As if 80% of western philosophy was written by well off people who sometimes owned slaves.

That would be kinda funny.

Of course, my comment was sarcasm. Sadly there are enough people who fall for these things.

I’m happy that Spain is doing a lot of sane things at the moment. I wonder why.

The creepy politicians who want to spy on people get their app and we get to circumvent it. It’s a win/win situation …

This makes total sense, since not ever department has the same needs.

Also these are work computers, there is no “consumer confusion”- you get what everyone uses, that’s also one of the reasons windows is everywhere.

Lastly, if rolling out different distros is a core decision in your IT you lack Linux experience in my opinion.

I’m speaking about the firmware and other blobs that are there because devices wouldn’t work without it.

Nice, something running in an eBPF context with a blob in the middle, what could go wrong …

Also there are already a lot of binary blobs in the kernel, that also makes me nervous a bit.

What are you using to ship the logs to VL?

If you want to exclude “normal” logs you should start excluding them before they reach VL, so the only logs you have are the interesting ones.

The more you can filter and label at the source, the less you have to work out in VL.

I use alloy (which is kinda heavy) to extract and prepare only the data I want and it works great so far.

I agree with you on some points here. The problem is that these crawlers are hostile to the point of DDOSing sites

So the problem is not that someone archives your public accessible data, the problem is that in doing so either breaks your site or makes you pay for the excess traffic.

I think the web is now broken beyond repair. The commercialisation killed it and the tech monopolies are all that’s left.

So I think small invite only fully encrypted enclaves are all that is left, until someone comes up with a “new Internet”, that can resist the " Techbros", but for now I don’t see that.

Also I don’t see the Fediverse as a solution, it’s just under the radar for now, but if it gets bigger it will be coöpted and sunk.

Well we couldn’t stop capitalism from killing us and now it’s killing us.

Maybe what comes after has a chance to not invent a species killing ideology.

That’s one way how brands or empires are built.

No matter when you see that plane in the news you recognise it as that US president / state plane thingy.

So it fits that while the state is going down it’s symbols are going down with it.
