Another, unrelated, example of the shift in thinking in the Dutch government is about an unanimously adopted motion in the House of Representatives. Last week saw a major storm, and the fire department send out an emergency text warning to people, urging them to check Twitter for the latest updates. However, this coincided with Twitter preventing people who do not have accounts from viewing tweets, resulting in people not being able to see emergency service updates

Yikes

Also on the trezor (hardware crypto wallet)

Big fan of letsencrypt’s certbot with the nginx and cloudflare (or other dns providers) plugins.

Is there any reason to use caddy or traefik over nginx?

Torrents can be encrypted as well, and there isn't a need for a VPN unless you use public trackers, which I don't recommend.

What is the monthly fee for Usenet? I'm more in favor of decentralized systems with the use of seedboxes to speed up distribution, but I'm not against usenet either.

I run my own instance and the one thing I will say is that I don't see as much content browsing all on my own instance versus all on lemmy.world. Not sure why that is.

The download speed on any popular release will max out even the fastest connections. I assume the retention for less popular content is a lot better on trackers, but I don't have enough experience with usenet to say that for sure.

security features

What features?

I didn't know that. Thank you for clarifying.

The WiFi thing was rough, no doubt. He was clearly talking about cell phones, not that it matters.

What about Cornel West?

In regards to RFK, remove the anti-vax piece from your comment and it would be true for pretty much every presidential candidate ever. Dismissing him without a substantive rebuttal isn't doing anything besides getting a pat on the back from those that already agree.

What about Cornel West?

RFK is a conservative

More than Biden? The same Biden that passed the crime bill. The one who quashed a labor strike by the rail workers as president? Seems progressive.

Oh man, now I'm even more jealous.

I really like ansible and have played around with using it to deploy a seedbox. I still want to get it working, but I've given up on doing it all purely through ansible. At this point, I'm thinking the best route is using ansible to deploy swizzin with an environment file and unattended install

I don't understand the big push to defederate from other instances when individual users can block instances as they please.
