They should have send an air balloon instead…

I now the principle of nixos and assume guix works kinda the same. Tell me what’s the problem with static typing and nix in general that guix could have improved upon?!

It’s not about burden, it’s about the ststistical possibility this happens.

Not stealing a car isn’t s burden either, would you let your car sit on the street unlocked though?

Good laws/rules should avoid problems instead of hoping everyone would follow them, which never happens anyway.

That’s why you don’t just outlaw hateful speech and hope for the best but try to instill in young people why hateful speech is bad.

You need a solution that scales and isn’t depending on good will is all I’m trying to bring across 🤷🏼‍♂️

You are totally right and I never wanted to imply that people should be able to take trash into the wildlife. I’m just not sure if it’s the best way to just remove the litter bins. Many people that didn’t get the note will throw their trash into nature because of the lack of a trashcan.

If the trash is already there, it’s too late. There should be a way to enforce that in a way were ignoring or not knowing about the rules will not result in an even worse outcome.

Feels like: let’s remove hospitals so that less people get injured 🤷🏼‍♂️

After using Firefox for 20 years, aside of maybe 3 times I never had any problems. So I can’t confirm the second point at all

Haven’t visited reddit since the API gate. Deleted my account instantly, I miss nothing

TBH, you need additional backups anyway and you don’t need 100% uptime. You don’t need to pay much for it for internal redundancy (aside of storage) and server features.

Buy the nuc, buy one or two 10GB HDD with usb/usb-c and an external case and your are good to go.

But in the end, any PC will work. Get a cheapo PC, buy 1 SSD for the os and container and a big external disk for storage.

I’m running a Ryzen 5 5600G with 32GB Ram, B450 Chipsets, 1TB SSD for internal and 2 4tb SSD for storage in a micro atx. Cost me around 1200€ bucks 2 years ago.

You can even use an old laptop with a broken panel if you like.

Another possibility is, to buy a cheap (old) server from some company renewing it’s support contracts (loud, space, power hungry).

Or buy an fanless industrial pc. Anything is possible. You could even try to use arm.

I’d recommend to optimize for power consumption, noise (depending where it is located in your home) and storage. Not ECC or redundancy. as long as you do regular backups to another system, which you should do in any case, there is no reason to pay double for something.

First thing I bought after my system was running, was an additional nic, to be able to use the server as a firewall, not an UPS or another hot standby PSU

20 years ago it was called TCP/Palladium and everyone was afraid this might happen. That was one of the reasons Microsoft implemented TPM chips.

Obviously everyone forget about it until now. Happy new times where Microsoft can dictate which files your, sorry, their computer is allowed to open.

Your own nextcloud instance. Then move everything that is saved at Google over to your own server.

Calenders, Filesync, Contacts sync with android works really nice.

Knowing my data is stored only on my own devices and google doesn’t know more about me than I do is a nice feeling.
