You wouldn’t download a Starbucks,…

With Cygwin or WSL yes

You state that you did use the install script, but also that you want to run it with docker. Did you follow the instructions in their docker repository? It’s quite easy to get it running - they included a complete docker-compose, a Caddyfile and all you need.

Edit, I’m dumb, I misread.

I’m with you, but perfect is the enemy of good, so let’s start here. Also, of this is successful, it can be used as an argument for this (“it’s like with games, which now have the legislation to force a plan for their continuation after support ended and servers shut down. Why not broaden that law to also include X?”)

There are some tools that claim to do that. Never tried them, though.

In theory, the DRM plugins should prevent the screen to be recordable, but that might be easier to circumvent than the whole DRM scheme.

Also there are small USB sticks on Ali Express for a few bucks, that tell the host, that they’re a USB webcam. In reality, they have a HDMI input and are capable to use HDCP, so that they’re seen as a valid display for copy protected content. If you want to go the manual route, this is also an easy way to record.

And a blockchain helps to solve which part of the problem? Some were working on mirroring all data to a git repository. In theory, that allows for easy access on all the data, versioning (with commits) and - through forks and merge requests - collaboration and distribution. Also git is a distributed repository that clones the whole history to your local drive.

But with the announcement of the cve foundation, I don’t know whether they will really import all the data in this git repository.

I should send a PR that applies the tariffs randomly and sometimes arbitrarily changes the numbers…

I might even make it so, that it calculates an import deficit by looking at how often your libraries are imported in the codebase of the projects, that the maintainers of your dependencies have vs. the number of imports your code has from them.

There’s also the OpenSource project Wishthis. You can use it on the public instance (https://wishthis.online/) or host your own personal instance for yourself. As it’s written in PHP, a simple (managed) webspace should be sufficient for selfhosting.

There were reports about “Digital Euro” a while back, before all that chaos ensued. If they would have started this now, I’d have said that November 25 is quite ambitious. Depending on the current state of this project and how long they’ve been working on it, it might not be too ambitious. Still, it’s a huge task and there are many ways how this might get delayed.

Also having a payment network online is one step. Having businesses and banks adopt and implement it, is another. Even if this will start in November, I doubt it’ll be a full fledged alternative on day one and it will still take some months to years to get it accepted (almost) everywhere. Also don’t forget, that - if they want to implement Credit Cards - banks might need to issue new cards to their customers. I don’t think, they’d swap them out all at once. More likely they’ll swap them out, when you need a new card (validity date over, stolen, broken,…). This will slow down adoption. Issuing virtual cards on your phone that support this network might help for a faster adoption, though.

Came to suggest this. I ran into the same problem when I tried to host Jellyfin at home. Also I was fed up with all those certificate warnings, depending on which device I used. Since I was already using pihole in my home network, I just went and looked at all the DNS plugins for certbot to learn which provider allows for easy DNS challenges. Then I researched a bit and stumbled upon a provider that was running a sale - so I got a domain for less than 5 bucks/year.

I set the public A record to 127.0.0.1 and configured certbot to use their API. This domain is now used internally in my network exclusively and I just added some DNS entries for several subdomains in pihole, so that it works for every device at home (e.g. jellyfin.example.com / dockerhost.example.com / proxmox.example.com / …).

When I’m away, I shouldn’t be able to resolve the domain, and even if DNS were hijacked, the TLS certificate will protect me from connecting to $randomServices. Also my router is less restricted, which means that I can just use it’s VPN server to connect directly to my home network, if I need to access my server or need to troubleshoot things when away.

Well, it’d only be a deal, if it was very advantageous and good for us, but bad for the US - if they’re really trying to speak his language ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

A toast!

I read this as they’re even generating the frames with AI:

The tech demo is part of Microsoft’s Copilot for Gaming push, and features an AI-generated replica of Quake II that is playable in a browser. The Quake II level is very basic and includes blurry enemies and interactions, and Microsoft is limiting the amount of time you can even play this tech demo

While Microsoft originally demonstrated its Muse AI model at 10fps and a 300 x 180 resolution, this latest demo runs at a playable frame rate and at a slightly higher resolution of 640 x 360. It’s still a very limited experience though, and more of hint at what might be possible in the future.

“We’ve talked about game preservation as an activity for us, and these models and their ability to learn completely how a game plays without the necessity of the original engine running on the original hardware opens up a ton of opportunity.”

No, I don’t think that you’re talking about preservation then. Not even game emulation. You’re talking about game hallucination.

Sadly there are many reports, that it’s just

for (c in countries) { 
    c.tariffs = math.max(10,
        (c.exportsTo(us) - c.importFrom(us)) /
        (c.exportsTo(us)*2))
}

At that point it isn’t your ram anymore…

At least we’re constantly told to be ready to act to reroll secrets, etc and try to automate the change/deployment of changed passwords and such.

Depending on the system you’re working with, this may still be a PITA, but at least we do have plans for even the “problematic” systems and we have probably done this a few times. Although maybe not at this scale, tbh.

So, imagining I were tasked to do that for $hyperscaler in “my” systems… I feel some dread, as even if everything is automated ä, there’s always something that doesn’t go as planned - but at least I know what can be done in which way and which timeframe is realistic (and which parts will be the most sensitive). If you do not have plans, well… Good luck. You’ll need it.

In reality, it does make OPSEC somewhat harder, if you have to constantly remind yourself to not use WhatsApp, Telegram (LOL), whatever and exclusively use $CustomSignalFork to talk business. Human make errors.

BUT I really don’t think this is worth the loss of privacy as this is in no relation to the gains, that I can see. Also as I intentionally mentioned Telegram above - it’s hard to use “right” and this problem does already exist today to some extent which makes the bad trade off still worse. I mean, howany people are you really going “to get” with this?

Ok, who of you guys is working with Oracle Cloud and has not yet rerolled all API/Access Keys, passwords and so on? And what company do you happen work for? ^Just asking for a friend^
