IIRC, Apple implemented the original spec for RCS too, so none of the Google features like e2e will even work.
I’m disabling that shit day 1, I don’t need my messages sent over Google servers - not even if they were encrypted.
I don’t even know why telecoms in Europe even bothered, and neither do they. (I asked the RCS lead at one of them, and they agreed it was kind of pointless with signal, whatsapp, …. existing)
IIRC MySql inherits that behaviour when running on windows (or at least older versions do)
That was a real fun time when switching OS
I’m curious - if you want to listen high quality audio, why not get an actual audio player for that? Surely the DAC in some random android phone can’t be that good?
Also, the 1TB version is really only meant so they are actually somewhat usable for recording proRes or taking pictures in RAW
.eu and your local tld are often quite a bit cheaper too!
Wireguard (which is what tailscale is built on) doesn’t even require you to open ports on both sides.
Set up wireguard on a vps first, where it is accessible, then set it up from within your network. It’ll traverse NAT and everything, and you don’t have to open a port on your network.
Tailscale is the exact same thing, just easier because it does everything for you (key generation, routing, …). Their service replaces your vps, up to you if you think that’s acceptable or not. IMHO, wireguard is worth learning at least. I eventually (partially) switched to tailscale because I’m lazy, and all services I host have authentication anyway, with vpn just being a second layer.
Maybe technically, but in reality there’s just very few “good” tablets when it comes to hardware. Samsung has a few, but the rest’s just plastic trash.
No proper hardware, no sales, no tablet android users, no android apps for tablets.
I don’t see how this would fix that.
Kubernetes yes, but minikube is kinda meh as a way to install it outside of development environments.
There’s so many better manageable ways like RKE/Rancher (which gives you the possibility to go k3s),Kubespray or even kubeadm.
All of those will result in a cluster that’s more suitable for running actual workloads.
Which is why we have HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript, supported by all major browsers.
Unless you’re doing something outrageously non-standard, there is no reason to block specific browsers.
I don’t think programming language is a good metric for security. I assume everything I host has issues, and then try to mitigate from there.
IMHO, a better approach is to vet the project beforehand, looking at whether it is still actively maintained. I usually use things like commits, issues, etc to try and gauge whether a piece of software is actively maintained so that when an issue arises, it can be fixed.
You can mitigate much of the risk by using some basic best practices, like isolating all apps from each other (using docker, for example), using a reverse proxy, tools like fail2ban or a web application firewall, using proper database permissions for each app, etc
What I also do is add another layer by making certain applications accessible only over vpn. That won’t work for some tools, obviously, but also reduces the risk for tools you are only using yourself.
I’ve set up several Kubernetes clusters in a professional setting (and work with it daily), but I still use straight docker for running my own stuff.
Using tools like Rancher it’s pretty much no effort to set it up, but the overhead is just not worth it if you’re not using the orchestration IMO.
I like them as well, they work well and are easy to set up with the built-in integration.
The only drawback I find is the need to use their cloud, and the low polling rate (5min I believe).
Not dealbreakers for me, but some things to be aware of.
No, they’re not, but Google won’t get them (unless, as you state, they use google’s messaging app) Less Google, more better, in my opinion.
MMS hasn’t been a thing at my provider for years now, so want to send me an image? Use Signal or whatsapp (begrudgingly). I already rarely receive or send SMS, so not enabling RCS isn’t a big loss for me, I don’t get added to Google’s statistics (which they are so very proud off), and I won’t really miss any of its features.
