But it does. If the universe was deterministic, choice would be impossible because all outcomes would be predetermined.
Quantum randomness may not directly provide free will but it does exclude determinism, which would make free will impossible.
I’m mostly with you except for the determinism. Not only do we KNOW that the universe is fundamentally probabilistic and not deterministic, all our technology works extremely hard to combat random errors because small electronics are absolutely not deterministic, they are just engineered to have a low enough randomness so we can counteract it.
How old are you?
Are you using zfs?
But it’s a gigantic waste of energy and time when you could just download a 2mb package and be done with it.
That’s why you do regular restore tests on separate systems. That should be standard procedure for any company. A fully encrypted disk should be noticable immediately.
If your backups are online and not in a warehouse, you are doing it wrong. Even my own personal backups are on disconnected disks. What a bunch of amateurs.
You can’t trust any full disk encryption without it because only a TPM can verify that your bootloader and initrd are not compromised.
Because he has a lot of nerdy friends that use signal? Same reason anyone else would choose one messenger over another i’d guess.
Not much difference because both signal and WhatsApp use the same protocol and encryption.
I get what you mean but please read the study: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s41347-023-00304-7
They themselves note that the very small sample size would be an issue. They say they would need 78 people for even remotely confident results, then they initially targeted 74 people, of which 20 dropped out.
Let me be clear that I too want to believe that social networks are bad for people, but studies like this one do very very little to provide any meaningful data to base my opinion on.
Sample size, 50 students. Lol nothing to see here. This has no value whatsoever.
What’s the problem with that script? That’s such a basic use case and not very hard to do at all in systemd.
Where do you struggle with it? Can we maybe help with something?
Replace Debian apt sources with Ubuntu ones, do system upgrade and install the Ubuntu-Desktop package, now you have Ubuntu.
It’s been a while since I have done this, but it’s totally possible.
We did this transition from Ubuntu to Debian at Work with thousands of workstations.
It requires a bit of time and testing but it’s possible.
For a handful of servers, try zabbix. Every distribution has a packaged zabbix agent. It has everything: web ui, a way to Auto discover things with a bit of setup, nice graphs, alerting, LDAP User Management if you need it, a way to define per person/group alerting/notification schedules. And the community is big enough that many common services (fail2ban/postfix/MySQL/etc.) have premade custom monitoring scripts. Adding your own metrics is also very easy.
I don’t quite agree because children will also readily make other children or trees or stones or the sky their enemy if they feel like it. And they will go out of their way to recruit other people to fight against said perceived enemies.
I want it to continuously adapt to my ever changing interests. That’s one of the major features for me.
Because I get a non-toxic personalized YouTube feed that does not suck…
Honestly by far the best subscription I have.
13€/month to never see ads on any device, give a lot more money to creators and free access to YouTube music so I don’t need Spotify anymore. It’s amazing how much you get for comparatively little money.
Pretty much every alerting system I know also has a filter option to only apply automated discovery rules to certain filesystem types.
But yes, most don’t first squashfs or mounted read-only snapshots by default and it sucks.
