the cloud” is at fault here… especially for security the world as full of “following the script” people long before cloud was a thing.

You got a lot of relevant answers so I want to point out something else:

You’re hosting your own services. By yourself. Fuck everyone with a broom who tries to gatekeep that. And I don’t mean wooden side first.

Seriously, your question is on point here from my perspective and as long as it has a connection to running services by your own I personally would love more diversity in hosting solutions.

Personally, I’d love to see people share more about their provider agnostic opentofu deployment or someone who went all in on AWS lambdas for weird stuff.

Old knowledge disclaimer, but if they didn’t change it then:

Because Apple literally tells people that they’re not allowed to charge less somewhere else - at least that was the case several years ago…

It’s cheap and uninteresting clickbait.

Why do you assume that the downvotes are “I don’t understand this” instead of “this is spammy bullshit”?

I assume we’re in a similar boat so let me assure you: no, you won’t - because we wouldn’t even realize it happened.

Only after s few months one of us will recall this thread and be like “oh, yeah. Twitter. Seems really dead finally. Good.”

And to be clear I expect they person to be you because my memory is awful.

And check for each music service their offered music. I’ve checked out tidal actually today with one of those export playlist tools and about 10% of my (honestly: niche) music wasn’t available.

Me when I develop something or test something with another ones tool or want a quick comparison: I don’t want to use something in production for a while just to see if the basics are met.

Those sites give me the opportunity to bomb me with all kinds of scenarios and I check what’s working for me and where not.

It’s not about a few sites that I could quickly check but about patterns.

Does that mean that an “all” view is "onl"y all of the subscriptions/places people from my server have?

That’s quite interesting.

And thanks!
