the topics seem good. but posting to two coms is kinda spammy. as opposed to asking in one, then collect answers before asking for further additional responses in another.

maybe its time people redirect their money to supporting peertube

better to keep track of a ton of torrents and seed the ones that go completely dead

And cache

"In kernel development, debugging is very hard for several reasons:

• Documentation is often hard to find, and BIOS implementations may be flawed (more often than you would think)
• On boot, the kernel has full access to the memory and is allowed to write where it should not (its own code, for example)
• Troubleshooting memory leaks is not easy. Tools such as valgrind cannot be used
• gdb can be used with QEMU and VMWare, but the kernel may have a different behaviour when running on a different emulator or virtual machine. Also, those emulators may not support gdb (example VirtualBox)
• Some features in the support for gdb in QEMU or VMWare are missing and gdb might even crash sometimes

All those issues are reasons for using a memory-safe language, to avoid them as much as possible.

Overall, the use of Rust in the kernel allowed for the implementation of a lot of safeguards. And I believe that it is, to this day, the best decision I have made for this project."

I think this is really cool.
But…
What it is: low bandwidth literal physical replacement of internet infrastructure. Often seen as a very extreme manuver.

Meanwhile: there are various overlay projects like i2p which, unfortunately, create new internets which [almost totally] reliance on the old internet. But they do cooler shit.

Diaspora allows for whitelisting visibility of posts to certain users(and servers… depending on where users are hosted)

POS does not consume resources.
This goes to show how low-effort the criticism campaigns are.
However… all cryptos have their health tied to bitcoin which is a large energy consumer. So the point is actually still very true (due to some other reason).

immediately followed by the rollout of Google Self-Driving Car Project Business -Waymo

I cant find any information that discusses the security risk. But it would seem that this transfering all content to the owner of the phone number is a standard feature.
So, maybe its not discussed because it doesn’t frequently happen.
It doesnt seem like a trustworthy way to ensure users’ content remains secure.

If someone trys to register with an existing number then it wont work if its already being used.
Im not sure on this^
Better to enable a security pin if you are concerned.
The traditional phone system involvement is annoying.

Are you a robot?

I guess not

”It’s important to maintain control of this phone number."

I strongly feel that this is false.

This is what flatpak brings to the table

Diaspora has private groups. But many downsides.
For example… discovering people, first involves sharing with them.

It would be dfficult to keep all kinds of random things in an affordable database.

I’m more concerned about the meaning of life. Which, conveniently is 42.

webserver software can compress.
https://docs.nginx.com/nginx/admin-guide/web-server/compression/ .

Be careful that unlimited ( more acurately labeled via the “high speed data” limit) is a widely used practice of false advertising.
Check the throttle speed to see what happens after you run out of data.

I hear people frequently say this.

Searx is basically a proxy. If you had an actual proxy… you would achieve the exact same benefits. Its good for making it difficult… or extremely difficult to tie a person’s real identity, directly to their search query.
Another thing that searx does is sends your query to google. This is not good for privacy. But sometimes it gives you additional results.
