So? Pubkey login only and fail2ban to take care of resource abuse.

There are a lot of hero programmers involved in enabling people in Ukraine to defend themselves.

heh

My Matrix-channel for this purpose is called “scratchpad” - and I use it for short-lived information I need to be able to access from all devices. Notes that are supposed to live longer and/or be shared with others go into Nextcloud.

We are the same.

it’s … not … a simple messenger, if that helps?

Do you even open source?

…

Let me rephrase it like this instead: “If we allow manufacturers to just take public domain software and not give back their changes …” maybe it rings some bells?

My extended family use Matrix - including my elderly parents. It’s no more difficult to understand than any other service.

That’s all FUD. Matrix is as secure as Signal if you - like Signal - rely on a single centralized server. Actually, since you can host it yourself, it would be even more secure since you don’t need to trust Signal.

(I defend infrastructure and perform hacks against cryptograph & protocols for a living)

Matrix

Especially in coding?

Actually, that’s where they are the least suited. Companies will spend more money on cleaning up bad code bases (not least from a security point of view) than is gained from “vibe coding”.

Audio, art - anything that doesn’t need “bit perfect” output is another thing though.

Of course, but most people will prioritize their own family members over others. It’s an explanation, not an argument against being moral.

While true, most of them are likely one paycheck away from having their family living in the streets. That’s a powerful deterrent against refusing orders that the US has somehow mastered. That too.

This is the decentralized Internet. It will never function exactly as the centralized one.

I’m old enough to have run a Fidonet node. When I moved house, the points under my node had to switch upstream.

We do however need to work on tools to minimize friction when servers change so that users won’t need to more than a click or two.

What people are trying to tell you is that when you’ve studied Logic at University level “basic assumptions” in elementary school level math aren’t always what they seem to be.

I agree it’s not very relevant though, seeing as we know what level this particular math question is at.

I can see this work as a cab service. Pick me up at home and drop me off at my destination hotel/office. Within a single country this will shorten travel time enormously and for those paid enough by the hour that might come out to be cheaper than wasting time on travel.

oh wow that really put the trust back into Ventoy. Nice! Thanks for the link

Waydroid is pretty nice, integrating the Android apps as regular apps in the Linux UI.

Nah, it’s just misogyny. Compare with the reactions to when Shatner went to space (no one claiming it wasn’t space then) and also had a huge emotional reaction coming back to earth.

I think you completely misunderstand my original post. The trip is a non-story. The KP hate is still misogynistic.

Agree. It’s the complaining on Katy Perry I referenced. By all means criticize all of it with actual arguments.
