Would not those laws prevent chewing your nails?

Yep, as can happen easily if you buy in a batch. Just like ransom (related, no?), non-sequential serial numbers please.

If I just happen to get the bad module that craps out after 6 months, the positive reviews are not that helpful.

That's what RAID(5) is for, if a drive craps out you just shrug and get a new one (or warranty), no data loss. Easy enough to cobble together with a PCIe card and 4ish smaller drives, faster too...

Craziest all week for me, guess I curate my feeds different...

God tier VPN solution (if your provider is covered), have two running, one outs in Singapore for *arrs and a localish one for my SearxNG. So much versatility for something so solid...

You need to get out more, the internet definitely gets weirder.

Could someone remember that capsaicin is more toxic to parasites ? Literally kills worms...

Just make inconvenient days holidays, few will complain.

Just make them holidays, everyone works too much anyway, and it's just getting worse for no reason.

If you don't care about privacy, you're probably blasé about backup, but if you have backups it's as simple as 3-2-1...

Boo!

I see this a lot, but do you really think the big players haven't backed up the pre-22 datasets? Also, synthetic (LLM generated) data is routinely used in fine tuning to good effect, it's likely that architectures exist that can happily do primary training on synthetic as well.

Route it through a vpn with gluetun and it does...

Fair enough, but P7 has 5 years of security updates, I think P8 gets 7 yrs, FWIW.

My understanding is that GOS relies on google for security updates (and sometimes the other way around, they've made some flaws known to google). I would trust them to be solid, at least until google drops the P6 security updates, go look up how many years that is. At worst, you can then use LineageOS or something if you need security, hopefully by then you're degoogled. GOS will still work, but to my knowledge, doesn't guarantee updates after google stops updating. It's about as good as you can expect from a ROM, I'm quite happy, personally.

I need privacy, not because my actions are questionable, but because your judgements and intentions are. 

Gold!

Leave it to comedians to actually be on point. Technical 3/10, social 8/10.

Good person. Much like I would like to do. I'd be happy with a VPN for personal use and another one for torrenting (gluetun compatible preferably) Shall look at AirVPN, thanks.

Verifiably no logs without court order (I'm guessing canary pages have gone the way of the dodo now, probably boilerplate in the orders, maybe wrong according to the article, perhaps in some jurisdictions) would be awesome. Verified by external audit is about as good as we can get, so proton, tutanota, I think, others muchly appreciated. I think one of them setup their OS in volatile RAM, which is cool, but probably not legally protective.

No, I don't expect you to go to jail for me, but due diligence minimising knowledge will bump you up my list of providers to choose.

One problem here is those that do verify, usually don't allow torrenting ports, so, no ratios for you. Anyone know what the over/under is on lesser tier VPNs that port share vs a VPS (with all its potential, but which country?) vs Usenet? Looking to have a clue when the time comes, knowledge gratefully accepted :)

I was more referring to the need for RPMFusion (batteries), which is a stumbling block for newbs unless they check the what to install after you install Fedora sites etc. I appreciate the purity, but the poor confused person coming from winblows may not...
