I know about Tailscale. I don’t use it because I want my VPS to be exposed to the internet; some of my services are supposed to be public. And those that aren’t, have their own authentication systems that are adequately secure for their purposes. I just don’t need Tailscale so I’ve not bothered with the setup.

I imagine it would be the same protocol for any other instance of a dead person having debt, in whatever jurisdiction you’re in. ie could be taken out of life insurance, their estate, whatever.

I’ve had my VPS exposed to the internet for a while and never been pwned. No professional experience. Use SSH keys, not password authentication. Use FDE if physical access is in your threat model. Use a firewall to prevent connection on internal-only ports.

Vaultwarden will store your passwords encrypted (obviously) so even if your database does get stolen, the attacker shouldn’t be able to read your passwords without your master password.

It’s great. I also self-host my own Forgejo (that’s the software Codeberg runs on) instance for private repos, to avoid using up space on Codeberg’s servers.

Main problem is the lack of federation, leading to splintering across Codeberg/GitLab/sourcehut/self-hosted forges. I know there’s Radicle, and Forgejo is working on ActivityPub integration, but it’s slow-moving to get what should be inherently federated by design (git) to actually be federated. In practice you need accounts on a dozen different websites if you want to regularly contribute to foss.

Don’t worry, the models already spit out poor code quality.

Skirts are fairly common formalwear, at least for women. Are you a man? If not, I think any office job, receptionist job, etc, would be fine with you wearing a skirt. I imagine it’d only be some forms of manual labour where a skirt would get in the way.

Why would a bank make you not wear a skirt?

I was taught vosotros but I learnt in a country closer to Spain than to LatAm. I think they mentioned ustedes in later parts of the course but vosotros was the standard second person plural pronoun we were taught.

Haha I used to do this all the time for my credit card PIN. Every time I had to enter it I had to get out a calculator as I didn’t remember the four-digit number but I did remember the expression I used to derive it.

Signal is fine for normal/social chatting. It is centralised which makes it much harder to obscure identifying conversation metadata, and I wouldn’t recommend it for comms with a state threat model. I like SimpleX for addressing those issues.

If you just want to chat to friends and nothing else, I probably would recommend Signal for the most polished experience and most widely adopted open-source private messenger.

The middle ground is the middle ground between user freedom and corporate control. Which is not a spectrum you want to be in the middle of.

This is like getting a pay rise that’s below inflation. That’s a pay cut. And this is a loss.

And I’ve installed apps with adb install file.apk, your point?

Pretty sure they meant a smartphone with a desktop OS installed on it (eg Linux phones), not just “phone that looks kinda like a laptop but still uses Android”

Then I don’t think that would be the most effective way because most people aren’t paying that much attention, independently of knowledge. What would tip me off to it being a scam would be other parts of the email.

The point schnurrito was making is that even if you know what an IP address is and what are valid or invalid IP addresses, a lot of people won’t read the IP address. They’ll just see numbers and skim over them. Even if you’re keeping eyes peeled for scams, most people don’t have their IP address memorised off the top of their heads so they wouldn’t be looking to check if the IP address looks right or not.

“Psyche” is a different word to “psych”. “Psyche” is a noun, pronounced “sye-kee”; “psych” is a colloquial/casual verb, pronounced “syke”.

I had always assumed it was humorously mis-spelling the word. Like people who would spell it “kool”.

Most people who build software from source do it for reasons other than trust. Could be for fun (I imagine the main reason why people do Linux From Scratch), could be for the same reason that compels some people to use Gentoo lol. OP didn’t say what their motivation was.

edit: nvm, in other comments OP has said they’re concerned about an xz style of backdoor. In any case, I would still be interested to read about someone trying what OP is suggesting.

My favourite unusual one is sichuan pepper powder on garlic bread. Originated in me rummaging through my spices for stuff to add to my garlic bread and I really liked this. I now add it to garlic bread, pizzas, that sort of thing.

Cumin is also a great all purpose spice I put on many things. Cumin+turmeric for curry-flavoured things, but also cumin+salt+pepper+rosemary+garlic granules for anything roasted.

My mostly-vanilla (ie mods don’t hugely change gameplay/add anything crazy) Rimworld runs fine on my probably what’s considered mid-range PC. I second the other commenter; you probably need to cut back on the mods.
