Two questions:
Sure, the alternative init systems don’t provide non init functionalities, but other software probably does.
Not how I understood it. Rather, there are alternatives that have potential to be better than systemd, but systemd has the unfair advantage of receiving the funding and manpower.
If alternatives had equal manpower, they may have had better success than systemd.
Don’t entirely discount a project only because it is funded by the US government. Do take that as a big yellow flag, but not auto reject. Better to just asses the project for what it is with caution.
I find it much more likely that the US government has a huge interest in giving the public access to secure communication software that would be unbreakable by surveillance from a typical government. Why? Because those are the governments that are enemies of the US, and where the US is interested in regime change. And the existence of this software is much more influential towards regime change in those countries, rather than being threat to the US.
In fact, these softwares are barely a threat to the US. The US has no issue with them existing because they have such a powerful hold on their state.
But they literally did. What Israel is doing is not new. The only thing new is media coverage.
I don’t really trust these random sites. If you don’t have evidence to show me then I will respectfully dismiss your claims, as I follow Al-Mayadeen myself and know their reporting well.
Support for Israel is their choice and interest. They aren’t being held by the balls like you make it sound.
Do you have evidence of Al Mayadeen lying or falsely reporting something?
They are biased in the sense that they amplify resistance voices where mainstream media crushes those voices. But I have never seen them falsify reports.
And live among civilians when they’re expecting to be paged
Can you please demonstrate how async workflows and monads resolve this issue?
Wouldn’t effect systems still be considered exceptions, but handled differently?
What does Google play do to remediate it?
Couldn’t you do that by just joining an existing server?
It would be in his interest to debate again and recoup the loss. With a bit of coaching he can probably bridge the gap a bit (but Harris would likely still come on top). Harris only looked good in comparison, but she was overall still pretty awful.
Macos has homebrew, which I think can do the same thing!
Even if I disable account registration, I may still be liable if somehow the content ended up on my instance due to federation right? Or is that not a concern?
Aren’t some of these just Firefox pre configured plus some plugins? Wouldn’t you get the same result by just configuring Firefox in a similar way?
Is there a still a concern for self hosters of public instances regarding CSAM content? And if so, any guidance on how to mitigate it?
I am very interested in self hosting, but I am worried of its legal repercussions, especially since I am an immigrant in the country where I live and afraid to get in any legal trouble.
What’s the benefit? You listed some minor things like ZFS and systemd, but is there a major benefit?
Also, can’t you do that with Linux? I use openRC on gentoo.
I’ve heard BSD people criticize Linux ecosystem as “fractured”, and this discourages me from BSD. I see Linux ecosystem as one that grants you choice, and I love that. This criticism gives me the impression that BSD takes that away, that where will be one standard way to do many things. Maybe I am wrong or misunderstood.
Many people will always be obsessed with “engagement”, and there’s no saving them. They’ve been under the influence of big tech social media for too long, and it becomes an addiction.
The fediverse is an option to get away from this, but it certainly is not a cure. The only cure is the willingness to help yourself and change.
You know who else is obsessed with engagement? Clickbait authors
What can systemd do that cannot be done with OpenRC?
