At this point I am seriously wondering why people would like to use Chrome over Firefox for instance.

This is from the Blues Brothers movie from 1980.

AMD published a list with the mitigation on Sinkclose on all their processor ranges, and the ComboPI version that will have a patch!

We have to speed up technology so that it outpaces us humans getting older!

That’s the right question to ask! It may have to do with the Halo effect as well. Even though the influencer not necessarily is a celebrity, they have build a certain level of trust with their followers I guess… In any case, I dont get it either, but I may fall out of the audience for any influencer I guess…

Ah, that is a good point. I am using 6.5.0 kernel atm, as part of the HWE (hardware enablement) package, which supports QuckSync / hardware encoding of my 12th gen intel processor. I did a quick search, but did not find HWE for Debian is that correct?

Yes, I am running unattended-upgrades, and basically my current server is running 24/7 just fine! It is indeed like set and forget already. More reason to move to Debian!

It seems to be the most logical move to go from Ubuntu to Debian indeed. As I understand it maintains the core Linux system as I have it now (systemd / apt / stable kernel) while truly community driven. I have to look into transitioning into the latest stable Debian release.

interesting! So I should be able to throw my docker-compose yamls directly at Podman and be good to go?

just curious; why would you like to use podman over docker? I have a lot of docker containers running, wondering if I should switch to podman.

If you are just looking for a way to SSH into your machines from outside your network, you can setup a more recent VPN or Wireguard yourself. If you have a Raspberry Pi lying around, using PIVPN makes things super easy. You can have both OpenVPN as well as Wireguard running if you want, using the same script. If that is the only thing you like to do, then there is no need to reverse proxy your servers and expose them. Just having a VPN or Wireguard connection should be enough to access your servers when outside of your network. It is recommended to have a fixed IP btw, to find your VPN/Wireguard server easily.

Also, you can leave all your servers locally (and not exposing them) when you can reliably setup a VPN/Wireguard connection. That is the most secure I guess.

Grest that the improvements will be upstreamed to the Wireguard source, so anyone can benefit from the improvements.

What the article does not mention, if the immigrant work force if working against lower wages, compared to native work force. Cheap labor obviously will be a strong rising force.

Are we sure it is the same thing? Alien-in-the-middle attack succeeded… 😁

There is also a very clear upwards trend I would say 😁

Hosting an email server is pretty sure a magnet for half the Chinese IP range… So I would refrain from hosting that myself.

Unmonitored, it will slowly evolve into V’ger now!

Same here. Member of the 12 year club on Reddit, but stopped reading extensively when Baconreader stopped working. Moved over to Lemmy and hope to see most of the subreddits that I frequented on Reddit to get some presence here. I am mostly a lurker tbh, but I intend to get more active to get Lemmy growing.
