The packages still exist, you can install them, its just not by default. Their argument for splitting is that they can be updated independently, but that doesnt explain why the h264 plugins aren’t just included by default.

Arch split out the h264 decoders from vlc, and its not installed by default, so last time I needed to use it, it didn’t work. No idea why they did that.


I’m willing to bet they don’t do dna sequencing to make that art.
Just send in someone else’s DNA. Stray cat maybe?


I have a lot more faith in tailscale holding the fort against enshitification. They at least seem to have planned their business plan around free tier for advertising, and minimising the cost of the free tier traffic. Can’t predict the future of course, but from a business model POV, they appear to be well setup.
Headscales main issue is that they rely on the tailscale app, and if the app got paywalled or locked to tailscale, that would kill headscale overnight.
I am very happy with headscale so far though, bit fiddly, but once setup it works very well.


I have all my domains on my pihole pointed to the local address, so I only noticed when my uptime monitoring of the external sites started pinging me. But for me, the outage was at 10pm, so it really didn’t matter either way.


There are no domains that are infinite time ownership (AFAIK, please correct me if I’m wrong), but its pretty close to ownership. I have the rights to the domain for 10 years, and I get first dibs on renewal after that. So its sorta renting/sorta owning?


Yes. I bought the domain through them, to keep it all nice and simple.


Yup, happy. A 3 hour outage once in a blue moon really isnt a big deal. Especially when I pay $0.
I host a website for my partners business, and as I pointed out to them, while their website is down right now, so is everyone else’s, so not really losing customers.


Would certainly liven up the tour de france.


Care to elaborate?
My reasoning was that motorcycles normally can’t kill car, and cars can often kill multiple other cars. But in terms of likelihood of crashing, or the likelihood of serious injury/death, sure? I’m not a motorcyclist, and I dont drive drunk, so I dunno…
Finally, the answer I’m looking for. Brb
Where does the oyster poo go in the ocean?
If I swallow a live oyster, can I drink dirty water safely?


It lessens it in the sense that he can make jokes about it.
I got a DUI, but its okay, I was in a barbie jeep. Lol.
That its posted here is proving my point, its been treated as a joke. We are both sensible people, we know its serious, but others will just see it as a joke. I’d rather they charged him with something else. He’s just as much a hazard if he was sober.


Shit like this just lowers the seriousness of DUI. DUI is bad because real cars (and lesser extent motorbikes) have enormous potential for carnage and death. A pink toy jeep does not.
Surely a public intoxication or nuisance charge exists that would better suit?


I usually do the later when it happens to me.


I would encourage you to setup wireguard or tailscale, so that you dont have to expose SSH at all, but SSH hardening is definitely a good start.
Worth monitoring your SSH logs as well, that’ll give you an idea of how constant the automated attacks can be. Even when I was using a non-standard port, I was getting heaps of attacks.


Wouldnt bother me at all, I probably work with a few undiagnosed colleagues.
The only challenge is making sure we have the right role for you.
ING works fine with no permissions.
