Niko (Martin) :heart_ace:Just a random guy.
Some info about me: I like videogames, I like to contribute on Wikimedia and OSM, I love Arch and Alpine, I'm panroace(?).
On here I'll repost mainly in english, but sometimes some italian stuff might slip through, in both cases I try my best to boost the things just once, and with alt text when needed.

Sacrifices must be made, we do what we must because we can.
Everything is fine, know you are loved.
I'll live for those who come after.
Will never forget Niko.

Bwee the Fluffdragon πI am curious...
I know I have a lot of followers who are blind, but I'd like to see how many of you are out there that this post will reach!
Including some additional demographics for interest's sake.
Please respond and boost if you don't mind!

Scott JensonBy reframing this as "site stats" and not user stats, I hope we can move forward. If there are zero stats "of any kind" about the user collected, maybe we could do this without freaking out?
If there are some hidden user stats collected, then we should remove them. The point is to figure out how to do this safely, not assume it can never be done.

Niko (Martin) :heart_ace:I have to admire this writeup for the sheer deranged glory of remotely unlocking your desktop's encrypted root drive on boot by setting up Tailscale and a very limited SSH server in your initrd, so you can SSH in to enter the unlock password. And of course you give your initrd a separate and limited Tailscale identity and its own set of SSH host keys.

Everyone who ever plans to be teaching and is forced to make their students take exams (especially in the academic environment but also outside) should read this.
There is SO much to learn and think about from this post, not just about chatbots but so much more.

Micro SF/F by O. Westin"Is it true you live backwards in time?" the queen asked.
"Not yet, but it will be," Merlin replied. "And then, I will have."
"You speak in riddles. But you have seen the future? What will it bring?"
"Fanfic."
"Is that a spell? What does it do?"
"It will give you Lancelot."
"What is that?"
