*potatoes, Mr. Quayle.

And to think people hailed Facebook and other online services so much in the Arab Spring of 2010 that someone in Egypt named their kid Facebook.

“Power corrupts” seems to be universal with humans.

Don’t be flippant.

This is like going to a car enthusiast forum and asking “any potential problems with driving a car that may or may not be stolen?”

You have indicated that you’re aware of the potential repercussions of running a personal project in a publicly-funded environment.You’ve already been told that this is unethical everywhere and illegal in many places.

I would tend to agree with the process part of accelerationism, but I don’t think there is a goal.

The “crazy like a fox” theory is contradicted by several pretty dumb tells that suggest the administration is headed and staffed by actual idiots.

If you are so sure of your indemnity because it’s “your device”, why are you asking on Lemmy?

Which part is speculative?

You are trying to derive proof from “lack of proof”, with which I unfortunately can’t help, Senator McCarthy.

What are you trying to signal by denying my claim that there are bots and trolls among the comments?

Read the comments in the Canada community on Lemmy World.

We are talking about comments that are so obviously meant to provoke, stuff like “Your province never cared for you” instead of “man, I wish our government cared for us”. This is an example of reading voice, but there are plenty of examples where the information is too well-formatted or has the signs of being crafted by an LLM.

There are lots of tells, but by now it should occur to us that Canadians are being fed one line of bs, Americans another, eu yet another. All meant to divide us and put us at each others’ throats.

And at this point, it should be plain that information warfare is here to stay, so it doesn’t matter who is behind it now, because it will be someone else in a year or two.

Be vigilant, it’s already happening here; bots and obvious state-funded trolls are in the comments.

Side question, but where are you hearing this about incus?

I’m wrapping up 9 years of using proxmox and I have very specific reasons for switching to incus, but I this is the third time I’m fielding questions in the last month about incus.

More incus:

• mounting persistent storage into containers (cheating by exporting NFS from my proxmox zfs into the incus host.
• wrote a pruning backup script for containers, runs daily
• passed through hardware (quicksync) into jellyfin container (it works!)
• launched an OCI container (docker home assistant) natively in incus (this is a game-changer!)

Next:

• build 2nd incus node
• move all containers from proxmox to incus
• decom proxmox
• setup Debian with NFS export

I was just joking around, I hope you didn’t take it too personally. I’ve been hearing a lot of KDE enthusiasm lately.

And xfce is great, but it has its pitfalls.

I also get excited about projects, I’m no different.

I have a surface pro 6 and I love it.

You should, however, mention that the cameras do not work (yet), which makes this a no-go as a full laptop replacement.

Good stuff!

I just vi the systems/system/fancyname.service files father than use systemd edit, but I think the result is the same.

There are two configs you can add to the [service] directive:

user=someuser

This should allow you to run the service under the credentials of your choosing.

Remember to systemctl daemon-reload after making changes to unit files.

That is not normal. I have much the same setup, sabnzbd, Plex, jellyfin, sonar, radar. They all run under a particular user and their /opt and /var/lib folders don’t ‘revert’ to their old ownership and permissions.

Either something is watching those folders and setting permissions, or some kind of immutability is in play, but permissions normally don’t revert like that.

We could require a source on claims. It’s not perfect, but it would weed out low-effort stuff.

to hell with it

You don’t know what you’re asking for here.
