Femboys(,) are you going to be in the office tomorrow morning?

The second. It’s unlikely, but not impossible, for a vpn provider to be compelled to keep logs, either selectively or for everything.

I’m not saying they aren’t providing a valuable service to many people. They are to me. But they also have the potential to cause great harm to their users, and are very hard to hold to account, should they ever do that. So I try finding the one I distrust least, and use that.

I don’t really see the parallels to ‘nothing to hide’. It’s just a bit of, in my eyes not entirely unjustified, paranoia.

I am generally distrustful of anyone who takes money to hide potentially illegal activities. I don’t think they shouldn’t ever be used, but they do have the potential to be a massive weak point, and the way they’re set up to avoid censorship laws also means you can’t really hold them to account, should something go wrong. Ever tried sueing anyone in Panama?

Yeah, but the creators advertising Nebula also make the content, and there’s definitely VPN providers I distrust less than those two.

Okay, yeah, I was looking at the full size model.

Are they, though? You need shit loads of Vram, or at least RAM, to get a usable experience.

Nah, 7 fucks. 7 is cool.

Kinda off-topic, but while Molly defied stereotypical gender roles back then, I dunno whether she was necessarily queer. Like, she might have been, but I don’t remember any pointers in the book.

That’s kinda bullshit. Like, yeah, 30 Minutes delay on an ICE Journey aren’t necessarily uncommon, but with distances where the ICE makes sense, they’re usually faster than driving, and a traffic jam underway that delays you by about that isn’t all that unlikely on those distances either.

With more local transport, it usually runs on time for me, and I use it almost daily. Might vary by region, though.

Yeah, OK, my journeys where all around five hours. Double is kinda mad.

I had four long distance ICE journeys in the last two months. Three where thirty minutes late, one was two hours late.

Also had four long distance TGV journeys, of which one was about 20 minutes late, and one was an hour late, though that delay happened in Germany.

Apparently, DB is currently working on the infrastructure, but those renovations haven’t been fully funded, and it looks like the conservatives will get in next.

I mean, that kinda goes against the self hosted ethos, but it’d probably run fine on Oracle always free.

Like, I host everything on my local server, but I’ve got symmetrical gigabit, and all my user (family, some friends) are on my tailscale network.

If your friends are willing to use tailscale, or something like that (you can do most of what tailscale does yourself, but that involves quite a bit of work), it’d be pretty easy to host at home. There are several ways to make whatever you host reachable from the public internet, but that usually makes everything a much bigger hassle.

My power costs for my server (Ryzen 5 3600, GT710, 16 GB RAM, 10TB storage) are usually 10-15€ a month, which is worth it to me. You could do a lot with a way lower spec CPU, but that’s what I had lying around.

Not quite comparable, because long distance, but for someone usually bouncing around Germany, the TGV network is kinda crazy. A bit envious after returning.

Like, the ICE is usually faster than driving, and I don’t have a car anyways, since I don’t really need one, but having a separate network for high speed rail means the French are just on another level.

For me - not necessarily for concentrated viewing, but I can deal better with some boring tasks when I have something in the background that keeps my brain occupied, be it a podcast, a long video essay, or whatever else.

Here’s an one hour video essay, if you like one hour video essays.

Both, I guess?

I’m neither Sir, nor Madam, just Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Customer.

Well, yeah, anyone that solders memory and storage will be exponentially harder to fix. I’d be hard pressed to think of any more difficult to fix than the current Apple lineup. Equally difficult? Sure, there’s plenty.

I wouldn’t be surprised of there’s shome shitbox out there I just haven’t had in front of me yet.

The one thing I’d agree is that it tends to be harder to fix hardware issues. Well, on the new one’s you just don’t because it’s soldered, but a friend’s late 2015 27 inch imac has a borked SSD, and to replace it, we’d need to take off the glued on screen.

Softwarewise, I prefer the issue-finding experience to the windows one, though.
