Please shut up. No one asked for dragging an already offtopic answer. I couldn't care less for your pedantic and totally irrelevant statements

Keep getting fucked, couldn't care less. The future is decentralized and p2p

Re:The end of the kernel Rust experiment on Wednesday December 10, 2025 @10:33AM (#46218839)
Arch never failed me. The only time I remember it panicked was when I naively stopped an upgrade in the middle which failed to generate initramfs but quickly fixed it by chroot'ing and running mkinitcpio. Back up in no time
Ad blocking is necessary to avoid malware and spyware which is spread by google adsense all the time. It's not just convenient, most trackers won't go out of their way to improve their tracking if a few users start blocking it. Get real and stop parroting
"I don't know anything about open source licenses hence I must spread my ignorance everywhere"
They are literally in PRISM you fucking idiot. But hey, go ahead. Be ignorant, believe what they say and their marketing team which has been deceiving normies since forever

How is IBM still alive? Or is it trying to prove the same
Don't worry, Apple can do it themselves as they have full remote access
And the unreasonable man has decades of security research under his belt and somehow you know what's best?
Safety net is a joke and google only has it to milk as much as they can from OEM manufactures and gives false sense of security
GOS fits into pretty much any threat model where you remotely care about privacy or security
Signal can be used without a phone using signal-cli. You can sign up with it and either attach your account to signal-desktop or keep using signal-cli

Why is it so low? When will big corps get jailed for their actions?

We need a decentralized ddos mitigation network based on incentives. Donate X amount of bandwidth, get Y amount of protection from other peers. Yes, we gotta do TLS inspection on every end for effective L7 mitigation but at least filtering can be done without decrypting any packets

And yet, it's always clownflare breaking everything. Failures are inevitable, which is widely known, therefore we build resilience systems to overcome the inevitable
Re:Cloudflare outage on December 5, 2025 on Friday December 05, 2025 @11:53AM (#46163878)
Clownflare did what it does best, mess up and break everything. It will keep happening again and again

Couldn't care less, sailing the high sea is peaceful!

Clownflare strikes again!

I use sqlite for synapse (since ~2 years) and I haven't noticed any corruption at all. I am in lot of rooms (20-30) with 1k-2k users in a lot of them and the db size is 8.8G currently
Re:Self-hosting a Matrix server for 5 years on Monday December 01, 2025 @09:07AM (#46107585)
I have been hosting synapse for 2 years now and it's been a smooth sail. I don't recall having any major breaking changes, most updates are smooth. Element client itself is definitely PITA but it's getting better
What do you mean? I used self-signed for communication b/w LB and the nginx serving backend

Edit: I don't see any "machine name" on crt.sh for public LB which uses LE

Ah, you meant the DNS address is on CT now. You think I wouldn't know that? Regardless, a dns01 challenge is far better than using self-signed at home

Re:Bazzite: The next generation of Linux gaming on Monday December 01, 2025 @12:51AM (#46103959)
I have disabled read-only mode and I use pacman like you would in a normal Arch system. Makes it a lot easier to install packages
We have a clownflare fanboy here, spreading misinformation!
