MigratingtoLemmy,

200K so I’d be able to purchase a decent flat

MigratingtoLemmy,

Forgejo for you chap.

Honestly I’m kind of surprised that Gitea is still being recommended on Lemmy, it’s been a while since Gitea was acquired and the community has been raging since. Lemmy is regressing

MigratingtoLemmy,

Forgejo please. Gitea was acquired by a for-profit company

MigratingtoLemmy,

Terraform for day 0 operations is a better experience but it had its quirks. Ansible is nice when it’s done well, but when you don’t have an Ansible module for something, you’re essentially writing a shell script

MigratingtoLemmy,

Wait how? What do you use? I think I’ve seen a Terraform connector for Kubernetes but that’s about it

MigratingtoLemmy,

Please explain to me how using Public WiFi is unsafe if the traffic is encrypted with TLS. Unless they somehow installed a keylogger on everyone connected to said Wifi and picked it up from there, the only way this was possible was on some quick text analysis and recognising the IP address from Snapchat

MigratingtoLemmy,

Ah, I completely missed this. Of course they use Cloudflare, perhaps the biggest MiTM-service on the planet.

Thanks, this makes a lot of sense

MigratingtoLemmy,

Docker can be run rootless. Podman is rootless by default.

I build certain containers from scratch. Very popular FOSS software can be trusted, but if you’re as paranoid, you should probably run the bare-minimum software in the first-place.

It’s a mess if you’re not used to it. But yes, normal unix networking is somewhat simpler (like someone mentioned, LXC containers can be a decent idea). Well, you’ll realise that Docker is not really top-dog in terms of complexity when you start playing with the big boys like full-fledged k8s

MigratingtoLemmy,

Yes

MigratingtoLemmy,

Include IoT and maybe electrical engineering in that if you’re hard-core into cheap little devices/sensors from Aliexpress/Taobao

Me vs my ISP

So I was looking into getting port forwarding set up and I realized just how closed-off the internet has gotten since the early days. It’s concerning. It used to be you would buy your own router and connect it to the internet, and that router would control port-forwarding and what-have-you....

MigratingtoLemmy,

Yup. I’ll open a port in a cheap VPS and tunnel my traffic over that rather than directly open ports on my router. If people here can trust Cloudflare they can use their tunnels too

MigratingtoLemmy,

Whatever works. I prefer OpenVPN/Softether for their SSL VPN implementations, and am too lazy to be arsed to deal with stunnel and Wireguard. But if you’re not as paranoid then Wireguard works perfectly fine

MigratingtoLemmy,

Unfortunately, Firefox is the best option right now, and it works rather well, unlike about 5-6 years back when it was horrible.

I’ll use Librewolf and Ungoogled-Chromium

MigratingtoLemmy, (edited )
  1. Use DoT
  2. Use Librewolf
  3. TOR has been compromised, use it sparingly.

Understand the fight. We have three major pipelines for leakage of inferences/data on the internet:

  1. IP
  2. Metadata
  3. Content we produce

How many of you run a Linux phone (Pine64, Librem etc) as your daily driver?

I was going through Pine64’s page again after I found the latest KDE announcement. With that said, I seem to see a lot of issues with firmware on the Pine, whilst the Librem is just plain out of budget for me. Was interested in how many people here run a Linux mobile as a daily driver, and how has your experience been?...

MigratingtoLemmy,

This is an insult to this community, and such low-effort shitposting shouldn’t be allowed.

On a serious note, this is laughable at best. Of course, there is no limit to security paranoia, and I’m hardly qualified to comment on the affairs of Cybersecurity for better OPSEC, but I wish they would be at least a little bit more informed than average. This journalist seems to have very little idea that the government knows what they are saying anyway

MigratingtoLemmy,

I would love to be able to use a Linux mobile as my primary but I know that’s not going to happen, unfortunately.

MigratingtoLemmy, (edited )

I would have liked for Linus to maintain his angry-man-finger-thrusting self against evil corporates like Nvidia. I suppose I’m asking for too much, but his mild-mannerisms towards developers is a welcome change. Towards such corporates though, not so much. I would have liked some more motivated cursing against Intel and Nvidia and IBM. Oh well.

Other than that (which is a minor gripe from me at the most), touching message from Linus. Indeed, the maintainers are graying, and the current generation isn’t that interested in kernel programming. I’m sure there will be talent around (as long as the big companies need Linux to run their servers, I’m sure someone will turn up), but someone to rise to the helm with a fiery approach to openness is very important to my heart. I don’t think we will ever see another Linus in our lifetime, and I will personally grieve the day Linus and his core set of maintainers pass away.

I am not a programmer, and the best I can do is provide some funding to people who can/would engage directly with the kernel. But if the situation becomes so dire, I too will get my hands dirty, if nothing but to help the cause. Long live FOSS!

MigratingtoLemmy,

Why would anyone go into debt for something like this? If you can’t afford it, you should clearly not be buying something like this.

Other than that, it is largely foolish to consider other’s opinions on a lot of our actions.
