The security reason generally doesn’t exist for home labs because most need to setup bridging or you can’t access the devices on the secure vlan at all.
bridging can be set up in a limited fashion. it could happen with a firewall doing routing and filtering


that mathematically does not stand.
if a drive costs 1000 and another 2000, it cannot be that all is worse than each other!


thanks! as you say because tye 5 vs 136 years it does not really matter in our environment, but it probably starts mattering when you have lots of disks.
I don’t actually know if this is the right way to calculate it, but if for each disk you count the time separately, and add it together for a combined MTBF, then that is 20 out of the 136 MTBF years.
But with 30 drives that will be 150 and indicate that you will likely have at least one error of some kind because of using SATA


yes it’s Hungary. I don’t think it’s russian propaganda, it’s kind of an easy thought to draw yourself if you know where does he come from.
Orban basically control the media, are you not aware Hungary is constantly bombed with propaganda?
no, obviously I’m entirely unaware that the state TV channels, 99% of local and regional newspapers, lots of news sites and most radio stations are spewing propaganda 24/7.
Supposedly SATA controllers are also not built for the abuse I have been throwing them in my machines, and I don’t want to push it.
what makes you say that?


that’s dumb. there are still better and worse prices


tbh, he’s right, many are thinking similarly here.
but that’s no excuse to vote differently


I wonder how the world would change, if these jack of all trades who
investwaste so much time into collecting ideas to fill up their pockets, instead spent more time on actually understanding the ideas they have chosen and build at least a fundamental knowledge.
I am afraid they would be even more dangerous


I think we are mostly charged by the minute, and some plans have a certain amount of free minutes and messages, but I don’t know if that also applies to foreign calls. nowadays I rarely use phone calls though, so I may not be completely up to date


Unfortunately I didn’t have much fun, but good to know you were only here to stir up shit and have “fun”, while spreading bad advice.


if they can detect it, why couldn’t they block it?


I would love to use JMP chat, but they only give a canadian or usa phone number. I guess that would be very expensive for others to call from europe, besides being very unusual
I especially like that JMP seems to be a really honest provider, basing their services on privacy and open source software, which is so, so rare


But lets assume that your microphone is recording everything you say to some llm, and everyone else too. imagine the shitshow it must be to sort all that data, considering how unreliable llm are. There is no way to know for sure what the original meaning and intention of words is without actual human confirming it. there would be so much constantly going on that even with decent automation it would be nightmare to manage, i think.
filtering for interesting words in a transcription would go a long way. I’m not convinced they would need an LLM for this. keyword based targeted advertising was a thing for quite a fewyears before LLMs became widespread.
I have occasionally tried to investigate if my phone is listening even though it doesnt indicate so, but i havent noticed anything that would point to that.
I have friends of all ages who are not really technically adept, and not caring much about privacy either, but who tell me from time to time that it’s like facebook is listening, because of some ad they saw on there. I still don’t have any clue how are they pulling that off, and I hear it too much to accept it being a coincidence.
but I don’t use facebook, I refuse to use their apps, my phone is clean from google too, while theirs is littered with every garbage in addition to the factory bloat, so I can’t do much to figure it out


The scraping/bandwidth abuse problem can easily be worked around.
how?
anubis does not protect the APIs, and it cannot protect against bot traffic coming from many different residential proxies


for anyone reading this, Codeberg/Forgejo can migrate issues too! use the “new migration” function in the menu where you create new repositories, and tick the box for copying issues and wiki. it is a one time copy only, though, so if you are dedicated you should restrict issues on the github repo to collaborators only, so that people can’t open new issues (which won’t be able to be synced anymore), but old ones are still readable in their original form.
syncing issues cannot be done later, it’s for new repos only


for a very long time it was not only possible for experts. like, I would say the last 10-15 years, maybe even more. It’s very harmful that people can now create things they don’t even know how to check what it does, and they just assume this “sentient thing” actually produced what you wanted with no major flaws. thing is, you (or anyone else vibecoding things) won’t be able to determine what is good or bad without taking the time and learning the building blocks, learning how they work and how they are supposed to be used.
also your comments look like AI generated comments, fake enthusiasm and all the rest. it does not inspire much confidence
that’s indeed what he says but it is not obvious whether it’s completely true.
Péter Magyar did not part ways back when Orbán became corrupt. He did that just 2 years ago, when Orbán has been corrupt for a very long time and party members had plenty of time to be accustomed to that, and to being defensive when being accused of that (in case of other fidesz members).
before I become a russian propagandist for saying this, I want to say this does not directly mean Péter will be corrupt too. but many people (including me) think that the chance of it cant be ignored. I’ll be voting for his party, but I’ll keep this in mind.
Orbán definitely seems to have changed, in the very beginning. but maybe he was just a liar, with different motives than he was showing. I don’t know how could someone change that much, but it would be an interesting read if it was ever uncovered.
ok, you’re right there, I was unclear.
