Exactly, it is a Giffen good and a harbinger of what is to come

Or if a handful of paranoid people read the code for a distribution and publicly discuss everything that they find (it only would take 12 crazies in the whole world)

Only for distributions which don’t do reproducible builds and require full and complete corresponding source code under an FSF approved license.

If you choose to download binary blobs, good fucking luck.

Sounds like the whole world should stop trusting US businesses.

Depending on his contract’s cancellation clause, he might with his own pocket change just resume his show on his own streaming service (or pornhub if he wants to mock CBS)

If the vibe is wrong, just say no and move on.

Come to the fediverse we have porn?

This story made me so mad I puked. I just am at a loss for words…

So they are going to just exclusively start hiring pedophiles huh…

According to the constitution, hell no.

According to the yellow cock sucking pedophile, yes my master….

One could rent drones from Florida businesses nearby and if you are in a country that lacks an extradition treaty with the US Government; well…

It would be more secure if the credentials are in an in memory SQLite Database but that would require you to use something other than the shell. You would need to do a hardware key or have the user do a bootstrap password or have an API that uses a public key to authenticate the remote process passing the credentials

Also they have become crap: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6b0JcNqkZrk

My husband says that they follow a “bathtub” curve and they either die in the first 60 days or last about 2 years when they are scheduled to be replaced.

Further he says enterprise drives stopped having ECC in 2008; so they stopped having any reason to trust them more.

Yeah but S3 egress fees are a kick in the face if you need to recover.

Wasabi is also an option

Technically you can buy a 10TB Seagate EXOS for $114; so you could buy the disk storage even more frequently if you wanted.

But if you don’t want to host your own storage, you will have to pay the hosting company’s building rent, taxes, salaries for their staff and their executives bonuses.

Or you can build a Machine that is at a friend’s house and pay only the hardware costs and benefit your friend. You know, building community…
