As the rule of thumb with FOSS projects, it has a horrible name

Time to rename it to one of the very creative FOSS project names

• yet another something (YAS)
• something is not other thing (SINOT)
• OpenSomething, FreeSomething, LibreSomething
• Something<framework name>
• Periodic table
• Somethingify (this one is new)

Kudos to devs though. This is awesome

Dmitry is a legend. Just look at the stuff on his website.

Don’t get me wrong, I like this but why am I feeling like this would be a consistency nightmare for GTK and QT apps

ChatGPT keeps mixing up software versions which is understandable considering the similarities between versions and the way gen AI works

I asked for help on GTK 4 once and responses were a mix of GTK 4 and 3 code. Some of them even contained function names which didn’t exist in any version of GTK

I made a 100GB alt account and uploaded 25GB of files through an encrypted mount. We’ll see what happens when I cancel it tomorrow

Yup I know I am the product. That’s why we are encrypting everything with AES256 before upload using rclone’s crypt remote

I just don’t trust any cloud provider tbh. Performance hit from AES256 is very insignificant and it provides solid privacy regardless of provider. Might as well get the cheap one

Possibility of Google keeping API access up after cancellation is why I asked this question. To learn what happens when to rclone Google drive mount after an expiration

Well, my VPS is used mainly by my friends for Minecraft servers, collaboration, file sharing, streaming and pretty much everything cloud related

Most of them live in Istanbul and my VPS provider is one of the most reliable and affordable providers located in Istanbul.

Unfortunately, Hertzner doesn’t work for me because their prices are astronomical for me compared to Google’s regional pricing for Turkey (40TL/mo = 1.1USD/mo for 2TB)

I just wanna exploit the service as much as possible since I just don’t rely on them. Electricity prices are too high for homelab but maybe I could set up a solar powered server if I save a little (I’m a student, I don’t have much money, but I like the hobby)

I’ll probably try accessing cancelled drive account with rclone and find out if it’s possible

now im really curious about that xxx app…

It is dockerized but that doesn’t really matter since the DB which is probably one of the most private things on your server is also stored in the container. So a hacker who got into the container can steal your timelinize DB

Your best bet is running this LAN-only but that kind of destroys the whole point of it. This thing should never be connected to the internet

Did you read the article I linked? They use RAID to create a virtual disk (similar to a loop device in this context)

Virt manager for qemu. I use docker and distrobox for Linux distros

I recently managed to use my windows partition (for dual boot) as a disk for a qemu. I don’t use it but really cool trick anyways. Tutorial here

Also it’s not very healthy for windows since it is not designed for constant hardware changes. But idc all my apps are installed on D: so I can just reinstall it without thinking about it much

The beauty of Unix philosophy

A program does one thing, and it does it well

That’s the kind of innovation I expect from the Linux community

Now imagine designing a 65 bit computer. The bus, registers, alu…

You’ll probably waste a lotta chips since most of them are designed for working with powers of 2

Oh come on now everyone knows what an adblocker is. It’s right in the goddamn name: ad blocker, the thing that blocks ads.

Even if they don’t know how to disable it they can just google it. And if they lack the skill to do that too, they couldn’t have succeeded installing Firefox in the first place.

Stop trying to justify clearly unethical decisions because you used to like the entity who made the decision

Right? I tried to be as less offensive as possible but it’s really impossible. Anyways im deleting the post
