In the article, this isn’t about pollution but sediment from very nearby construction. Yeah, that happens. Kind of why most decent municipal governments plan out stuff so you don’t have people on wells right next to giant buildings. The common exception being gravel quarries, they do regularly disrupt locals wells. This is on them. You should be building data centres in light industrial zones where everyone nearby is on city water.

There’s no way that’s not satire making fun of trumps asinine speech patterns.

Nothing prevents user error. Except, I guess, something impossible to use.

Best you can do is report spam. If enough do that, it’ll give their IT dep a headache.

There are plenty of situations where that’s useful, especially if you can have group chats with images. Think airplanes, weddings, concerts, sports arenas. And if you have meshing and store and forward when nodes are moving around, you can cover a large area that may not have internet. It’s a legitimate tool that no one has done right yet - and as apple only, this is t yet either.

None of them cross the line yet to be “good enough” in practice for all the use cases of an offline messenger. Briar is probably the best, but not useful if even one of your group is on iOS.

No one has got it right yet though. Being apple only, he hasn’t either.

Not entirely the case. There are several companies that market primarily to business users that offer freebies to hobbyists -because those hobbyists sometimes eventually get to buy services for their employer.

Parquet is great, especially if there is some reasonable way of partitioning records - for example, by month or year - if you might need to only search 2024 or something like that. Parquet is great for only needing to I/O the specific variables you are concerned with, and if you can partition the records and only subset a fraction of them, operations can be extremely efficient.

Come on American corporate media, cover these stories you fucking fascists.

Their brilliant idea was to combine the amazing Wireguard with all the ideas from the VOIP world for performant p2p connections of mobile devices. That gave them a head start but especially with headscale existing, anyone can replicate that. Now, their business depends on being the slickest option for managing authentication, users, devices, and ACLs for businesses. The writing is already on the wall for selfhosters - we don’t really need all those features.

Headscale already exists and the Tailscale clients are open source.
