Why is Sony particularly bad at security?

Likely will get used as a political tool / bargaining chip in the future. They won't destroy relationships but will certainly be used as leverage.

I imagine that many religion/mythology researchers felt that burn.

OP is making a point that the visibility of queer and other minorities in history and in public is more important than the visibility of straight/non-minority people. Their point was that non-minority groups aren't hated and target for who they are unlike minority groups. It is important to display and teach about the humanity of different groups in order to prevent mistrust and violence against them by the majorities.

If you really didn't understand this then you should get your head out of your ass and wake up to reality.

Thanks to your comment I gave termux another try and finally figured out what I was doing wrong (pgk updates never working). DO NOT install termux from the Play Store, use FDROID. If you use the play store version you have an old and outdated version with old and broken package repos.

When a computer is locked down by an employer it doesn't just mean you can't install software, it means that you CANNOT RUN software that isn't approved.

If you haven't already, check out Proxmox. It's an operating system that specializes in running Virtual Machines. If you run Proxmox at home you can have all the features that you just mentioned and more.

I ran one for a few months until I woke up one morning and it wasn't working. As I was the only person using it, I didn't bother to troubleshoot and just signed up for an account at lemmy.world.

If you want to run your own I recommend you check out the ansible install route. It's really simple and straightforward once you wrap your head around ansible.

What's the point of renting a VPS if you only access it from your own network? I understand why a large company would do it (risk mitigation) but I don't understand why a self-hoster wouldn't just use an old computer at home. Your costs would be reduced and you could more easily control access.

Now that being said, most Cloud VPS providers have a firewall that you can configure from their web portal. If you whitelist your home network public IP then you can be sure that anyone connecting to your VPS will have to be doing so from your home network. You could do the same thing with UFW or Iptables on the VPS but I recommend using the external firewall because it won't take resources from your VPS while defending against a DDOS.

How can they hit!?

Well, for one, my hardware is never very dramatic.

Have you ever bent a paperclip back and forth until it broke? Same concept.

Just a little nitpicking, the words you want to be using are "offSITE" and "onSITE" not "offSIDE" or "onSIDE" (this isn't a football match).

I'm not sure about others but I'm missing news and information from my home town. Reddit was my go-to for that.

That's not crab walking though... that's a climbing technique called bridging. Crab walking is when you move around on all 4s with your stomach facing upwards. https://cdn2.vectorstock.com/i/1000x1000/19/91/crab-walks-sport-exersice-silhouettes-of-woman-vector-23531991.jpg
