Yep, and then there’s probably a good number of people who have no idea of threat modelling who just copy those actions to say they have “good privacy”.

Tbh, I’m closer to the latter.

The problem with non-PLP drives is that Rook-Ceph will insist that its writes get done in a way that is safe wrt power loss.

For regular consumer drives, that means it has to wait for the cache to be flushed, which takes aaaages (milliseconds!!) and that can cause all kinds of issues. PLP drives have a cache that is safe in the event of power loss, and thus Rook-Ceph is happy to write to cache and consider the operation done.

Again, 1Gb network is not a big deal, not using PLP drives could cause issues.

If you don’t need volsync and don’t need ReadWriteMany, just use Longhorn with its builtin backup system and call it a day.

I tried Longhorn, and ended up concluding that it would not work reliably with Volsync. Volsync (for automatic volume restore on cluster rebuild) is a must for me.

I plan on installing Rook-Ceph. I’m also on 1Gb/s network, so it won’t be fast, but many fellow K8s home opsers are confident it will work.

Rook-ceph does need SSDs with Power Loss Protection (PLP), or it will get extremelly slow (latency). Bandwidth is not as much of an issue. Find some used Samsung PM or SM models, they aren’t expensive.

Longhorn isn’t fussy about consumer SSDs and has its own built-in backup system. It’s not good at ReadWriteMany volumes, but it sounds like you won’t need ReadWriteMany. I suggest you don’t bother with Rook-Ceph yet, as it’s very complex.

Also, join the Home Operations community if you have a Discord account, it’s full of k8s homelabbers.

The latest doublespeak for oligarch

There will be tougher usecases to migrate. Which, depends on how you use Google.

For example, I’ve never read Google News but am having trouble replacing Keep for synced, widgeted notes (groceries etc) on phone, as well as GSheets for synced, collaborative excel-like sheets with good mobile UX.

Also, I would bundle mail and calendar in one (it’s a single button to import both in Proton and those services are tightly coupled) and check your duplicate browser/chrome mentions

Love it!

I fully understand and I’m not happy about it either. I’d love to hear it if there is a better option in the EU, but it seems like we’ll have to rely on the Germans (for European autonomy and Lemmy).

FWIW, I think the feddit.org admins are handling the situation very well.

How about feddit.org? It’s also European and already gets a lot of traffic

Obviously random is better, but uniqueness of passwords is IMO even more important. They are effectively spreading around their master password

There’s literally only 4 characters difference between all their passwords, even if those would be completely random, that’s very bad.

They don’t seem to understand that it’s not about how many samples you need to see to be sure what their Amazon password is. The problem is that if one of their passwords ever leaks, some bot can brute-force try thousands of variations on it and find any other password very quickly (they effectively only have to guess 4 characters, plus a bit to find that it’s the first 4 to change).

How can anyone think this is more secure than having completely different and long passwords for every site?

They probably don’t understand that your pw manager’s password is safer because you don’t enter it anywhere, only into your password manager (ideally with 2FA). This person is effectively spreading their master password around by putting it as the core of ALL their passwords, significantly increasing the risk that it leaks.

Mikrotik with RouterOS for European-made router without chinese backdoor

That’s crazy and genius!

“I don’t do cloud computing, I do solar computing”

The way I understand it, there’s 2 use cases for a VPN, with different concerns and providers:

• having access to your private home network from anywhere, through an encrypted tunnel (Tailscale, Wireguard on the router, etc)
• having your outgoing traffic to the internet go through an anonymized exit node so that your ISP can not watch or sell what you are doing (ProtonVPN, Mullvad VPN, etc)

Is Tailscale fit for the second? I thought not, as the exit node is not an anonymized VPN server but one of your own machines.

It really is super simple

Just like you! ❤️🥰

It is.

It’s also sad that chickens, fishes and shrimps don’t look as cute and aren’t mourned even though they suffer all the same. They usually don’t even get a plural form.

Interesting approach but looks like this ultimately ends up:

• being a lot of babysitting / manual work
• blocking a lot of humans
• not being robust against scrapers

Anubis seems like a much better option, for those wanting to block bots without relying on Cloudflare:

No.

It is very different from the usual flat corporate style yes, but this is just their branding. Their blog is full of anime characters like that.

And it’s not like you’re looking at a literal ad for their company or with their name on it. In that sense it is subtle, though a bit unusual.

So $30 is all that you need to delete your Microsoft account? Or is the problem that even if you’d rebuy Minecraft, you’d still need a MS account to play it?
