Wait, you saying we didn’t get anything better on the Israel issue AND everything’s fucked at home? God damn, who could have seen this coming?

Generally less able to identify scams so, it tracks.

But the underlying Pentagon leadership hasn’t significantly changed between Biden and Trump (or Bush and Trump, for that matter). Its all the same neoconservative think tanks writing variations on Project For A New American Century for the modern government.

That isn’t congress or the president. Pentagon leadership doesn’t declare war. Congress has the power to declare war which hasn’t happened for some time and since then the president has basically done so, although arguable that it’s been a “formal” declaration of war.

This is what people voted for, up and down the ballot. US voters put Trump at the top and yes men in the house and senate.

Vote better next time, I guess.

Thank god we didn’t elect Dems. Can you imagine?

I knew Lemmy would find a way to make this Biden’s fault.

Probably everything over the next 4 years, honestly.

Many blessings on you and your family

they’re for profit

From my subscription cost, yes. This aligns my privacy goals with their need for income which is not the case for “free” advertising-supported products.

I encourage subscribers to go make themselves heard on this post if you support being able to disable particular indexes such as Yandex.

Why would they donate server space to you on top of giving you free (beer) software?

The way some of you think is very odd to me.

Back up your own shit or pay for sync.

Straight up child abuse. Fuck…

Every once in a while I still spot someone smoking with kids in the car. That shit makes me irate.

Born in early 90’s. We were still responding “non” to the first question that was asked entering a restaurant.

Just as soon as people quit pissing on it.

I supposedly go to work in a building with other adults.

I use restic to back up files to Wasabi.

It’s all scripted but the steps are:

1. Back up
2. Prune based on rules
3. Perform a repository consistency check and do further checks (takes longer) on 1% of the repo
4. Choose 1 random file from the current backup set and get the hash of the current file
5. Restore that file to a temporary location and hash it.
6. Compare hashes
7. Send push alert to me with success/failure and a summary

So you’re saying it’s ok to trust those cloud providers

What kind of trust are you referring to? I trust that they take great pains to protect their cloud customer’s data. CGP is not Google Search is not Google advertising.

Do I trust them to do the right thing environmentally? No. Geopolitically? No. But let’s not get these all confused. They do support surveillance tech but surreptitiously mining their cloud customer’s data has the potential to sink their entire business overnight.

yandex is about 2% of our total cost, to put things into perspective

TOTP or GTFO

I assume businesses only jumped at the chance to enable SMS 2FA to get their greedy little fingers on our phone numbers.

I have not. I’ll give that a shot.

I tried this recently after watching that TechnologyConnections video and it was a complete failure.

The dishes came out with this white dusty film all over them that they didn’t have with tablets.

I tried less powder, more powder, a little more powder on the open door to be in the first cycle and made sure my rinse aid was topped up.

It hasn’t been difficult to get a GPU as a gamer for a few years now. What are you taking about?
