I can see it going both ways. Talking about execution times, this would be an exaggeration, but then, these memes always are.

“Squeezes”, “20%”. Interesting word choice. Feels almost like downplaying. When, in reality, 20% is massive, especially on a CPU like the Threadripper.

Going by what OP thinks “Chaotic Evil” means for sysadmins, they have clearly never heard of BOFH.

Writing good comments is an art form, and beginner programmers often struggle with it. They know comments mostly from their text books, where the comments explain what is happening to someone who doesn’t yet know programming, and nobody has told them yet that that is not at all a useful commenting style outside of education. So that’s how they use them. It usually ends up making the code harder to read, not easier.

Later on, programmers will need to learn a few rules about comments, like:

• Assume that whoever reads your code knows the programming language, the platform and the problem domain at least in general terms. You are not writing a teaching aid, you are writing presumably useful software.
• Don’t comment the obvious. (Aside from documentation comments for function/method/class signatures)
• Don’t comment what a line is doing. Instead, write your code, especially names for variables, constants, classes, functions, methods and so on, so that they produce talking code that needs no comments. Reserve the “what” style comments for where that just isn’t possible.
• Do comment the why. Tell the reader about your intentions and about big-picture issues. If an if-statement is hard to parse, write a corresponding if clause in plain English on top of it.
• In some cases, comment the “why not”, to keep maintenance programmers from falling in the same trap you already found.

In a language that has exceptions, there is no good reason to return bool here…

Legalisiert soll das ganze bis zur 12. Schwangerschaftswoche werden, und dann soll immer noch eine Beratung verpflichtend sein.

Frage: Wie lange dauert es im Normalfall, bis eine Frau überhaupt merkt, dass sie schwanger ist? Wie lange dauert es in ungewöhnlichen oder extremen Fällen? Wie lange muss man auf so einen Beratungstermin warten? Wie lange anschließend auf einen Termin für die Durchführung der Prozedur?

As someone who is in tech… not sure, either.

Also, almost all of that is written in C, which is a successor to B, which is a simplified version of the Basic Combined Programming Language. There was never an A.

Well passwordless.

Same thing in this context. But sure, an encrypted partition would work.

Dunno about ideal, but it should work.

It does have quite a bit of overhead, meaning it’s not the fastest out there, but as long as it’s fast enough to serve the media you need, that shouldn’t matter.

Also, you need to either mount it manually on the command line whenever you need it or be comfortable with leaving your SSH private key in your media server unencrypted. Since you are already concerned with needing to encrypt file share access even in the local network, the latter might not be a good option to you.

The good part about it is, as long as you can ssh from your media server to your NAS, this should just work with no additional setup needed.

Interesting. Though it does seem to to require your private key to be unencrypted…

Is sshfs an option? Unfortunately, I don’t think you can put that into /etc/fstab, though…

Das Formular vom Mieterbund kannst Du in ganz Deutschland benutzen. Da steht nur deswegen was von Berlin, weil der Mieterbund dort seinen Sitz hat.

Prinzipiell kannst Du jedes Formular benutzen, auf das sich Mieter und Vermieter einigen können. Normalerweise gibt Dir der Vermieter das Formular, das er/sie haben möchte.

Alle Zähler für Deine Wohnung, also Wasserzähler, Gaszähler, und Stromzähler, haben eine Zählernummer, die vorne auf dem Zähler aufgedruckt ist. Damit kann man den Zähler selbst identifizieren. Das ist nicht der Zählerstand! Der Zählerstand ist die Zahl, die sich bewegt, wenn Du etwas verbrauchst.

Den Anbieter für Strom und Gas kannst Du in der Regel selber wählen, den für Wasser aber nicht. Das geht im Internet, zum Beispiel auf http://check24.de. Der Anbieter, den Du Dir da aussuchst, kündigt dann selber Deinen alten Vertrag beim alten Anbieter. Wenn Du in eine Wohnung neu einziehst, musst Du Dich für Strom bei einem dieser Anbieter anmelden. Wenn Du Gas in der Wohnung hast, dann auch für Gas. Der örtliche Grundversorger, also die Stadtwerke, werden Dich aber erst mal weiter versorgen. Es sei denn Du zahlst lange Deine Rechnung nicht, dann hast Du irgendwann keinen Strom mehr.

Wait, they managed to forge Let’s Encrypt certificates? While it explains the attack on TLS (though technically not https as originally claimed, not that it makes much of a difference), that’s even worse…

Really? That’s a rather big claim, and would change a lot for me if true. Do you have anything by the way of a source?

Also, how do you MITM https traffic without one of the parties just handing you their keys?

In your case, instead of getting a dedicated server and putting proxmox on it, I would check if it might not be cheaper to just get individual virtual servers directly.

Other than that, sure, I have been a customer for many years now, and I have always been a fan of Hetzner’s price to quality ratio.

I’ve looked at Peertube, Dtube and Odyssee, but frankly, I don’t like them because there is some questionable content on those sites.

While I can understand that to a degree, keep in mind:

Any true alternative to the big sites, especially if they censor less, will always first attract the fringe and those who would get themselves banned on the big platforms. Even if it was for good reasons. These days, that seems to mean religious nutjobs and right-wing conspiracy theorists.

Oha. Das klingt ziemlich dramatisch, was da abläuft. Kennt jemand eine gute Alternative zu fahrrad.de, die nicht zu dem selben Konglomerat gehört?
