  You seem to imply you also want to selfhost some email service. But that’s sadly one of the few things that will always be better at a trusted third party email provider.

  Besides that it seems the most important thing you want is pure data storage, and that kind of selfhosting is not hard. In many cases one would not even consider it as part of “selfhosting” as it can be as simple as a local NAS or external HDD.

  So my question is what do you actually want to accomplish? Because I think for a lot of your concerns you don’t even need to go and host something.

  Besides some countries, people that had their account flagged as possible underage also need to verify themselves.

  I know a French guy that joked about being 12 in a chat, got reported by a troll that got his account locked, and had to send his ID to unlock it.

  I was look into both of these and it really looked like the fork was supposed to be the continuation of the original one. So this news doesn’t come as a surprise.

  That depends. My “filter bubble” on Lemmy is completely by my own making and I’m fully aware I do not receive some other perspectives.

  On social media the filter bubble is invisible and alters your view on reality without your knowledge.

  Well that’s kind of always the case.

  If you don’t pay your taxes you lose some of your rights, in almost any country.

  If UAC bypasses weren’t left unpatched I would have kept my own one so I could reign chaos as soon as Microsoft drops it.

  You know what, I’m keeping it anyways, so I can prove an argument by telling you about it.

  I’m sure many malware developers have tons of exploits ready for when support is dropped.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Should you copy a person's accent when pronouncing their name?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I guess it makes the most sense to do what feels natural. In my case that’s pronouncing the name in the language I’m speaking at that moment.

  Good. I’ve been losing customers since they have been able to test my product. Now I can safely lace my products with fentanyl again.

  There are much more steps than just training. Even after training you still have slower boot speeds.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨DDR4 costs soar as manufacturers pull the plug — panic buying and stockpiling impact DDR4 spot pricing as supply dwindles⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  A good reason for staying with DDR4 at this point in time is if you need faster boot times. DDR5 makes computers boot slower because it’s less stable and needs more work during POST to get stable.

  In many cases it’s not a requirement though, and the speed improvements of DDR5 after boot outweigh the extra boot time.

  You can’t block porn completely without blocking VPNs. If you connect to a VPN that’s all they can see. They can not see what you use the VPN for.

  You’re right, but that also means your service can get blocked in said country. And that’s what they don’t want, so they’re trying to fight it from home.

  For developers in similar situations, where the corporate overlords make your life miserable; use dead man’s triggers Instead of a simple killswitch: manually start handling certificates, introduce memory leaks that you can easily clear, have excessive disk filling logs that you can daily clear, and all kinds of other stuff that is a perpetual dumpster fire that you extinguish as part of your job. Oh, and don’t forget to forget commenting and documenting. The next developer should instantly learn the pressure they have been putting on you.

  Belgium. For the Dutch speaking part there’s VDAB, which handles the path from unemployment to employment. They are the ones that help you get a job, which is a requirement for unemployment benefits, so they are quite active. They currently have 246 different types of jobs listed that need more people. This list is actively referenced to by schools, especially on the degrees that lead to a job in this list, as well as all the school counselors that help you figure out what you want. There’s also many jobs in the list that do not require a degree or course, often for less wanted jobs that are harder to find people for.
