1. Follow the 3 - 2 - 1 backup rule.
2. You can use SMART to see the health of your drive.

I've seen some programs put their shit in ~/Documents which is even worse.

You should be able to set a watch using the Linux Audit system (which home-watcher also uses). Try something like this

 sh

    
sudo auditctl -w /.Trash-1000 -p rwxa -k trash_monitor


  

You should then be able to search for events in the logs with

 sh

    
sudo ausearch -k trash_monitor

  

FYI, the repo has been moved and the link is outdated

It's not 100% verifiable and nobody wants to get a defemation lawsuit. (And perhaps they don't want to piss of a guy that's "friends" with the president)

Some time ago a politician in my country announced they would start treating the people who protested at highways harsher. She said "people think these people are just protestors, but they're criminals"* and that they were "damaging the rule of law"*.

Translated

Earlier on Tuesday, the College for Human Rights ruled that the right to demonstrate is "under serious pressure" due to the arrests of activists. They had called for the blockade of the important thoroughfare.

Yesilgöz does not respond to this criticism. She says that the Ministry of Justice and Security will look into it together with the Ministry of the Interior. The ministry is already looking into the right to demonstrate, about which reports have been published *2.

/* 2 They're currently looking into methods to restrict the right to demonstrate.

It's honestly really worrying how people just accept and even approve of these actions. It's not just because people are being inconvenienced, almost everyone I spoke to never noticed it themselves and that's honestly the scary part.

Lemmy.world is considered the "normie" instance. Even if you manage to find another instance, it won't matter that much anyway since most interactions are from federated users. The only way to avoid leftist views on Lemmy is to avoid politics completely (which isn't viable).

This is completely absurd, why would they want to make the straws last longer?

All instances I've seen of "he's just autistic" on Lemmy were sarcastic and were making fun people actually arguing that was a valid excuse on other platforms.

I recommend going with Backblaze, they're cheap and in my experience very reliable so far. If you're looking for other alternatives, you could get a storage box from Hetzner. It's not S3 compatible but instead supports Samba, FTPS, SFTP, Borg, Restic, RClone, and others. I suggest avoiding Wasabi due to their strange / shady? pricing model where you pay 3 months of storage cost for every deleted file.

For those that are unaware, it's the slogan of The Washington Post, which Bezos owns.

I'm not sure. I think your best bet would be to use a commercial VPN to blend in with the crowd that want to watch Netflix and then connect to TOR, although that does give authorities an excuse to arrest you in many places, but it's not like they would really need it anyway.

I'm not sure if duplicate servers are supported with AP, I suspect it will cause the posts to be shared twice.

I have been thinking about whether instances also being available on TOR could help, mostly due to Saudi Arabia banning lemmy.blahaj.zone. Commercial VPN's are apparently something problematic governments detect, so I doubt that accessing the TOR network is safe.

Why does it list Gitea instead of Forgejo?

I'm not really expecting any attempts to compromise the servers themselves, I think it's more likely to see more website blocks like Saudi Arabia did with lemmy.blahaj.zone did some time ago.

A decent amount of the larger servers are hosted outside the US, which might complicates matters. However, many also use Cloudflare (US based) as a proxy, which might make targeting the Fediverse easier.

Perhaps less so if in a couple months it turns out that the contract went to one of Musk's companies. Having a large amount of money to spend on something intangible can also be very useful.

.world and a majority of the fediverse uses Hetzner afaik.

EDIT: According to Fedidb Hetzner is the most common ASN (excluding Cloudflare).

I considered that too (the ploy, not the brilliant part) when he initially started changing his tone, but it didn't take long before I realized that was very unlikely. His response the diver that rescued those kids in the flooded cave really sealed it for me realize that he's just a man with too much money and not enough sense.
