Linux@lemmy.ml•The Engineer Who Tried to Put Age Verification Into Linux
93·8 days agoIt’s definitely wrong to degrade or harass this guy for doing it.
Buuut this is being made to support a bad law that should be opposed. The law is a bellwether for compulsory age and identity verification, which should strike fear into the hearts of everyone. And especially everyone who cares about their privacy (which really should be everyone, but …).
Furthermore, it’s questionable whether a law like this can apply to open source software. IMO it really can’t - who exactly is liable? Is the world really better with ageless Linux outlawed?
Say boss does 10 damage per turn. If you heal 8 points per turn, that means boss effectively does 2 damage per turn, and your effective HP is 5x what it would have been without healing. Heal 1 more per turn, for 9 total and your EHP is 10x. Heal 10 per turn and your EHP is infinity. Heal 11 per turn and your EHP is still infinity, no change. So that 10th point of healing was worth waaaay more than the 9th or the 11th.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•What us the best way to add remote access to my servers?English
6·28 days agoIf the servers have public IPs and you want the minimum possible ports open, just SSH? With passwords disabled and large keys, it’s quite secure.
If that’s still not enough for you or you need a private gateway, then Wireguard. I can strongly recommend Tailscale - It’s really an orchestration layer on top of Wireguard. You can setup your own Derp relays and head scale if you are truly paranoid. But 99.9% you don’t need all that and Tailscale out of the box will work well.
Also Tailscale isn’t a single point of failure the way you’re imagining. It’s certainly possible for Tailscale’s servers to go down, but that won’t drop existing connections.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Tips to vet whether a person you are dating or know might be working for ICE?
8·1 month agoHave you considered… Asking them? If they lie they lie and you’ll find out they’re a shit person (and know it) pretty shortly.
But yeah if you want to get psycho about it just follow them to work.
Not every men’s group is a shitty stereotype.
determine the relative “okayness” in an individual case
Well, yeah?
OP asked the question in general terms, I answered in general terms. With more specific information you can make a more specific judgement. That’s why I said “stereotype, not rule” and separated is vs ought?
I don’t need to list out every possible reason someone might want a gendered group to show that there is a valid reason. Instead just give one. In fact I avoided talking about domestic abuse shelters exactly to avoid this sort of ‘whataboutism’.
As ~always with gender and politics, there’s a pretty big gap between what is and what ought.
What is: The people who make and seek out men-only groups have a stereotype of being shitty, sexist people. The stereotypes around women-only groups are a lot weaker and less negative. These stereotypes are not rules, but do certainly lead to some social stigma.
What ought 1: In a better world gender-specific groups might exist for people to find support and connection around their gendered experiences. There’s some experiences that aren’t commonly shared across genders and it can be a lot easier and safer to share with people who you know also have that experience.
What ought 2: In a still better world there wouldn’t be a significant desire for such groups because we are all sensitive and caring enough that such a group doesn’t make sharing meaningfully easier or safer, because it’s already easy and safe.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Do you think you would survive if you received every injury of your life at once?
2·2 months agoYes. Haven’t even had any really bad scrapes or anything.
Some odd I pass out from blood loss (like everyone). Or pain. Also I’m gonna have even more wicked scars on the sides of my fingers. But like, no broken bones and no major trauma is just really survivable.
Fuck you Un-guy’s your Fieri


Fits with the theme of the comic tho
Sliknet from roshong
from the tangles ooo-of my heart
That’s what I’ve been doing. It’s really lonely
If you’re confused it’s fine to just ask which one to use




Yes it’s technically trivial. I have read the patch. That’s beside the point, which is social and political.
I get to decide and report what does and does not hurt me thankyouverymuch. And I do think this is a step that erodes my right to privacy, taken with shockingly little discussion. (Which got it reverted)
There’s a lot of degrees of freedom between “just comply bro” and “good luck enforcing that”. For example https://blog.system76.com/post/system76-on-age-verification
