Yep. Debian. I like apt, and I like shit that just…works. Very form after function. So what if a bunch of packages are on “old” versions. They work. The kernel works. KDE Plasma works. I can do everything I want to do without having to constantly be on the bleeding edge. If you prefer newer things, great. I prefer older, proven things. That’s also why I drive Toyota cars and Honda motorcycles.

My Proxmox cluster runs…uh…Proxmox, which is based on Debian. NAS runs OMV which runs on top of Debian. Laptops all run Linux Mint Debian Edition, and so does my 5800X3D/7900XTX gaming PC. The only non-Debian machines in my house are my wife’s iMac and Macbook Pro, and the Home Assistant mini PC.

What a whopper of a title.

Proton didn’t help the FBI. The FBI unmasked the dude themselves with the info they had, a small amount of which was handed over by the Swiss feds that they obtained from Proton per Swiss law.

Y’all need to remember that any company operating in any particular country is beholden to that country’s laws.

Yeah, you could’ve just stopped at “I don’t have social media” instead of burning processing power at a data center somewhere for a pointless ramble.

Eh, own it and move on. Can’t change the past.

And then there’s my $20 Wyze Vacuum, rooted and running Valetudo, that can map my entire floor with a lidar sensor entirely on-device.

Especially when KeePass and its many forks already exist.

“We have already implemented multiple near‑term hardening measures while also establishing plans to remediate or reinforce the relevant components of our service on a timeline commensurate with the assessed risk.”

Translation: “the board already knew last quarter but they wanted their bonuses first”

The only ports I have open are 80 and 443, and 80 just redirects to 443.

I also have a BeamMP server that has to have a port open because that’s just how it works, but that VM sits on its own DMZ’d VLAN, and I only open the port when I’m actively playing the game.
