Almost like a hotel where....they'd just have someone on the staff that does the dishes (and sheets, and trash, and ...) To this day I don't really get why anyone prefers an airbnb. More expensive anymore than a hotel and unless you are traveling in a huge group it's just a big PITA. JMHO

"Revive" I think you don't know what that word means. Making sure the datacenter has electricity and water (and provides the token few jobs to run it) is not "reviving" anything in these small towns. It's destroying their environment through excessive utility rates, noise pollution, and water dumping and to think that's "reviving" anything for these people is pants on head stupid.

Nah, I'll agree with you. Element certainly has quirks but Teams is quite bad. Not as bad as say maybe WebEx or others but still quite bad. Element is...fine. Could be better but does the job well enough.

These tech companies are not your friends. You know this right? You don't have to defend the billionaires who don't care about you.

Can't say I agree. I've used DDG for years and noaiDDG since they released it and it's always gotten me results on the first page (and usually in the top 3 results anyhow.)

Who would've thought we'd yearn for the days of "dumb" systems that operated without issue and displayed your song media? It used to be the looks that drew you to old cars but increasingly it's the fact they're not hoovering up your data and doing all other bullshit that makes you wary as well.

Not that EVs aren't helpful and an improvement but just another thing to say they're more about saving the car industry than the environment. The US desperately needs to expand public transit, biking, pedestrian avenues of travel and decrease sprawl.

Linux phones are coming along. Still 10 years out from being viable for most I guess but that is the ultimate goal if you ask me- something that can't be locked up by one gigantic corporation and that lets you do what you want with your own hardware.

That's because people learned IPv4 and not networking. Had they learned the latter this "NAT helps security" BS wouldn't be a thing.

It's not even the flashback. It severely hurts usability/readability. No idea how they greenlit it.

Ingress is pretty defined. You could swap in most and be fine. Traefik and others have middleware/annotations that can do some special stuff if needed. Otherwise you can look at the Gateway spec and choose one of those. A bit more fully featured in terms of serving not only http(s) but also tcp, grpc, etc. Just a bit less fully featured when you look at what custom annotations some ingress solutions built-in (ie. ingress-nginx and others.) Just kind of depends on your use case. If you have no special needs I recommend just getting on board with gateway (traefik, calico, etc. all make implementations) since it's the future of K8s ingress/egress.

Yep. Funny how they tout that it's so great but the label stating they used it is apparently bad? Hmm..

"The point of the system is to make it hard for malware authors to distribute malware" Gonna stop you right there. Google can't even keep malware out of its own curated Play Store. This is not for security. This is about control, 100%. Please don't piss down my leg and tell me it's raining.

Honestly, it's ok enough to use but very cluttered. That and it is far, far uglier than Gnome which has a more cohesive experience. I've set some people up with Debian KDE and they like it but I myself won't switch from Gnome personally. JMHO.

They desperately need a sane social media team before embarking on a whole dedicated phone.
