About the same here, though I have to say… Reading the “3 hours per day” part out loud still seems… Insane somehow.

In a similar vein, I’m currently staying at my mom’s house, and the internet is too shit to use my Jellyfin. As a result, I haven’t been watching any shows, and my day seems to be infinitely longer, like a million more activities fit in the sake 24 hours.

You do not need your fingerprint or any other biometric to use a passkey.

You do not lose access to passkeys when you lose your device.

I cannot believe I am rooting for GEMA. What a weird world this has become.

Yes, and I do werether the recipient also knows how to use it.

So, for like, 1% of my mails.

More like: paying someone to maintain the hardware.

Anyways.

Just FYI, your mails with a provider like Proton are not E2E encrypted unless you exclusively wrote with other Proton customers (in which case I assume they are. No idea). Otherwise it’s just encrypted at rest.

I dint really see the benefit over doing it completely yourself, not even offering metadata to a provider, and also having encryption at rest, while maintaining full compatibility with mail clients 🤔

I can access my password manager via the browser from any device.

Not a VPS.

You can store Passkeys in open source password managers.

I don’t know most of my passwords, so the step to passkeys doesn’t feel like a big one. I also really like the flow of pressing Login; Bitwarden pops up a prompt without me initiating it; I press confirm. Done, logged in, and arguably more secure due to the surrounding phishing and shared secrets benefits.

We host most stuff at home, and then additionally some services at Hetzner on an (auctioned) root server. Bloody nice to get really good hardware for cheap, plus unlimited data with either 1 or 10Gbit synchronous network speed, a dedicated IPv4,…

Stuff like my mail server lives there because it HAS to be available, and doing it at home, and doing it well, is next to impossible.

I’m planning a nix hydra + cache server, which will probably also live on the Hetzner server, simply because it’ll have pretty intense jobs to run a lot of the time and I’m not a fan of having the noise of spun-up fans at home.

Both solutions have their place, is what I’m saying / agreeing.

• every VM with state backs up its state to the NAS once a day
• client devices rsync most of their home folder to the NAS once an hour
• at 3:15 in the morning, a Borg backup job starts pushing the days changes to a Hetzner storage box

Through borg, I have the Option to go back to any point in time with the backups. I will probably never need this, hence why it happens in this step, not on the rsync job to the NAS.

Things like movies and tv shows are not backed up, they are replaceable. All in all, about 2tb of documents, pictures, and VM state is backed up to Hetzner, out of the 16tb on the NAS.

Pick and choose your battles.

Yes, your links are both correct.

Yes. Completely open source (not open core) and every action happens in-browser. With Stirling, you send the doc to the server.

Also, Stirling had long-winded whining about their tracking pixel, Bento initially had something similar (but more privacy-friendly) and when asked about it immediately removed it without fuss.

No

I’m a bit worried that the premise just doesn’t provide enough material to make a really good show. Also a bit weird to watch something totally unrelated to breaking bad, but where the cinematography is so clearly BB. Gave me a bit of whiplash, ngl. Well. Let’s see where they go with it!

I will never understand why people wear wear-once, then throw-away clothes.

• if I like the piece of clothing, I want to keep it for as long as possible
• if I don’t like it, I don’t buy it

Nein, waaaas

Nah. In Europe, Venmo is just not a thing, because bank transfers are free and fast. IDs are a plastic card, just like almost everywhere else.

Banking apps are a bit more problematic, because most people (and probably banks, idk) prefer if you use those not just if you have a smartphone and want to do banking on it, but also as a second factor for when you want to log in on your desktop.

There’s plenty of alternatives (TAN readers, for example), but none as simple or seamless, unfortunately. But bank websites are fully featured (and usually more so than the app, actually).

Fantastic. Best use of language models I’ve seen.

Oh what the fuck why can Mozilla not just STOP. Just… STOP. Honestly sick of this shit.
