Thanks for the share and the new channel added to my favs!
The woman's voice on the podcast was very AI'ish... I mean, the way she spoke, the wording... I know this is mostly marketing shit speaking, but that was the first thing that poped up into my mind when I heard her.
How so? From my perspective I'm just saying that yes Microsoft probably doesn't need to implemement such measure, however does that mean that they don't?
But that's always a take people won't argue on because... It's Microsoft, why would they do that? But why not?
That's people hiding behind the benefit of the doubt giving Microsoft a positive opinion given in the absence of full evidence.
I tried a lot of self-hosted read-it later services, but they all have some wired issues when scrapping some specific websites with discussion (like github, stackoverflow...) so I gave up on them.
It's related though. If you have enough money, the means and interest, nothing is impossible. Specially if you are a big player/monopoly in IT.
Yes I don't have any degree in cryptography, AI, or any related stuff in security and mathematics, however I read a lot, tinker a lot and work hard to maintain my homelab and self-hosted services. I'm not intelligent by any mean but I'm not stupid either, critical thinking is a very important aspect but I digress.
To give you another example, to better understand my comment on why I'm thinking like this, are some of the NIST curves in cryptography to sign SSL certificates which do not contain any backdoor by itself but have known weaknesses which allowed the NSA to snoop on communication for years... Intentionally or not that's you to decided with your personal believes. And that's not something I read on reddit or first search engine result but mostly research papers or people in the education sector writing trusted paper. And thankfully zlibrary exist or I woulsn't be able to access those resources.
I surely oversimplified everything here, with my limited knowledge, but that doesn't take away (IMO) that we shouldn't trust any big player in the IT infrastructure overall.
PS: And yes Microsoft probably doesn't need to implemented such measure, cauz' people are anyway giving those info away for free... You're right on this point :).
I'm not sure I get your comment... I learned that crossing different official and reliable sources was the best way to get most of any information bit. Taking the overlapping information as the most reliable one.
Care to simplify what you're meaning, so even stupid me can understand?
Wait until an internal leak reveals how this was a self-backdoored/malware vulnerability.
I will probably get down voted for this comment (because conspiracy?) but in a few years we will see a lot a pikachu faced memes about it. Can't wait to laugh my ass off.
I can't jump in for everything related to NAS, Yunohost or RAID5.
However, If you wan't to host the arr stack with jellyfin or other media server, you probably need something to encode on the fly (some kind of GPU).
CPU encoding is superior but slower. Also this would leave your server CPU for other tasks more important. Encoding is very demanding and could bottleneck your whole server if you only rely on the CPU to do the heavy lifting and share your media server with family members.
☝️But this is also true on Windows. There's no AIO plug&play OS ! That's what arcade and consoles are made for.
You want to customize your windows? Tweak some graphical knobs? Install some plugins? New driver? New hardware? Do some more advanced stuff with powershell?
This all implies some user interaction ! Debugging a Windows issue is not that uncommon but most people just format or restore from a backup image (because it's easier... Less time consuming...).
It's just that people got used to how consoles/Windows/MacOS work and are hand held like they are babies not capable of maintaining their own system.
Don't get me wrong, Linux IS harder to maintain than any other OS, but it also gives you back the opportunity to take control over your system/hardware/personal life !
Yeah I tried readeck and while it does better than the others it still doesn't use single file (or I missed some configuration?)
I do like it because it even transcribes YouTube videos and that's very neat ! However, I work lot on superuser, stack*,ask* pages which aren't properly scraped and render with their comments.
The only perfect working solution I found was singlefile + Zotero.
I do agree :) Just think about those wonderful NIST curves specially crafted to snoop on all communication. If this doesn't makes you extremist and "paranoid" then nothing does...
And in france it was many times in the news about a group of friends who were arrested for using Signal. [...]
I never heard of such a story. Do you have any reputable source to backup your claims?
I just read "open source alternative/hamachi" and I'm already hooked ! Brings back good old memories how I used to play splinter cell coop over Hamachi.
Thanks for sharing, will give it a try someday after I finished other projects in my homelab
Planning to close my Google Play Developer Account. Please say hi if you are interested in obtaining the latest gplay release files from me to help in publishing this app.
Seems like most open source project are leaving Google's official store? That's nice but will leave out some potential visibility for people who have no idea other than Google Store.
I wish their was also an easy way to leave github behind :/. Wait&See !!
