Both grandpas are dead but all 4 are amazing and I wish I saw my grandma's more. I never learned a ton about their past first hand besides my dad's dad who told me about Korea. I mostly talk about what's going on not the past. Sometimes it feels like seeing a teacher or coach outside of school when we talk about the past because you saw them as grandparents and not normal people.

I don't think so. You need to get a large amount of training before you can make a comparable salary, and if you do get a high paying cyber security job there's still a good chance of it being stressful. You can see if you like it using the free tier of try hack me, and if you love it and can afford to take the paycut it might make sense but you are probably better off finding a way to use your existing skills than aquiring new ones

The issue isn't how it's built or based on its that Microsoft can use its control of the os to make it extremely difficult to avoid it.

AI is worse than crypto. Most crypto projects use proof of stake which is way more resource efficient than mining. Also the mining that does happen usually happens where there is excess generation instead of azure datacenters

I believe mods tried this and reddit purged the mods when subreddits only allowed John Oliver images.

Android can be configured to require a pin after a reboot which is an ok compromise if you want to invoke the fifth amendment

Tom Scott does a great job of explaining this. Tr;Dr is paper ballots are a mature process that has the benefit of requiring physical access to tamper with, and governments who aren't great at IT and only do something at scale once 4 years is asking for trouble

If you look at it as generic could provider it's not good, but if you look at it as making m$ run they're software instead of you it's awesome because most m$ software is not fun to run

Immich is the best photo solution I have used and has been really easy to setup. Nextcloud apps are usually ok but usually have a more specialized alternative

I want to try alpine out but the lack of systemd support is a blocker since I don't want to add openrc support to all my Ansible playbooks that rely on systemd services and timers

My open source observability project could use some help https://gitlab.com/shiftsystems/shiftmon

Usually in the observability space it is primarily based on the volume of data and sometimes seat count. Especially if it's freemium like elastic where users can get an idea of volume by running a POC of the free version. Companies do this because of small teams who deploy large infra that would make contracts unprofitable
