themelm , to selfhosted in Should I use a rolling distro?

Are you saying that it does work with open suse tumbleweed with the stock kernel?

I havent run opensuse much as a server but am always looking at it and Arch.

Probably going to switch to Arch eventually because the arch wiki is just the best docs I’ve found.

If you’re not relying on say a closed source driver that needs to compile for each kernel update you should have no issues there.

If you set up btrfs snapshots to run on updates then you could always just roll back if there’s a bad one. That’s how my arch laptop is set up.

Personally wouldn’t use Debian testing over arch or tumbleweed though. I think there’s something to be said for being on the same packages as the maintaners and not a testing version.

themelm , to lemmyshitpost in Handy temperature conversion scale.

I do actually wish I could have a decimal place on my truck thermostat. 20 is always too cold and 21 too hot in the winter. And if I change it to F for the increased resolution it’ll change my speedo to miles and shit. Damn future.

themelm , to memes in The difference explained

You mean the Sinister hand? Highly suspicious. Why not use the Dexterous hand? Surely that would work better for manual tasks.

themelm , to nostupidquestions in Did you ever think that maybe all VPN services are actually secretly owned/funded by governments and that they are only giving you a false illusion of privacy?

So apparently they changed the law in Canada in 2012 and now for noncommercial sharing you could be held liable for up to 5000$ for all works not per work. Commercial is per work. So I doubt anyone has been got for non-commerical. But I do know they come done hard on commercial sharing.

The court cases stuff which is where you also called me a sweet summer child. And yeah the whole thread we were kinda talking crops purposes so oh well.

themelm , to nostupidquestions in Did you ever think that maybe all VPN services are actually secretly owned/funded by governments and that they are only giving you a false illusion of privacy?

Don’t condescend to me. I understand the link between government and capital and am not an american.

What are you even proposing anyways? I am against government oppression and copyright law in general. All private property is theft from the commons. But in the meantime I will use a VPN because I trust Mullvad in Sweden more than I trust my own ISPs.

If I was committing crimes that were more serious then I would not use a VPN I would use a more robust security model.

My ISP is not powerless without government. They have massive power, they control 1/3rd of all cellular and internet communications. And like I said also control large amounts of satellite TV and cable broadcasting.

themelm , (edited ) to nostupidquestions in Did you ever think that maybe all VPN services are actually secretly owned/funded by governments and that they are only giving you a false illusion of privacy?

Well there are only three isps here and yes I understand what you are saying but. It never gets as far as government force it doesn’t have too. The ISP will drop me.

Also the ISP is the media company lots of the time, and its only a crime that will go to court and win if I made money distributing copyrighted material.

I don’t want my ISP to know much about what I’m doing either. They aren’t trustworthy, they often get caught illegally shaping traffic and such too.

themelm , to nostupidquestions in Did you ever think that maybe all VPN services are actually secretly owned/funded by governments and that they are only giving you a false illusion of privacy?

I use a VPN to stop work camps I stay at from knowing what porn I watch, to stop media companies from sending me copyright infringement notifications, and to stop public wifis from having as much info on me.

Its all about threat model. If you’re concerned with government actors then you need to be more secure than just a VPN.

My countries intelligence agency is not working with media companies like that. The cops and courts would eventually enforce some order against me if it ever went to court but more likely is my ISP just ditches me as a customer if I get too many strikes.

themelm , to technology in AI hiring tools may be filtering out the best job applicants

I dunno it doesn’t really say does it? I kinda just skimmed it they could be fairly low level out of college type jobs.

themelm , to asklemmy in What's an IT profession that is realistically possible to self-study for and become proficient enough in to get employed within a year?

Theres also serious though niche demand for people with trades knowledge and IT skills too. Plus knowing how to automate all your reports is always helpful.

Things to consider if you have that IT kinda mind and don’t mind playing in the mud. Instrumentation and Controls Technician, always need someone who can mess with comms and networking bullshit. And im some places can get into automation programming, called mechatronics sometimes? HVAC/building automation technician. Industrial electrician focussing on trying to get into commissioning and PLC programming/automation.

themelm , to technology in AI hiring tools may be filtering out the best job applicants

You might if it was a lower level position and you had like helped run your team or something like that. Or maybe university sports. I had hockey team and my high school band on my resume until I had real experience. Talk up things like working with a team and our fundraising stuff. Proves you probably aren’t a complete antisocial weirdo at the least.

themelm , to piracy in Piracy is so confusing these days

It also picks up new episodes as they air.

themelm , to android in Indian government moves to ban ProtonMail after bomb threat

Yes changed ports, I never went too hard on it as im not usually near an office and just used my hotspot for personal stuff.

Also it’s never a good idea to try too hard circumventing corporate “security”

themelm , to android in Indian government moves to ban ProtonMail after bomb threat

I’ve had corporate LANs that I couldn’t route around to my wireguard servers from even using netmakers turn server stuff which punches through most shitty lans.

themelm , to childfree in Maintaining and making new friends when everyone seems to be having kids?

Some cultures use uncle/aunt pretty freely for any older family friend who was around a lot. I remember my mom was “auntie” to lots of kids when I was younger but there was no obligation or anything its just a term of endearment to a close older woman.
