  • Trump says he’ll withhold money from New York if Mamdani becomes mayor

    Jump

  • Threatening to withhold money from a place that gives you the most money doesn't seem like a smart idea.

    If New York and California don't give them their money, the Federal Government isn't going to have money to withhold.

  • I'm pretty sure new Yorkers hate trump more than the Eagles, Red Sox, Patriots, and Mets combined.

  • What are your advices to cool homes without AC ?

  • I have a large room with clear story windows and the entire south wall is windows, in the desert. The roof extends out far enough to block the sun in the summer, but not in winter. In winter during the day it's 90F when it's below freezing outside. The amount of heat trapped from the sun coming in through windows is no joke.

  • The Guardian and Cambridge University's Department of Computer Science unveil new secure technology to protect sources

    Jump

  • Yes, the guardian app allows you to send encrypted messages through their app to their journalists. 100,000 people check the news, one person is whistleblowing. That one person's messaging traffic is mixed in with the regular news data, so it's not possible to tell which of those 100,000 people are the source. Signal messages travel through their servers, so anyone inspecting packets can see who is sending messages through signal, just not what the messages contain. Thats a big red arrow pointing to only people sending encrypted messages. With this implementation, those people are mixed in with everyone else just reading news or even just having the app on their device.

  • Wouldn't you have to have some sort of MITM to be able to inspect that traffic?

    You mean like your workplace wifi that you're blowing the whistle at?

  • How much data do you require before you accept something as "fact"?

    Jump

  • Yes, but only if it matches my current beliefs.

  • Leavitt Gets Skewered on Trump’s Bogus ‘Two-Week Deadlines’

    Jump

  • I think my gauge might be wrong. Where does "being asked a question" fall in the skewered-slammed-crushed system? This might be a she was skewered, and the journalist was slammed by her response?

    He asked her if Trump would follow through on Iran, she said Biden's at fault for Ukraine. Sooo...

  • Sometime around 1996 for my personal Internet experience, we got it and a laptop for my mom around 1994 so she could do something while getting her master's and my parents thought it was super cool so we kept it. We finally got a family computer with a modem in 1996. I had an email penpal. I think I spent an entire day trying to download a demo for a video game that got stopped 75% through because my mom picked up the phone.

  • I've been interested in setting up a monitoring setup like this, mostly out of curiosity about what's going on when I'm not looking. But I know what the answer is and it's not as exciting as I'd like it to be.

  • Millions rally against authoritarianism, while the White House portrays protests as threats – a political scientist explains

    Jump

  • What I saw was young people saying and holding signs along the lines of "fuck Trump/ice" and "we're all in this together", while the older smiling grandmas were holding guillotines.

    It was a good time, got some information on how to keep up the pressure, fun chants. Food trucks.

  • Danish Ministry Replaces Windows and Microsoft Office with Linux and LibreOffice

    Jump

  • Shouldn't be too bad. It'll take a while, but you grab an example you have now in word, tweak it until it works in libreoffice and you're done. The biggest issue I've had was constant transitions between the two. If you just move to one it's a rough start moving, but once you're there you just edit as always. Word isn't even that great at keeping it's own formatting, so it won't be anything new except for learning a new program. it might get difficult once you get to links and embedding, I haven't tried that in libreoffice so I can't speak to whether it's harder or not.

    Beyond that, you should be pdf-ing any finalized documents anyway.

  • You can set up a pretty robust backup system for pretty cheap if you already have the drives, and the knowledge to set it up yourself. I have two always on devices, an NAS that is my central location for important files, which syncs to a backup device with two hard drives that are synced at different intervals. If a drive fails, it gets replaced, and I haven't lost the core of my backups, I might lose some incremental backups, but it's more important to me that I have 3 copies available on different drives. 2 are in one location, the third in a separate location and my syncs are each an interation behind, so if there's a huge screw up, it'll take three sync cycles before the main copies are lost (not including the incremental backups I also keep).

    This setup allows you to replace drives as they fail so you can constantly update with technologies and don't need to worry about what's the best medium.

  • public services of an entire german state switches from Microsoft to open source (Libreoffice, Linux, Nextcloud, Thunderbird)

  • 🤔 I wonder if they'll hire an American who barely dabbles in self hosting and doesn't speak 28.35 grams of German. Or would it be 29.6 mL?

  • I'm not seeing nextcloud mentioned in the article. If they are moving to nextcloud, I wish them the best. It's great for my personal use, but from my experience it's lacking in what I would expect in a work environment. With a government entity coming to use them, it would be fantastic to see some improvements on them because they're almost there.

  • This new 40TB hard drive from Seagate is just the beginning—50TB is coming fast!

    Jump

  • I upgraded my 7 year old 4tb drives with 14tb drives (both setups raid1). A week later, one of the 14tb drives failed. It was a tense time waiting for a new drive and the 24 hours or so for resilvering. No issues since, but boy was that an experience. I've since added some automated backup processes.
