I can only speak of on Linux. If you know the disk is bad, clone it, with ddrescue, and fix the clone. But in future RAID and backup remotely. Also, next gen filesystems like ZFS and Btrfs for check sums and self healing and subvolumes with send/receive deltas between them.
I feel bad buying things DRM’ed, so I very rarely do, and not for myself. I don’t want to fund that. Feels much better funding DRM free work.
Also depends on the country. It isn’t everywhere. Non-commercial file-sharing is legal in a number of European countries and I’m sure elsewhere.
It could be taken as a sign of the health of the democracy’s function and technically literacy of the population. In a society of tech heads with a highly functional democracy, it would be DRM measures that would be illegal…
Just a follow up to this.
So I never ended up contacting O2 to say “please stop this”, I just used Wireguard to home and ignored it. Until the local Morrison’s wifi started doing the same thing but worse and I couldn’t event Wireguard round it.
So I finally just bought a domain and setup my Apache to redirect the old duckdns to the new domain.
So far this all seams to be working great.
I’m not sure that’s true of TV series. I’m not arguing for monopoly by the way. Exclusives are anticompetitive and that’s bad!
Isn’t that an argument of monopoly by Netflix would be better?
Yep. They don’t understand the down sampling.
Storing offline is great and all, but I hope everyone is storing on multiple disks at multiple locations…
Yer didn’t think so, I’m sure photos are being lost.
Exactly, both end points are blackboxes compromised by Facebook.
It only taking one asshole is why it doesn’t work. You just never going to have no assholes. So you need a justice system, and a way of policing the policing of it.
Exactly. Without rules and enforcement, you just get a cesspit. Anarchy just doesn’t work.
Yes! That’s the one!
Ah! That makes sense. I was on world news of Lemmy.ml and the comments where full of nutters and/or troll farms. It was like gote/gout (or whatever it was called), another Reddit alternative I’ve tried that seamed to fill Nazis kicked off Reddit. I unsubscribed and blocked.
Edit: Voat! That was it.
Classic “No thing to hide, nothing to fear.”

I always assumed this would happen, so had a second account. Which had a special email address both of which I only used via Tor and private brower mode.
It’s data that could have value, so I doubt they don’t store it. I think the movie studios didn’t offer enough. Or Reddit thought it was too damaging for this particular sale.
I’m very happy with Nextcloud, and not just for photo backups.
Snapd is something I’m waiting to die to be honest, so things that have it as a prerequisit repell me.
Seriously guys, no one saying Nextcloud?
Yer, I used Rethink DNS in F-Droid to test this already. Basically it’s fine when the DNS is encrypted.
Edit: I was wrong. It was just working again generally.Even with DoH DNS, I still see “Access denied” going to duckdns.org and my sites still don’t work. Direct IP works. Not sure how this block is working yet.
Can it run problem bank apps? I need a bank auth app for work as the bank stopped fobs and it just would not run on LineageOS. It refused to run because “the phone is insecure”. I tried Magisk hiding stuff and MicroG, and a number of way of tricking methods. That’s why I ended up on GrapheneOS, as a compromise without feeling too compromised. Everything seams to think it’s on a normal Android phone, but I’ve sandboxed the Google tentacles. But it would be better if mandating OS wasn’t allowed. If I want to run a “insecure” phone, that’s my “problem”.
