He is. But the people around him and controlling/handling him aren’t idiots.
It’s either in project 2025, or some other republican playbook. Scattershot out a bunch of crazy news to swamp the news cycle and overwhelm everyone, then get to work doing the dirty stuff
It’s part of the strategy.
Overwhelm the news cycle, see what the news picks up and push that more, let the actual bad stuff go under-reported.
Unless your home internet is CG-NAT, both have a publicly accessible IP address, so both will be scanned
Who is externally reaching these servers?
Joe public? Or just you and people you trust?
If it’s Joe public, I wouldn’t have the entry point on my home network (I might VPS tunnel, or just VPS host it).
If it’s just me and people I trust, I would use VPN for access, as opposed to exposing all these services publicly
Your threat assessment is way off.
So, you import a phone. What sim do you use? Where do you use it? When do you use it? Who do you contact with it?
All of that is more valuable and easier to get for the police than some sort of modification of firmware or platform as it passes through customs.
If in doubt, flash your own firmware.
If this is actually a threat assessment to you, asking on Lemmy is the wrong place. You need people with the same experience that an entire country has at their disposal.
If it’s a concern as opposed to an actual threat, buy some 2nd hand phones from random places and buy some prepaid sims (ideally via smurfs or black market means). And be aware of how you use them
The commands you used to start the docker containers, or the docker compose contents.
That’s what dictates how much “power” a docker container has
Autopilot crashes?
You mean MCAS (Maneuvering Characteristics Augmentation System)?
It’s not autopilot. It’s worse than that.
Due to the larger engines needing to be mounted in a different place, the flight characteristics changed between previous gen 737s and the new 737 MAX.
The characteristic change would mean it needs different certification from air authorities and existing 737 pilots would require recertification to be able to fly the new 737 MAX (which is supposed to be just an updated model).
All very expensive for what should be merely an upgraded model.
To avoid this, Boeing used software to change the characteristics in order to bring it inline with previous 737s and the existing certifications.
And as it was just an augmentation system, it was deemed high risk but not critical risk. As such, it didn’t require full redundancy, didn’t require Quick Reference Handbook entries incase of issues/errors, and didn’t require training.
In fact, pilots had no idea it existed, what it could do or how it worked.
Which means when it had an issue and caused extreme pitch down due to faulty sensor readings, the pilots had literally no idea what was happening as they were trying to stop the plane from accumulating pitch down every 5 seconds.
And then Boeing tried to fuck with the narrative. I think they also didn’t tell pilots about MCAS until after the Ethiopian Airlines crash (the 2nd caused by MCAS), but I’m not 100% sure on the timeline.
Boeing has had a stream of QA issues, the way MCAS was handled was idiotic, they are a shitty company.
But I have no issues flying in a Boeing.
I don’t like or trust the company, but I trust the air authorities. And most of all, I trust the pilots.
That’s what I said?
Merge early at speed, merge late during congestion
Merging early when at speed makes sense, because you still have a lot of lane left before you have to merge - less pressure, more time, less likely to make a bad decision.
Merging late during slow traffic makes sense, as it allows you to align with gaps in the traffic and for the traffic to make space for you without having to actually stop.
Yeh, I took “don’t agree or disagree” to be the N/A.
It seemed the most neutral.
I don’t really use anything for bookmark sharing/management. So I don’t strongly disagree or strongly agree with self hosting it.
That’s a great rundown with decent logic & examples behind each point.
I think the biggest point is the takeoff weight.
If the impact/evac/safety aspects can be addressed, the only way I can see it working is to add a “cattle class” that’s like $10 cheaper than current economy and has something like 40 “seats”.
Then increase the price of what is currently economy class by $10-20.
You lose $400 because of the new cheaper class, but gain $1,200 to $2,400 by increasing the price of economy (considering a 160 seat plane, and convert 40 seats to standing). So, net gain $800-2000.
Let’s you advertise new cheaper fares, and the price increase isn’t hugely egregious when the 40 seats sell out instantly.
I guess it doesn’t work on less busy flights if only the 40 cheap seats sell
It’s pretty much just does it.
Default settings are good.
I think you can dial in stricter block lists, but might have issues with some websites.
But you can pause PiHole for 5 minutes, allowing you to do what you need to. I think there is even browser plugins to give you an easy toggle button
If there is ever a way to continue any process without agreeing to terms, services, data processing etc: that’s my default action.
I’m not going to check a checkbox unless the form forbids me from continuing without checking it - at which point, I figure out what the checkbox wants
You are probably underestimating your abilities.
People that worry about overestimating their skills mostly underestimate their skills.
If someone says they are “good” at something, I take it to mean competency and some enthusiasm.
They might make a mistake, but they won’t (or at least will rarely) make it twice.
They know how to find the solution to something within that domain of knowledge. It might not be the best solution, but it will be a solution that works.
They are also aware of what they don’t know in within the domain. So, they can do C++ but know they can’t do embedded programming. Or they can do C#, but know they can’t do game dev.
And I would take them at their word for that, until they prove otherwise.
If they are below where they claim their skill is, I would try to help them learn (unless they show no interest in improving).
If they are above where they claim, I would tell them this.
It’s always hard to judge our own skills.
Chisel, Rathole, an SSH tunnel with port forwarding, a VPN with port forwarding.
Keywords are “self hosted tunnel” or “reverse proxy over VPN”.
Run a VPS for like $5 a month, your local reverse-proxy tunnels out to the VPS, and your VPS forwards port 80/443 over the tunnel to your reverse-proxy.
Damn experts, what do they know?
I’d be careful with that if you don’t properly notify them first.
They might decide to make your life hell by demanding the car back after you’ve given it away.
I really enjoy those “tech bros reinvent…” memes

Yeh it is.
Proving that a scientific theory is wrong means we don’t understand enough about the thing. And we know we need to look at other theories about the thing.
Proving things wrong as well as failed hypothesis is as important (even if it is disappointing) as proving things correct and successful hypothesis. It rules the theory out, and guides further scientific study.
With published papers, other scientists can hopefully see what the publishing scientists missed.
Scientists can also repeat experiments of successful papers to confirm the papers conclusion, and perhaps even make further observations that can support further studies.
