Youtube has been recommending me a lot of "How to become a librarian" videos lately. Even though I never watched any of them and read two books in year at most.

That's opposite though. Aren't custodial wallets hosted by an exchange (you don't own the crypto) and non-custodial wallets are either hardware or software wallets on your device (you own the crypto).

Any time someone has that MRF enabled, I _will_ quarantine the instance without hesitation.

@npub1ysu…2jyl @npub1wah…xc8t I don't see this ever happening. You can try to minimize the number of servers that have your message/post, but it's never guaranteed to be that way. The Mastodon way of sending out rejects to every instance that might have the object is pretty close to what you can achieve without relying on servers not lying. Generally what you put on a decentralized network will stay on it for almost forever.
GDPR is a joke anyway. Most parts of it got worked around in weeks.

@npub1y6t…9wl9 @npub1mnd…jap8 Probably Sweden, so one of the worst laws you can imagine.
Honestly there are not that many domain name registrars with sensible TOS. The only I know are Epik, which is known for having not that great security and their website is constantly broken, Porkbun which has a hate speech clause in their TOS, and maybe Cuckflare.
Same goes for VPS hosting. There's BuyVM/Frantech, Terrahost which are great and then there's Linode, which I don't really trust after it was bought by Akamai and Vultr with which I don't have any experience. Hetzner has the same hate speech clause as Porkbun, so you can't host a Fediverse instance on it, if it stores any remote posts, because they technically can be hate speech.
I know I'm taking TOS's to the extreme interpretation, but that's in my opinion needed, because it technically is under the TOS even if it doesn't make any sense. You can't be really sure.

2024-01-14 16:46:52

- reply

@npub1y6t…9wl9 @npub1mnd…jap8 Their TOS is pure garbage. Technically you are not even allowed to host a Fediverse instance on their domain, because it can make multiple server requests per second. And if you go by that rule not even Nitter is technically allowed. I've never seen a domain registrar restricting what you can host on your domain provided by them unless it's illegal in their state.

@npub1c4s…aqv4 I see. We are not the only one with a dying economy. There was recently a political discussion on our state owned channel about inflation and gist of it is basically that, in order for the inflation to go lower, people need to spend more, so government doesn't have to increase taxes and the economy will start back up.
Honestly how can someone even think of that, when we have almost the same pricing on almost everything compared to Germany, but with half median salary.

That's actually planned, if Twitter refuses to bow down to the regulations.

One problem. Your CPU microcode is broken. Security out the window, most mitigations require microcode updates. And the CPU still has a proprietary microcode in the CPU anyway, which is now broken and not updated.

Actually still usable, if you don't mind power consumption.

Unless you need a powerful machine for any workstation use these days. I can't do CAD work on a ThinkPad from 2011.
The real solution for free software is to use it in places, where it works and use proprietary software only in situations where no free software option is, or is broken and unuseable.

@npub1x2v…ar98 @npub108z…dkr5 When will people realize, that using only free software isn't the solution to everything. Do you enjoy using broken software and hardware?
