Alma and Rocky aren't really distros intended for casual use, they're designed mainly with servers in mind. If you want an RHEL-based experience designed for a desktop, go with Fedora.
I used CentOS for my servers during CentOS6/7, but since they moved to Stream I run my servers on Debian or Ubuntu instead.
Someone could potentially decide to post something like that in a memes community to cause trouble, which would be worrying for a self-hoster like me. My instance isn't subscribed to anything remotely sketchy, so it sounds like I'm unaffected here, but it could happen.
Ignore the previous, that's literally what they did. I went in and manually purged it from the command line by removing every image from the last 24 hours. For other lemmy admins wanting to do the same (assuming a standard docker setup): sudo find /srv/lemmy/example.com/volumes/pictrs/files -type f -ctime -1 -exec shred {} \;
I mostly do it because I've worked in jobs where my locations were graded on such ratings, and anything less than a 5 was unacceptable. So entering junk 5/5 ratings is my small protest against that without messing up someone's job in the process.
No, it's just doing whatever it does by default for that. Being the only user does take away an element of anonymity, but I don't think it's to an unacceptable level. Sure, they might have a good idea of what I like to search, but they don't know what links I'm clicking on or interacting with, and I'm not seeing any ads from the searches. So I'm a totally useless data point in that regard.
They're already wiping inactive google accounts and all related content. It's going to be problematic for old videos where the owners haven't used the account in some time.
I have a friend that passed away past the limit, I'm going to need to make sure to archive all of his stuff or else it'll all fall into the youtube void.
My policy for giving ratings is that I don't typically rate products, but if I'm asked to rate service, I always rate 5 stars regardless of the quality of service performed. If it asks me to justify why I rated that way, I just write "Yes." and pad it with as many characters as is needed. Usually dots or problematic unicode characters.
I disagree. Consider the average internet user and how much they willingly give up about themselves online. Most of them use social media and have everyone they've ever met added on it, they post directly about what they're doing and often who they're doing it with, and they lend their engagement at things they like. They use Google for a search engine and don't block ads.
So really, for the probably 80-90%+ of the population that captures, the massive surveillance network in place just at that level is perfectly sufficient to gleam anything they might want to know. Even if someone does protect their privacy, people they're connected with still influence their profile through their lack of concern for privacy.
So really, with all that in place, what's the incentive to have a top secret voice surveillance system built on top of all that? It would destroy the market for any phone doing it if it was ever proven. Why take that risk when you can get everything you want from all those other sources instead?
It's possible that she looked up information about cutting down on drinking, and because you're connected in the ad network system, you also got ads from it. They like to learn who is connected to who and target ads that way. Facebook is, as you might predict, one of the most notorious.
I think Dwarf Fortress is going to hold the crown for ultimate fantasy world simulator. I don't think ES6 will allow for systematic breeding and killing of mer-children for their valuable bones.
Disclaimer that I'm not English and don't particularly have a dog in this fight, and my opinions are a little mixed. On the one hand, I agree on the morality there, a lot of people were damaged in the very long term by slavery. But on the other, even if you can say that it's an act to attempt to return the wealth to the wronged people, that doesn't mean the wealth has simply been sitting there for nearly 200 years, waiting for return. That money has to come out of some budget, somewhere.
So where are they going to pull 18 trillion to give reparations from? Certainly, cuts will need to be made somewhere to make it happen, and often, those cuts are usually made along the lines of political agendas rather than things that are objectively bloated.
What was incredibly strange about my situation was that it was initially a DNS problem, it couldn't resolve the addresses tha tthe hotel wifi wanted it to get to for the portal. I double checked, and basic DNS queries were working, just not those ones.
So I figured, I'll go on my phone, grab the IP addresses it's connecting to, stick those in my hosts file, and they'll get resolved. Well, this worked for the first portal address, but the one it redirected to couldn't be reached. Nothing I tried worked, so I had to do what I described above.
