Really? I must not have much to say ;)

Read the debian release docs about the major upgrade when that time comes. They sometime contain important adaptations to make your upgraded install similar to a fresh one.

Windows need a regular reinstall. Not so much on linux.
My daily driver at work is the same install from 2000. I was so impressed with debians abillity to do a major upgrade, that it kind of became a game, to see how long i could upgrade it. A fresh install and copy over /home would have been more sane ;) Also with lvm you can migrate your running install to a new os drive while working. So hardware swap is a 5 min process. Boot new hw on old disk, with usb adapter. pvmove the install to the new drive. Install grub.

I do fresh installs on many other machines tho. My daily driver at home and the emergency laptop is installed when they are aquired, and upgraded as long as the hardware functions.

Sls-> redhat -> debian (potato) around year 2000 ish. Been running debian since.

Firefox’s total cookie protrction is excelent. Basically cookies are sandboxed into site spesific boxes. So ie a facebook cookie can not be read by the favcebook script on another site. Only on the site that set the original cookie.

Just based on the names. But I assume things like element call is implementable by other clients as well.

Afaik there is a docker compose as well. It is probably all of the above. Alignment with elements seems like it just by the name. And easier setupbif you want all the bells and whistles you can add onto matrix.
For some that might be a bad thingnif it exclude some clients. While other wsnt the features.

Have you looked into https://element.io/en/server-suite/community ?

I run my own server for friends and family. And there are more abd more optional addons that may have made that server suite a more sane place to start when selfhosting. I have not evaluated it tho, but thought you should know about it.

Hanlons razor… probably just lots and lots of peaple + stupidity. But it could very well be both…

Now that is shocking to hear. You do not have to deal with the whims of the general public. One would imagine anything would be better.

Wtf! A teachers union was still on X ??

This is the absolute great thing about debian. The transparency. There is drama everywhere, but with debian it is all out in the open. Not something you have the read between the lines from a pr story.

Debian is fucking great!

Did we read the same article? Where was the ai-only part?

That is not the vendor lock in that they crave.

As long as there is a easy way to disable it. And clearly communicated what they are doing. I do not begrudge mozilla trying to remain competitive with mainstream.

Congratulations! I hope you never read this!

And most importantly, there is not an algorithmic feed. With a singular purpose to keep you hooked as long as possible.

I assume the hoster would know the age of his friends? Or is the law more spesific in how the verification must happen.

Steam does not have to only accept steampay. Tho? You fear visa and mastercard will blaclist steam?

You are correct that it would not instantly become unusable. But when all editors with integrity have ceased to contribute in frustration, wikipedia would eventually become stale, or very unreliable.

Also there is nothing stopping a person from using an llm to summarize an article for them. And the added benefit to that is that the energy and reasources used for that would be only used on the people that wanted to, not on evey single page view. I would assume the enegy consumption on that, would be significant.
