Oh right, I’ve read about that on coconut crabs I think. There you go, they are already half there.

Mhh, insects in general IIRC are also constrained by the fact they have exoskeletons: i.e. their internal organs are just in a bag. So they can’t grow too much or they just squish I think.

Imagine them being able to become vertebrates. You can have insects the size of cats I think before the osmosis breathing tubes they currently have are not a thing. Lungs would be the next thing I guess.

Disclaimer: I’m not a biologist and just make stuff up from what I remember from high school biology, and it was last millennium!

make a grocery shopping list (or any to-do list)

Stretch your legs by raising them straight (still sitting down) and rotate your feet

Stretch your arms up and move your neck, rotate your shoulders

Think what went well today

It’s difficult but not impossible

(Yes I’m being an idiot, I agree with you)

Do they make 55" OLED monitors? Only stuff I’ve seen is LED, and I’m pretty sure the picture/color quality is inferior to proper tv panel

Well I’m already a bad programmer, at least I save time /j

And clean the kitchen while you sleep!

Seems to me the whole argument boils down to “they (the passkeys) are generally saved in proprietary non-communicating stores”, which is fair. But then the problem is not the passkey, it’s the fact that we (as usual) give all our stuff to corps. It’s the eternal struggle of easy of use vs. better security.

I host my own vaultwarden btw 😊

There is so much old and creaky stuff lying around and people have no idea what it does. Beige boxes in a cabinet that when we had to decommission it the only way to understand what it does was doing the scream test: turn it off and see who screams!

Or even stuff that was deployed as IaC by an engineer but then they left and so was managed “clickOps”, but documentation never updated.

When people talk about the Tier1 systems they often forget the peripheral stuff required to make them work. Sure the super mega shiny ERP system is clustered, with FT and DR, backups off site etc. But it talks to the rest of the world through an internal smtp server running on a Linux box under the stairs connected to a single consumer grade switch (I’ve seen this. Dust bunnies were almost sentient lol).

Everyone wants the new shiny stuff but nobody wants to take care of the old stuff.

Or they say “oh we need a new VM quickly, we’ll install the old way and then migrate to a container in the cloud”. And guess what, it never happens.

It depends on the client and the security implementations they support. For example IIRC no client support the last version of OMEMO (I think it was about OMEMO, I remember an article about it some time ago). Also are you sure that all the other people’s clients are on the same version and you’re not susceptible to a downgrade attack?

Unless you are ready to/want to control the whole environment (i.e. at least the clients and possibly the server), look into simplex.chat

Simplex.chat is the current best one AFAIK

Simplex.chat

No identifiers, pfp, FOSS, can route through tor.

Or host your own matrix or xmpp server.

First questio is: can you ask your home internet provider for ipv6?

Otherwise sign up to tailscale and connect your vps server (and your pc/devices) to it.

Uh interesting. That’s even fancier than I need, I don’t have the space for more than 48" or 50" I think. Thank you a lot for the tip!

The problem is that usually picture quality is not the same.

If there were big monitors with the same color quality and in the same price range I’d do it. But usually large monitors are for signage.

At least that’s what I’ve found.

Yeah you don’t need btrfs, I’ve always done with ext2/3/4

You can do it even after installation https://linuxconfig.org/linux-software-raid-1-setup

You can configure the software raid during installation of Linux, when you define partitions/disks configuration.

And for the love of Linus use punctuation please, makes reading what you write quite hard otherwise!
