People can grow and change. Not saying he did or didn’t. Just saying that people aren’t a monolith. It’s plausible he just grew and his views changed / evolved.

That being said, it’s highly convenient where he’s positioned himself these days…

Why? And what would be a replacement for it?

Everyday. I’ve got a lot of stuff that uses it. Granted most of it was mostly created a decade ago but with minimal maintenance it works great. The most helpful script is parsing megacli outputs so I can get a heads up on drive failures and rebuilds among other things.

I just came across this - https://fedoramagazine.org/d-bus-overview/ - and I think it explains it pretty well.

Fucking poor people!! Have they tried NOT being poor!? Bunch of lazy entitled poors!! /s

Normally I’d say he’s being a traffic cone of a human being impeding progress. However in this case they’re more like human traffic spikes…

By earned I mean it takes some efforts to gain that knowledge. For example some kind of training, studying, practice, etc. it’s typically during that process you learn how to safely and correctly do things

Info hazards are going to be more common place with this kind of technology. At the core of the problem is the ease of access of dangerous information. For example a lot of chat bots will confidently get things wrong. Combine that easy directions to make something like napalm or meth then we get dangerous things that could be incorrectly made. (Granted napalm or meth isn’t that hard to make)

As to what makes it dangerous information, it’s unearned. A chemistry student can make drugs, bombs, etc. but they learn/earn that information (and ideally the discipline) to use it. Kind of like in the US we are having more and more mass shootings due to ease of access of firearms. Restrictions on information or firearms aren’t going to solve the problems that cause them but it does make it (a little) harder.

At least that’s my understanding of it.

So everyone using FF just had to start visiting more .gov websites (using the correct user agent) ?

Gonna provide more information or is this just a trust me bro situation?

I’m wasn’t implying that you shouldn’t host it yourself at all. Just maybe use a VPS for hosting it yourself.

Getting buy in on the family & friends aspect is being able to match or exceed the popular free services. If there’s a perception that it’s not reliable then it’s highly unlikely they’ll keep using it. So the last thing you want is to have something happen to your internet connection, NAS, etc. At the end of the day it’s the pesky perception equals reality thing that dooms things like this and tanks the spouse approval factor.

Self hosting XMPP works well for most internal things. IMHO communication software that you’re relying on shouldn’t be hosted at home.

Both of those that you mentioned are great. I’ve used ejabberd in addition to that. I think prosody is better. Here’s a link to a list of more servers.

Another option since XMPP can do E2EE is use conversations.im it is my go to for XMPP hosting.

Correct, I was referring to RAW shot on mobile not a proper DLSR. I guess I should have been more clear about that. Sorry!

So what was I wrong about? I’m always happy to learn from my mistakes! 😊

Do you have some whitepapers I can reference too?

Correct, I was referring to RAW shot on mobile devices not a proper DSLR. That was my observations based off of using the iPhone raw and android raw formats.

This isn’t my area of expertise so if I’m wrong about that aspect too let me know! 😃

That’s over simplified. There’s only so much you can get on a sensor at the sizes in mobile devices. To compensate there’s A LOT of processing that goes on. Even higher end DSLR cameras are doing post processing.

Even shooting RAW like you’re suggesting involves some amount of post processing for things like lens corrections.

It’s all that post processing that allows us to have things like HDR images for example. It also allows us to compensate for various lighting and motion changes.

Mobile phone cameras are more about the software than the hardware these days

Yeah, I like to give some the opportunity to explain themselves so they can, hopefully, hear how wrong they are. Even if it doesn’t work that way it just advertises to everyone their views

So correct me if I’m wrong.

You’re saying, in the case of git, that people using largely text based content over protocols nearly as old as the internet itself, just like the rest of the entire world, should not be allowed to do so?

Also what’s the RFC for secondary shitting streets? I must have missed that one.

How so? I haven’t seen any evidence of that.

To add to this systemd can do everything they can. You can isolate network, do fire-walling, and sandboxing pretty easily. Any OCI container can be used too if you don’t want to install something too.
