Thank god we didn’t elect Dems. Can you imagine?

Many blessings on you and your family

they’re for profit

From my subscription cost, yes. This aligns my privacy goals with their need for income which is not the case for “free” advertising-supported products.

I encourage subscribers to go make themselves heard on this post if you support being able to disable particular indexes such as Yandex.

Why would they donate server space to you on top of giving you free (beer) software?

The way some of you think is very odd to me.

Back up your own shit or pay for sync.

I use restic to back up files to Wasabi.

It’s all scripted but the steps are:

1. Back up
2. Prune based on rules
3. Perform a repository consistency check and do further checks (takes longer) on 1% of the repo
4. Choose 1 random file from the current backup set and get the hash of the current file
5. Restore that file to a temporary location and hash it.
6. Compare hashes
7. Send push alert to me with success/failure and a summary

So you’re saying it’s ok to trust those cloud providers

What kind of trust are you referring to? I trust that they take great pains to protect their cloud customer’s data. CGP is not Google Search is not Google advertising.

Do I trust them to do the right thing environmentally? No. Geopolitically? No. But let’s not get these all confused. They do support surveillance tech but surreptitiously mining their cloud customer’s data has the potential to sink their entire business overnight.

yandex is about 2% of our total cost, to put things into perspective

TOTP or GTFO

Thanks for bringing receipts. In stark contrast to my experience on Reddit, Lemmings usually seem allergic to showing their work for some reason.

I assume businesses only jumped at the chance to enable SMS 2FA to get their greedy little fingers on our phone numbers.

It hasn’t been difficult to get a GPU as a gamer for a few years now. What are you taking about?

I just sent a test message from my GV to my normal carrier number. It’s regular old SMS. No, not encrypted.

It sends SMS. not RCS. Does SMS even support any type of encryption? I’m under the impression it doesn’t.

Edit: I just sent a message from my GV to my regular carrier number and it’s just SMS. Certainly not encrypted.

In what way is it encrypted because I believe the answer is that it is not.

Are you really that naive?

Oof. To do anything at scale on AWS you’re still gonna need to do a lot of CLI, yaml, and json.

I think it was funny but that’s completely irrelevant.

Who the fuck forks over any money, much less $50k for… what? What does this coin do that any of the thousands of others don’t? Because someone said a funny thing? …. What??

I have zero sympathy for these dipshits. We’re going to have a lot more of this content in the US over the next 4 years.

That’s kind of like if iMessage dropped SMS support. Yeah, I know if it’s a green bubble it’s not encrypted. But I wouldn’t want them to just not allow it.

You think this is the last step?
