Fermi is just a custom client for discord/spacebar. It’s not federated.

It’s not federated, just easy to self host and point custom clients at.

Faster than my edits, I see.

Docker compose’s don’t really need to be maintained though. As long as the app doesn’t need new components old docker composes should work.

EDIT: Oops, it does look like spacebarchat’s docker images have last been updated over 2 years ago:

https://hub.docker.com/r/spacebarchat/server

EDIT2: Although this is outdated, I think their github repo has an action to autobuild docker images on pushes. Still investigating.

EDIT3: Okay, they don’t seem to be actually ran.

But using nix to build a docker image is pretty cool.

EDIT4: Oh shit, the docker image build workflows were added just 2 hours ago. Of course they haven’t been ran!

Docker support soon, probably.

EDIT5: the workflow ran, but it looks like it’s private for now.

Literally reverse engineered discord, made open source.

It’s not that hard though. There are companies that offer data recovery as a service. If the value of the data on those drives exceeds the cost of those services then it becomes worth it to fish one of the drives out of the dumpster and take it there.

Honestly, the best solution to 1 may be to simply deploy mumble in addition to matrix (or other chat apps).

This is not truly foolproof. Data can still be recovered from the spinning metal platter since it can theoretically be removed and put into a recovery device, even in a broken state.

Im addition to that, hard drives/ssd’s sometimes have small flash memory chips, from which data can sometimes be recovered.

If you want it to actually be unrecoverable then you have to actually ensure all parts thay store data are truly deleted/wiped, which is more than just the core platter. Or just use encryption and throw away the key, since all data going through the tiny OS on these devices will be encrypted. Or just store them forever in a vault.

That’s not quite true. Virtualbox is free but the extension pack is not. It says on the website that it’s under a different license.

Just don’t get it from the website but from a distro’s repos instead and you’ll be fine. Distros usually patch out telemetry as well.

But yeah, Oracle and similar schemes are why software installation is so restricted on corporate devices. It’s basically ransomware, freeware that people are willing to sue over.

Edit: it should be noted that charging people for licensed software in a corporate environment is okay. I have heard stories of Oracle making people buy licences for EVERY computer even if only one person downloaded the software…

Phoronix, you are the trolls.

What about domain reputation?

Have you considered that the reason why your mail server is trusted is because it’s been around for 20 years?

Have you tried to set up mail from scratch on a new domain/ip recently?

I think I’m in love. They have such great variety, and the artstyle is so neat. And I love stickers because they are such great conversation starters.

In the old days, university IT put essentially no access controls on their networks, so students’ dorm computers were completely exposed to the internet

Dorm ethernet works this way for me right now. It’s how I host some stuff. I only get 100 mb/s per port though. I’ve bonded two ports to get 200 total.

Because the extensions replaced wordpress’ sitebuilder/editor. If I were to get rid of the extensions I would basically have to recreate the site anyways so I might as well switch away from wordpress.

Do you have a source or benchmarks for the last bullet point?

I am skeptical that optimizations like that wouldn’t already be implemented by postgres.

Edit: Btrfs has the worst performance for databases according to this benchmark.
