I get it. It’s not that everything was better back then, it’s that the things that were better, were way better.

It’s a feeling of profound loss at what could have been if capitalism didn’t win.

Podman is the way.

The only way this flies this long is that the whole lot of them are corrupt. The investors, the platforms, the regulators, the banks. All of them.

Someone needs to start sleuthing to document all those who are even potentially involved, what they are supposed to do, what they aren’t doing and submit the lot of it to the FB… …

Oh right, never mind…

I disagree. Not in the sense that you are wrong. The similarities to previous grave mistakes is often stunning.

My own personal thoughts are that even though the similarities are there to other historical blunders, the sheer scale and depth of pure stupidity and gross incompetence on full display right now for all the world to see is so mind numbingly unprecedented on so many levels that it shouldn’t be referred to as anything other than a brand new low.

It’s like referring to anything else somehow makes it seem less bad. Even though past conflicts were devastating.

Dude is a legend. A reminder of how the FBI was and should be. If only the core US systems had more like him, maybe this shit show wouldn’t have gone so far

How hard is this type of service, as a self hosted docker app, to develop?

Wouldn’t most of the underlying codec and streaming technologies be more or less extendable into a platform?

The fact that I might actually agree with Putin on anything is not an expected turn of events, but here we are.

I misread the title and thought ICE messed with some Italian mafia connected journalists. Honestly, I think that would be better at this point.

Unity amongst gangs in the US vs. one common enemy.

What happens if somehow the trump clan gets kidnapped while golfing?

Edit: I feel like I should point out that I am in no way suggesting or encouraging anyone to try this. I’m just genuinely curious.

It’s the never ending battle between what’s secure and what’s practical. In order to have widespread adoption, it has to be easy. In order to be secure it requires layers of complication.

It’s a yin/yang battle.

A bank vault with walls 2 feet thick, 24/7 surveillance and requiring a two key unlock mechanism is secure compared to a house door lock on a regular suburban bungalow, but is it very practical?

The level of digital security generally attainable is limited by how likely someone is to use it.

2FA using keys is the closest I’ve seen to a happy medium, but it has to be implemented correctly. If the private keys are sitting on a cloud server somewhere and it gets hacked, is it more secure? Maybe not.

Just like real defence, the walls are only as good as the foundation or weakest point.

My self hosting journey is limited mostly by time. When I have it, I try out new setups or tweak my current one. Otherwise it’s just lower end maintenance and updates.

The last time I had ample time I managed to get a double WireGuard (both in and out) working, so that’s something I suppose.

I can’t see anything disagreeable in this summary from my own experience so far though. Great stuff!

The pay rate of the lowest paid worker of any company or institution should be somehow legally and directly tied to the pay rate of the highest paid executive.

If the executive wants to make more money and gets a raise, then so do the workers.
