As if taking down the systems is the biggest cybersecurity threat a company might have.

It still maintains their market position, which has value. For example, you might not visit other sites because they don't have the content you want (and the content stays on YT because they have the viewers), or you might even share YT links to other people.

My /home is also on a separate filesystem, so in principle I don't like to mounting data under there, because then I cannot unmount /home (e.g. for fsck purposes) unless I unmount also all the other filesystems there. I keep all my filesystems on LVM.

So I just mount to /mnt and use symlinks.

Exception: sshfs I often mount to home.

Thanks!

The mention was at about 12:06, in the form that OLM breaks down at about 50 users "give or take", so it's not really a limitation imposed by the system itself and it would be difficult to impose it. I doubt this is the experience of all Matrix e2ee users at least at that exact point, but e2ee has always had some growth pains, so there could people with those issues; on the other hand few large rooms are e2ee to begin with, so experience on those is limited. E2ee also requires the users to be more mindful about their data as in not to lose their private keys, and these problems probably increase linearly as the room size increases.

I didn't notice any claim of rooms larger than 50 becoming public.

I've only heard a second-hand info about it, but apparently one local policital party uses e2ee in Matrix with hundreds of people in the room, so that should be a proof that the encryption is not limited to 50 users—and this info sounds just as well founded as the information provided by the video ;).

The guy carries on stating that pretty much all of the huge matrix rooms are not end-to-end-encrypted, and I have no reason to doubt that. Personally I see little point in having such large rooms encrypted anyway, because if you have a large room you will also likely have very relaxed checks on who gets to enter it (e.g. it could be completely public), and if that's the case, then so can any party who wishes to monitor the room join the room as well. E2ee won't be protecting those cases. (While at the same time you lose server-side search feature and efficient notifications, though at least the latter one is being fixed with out-of-envelope notification data—which again leaks a bit more metadata..)

The video also makes it sound like that if you have a Matrix Home Server in the network, it's going to end up hosting CSAM. This is only the case if one of the users of that HS are in a room that has the content, so it's not like it will just automatically get migrated there. I imagine vast majority of Matrix Home Servers have limited account creation abilities (e.g. companies, personal home servers, organizations, etc), eliminating or at least highly discouraging this kind of issue.

Btw, the video makes an excellent point about the Matrix CDN issue, which is being fixed currently as well (that change is already merged to the matrix spec), by requiring authentication. Next steps is going to associate media to messages, making this kind of thing even more strict. All this means IRC bridges will need to start hosting Matrix-side contents by themselves, though..

What a nice succinct explanation!

But also completely useless. Run0 ignores the suid bit for the same reason as 99% of command line apps do: it ignores because it isn't relevant to its functionality.

I just noticed https://lemmy.ml/u/giloronfoo@beehaw.org had proposed the same, but here's the same but with more words ;).

I would propose you try to split the data you have manually into logically separate parts, so that you could logically fit 0.8 TB on one drive, 0.4 TB on another, and maybe sets of 0.2TB+0.2TB on a third one. Then you'd have a script that uses traditional backup approaches with modern backup apps to back up the particular data set for the disk you have attached to the system. This approach will allow you to access painlessly modern "infinite increments" backups where you persist older versions of data without doing full and incremental backups separately. You should then write a script to ensure no important data is forgotten to be backed up and that there are no overlapping backups (except for data you want to back up twice?).

For example, you could have a physical drive with sticker "photos and music" on it to back up your ~/Photos and ~/Music.

At some point some of those splits might become too large to fit into its allocated storage, which would be additional manual maintenance. Apply foresight to avoid these situations :).

If that kind of separation is not possible, then I guess tar+multi volume splitting is one option, as suggested elsewhere.

The pins are part of the window, so.. You can access old closed windows through the history menu, which I believe works after starting a new session after quitting it.

I have 64GB RAM and my 64GB swap still gets filled to 60% over time.

It just happens so that apps end up touching some memory once that they never then use again. Better use some SSD for that instead of RAM.

It's two commands to grow the / fs on the fly:

lvextend -L+10G /dev/mycomputer-vg/root
resize2fs /dev/mycomputer-vg/root

So don't worry about it. LVM is great :).

Welcome video game streaming?

I was under the impression cross-site cookies are a standard feature per the RFC, though? Or is Patreon using some kind of non-standard extension?

There is the DJVU format for this exact use case, but you'd need to convert them to, say, pdf for many use case. Its also a bit old and perhaps not maintained, soo..

HEIF and other modern video encoders (HEIF=H265) should fare a lot better than JPEG, though.
