Can’t believe nobody here mentioned nixOS so far? How about moving all of your configs in a flake and manage all of your systems with it?

Couple it to your smart watch, backup every 10 seconds, and make it vibrate when successful

GDPR already exists, but there is no such thing as permanence in politics. Constant struggle

How many days of “fresh food” can someone possibly have left?

Meanwhile, big AI vacuums up the entirety of music produced by everyone from piracy sites for profit and noone bats an eye

Sounds a lot like a license troll. Probably the specific court and potential violation of a law were picked with care. Perhaps they looked through valve’s terms in advance to find a loophole, design their own terms to exploit that etc.

My take after reading the response as well: I think it’s good that 404 reported this. Also, I think Proton acted responsibly. If you don’t read the 404 headline with a “Proton is a snitch!!!” mindset but more as “This is a thing that happened”, then there is some value in this story. Proton had to cooperate, they explain why and what users can do to minimize risks. Be aware.

Agree and this is very informative about that: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xA9Xq7hb6Q0

He also has another video somewhere to stress test some of the disk types I think

Recently took the leap to try it out and it’s surprisingly nice. Especially thanks to the automatic rollbacks, in case something breaks. Only took me a few years of getting nagged and learning about it, and multiple attempts at reading through the documentation.

But for a beginner? No way. NixOS has a serious documentation issue. Also the community structure is a big plus in Debian.

Curiously people seem much more privacy aware with these

Now what does that tell us about the sanity and safety?
