  • Let's be honest: If you're buying 2,5 million licenses, you are not paying the price listed on the website

  • Yeah - people love to shit on Mozilla while posting from fucking Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge.

  • The bad news is that this is a reaction to the recent incident where a Obsidian plugin contained malware and it became obvious that their plugin system is quite unsafe

  • $3/mon is $36 a year. That adds up - most people have to work several hours to earn that money.

  • It looks like there is a fan blowing the hot air away

  • Don't buy their printer. Don't upload to Makerworld.

  • In my case I've taken the really important stuff like birth certificates, etc., and put them into its own folder. Everything else is going into a simple box. I'm not getting that many documents by snail mail. It's actually quite easy to find the physical document: I know from the scam that I've received the document on first of June two thousand eighteen. So I can go back to two thousand eighteen June and then there are maybe two or three documents which I've received in that time frame. You can also simply write an ongoing number on the document.

    And how do I tell from the scan if there is a paper document? My scanner is naming those PDF in a typical method. If it is called Receipt_000123.pdf, I know that it is coming from my scanner and that there is something physical

    I'm not aging out papers. I'm still on the first box, so everything is okay storage wise.

  • That's the neat thing about this: Since establishing the command structure requires everyone to agree, the bad actors can simply block everything until they get what they want. There's no way that they would agree to such a command structure which avoids them

  • even more demanding services (Immich, etc).

    Just for your information, I'm running Immich on an old Optiplex and it does work without demanding a lot of power. Yes, if you import your library, it will take some time to process everything. But after that is done, the amount of computing you'll need is actually near nothing. Processing the images is a one-time job. And if you're not going around taking thousands of pictures every day, Immich will not demand much power. Most of the time it sits idle while not new pictures are uploaded and nobody looks at the pictures.

    (it's the same with Plex or Jellyfin BTW: If you're not running the server for your extended family, you get away with cheap hardware)

  • If it's digital, I'm keeping it. A scan it's just a few kilobytes. And for a normal private person, the storage amount needed is absolutely minimal. Even if you get one important document per mail per day and scan it with a 1MB filesize, you're looking at 365MB per year. If you're 20 right now and are looking at a life expectancy of 85, that would be 365MB*65 = 23GB of storage.

  • The USA used up a lot of their stockpiles in Iran. Bundeswehr wants to buy 400 missles which is more than the US produces in a year and the US did fire over 850 tomahawks on Iran:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomahawk_missile#Tactical_Tomahawk_(TACTOM)

    Which means: There is no way that Trump will sell a yearly production run of Tomahawks to Germany before the US stockpiles are refilled. And that means that the Bundeswehr will not be getting their tomahawks in the next 5 years.

  • I like the idea, but if you think about it, it would take a major EU reform to work. In the current state with every country having its own veto an European army will not be able to be deployed anywhere. We had this one with Hungary being a Russian puppet under Orban. We didn't manage to provide normal aid to Ukraine due to Orbans veto. An European army would face the same problems.

  • My opinion: Plex has made it clear that they want your money. They don't want you to host your own media and be happy with that. They want you to pay a subscription.

    The whole Plex Pass Lifetime subscription is kind of a trap. You might be getting away with paying once currently, but let's be honest: That means that they have taken your money once. And a some time in the future, a MBA dude will notice that they have a lot of non-paying heavy users (meaning: users who have paid several years ago, which is not relevant for the revenue goals of the current quarter) - and they will try to get you to pay again and again. You might be okay with that, but if you don't want to get hassled, you need to switch to something else.

    Plex’s price hikes prove I was right to switch to Jellyfin

  • That's actually quite a strange location to find a ukrainian naval drone. Lefkada is on the west coast of Greece:

  • "No, I can't pick up the kids right now and visit the in-laws after the race as I promised. Some guy will come around into our home and I have to piss in a bottle"

  • So they're distributing their data center into various neighborhoods and therefore are leeching on power lines and everything else there. Kind of clever but also sneaky an slimy.

  • It depends on your jurisdiction, but it is a GDPR nightmare. There is a difference between exchanging public posts between instances and building political profiles with AI for individual users without their consent.

  • And that is also one of the reasons why it is so infuriating that modern linux based Android systems or Windows wants to steer you away from the filesystem.
