Social media != Internet It doesn’t cost much to get an instance for masto, a forum, …

A part of the people can’t leave FB, other Insta, other discord, others,… but each time something else arrives. Stop thinking that big techs are the omega. Think change. Get use to change.

With AI nowadays, I re-use a lot my bash knowledge to check what it proposes to do.

It was for a sys admin position, that I forced into a devops, and left to join an SRE team.

I use to play with SSH a lot as I also worked in ITSec 🤭

Just to share, a funny question in an interview I had was: what are the 3 command you prefer? I remember having a smile, hesitating, and responding bash, ssh, and man.

I got the job. 6 months later I got that I have been the only one to smile (I like the domain) and respond basic commands without looking like a smart ass. Also, I have been able to respond 3 when half of the candidates couldn’t (with AI nowadays, it’s going to be ecen funnier).

50+ ? Are we talking about over hours or parenting/home care?

How do you deal with the risk of loosing the VPN (and thus the access)?

Or a typo, we will never know. :D

Always funny to ask how you change a fingerprint if its leacked.

The Greenland Shark genome has roughly 6.5 billion base pairs, which is the largest genome of any shark sequenced.

I would just say #cyberpunkisnow

What is the meaning of writting here? What is the goal? What is the gain? What did you learn? What would you have done differently ? How many limericks could have been written instead?

Kimsufi.com for low cost servers from OVH.

Shadowrun Anarchy v2 :D

It is the first commercial succes I would say.

Also DnD as a thing is the best known in the US. Check Das Schwarze Auge in Germany, or Cthulhu in Japan.

Finally, could we agree that even if we aren’t perfect and can improve… and agree quickly that “yeah, the DnD bit should have been TTRPG or <insert a nice game that people could be curious about>”? The person describes a Food Fight in a Stuffer Shack - a Shadowrun classi - and I have to argue that TTRPG would be a better fit than DnD?

So let’s use the keyword even if it is meaning less in order to get interest, focus, …

I get that DnD bashing is annoying. I’m tired too. But… could we start to try? Could his person with followers show then that DnD isn’t the Alpha and the Omega?

It reads like an intro for a Food Fight indeed.

Agreed. I would add that most detractors don’t understand what a threat model is and want a perfect solution, for no cost, and easy to use. Something which is impossible.

LOL

And now we patronize.

It is clear if you just take time to ask. You give of what you know and think as if those were facts.

They are like any company, not big, just any company nowadays. Their limit is the limit of trusted computing (can you make a CPU execute somthing without it knowing what it does). All the rest can be encrypted, at rest and in transit.

Can they resist to threat like your government? First… you call it government but it is all the country. Laws were there before since decadeS now.

Can they resist against the state? They can resist, not vanquish, because it is the State. Can they be shut down? Yes. Do they have the choice? No, or their service wouldn’t exist. Creating a datacenter which is virtualy al,ays on is hard, this is why the full globe gave up except few companies for which is it their main business.

Instead of announcing facts which are just opinions, ask questions. Instead of despiting what you can have, see how to improve it of replace it. But don’t diminish what is offered (ffs it’s even free).

And don’t patronize. If you don’t want to discuss then go post this on Facebook. Your context is the U.S. , it isn’t the world, and this place is called the Web. I’m not perfect, I’m not above you, but at least I know that I am not alone, that my culture isn’t the inly one here, and I can appreciate when somebody wants to help.

So let’s tolerate each other without spitting on what other people may like because “it has your gov money”. All isn’t bad. Look at the NASA, the Internet, … We could live together if we want to. The question is do you and how do you start.

It has to be their fault. They have to be as bad as the others. And if they aren’t perfect we have to despite them even more than those who don’t even try and who push fascism in our world, right?
