You couldn’t make a proprietary server. Client is fine, AGPL doesn’t apply when you are accessing the server over a public API.

Agreed. But I think the right to monitor the police doesn’t have to mean real-time access to police radio. The radio could be recorded, like body cam footage, and released on demand with FOIA. FOIA allows redactions when needed, so sensitive information like victims names and addresses could be redacted.

I can vouch for the node 804, although I haven’t used the others so I can’t say which is the best.

No.

I’ve been using Kopia for all my backups for a couple years, both backing up my desktop and containers. It’s been very reliable, and it has nice features like being able to mount a backup.

Nope. And more importantly, it looks like nobody considered what might happen if the signal gets spoofed. The backup systems that are supposed to keep working if GPS breaks also break due to these spoofed signals.

Yeah I mostly open Nebula when I’m watching a video, and the creator says “I had to censor this on YouTube, you can get the full version on Nebula”

Did they get rid of the questions? That was the most awesome part of OkCupid. Because you not only answered the questions but you could pick if you cared what your potential matches answers should be.

I met my wife on OkCupid, we were a high % match according to OkCupid and we did turn out to be a great match. That’s stupid if they got rid of that.

Fines. And say you seeded a movie to 1000 people and a DVD of the movie costs $20, they sue you for $20000, treating it like you broke into a warehouse and stole 1000 DVDs of the movie.

Yes I agree with you, but I just don’t see how getting rid of copyright laws would fix this. Copyright laws aren’t helping artists enough, so instead of fixing copyright laws we should get rid of them? What do we do instead to protect artists?

how many musicians don’t have the right to their own work because record companies dominate the music industry?

But not having copyright law doesn’t fix that, it makes it worse. Without copyright law if you make music, a big label can grab your music and sell copies without paying you anything. Sure you can try to sell it yourself and try to educate customers that they should buy it from you. But the big label can easily out-advertise you and get into the top spots on streaming services, online and physical stores etc. and get 99% of the sales.

Same for artists, writers, programmers, photographers, or anyone else whose work is protected by copyright.

I fully agree things are not great right now, but that’s not copyright laws fault. I think you need other laws and regulations to fix things, like small creators should be able to sue large companies with minimal cost if they infringeme on their copyright. And there should be some sort of provisions so companies can’t trap people in horrible contracts. I’d also love to see fair use exceptions broadened in cases where the copyrighted material is just not available anymore, like old games or movies that are not sold anymore. Shorten the length of copyright too. But getting rid of it completely would not work.

I already donate to Mastodon development, and to the Mastodon server I’m on. It’s a good reminder to donate to the Lemmy server I’m on too.

Men will literally write a Business Insider article instead of going to therapy. No really, I feel like this guy could benefit from some therapy.

It wasn’t until I met a few women on dating apps that I realized being a software engineer in a tech hub is far from special. Working at companies like Amazon or Microsoft just isn’t interesting; it’s the norm here.

It’s weird to expect that you’d get dates just for being an engineer. What? Like if someone did date you just because you are an engineer, that would be such a shallow relationship.

I think one big reason for that is software engineering doesn’t require socially demanding skills like in product management or UX design.

Strongly disagree, software engineering is mostly social skills. It’s all about communicating problems, learning your users pain points, explaining your solutions, and coordinating work. Coding the actual solutions is typically the easy part unless you are doing cutting edge computer science research.

For any family photos and documents you can’t afford to lose, make sure you have backups of it. A RAID array does not mean you don’t need backups: you want at least 3 copies, at least one offsite.

The copy in your RAID array is one copy. You can back that up to an external hard drive or something as a second copy. Then have an offsite backup on something like Backblaze as your third copy.

How about Track & Graph? It’s not necessarily for mental health, it can track anything you want. You can attach notes while tracking, it includes CSV exports, and you can configure it to send reminders.

You probably just want NextCloud then

I don’t like that garage requires manual intervention to upgrade, so I went with minio which can upgrade automatically. I have it deployed with docker, and I use watchtower to pull in upgrades automatically without intervention.

I do love minio. I have backups going into it, and I use it to host my static website blog too.

I thought that ToS was just for their CDN?

You can also use Tailscale Funnel, it does the same thing and doesn’t have a limitation on what kind of content you put through it.

What people are rightfully scared of is that:

• Big websites will only accept attestations from big companies like Google, Apple, and Microsoft
• Google, Apple, and Microsoft will refuse to attest your browser if you have an adblocker installed, or if you are using a browser or operating system they don’t approve, or if you made modifications to your browser or your operating system etc.

While adblocking can be detected, you can block anti-adblock scripts, it’s sort of a weapons race. Depending on how deep an attestation goes, it might be extremely difficult to fight. Attestations might also be used to block more than just adblockers, for example using Firefox, or rooting/jailbreaking your phone, or installing an alternative OS might make your phone ineligible for attestations and thus locked out of a lot of the internet.
