I considered voting for them, but I didn’t.
The reason is because there are other parties with comprehensive plans for digitalisation / IT stuff PLUS lots of other plans for healthcare, economy, infrastructure, etc.
Pirate party seems like a party focused on IT stuff only, whereas I also care about other topics, such as international trains, subsidizing healthcare, improving education and lots of other things.
(I voted for Volt Nederland BTW)
What about the rebel path from the CP77 OST?
Slightly offtopic:
When I go to the source in my browser, I see that this toot has been boosted roughly 800 times and roughly 1400 favorites.
However, when I go to this toot via my Mastodon app, I’m seeing 256 boosts and 1 favourite.
Why is this different in my app vs the fosstodon link to the toot?
Hmmm… Maybe it’s to prevent scripts from downloading / ripping content off their platform? That’s the only theory I can come up with. Although if it’s true, they don’t do a very good job at it, considering I’ve seen plenty of WebDL-1080p Netflix exclusive content on torrenting platforms.
Lmao, why do you even need to verify your humanity?
I use it to manage my documents, backup my photos from my phone to my server and access all my files from any other device. Basically Nextcloud is my replacement for OneDrive.
Additionally, I have used it in the past to collaborate on various group projects which require documents. For example, I had to make a presentation with some other people and I could create a PowerPoint in Nextcloud, send a share link to others and then we could edit the PowerPoint in realtime with Nextcloud + Collabora, which is pretty cool. It’s the only FOSS alternative (at least as far as I’m aware of) that can compete with Microsoft 365 / Google Workspaces.
Honestly, I’m not really excited about the past couple of major Nextcloud releases.
Mainly because there’s still one big issue for small-scale Nextcloud servers: performance.
Mainly the web UI is still too slow for me to properly use, which is why I don’t use it at all (unless I have to update an app).
It’s a bit disappointing that they’re mainly focused on the large enterprise customers instead of small hobbyists like me, but it’s still understandable; after all, their income is mainly from the enterprise customers, not from selfhosters.
I also don’t really like how they’ve jumped on the AI hypetrain instead of improving performance. But once again, I guess this generates more income for them than focusing on other things like improving performance.
Depends.
If there are no external volumes and the container is in its own network without any other containers, then any malware in the container shouldn’t be able to reach / affect the host server, because it’s isolated.
Docker is a container manager, but that doesn’t say anything if you don’t know what containers are.
Containers are basically isolated apps. For example, take something like Nextcloud. Nextcloud can run in a Docker container, which means that it runs in an isolated environment completely separated from the user’s system. If Nextcloud breaks, the user’s server won’t be affected at all, because it’s running isolated.
Why is this useful? Well, it’s useful because dependencies and such automatically update. Nextcloud for example, is dependent on PHP and if you install Nextcloud directly on your server, you’ll need to ensure that PHP 8 has been installed and set up properly. If PHP (or the required PHP extensions) aren’t properly installed, Nextcloud won’t work. Or, maybe if there’s a Nextcloud update that requires a new version of PHP (PHP 9 or 10 in the future), you’ll have to manually update PHP to the newer version.
All that dependency management is completely gone with containers. The container itself automatically installs and sets up a proper environment for the app that’s running. So in the case of Nextcloud, the PHP binaries, extensions, and all the other stuff is all automatically included without the developer having to do anything at all. Just run one command and your entire Nextcloud instance is automatically updated.
I’d first recommend that you think about what you need.
What do you need? Do you want a safe space to back up your photos & videos from your phone? Or maybe a way to stream your movies, series and/or music in a cheap way?
Once you figure out what you want to host, you can look into which program can fulfill your needs. Check out the awesome-selfhosted list for a HUGE amount of services you could host.
You could try making a symlink, so that there is a ‘file’ in the Nextcloud directory which points to the Immich gallery, although I’m not sure how good it truly works.
Does this also apply to linuxserver/nextcloud image? Because that’s what I’m using.
Uhh, I’m not sure if this fetishization of trans women is appreciated by trans women, but idk, because I’m not one of them. Just a heads up that not everyone may like this content.

Cyberpunk 2077 and Horizon Zero Dawn are both fantastic games with an emotional storyline.
My ELI5 version:
Basically, the ‘Web Environment Integrity’ proposal is a new technique that verifies whether a visitor of a website is actually a human or a bot.
Currently, there are captchas where you need to select all the crosswalks, cars, bicycles, etc. which checks whether you’re a bot, but this can sometimes be bypassed by the bots themselves.
This new ‘Web Environment Integrity’ thing goes as follows:
I hope this clears things up and if I misinterpreted the GitHub explainer, please correct me.
The reason people (rightfully) worry about this, is because it gives attesters A LOT of power. If Google decides they don’t like you, they won’t tell the website that you’re a human. Or maybe, if Google doesn’t like the website you’re trying to visit, they won’t even cooperate with attesting. Lots of things can go wrong here.
Well I mean, most of the liberal and classical economists generally try to predict the behaviors of consumers, which lead to assumptions such as “People will generally be selfish”.
So my first thought is: Download the entire file BEFORE watching it. This ensures that you won’t have to buffer while watching and it’ll run 100% smoothly.
Downloading files isn’t very difficult generally; just go to some (torrenting) website, copy the magnet or download the torrent and import it into your torrent client.
When you have your .mp4, .mkv, .whatever file, you can simply click on it and play it on your preferred media player (such as VLC). However, you may want to watch it on some other device… Easy solution (for TVs) is just connect your laptop to your TV with an HDMI cable, duplicate your screen and start watching.
But if you actually want to stream, you’ll have to tread into the self-hosting zone. Meaning that you run a media server that hosts all your content and your devices (whether it’s a TV, android phone, iPhone, whatever) can access and play the content from your server.
This is a very, very big topic that I won’t cover in a single comment. I will point you in the right direction and mention Jellyfin; Jellyfin is a free, open-source media server that you can set up to manage and stream your files with
