- Comment on How the Grenfell fire in the UK exposed 'racial capitalism' 1 week ago:
I think the expression ‘no shit, Sherlock’, is a fitting desciption to the conclusion of that inquiry.
We all nothing’s going to happen to the landlord, it will be business as usual, nothing to see here.
- Comment on Google tests showing full recipes right in search results 5 weeks ago:
I’m sure Google will treat every recipe equal and not promote only sites/creators that offer kickbacks /s
- Comment on If a corporation were subject to normal human health risks, we would have a clean environment and trillions invested in fighting climate change. 1 month ago:
You can always dig a canal to bring flooding into the business district, think outside the box!
This is obviously a crude attempt at a joke and not real advice.
- Comment on Swedish church leaders seek to ban fathers giving the bride away 2 months ago:
No, I still believe the freedom of choice is the more important here. A couple should be free to chose a ceremony that they want, which the church can support or not. The church is a separate entity and like a corporation, they can set their own rules for what they allow or support, as long as it is within the legal framework of Sweden.
My second point is that the church could have had an internal discussion about this, but they (or more likely some indiviuals) have opted to make this internal debate into a political question, inflaming the topic to such a degree that even international media covers it.
- Comment on Swedish church leaders seek to ban fathers giving the bride away 2 months ago:
While I agree wholeheartedly with the church making internal policies, but bringing an internal conflict into international media, airing a view that seem rather sensationalistic is what I react to. Having an internal discussion, making a decision and then implement a policy would have been the proper way.
- Comment on Swedish church leaders seek to ban fathers giving the bride away 2 months ago:
While I agree that the act could be interpreted as an symbol of inequality, I really think personal choice should be the winner here.
- Comment on If you're thinking about something and reach a conclusion that's super outside the mainstream, you could be right, but also could mean you should reinspect your assumptions. 4 months ago:
I think its pretty healthy to always check your assumptions. Some things that are mainstream are actually pretty crazy, but taken as normal because we’re used to them. For instance, GDP is a pretty crazy way to measure economic health.
- Comment on What tool do you use to display your self-hosting infrastructure 4 months ago:
I used to use ansible and helm, but it is overkill for my case. Today I basically use a combo of markdown and bash scripts, the combination of them allows me to run the scripts straight from my IDE.
- Comment on The EU slaps additional tariffs on Chinese EV imports 5 months ago:
What a joke. Let’s save EU jobs for the coming 12 months, jack up the prices of EVs and while people die of heatstroke all over the world. /s
- Comment on Are the people who read terms and conditions the same people who pre-heat their ovens? 🤔 6 months ago:
I pre-heat and I read tos;dr for laughs and giggles of what they’re trying to force me to agree to.
- Comment on European police chiefs call for end-to-end encryption roll out to include public protection measures 6 months ago:
What a complete load of horse shit. Show me crime statistics that clearly show that mass scanning of messages was the only way to detect a felony or reach a verdict of guilty.

There are several things you can and should do to harden your server, many of them can be found here.

Okay it really is time to invent a scramble suit
- Comment on CVS, Rite Aid, Walgreens hand out medical records to cops without warrants 11 months ago:
I might be pretty stupid, but why would police even want medical information? In what way are medical records a help in any police duty?
- Comment on Bringing the Unix Philosophy to the 21st Century 11 months ago:
Not to piss on anyones parade here, but grepping something out of a json structure is one of the most asked questions for jq as well. Of course json is nice, but if the goal is to simplify data extraction, I’m not sure much will be gained by this.
As far as reducing the toolchain necessary to extract the same data, this is a welcome addition.

That whole page feels like an ad for umatrix

- Comment on Should I worry about "legitimate interest" tracking cookies? 1 year ago:
Yes, it is a choice. I choose to delete cookies because it is the technique most websites use. Tracking plugins, canvas, webrtc, etc are harder to defend against and if they are all deployed by a tracking site, it is almost impossible to not be unique.
- Comment on Should I worry about "legitimate interest" tracking cookies? 1 year ago:
Personally I don’t trust cookie policies at all, I use plugins that will bypass cookie banners and then auto delete cookies 20 seconds later.
- Comment on Australia state swings from bush fires to flash floods in 24 hours 1 year ago:
The answer is obviously to put more co2 in the air /s

Don’t worry, some asshole will patent it and charge per bottle.

Jesus that thing just remind me of Lara Croft’s boobs in the first tombraider game.
- Comment on Is America Really That Bad? 1 year ago:
Not American, but I imagine that news reporting uses loaded terms and partly drives the division between republicans and democrats. I assume that in reality most people are levelheaded people that don’t hate or fear their neighbors.

Yay cable TV is back
- Comment on Nearly two-fifths of robberies in London last year were for mobile phones 1 year ago:
Not an expert in any way, but I would assume it is similar to having physical access to a computer. You would not be able to get into the existing device or retrieve data, but if you have stolen it and just to use the device, there are numerous tools to allow side loading of new blobs, that will bypass any restrictions.
- Comment on Xdebug with PHP is a lifesaver 1 year ago:
Just wait until you learn that you can debug sql queries the same way in most rdbms admin tools.
- Comment on Is it possible to set up 2FA on my self-hosted services? 1 year ago:
You could look into apps like authelia, keycloak, authentic, etc.
