Are there advantages to this over self hosting Vaultwarden?

I got a mini pc (e.g. a NUC). I did this after the price for rasps went sky high. Check out used NUCs, you can get a lot of power for the price.

Glad I moved completely away from Hue and now use mostly ZWave devices. From the article:

When asked what drove this change, the answer is the usual: security. Well Signify, you know what keeps user data even more secure? Not uploading it all to your cloud. Just allow a smart home to talk to Hue using the local API or Matter.

Security. What a load of nonsense.

I backup Proxmox VMs and templates onto my NAS, and from there into the cloud. If you don’t want the cloud maybe auto backup to an external drive and keep it somewhere safe (out of range of a possible disaster to your home)

I went with a Synology and have been very happy with it. Easy to use, very nice GUI, yet quite powerful with the features provided.

From there I moved on to NUC. I used to host several things through Docker on the Synology but I’m now moving many of those things to the NUC.

I have a 5g home internet backup connection. My primary internet is fiber, so my thinking if there is a cut somewhere it could also affect cable, so I use over the air as my backup.

Mehta even appeared briefly confused by some of the references to today’s tech, unable to keep straight if Mozilla was a browser or a search engine. He also appeared unclear about how SEM works and struggled to understand the options for Microsoft to promote Bing ads outside of Google’s SEM tools.

This is not the first thing I have heard troubling about judge Mehta regarding this case. He also ruled that it would not be considered that Google employees and executives purposely destroyed evidence related to the case. It’s not a good sign for the antitrust argument with a judge like this.

Yeah, bad list. Use Mastodon.

Sanity prevails.

I understand wanting to keep porn away from kids, but this wasn’t the way to do it. A few U.S. states have implemented it.

Ugh, what a mess. Thought about this for a while today and three thoughts started circulating in my head:

1. Hire an actual lawyer and get firm legal advice on this issue. I think this would fall to the admins, not the devs. Maybe an admin who wanted could volunteer to contact a lawyer? We could do a gofundme for one-time consultation legal fees.

2. Stop using pictrs completely and instead use links to a third party such as Imgur or whatever. They’re in this business and I’m sure already have dealt with it and have a solution. Yes it sucks that Imgur (or whatever third party) could delete our legitimate images at any time, but IMHO it’s worth it to avoid this headache. At any rate it offloads the liability from an admin. Of course, IANAL and this is a question we would want to ask a lawyer about.

3. Needing a GPU increases the expenses for an admin significantly. It will start to not be worth it for quite a few to keep their instance running.

Thanks for bringing up this point. This is obviously a nuanced issue that is going to need a well-thought-out solution.

LMAO. So, so true and I have no problem with it. Self-hosted seems to be one of the most active communities on Lemmy. I learn a lot and y’all all seem cool.

Gotta ban something (/s)

Great news. Wish it was also happening on iOS

Can Tesla separate itself from its CEO and remain viable when other automakers ramp up their EV production?

I don’t think so. Or maybe I should say, “I hope not.” I hope other EV makers overtake Tesla.

It’s surprising to me that I feel this way. I used to be a huge Tesla fanboy. I drive a Tesla.

But I can’t separate Musk’s actions from his brands. His own name was really the brand, and he has destroyed his personal name brand with his nonsense.

I’m hoping that a non-Tesla EV at a reasonable price comes along. With the auto steering ability of the Tesla. That would be the hardest to give up.

I don’t like the “attention token” nonsense—I turn that off—but I love Brave and its search engine. It is cool to have a search engine return results that are actually different than other SE’s and have those results be very good.

In fact, I find its results to often be better than the big search engines because results aren’t overtuned for SEO

Anything by Halsey. If I have to pick one I’ll say “Closer”

That is really interesting. I had not heard of the ethical listences before.

I imagine with licenses like those it would increase the beaurocracy and legal review for corporations. And that’s probably not such a bad thing.

Good article. I would imagine one large stressor for admins is “how am I supposed to pay for this?” With instances needing to upgrade because of the huge influx of users.

The article suggests a non-profit for mental health support for admins and moderators. While I like the idea, I think we can go further—a non profit to help pay for running instances and paying admin and developer salaries. The names mentioned in the article would make sense for something like this (for instance, Mozilla. Also, how about the EFF?)

Nice workaround!

This is very interesting. What date will show up in Lemmy for the post? The current date/time or the original?
