syncthing also relies on a web server for device discovery, it’s just that you’re probably using someone else’s server instead of hosting your own.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I also think that Vaultwarden itself doesn’t have access to the unencrypted password database. In that sense it’s E2EE similar to KeePass, the only difference being that KeePass is a desktop app and Vaultwarden a web app.

Nothing, this is not about that.

This change gives you the guarantee that .internal domains will never be registered officially, so you can use them without the risk of your stuff breaking should ICANN ever decide to make whatever TLD you’re using an official TLD.

That scenario has happened in the past, for example for users of FR!TZBox routers which use fritz.box. .box became available for purchase and someone bought fritz.box, which broke browser UIs. This could’ve even been used maliciously, but thankfully it wasn’t.

Being in alpha and having breaking changes is fine, the question is how many. My impression is that Immich seems to introduce breaking changes far more frequently than what people might be used to from other projects.

And that does go back to professionalism: The better you plan ahead, the fewer breaking changes you have to impose on your users.

Minio now describes itself as “S3 & Kubernetes Native Object Storage for AI” - lol

Guess it’s time to look for alternatives if you’re not doing ML stuff

I wouldn’t call criticism of their strategic focus “shitting on” Nextcloud. It obviously still does a lot of things right or at least right enough to be useful and relevant to many people, or else we wouldn’t be discussing it. But it has its issues and many of them have been unadressed for a long time, so why shouldn’t people voice their displeasure with that?

Sounds like a “no true Scotsman” argument tbh

Giving some real 1984 vibes

War is Peace

Freedom is Slavery

Ignorance is Strength

There are quite a few mature projects in 0.x that would cause a LOT of pain if they actually applied semver

Depending on how one defines the “initial development” phase, those projects are actually conforming to semver spec:

Major version zero (0.y.z) is for initial development. Anything MAY change at any time. The public API SHOULD NOT be considered stable.

After looking at the site and trying to determine what to download to get Debian with non-free (I’m unfortunately working with an NVIDIA card)

FWIW, Debian 12 now includes non-free firmware in the installation media by default and will install whatever is necessary.

I agree that the Debian website has its weaknesses, but beyond finding the right installer (usually netinst ISO a.k.a small installation image on https://www.debian.org/distrib/) there isn’t much of a learning curve. I started out with Ubuntu too, but finally decided that enough was enough when snap started breaking my stuff on desktop.

I’m not arguing about the fines themselves, those can indeed be scaled by revenue. I also agree that many fines should be higher to prevent companies from merely seeing them as an operating cost.

However, my point is that company revenue can’t be used 1:1 to pay off fines. That doesn’t take into account that revenue also has to cover all other operating expenses and taxes. As an example, the article states that Meta would take roughly 5½ days to pay off its fines, but taking the 23.42% profit margin into account a more realistic answer is 23½ days.

Revenue is the wrong metric for this type of comparison. Last I heard even big tech didn’t have a profit margin of 100%.

Thanks, didn’t know about those deals!

+1 for own domain and some email hosting service. That also makes it pretty easy to switch providers because you can simply point your MX records etc. somewhere else - no need to change the actual email address.

I can also recommend mailbox.org as an alternative to mxroute, they’re even a little cheaper at $3/month (mxroute is $49/year at minimum).

It’s perfectly clear that Israel is committing genocide against the Palestinians and if you support that, I’m sorry but you’re absolutely evil.

This “you’re either for Palestine or a genocide supporter” mindset is half the reason this conflict still exists, the other half is the “you’re either for Israel or a terrorist supporter” mindset. I’m sure it feels great to have a one-dimensional world view, but not everyone is either for or against one side.

All I was asking for is a source for your claim that Israel is spreading misinformation and that said misinformation is allowed to proliferate. The one source you provided is inadequate because it doesn’t have any proof of Israeli lies, it just says that Israeli-provided proof is inconclusive. Let alone your claim that the alleged misinformation is not removed…

We’re done here, clearly there’s no good faith discussion to be had.

You evidently had enough time to post elsewhere, so it’s not unreasonable to think you might’ve read my reply already.

How is the WP article showing misinformation? It basically boils down to “Israel alleged something and provided some evidence, but we think it’s not conclusive”. It does not show that Israel knowingly lied about anything, which is what you’re insinuating.

What do you base that claim on? The article doesn’t mention it.

Edit: Your silence is also an answer. Ironic, talking about misinformation and spreading it yourself…

Oh, I think we’re talking different orders of magnitude here. I’m in the <1TB range, probably around 100GB. At that size, the cost is negligible.

I do an automated nightly backup via restic to Backblaze B2. Every month, I manually run a script to copy the latest backup from B2 to two local HDDs that I keep offline. Every half a year I recover the latest backup on my PC to make sure everything works in case I need it. For peace of mind, my automated backup includes a health check through healthchecks.io, so if anything goes wrong, I get a notification.

It’s pretty low-maintenance and gives a high degree of resilience:

• A ransomware attack won’t affect my local HDDs, so at most I’ll lose a month’s worth of data.
• A house fire or server failure won’t affect B2, so at most I’ll lose a day’s worth of data.

restic has been very solid, includes encryption out of the box, and I like the simplicity of it. Easily automated with cron etc. Backblaze B2 is one of the cheapest cloud storage providers I could find, an alternative might be Wasabi if you have >1TB of data.

drive failure

Perhaps unintended but very much relevant singular. Unless you’re doing RAID 6 or the like, a simultaneous failure of two drives still means data loss. It’s also worth noting that drives of the same model and batch tend to fail after similar amounts of time.

Once again, you’re going off on an unrelated tangent. If you don’t want to listen, I can’t help you. We’re done here.
