I made a 100GB alt account and uploaded 25GB of files through an encrypted mount. We’ll see what happens when I cancel it tomorrow

Yup I know I am the product. That’s why we are encrypting everything with AES256 before upload using rclone’s crypt remote

I just don’t trust any cloud provider tbh. Performance hit from AES256 is very insignificant and it provides solid privacy regardless of provider. Might as well get the cheap one

Possibility of Google keeping API access up after cancellation is why I asked this question. To learn what happens when to rclone Google drive mount after an expiration

Well, my VPS is used mainly by my friends for Minecraft servers, collaboration, file sharing, streaming and pretty much everything cloud related

Most of them live in Istanbul and my VPS provider is one of the most reliable and affordable providers located in Istanbul.

Unfortunately, Hertzner doesn’t work for me because their prices are astronomical for me compared to Google’s regional pricing for Turkey (40TL/mo = 1.1USD/mo for 2TB)

I just wanna exploit the service as much as possible since I just don’t rely on them. Electricity prices are too high for homelab but maybe I could set up a solar powered server if I save a little (I’m a student, I don’t have much money, but I like the hobby)

I’ll probably try accessing cancelled drive account with rclone and find out if it’s possible

now im really curious about that xxx app…

For this to happen, everyone using the internet should know HTML or there has to be a easy to use, MS Word-like web designer. And there should also be easy to use, free web hosting providers (neocities exists).

Owning a website as a non-techie should be normalized and be portrayed as “cool”

It is dockerized but that doesn’t really matter since the DB which is probably one of the most private things on your server is also stored in the container. So a hacker who got into the container can steal your timelinize DB

Your best bet is running this LAN-only but that kind of destroys the whole point of it. This thing should never be connected to the internet

Did you read the article I linked? They use RAID to create a virtual disk (similar to a loop device in this context)

Virt manager for qemu. I use docker and distrobox for Linux distros

I recently managed to use my windows partition (for dual boot) as a disk for a qemu. I don’t use it but really cool trick anyways. Tutorial here

Also it’s not very healthy for windows since it is not designed for constant hardware changes. But idc all my apps are installed on D: so I can just reinstall it without thinking about it much

The beauty of Unix philosophy

A program does one thing, and it does it well

That’s the kind of innovation I expect from the Linux community

Ikea email. You get the parts and assemble it yourself

Now imagine designing a 65 bit computer. The bus, registers, alu…

You’ll probably waste a lotta chips since most of them are designed for working with powers of 2

Tldr. Really fancy document scanner which automatically categorizes documents for you (incl. IDs, Passports, Library Cards etc.)

I thought it was a RFID and NFC scanner which would let you save stuff like transportation cards to your phone. That would be a killer feature but probably impossible due to how these card are designed

Right? I tried to be as less offensive as possible but it’s really impossible. Anyways im deleting the post

How did you get a single letter domain? I thought all single letters were reserved by ICANN in 1993. Did you buy it before that happened?
