Soon in the Microslop support forums: “Please help, I asked Copilot for the photos of my late grandma and it deleted my entire C drive”.

open source is always a spectrum

It most definitely is not.

No, I use a second reverse proxy for my local network. For example, I can resolve navidrome either via my VPS using navidrome.mydomain.net or directly in my local network with the address navidrome.local.mydomain.net. I also configured the local caddy reverse proxy with a DNS provider module to get LetsEncrypt certificates for my local addresses.

I use a wireguard tunnel that connects to a cheap VPS and then configured a caddy reverse proxy on that VPS that makes my services available on the internet.

I recently bought one and I am quite happy with it.

I would not recommend it. Session is a signal fork that deliberately removes forward secrecy from the protocol and uses weaker keys. The removal of forward security means that if your private key is ever exposed all your past messages could be decrypted.

I use Kopia to do encrypted incremental backups of my user directory.

As for the listenbrainz/last.fm that is kind of a solution, but it takes a very long time to train up your profile to actually be useful.

This isn’t a huge issue, listenbrainz supports importing your spotify history.

There no need to choose on over the other. I host all my podman containers in a Proxmox VM.

You can connect navidrome and many other music players to listenbrainz.org. Like Spotify it creates an end of the year report and it also does recommendations like the weekly spotify playlist.

Looking though the related patents, fart filters certainly seem to be a hot topic among inventors.
Here is a patent for a literal butt-plug fart filter.
This one is from last year.

New ones probably use something newer. The 20 year old elevator in a hospital will only be upgraded if something breaks.

We are far away from the release of the Raspberry Pi if that screen is running an early version of Windows CE. Putting a PC in the elevator to drive the screen was probably the most cost effective solution.

Yes? That is not that unusual and it is mentioned in the third sentence of the article.

I rode up to the 14th floor, my eyes were drawn to a screen built into the side of the lift.

It’s probably only the screen component that is running an old version of embedded windows.

Its Lunduke, a self-proclaimed a-political tech journalist. You can pretty much disregard anything that spews from his mouth.

I consider the fact that karma farming isn’t a thing on Lemmy a massive improvement over Reddit.

All the images in this article are AI generated. The author admitted this after being explicitly asked.

You make it sound like a huge conspiracy but there are laws and regulations around everything you try to sell, especially for electronics.

You also have to do EMF radiation testing, ensure that your printer doesn’t produce toxic aerosols or fumes, and probably a bunch of other things to prove that your product is safe. I don’t see why the fingerprinting isn’t just another thing on the list of things you have to do to be in compliance with the rules. If your company is capable of producing something as complex as a printer, encoding the device’ serial number into a bunch of yellow microdots that you add to the printout shouldn’t be an issue.
