Yeah, I agree but at the same time I can't look away from shit like this either...

Being the advancing force has almost always been really hard and risky compared to being on the defensive and entrenched. There is a real risk that this war continues for many years to come with a battleline that moves back and forth a few kilometers with a few key points of interest trading hands back and forth. I think this won't really end because of what happens on the battlefield but because of what happens politically. How long can Putin sustain the war? How far are the Ukrainian people willing to go reclaim Donbas and Crimea? How many lives are they willing to sacrifice to reclaim what was lost?

Literally Jersey Shore for nerds... Why do we primates love trashy drama so much???

Privacy on a non-degoogled Android device is non existent. Just because only Google gets to munch on your data doesn't equal privacy.

Well that entirely depends on what you're running now of course. Due to lack of information I assumed the most common setup of community vSphere or Proxmox on old PCs / SFF workstations. If you're already doing used rack servers, USPs, redundant switches and SAN then it's not really any more proper just more modern. I put fault tolerance as something that takes you from less to more proper. If you're hosting important stuff like say security systems, mail, communication like Matrix and the family photos then it stands to reason that it should be run on infrastructure that will last, make upgrades easy and keep your data safe (which also of course requires some kind of off-site capability as well). That said I don't have the space for a server rack at the moment so I can't realize my plans in this area, but one day I will!

How is it all running? I'd look into moving to proper infrastructure and maybe even go a bit wild and run OpenStack? Maybe with OpenShift on top and migrate your docker stuff into Kubernetes?

Personally I think both OpenStack and OpenShift are cool as shit!

Oright, yes, I haven't studied it properly yet, thanks for the correction.

IMHO, as someone running his own mail server, the real final boss is LDAP and implementing SSO on all your selfhosted goodies. Bonus points if you then use it to login to other services that support OAuth 2.0.

Awesome, I'm only on year 3 or so. Have you implemented DANE? I haven't gotten to a point where I can properly make it work but I'm slowly getting there.

I honestly haven't noticed. For me to see the posts they simply need to get pushed, which is pretty lightweight. And if Lemmy.world crashes after and stays down for a few hours it won't impact my ability to view the post. For a lemmy.world user the instance needs to be up for them to view any content.

Mine beeps when the door unlocks, but I've seen many that beep before the final check. Either to satisfy some "1 hour wash cycle" target or perhaps they expect people to walk to the machine when it beeps and the check isn't that long so it's probably going to be unlocked when you get there?

Could be material for a novel.

So many relationships would fall apart, so many others would be possible were yesterday they were unthinkable.

So many people would completely lose their identity. And so many others would suddenly feel at peace.

Marketing is completely upended. What even is sexy anymore? To whom and why and how do we even know?

Clothing designers, some will thrive when suddenly it feels as if there are no rules, like you can do anything. Others lose it all together, having no idea what to do.

At the same time, people need to sort people. So I foresee a rise in racism, ageism and other discrimination to maintain largely the same in and out groups. But those first weeks of absolute mayhem that noone understands why it's suddenly mayhem would be beautiful.
