Imagine the USA being the new North Korea, Donald Jr. eventually following his father to the throne. Ostracized by the world. Global hacker scams and their own version of Juche. The parallels are astounding, esp. if you make a few simple deductions into the near future: distribution of wealth, collapsed economy while claiming it's booming...

Another one? I'm still reeling from the preacher murders.

It's the "Hit Rock Bottom and Turn Your Life Around" narrative. But it's BS - there is no rock bottom. Things can always get worse. There is no miraculous cure. You need to make change happen.

He's a fascist nut, easy to dismiss. But mainstream media are spreading the same lies.

¿Por Qué No Los Dos?

Amerikanismus scheint immer noch stark zu sein. Man nimmt sich ein Beispiel. Lässt sich nicht bitten. Vor allem bei unserer neuen ~~konservativen~~ rechten Regierung. Warum bloss? Dass das alles nicht gut ausgehen wird ist doch jetzt schon klar.

Danke für die Klarstellung. Die Schlagzeile liest sich schlimmer.

Dennoch, der Rechtsruck der CxU - und damit unserer Regierung - ist schockierend.

Daily reminder that FOX themselves said that their News channel is not news but entertainment, and people cannot be expected to take it seriously. ... Then why is it still OK to call it News?

And don't get me started on certain far-right podcast grifters.

Sorry to say but this is just one aspect of dropping out of all climate contracts national, international and global. And yes, AI is making this much worse.

“Hyperscale data centers are the really large data centers that are being built now for [generative] AI, which is really driving a lot of the growth in this sector because it requires vast data processing capabilities,” said Volzer. “The trend is larger and bigger centers to feed this demand for AI.”

Much of the water used in data centers never gets back into the watershed, particularly if the data center uses a method called evaporative cooling.

Think about that the next time you "ask ChatGPT" something.

Just one more reason not to use servers located in the USA for anything.

John Steinbeck books are everywhere: in giveaway boxes, on my father's bookshelf, in every library. I'm ashamed to say that's the only reason I have never read any.

How does he fare in readability?

This is genocide btw. And it makes me feel worse than all the shooting and killing. Whoever is complicit in this, whoever "just followed orders" any step along the way of abducting kids from their families and forcefully supplanting them, I want to see them rot in hell.

data collected through your device by the South Korean tech giant on behalf of “Israel.”

You make it sound so political. It's just business!

It's not even a new thing. Israeli spyware has been a thing for decades.

 
 

Oder, wie kann man das konfigurieren dass sie sich nicht überlappen, bzw. das Programm das sie ausführen. Und am liebsten so dass der zuletzt gestartete nachgeholt wird sobald möglich.

Ich weiss dass ich sowas auch im Skript codieren kann, aber ich dachte mir 💡sollte systemd hier nicht glänzen?

Meine Suchmaschinenbändigungskünste funktionieren grad nicht so gut.

Danke im voraus.


Zur Zeit habe ich das allersimpelste was es gibt:

[Unit]
Description=irgendwas

[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/bin/irgendwas

Normalerweise wird dieser Service über einen Timer gestartet, wird manchmal aber auch bei Dateiänderungen getriggert. Bzw. Das Skript. Das ist eben die Frage, was ist da besser: Das Skript direkt triggern und eine Lock-Funktion einbauen, oder kann man da auf systemd vertrauen?

 

After my previous server got hacked (presumably), I am now looking for new solutions to my needs. CalDAV/CardDAV is a big one.

So far I switched from a content management system (PHP) to a static site generator for my blog, and I'm not looking back.

I wonder if it makes sense to also step away from PHP wrt CalDAV/CardDAV.

As ever so often, this list has some nice info.

I'd like to keep dependencies low. Python would be a good choice because it's already installed on my Debian Stable system. But would it be safer?

Back when I started this compatibility with clients was an issue; but I don't use Android anymore. In any case, is this still an issue?

edit: no, I don't use a web based app; and I'd prefer the server doesn't require admin via web UI either.


Thanks for all your replies! I chose Radicale, already set it up. Only what is needed, simple config files. Very nice. It runs under an nginx reverse proxy and they communicate encrypted (and of course the outside is also encrypted and password-protected). And the web UI can be disabled.

The documentation is very tutorial-like and security conscious.

“Archive.Today” is a popular website for access to paid media content. Well-known domain names for the website are archive.is and archive.ph (and archive.md, archive.fo, archive.li, archive.vn).

What many users do not know: The website provides users' data to Russia.

The data goes to Mail.ru and thus to the Russian Internet company VK. A look at the website with Webbkoll shows the following Russian domain names:

  • privacy-cs.mail.ru
  • r.mradx.net
  • rs.mail.ru
  • top-fwz1.mail.ru

First and foremost, top-fwz1.mail.ru/js/code.js is integrated. Further code from Russia is then loaded.

The following applies to Russian Internet companies:

“Russia demands unconditional cooperation and extensive control options from its flourishing IT economy. It is not just about the full possession of the largest social network (VK) and the largest payment service (Mail.ru), but in the case of Yandex also to influence the entire output of Yandex News.

The data collected show which Paywall content is particularly popular in western media, but could also provide insight about their users. One can speculate about the importance of such data in the hybrid Russian war against Europe and the rest of the West.


(the following part is about the most common originating news sites in Switzerland that are to be archived. It refers to the above mentioned paywall content)

Incidentally (and in addition), anyone who pays for the paid media content must (also) expect for user data to go to Russia:

«Until recently, Ringier sent - thanks to these cookies - the IP addresses of "Blick" readers to the Russian tech company Yandex. […] Yandex is also listed at «20 Minuten». The free news portsal of the TX Group also works with the platform of the Interactive Advertising Bureau. […] The NZZ also sent data to the east. The traditional company on Falkenstrasse has integrated dozens of trackers, including from Yandex and also from Rutarget, an advertising company that belongs to the Russian Sberbank, is fully controlled by the state and is on the sanction list of the United States. »


The operators of «Archive.Today» do not open their identity. Neither an impressum nor a data protection declaration can be found on the website.

“Liberapay” in France should be able to say who operates “archive.today”. If you click on the "Donate" button at "Archive.Today", you will be forwarded to the donation platform "Liberapay".

A (more) reputable alternative is the Internet Archive at Archive.org, best known for the archiving of websites at web.archive.org.

I'm aware this isn't the biggest smoking gun ever. But this particular service is in such widespread use that I feel it's important to shine a light on it.

Of course any post with certain keywords in the title will attract weird commentary, but I think you'll find that even the most contrary ones do not dispute the facts outlined in the article - just try to play them down, or ridicule them.

It's free, it has fast servers, it doesn't ask questions of you. It's a godsent!

I want to have a mirror of my local music collection on my server, and a script that periodically updates the server to, well, mirror my local collection.

But crucially, I want to convert all lossless files to lossy, preferably before uploading them.

That's the one reason why I can't just use git - or so I believe.

I also want locally deleted files to be deleted on the server.

Sometimes I even move files around (I believe in directory structure) and again, git deals with this perfectly. If it weren't for the lossless-to-lossy caveat.

It would be perfect if my script could recognize that just like git does, instead of deleting and reuploading the same file to a different location.

My head is spinning round and round and before I continue messing around with find and scp it's time to ask the community.

I am writing in bash but if some python module could help with it I'm sure I could find my way around it.

TIA


additional info:

  • Not all files in the local collection are lossless. A variety of formats.
  • The purpose of the remote is for listening/streaming with various applications
  • The lossy version is for both reducing upload and download (streaming) bandwidth. On mobile broadband FLAC tends to buffer a lot.
  • The home of the collection (and its origin) is my local machine.
  • The local machine cannot act as a server

That's all. I just found this in a random script. Generates a random UUID every time it's called. I didn't know.

Of course I can also use uuidgen or pipe /dev/(u)random into something to get a random alphanumeric string - but this is built right into the kernel!

In /proc/sys/kernel/random/, there's also boot_id which ~~seems to do the same~~ is static, and some tweakable parameters.

I am myself a newcomer, did a full switch straight from reddit.

However, I did it just a few weeks before mods and admins started to crack down hard on certain opinions. Guess I had seen the sign on the wall.

I believe reddit's clear change of direction has pushed many more people into the lemmyverse, many of them just like me, straight from reddit.

I sense that recently the tone around many subs has shifted towards more agressive and more divisive, and other patterns I recognize all too well from my years on reddit.

Do other people sense this too? Am I on the right track or completely off?
