RCS is a carrier protocol, like SMS

In terms of map data, as far as I know there's pretty much only OSM, Google Maps and Apple Maps (which is getting a beta browser version)*.

OSM map data is usually excellent, search can be very hit or miss though. You might want to try some of the apps that use OSM data like Organic Maps to see if you get better search results using that. Personally I use both Apple Maps and Organic Maps.

* I also know of Mapquest but it's lacking a lot of POIs and even ways from what I can see, at least in the two cities I've checked.

This looks interesting too, maybe a bit overkill for what I’m looking for though. I’ll take a look, thanks!

Oh nice, I wasn't aware there were RSS feeds for git repositories! Makes sense though. I'll look into this.

There don't have to be, it would be completely fine just filtering commits by author email. Or maybe even signing key.

Cleaner how? Systemd services can already provide basically all of the isolation features you could want if that's what you're talking about. It's got namespaces, chroot+bind mounts, per-service dynamically allocated users, syscall filter, capability filter, and so on.

Docker adds a lot of for most uses unnecessary complexity (a huge part of which being the networking). This also sometimes causes problems, for example it messes with netfilter tables which works fine most of the time but can actually do unwanted things like IIRC open ports you didn't expect to be open because you didn't open them in your firewall. There's also how if you use prebuilt images (which you probably do) you're at the mercy of everyone whose containers you're using to provide security updates in time.

Of course there's cases where you actually want something like docker (multi-machine orchestration, spinning up multiple of the same container dynamically depending on load, running people's arbitrary build environments like in GitHub Actions are a few examples) but a lot of times when people are pushing it it really seems like cargo cult mentality.

I have a paper for uni due end of this month that I'm procrastinating working on. Not fun because I have low motivation to do it, but otherwise I'm doing fine.

If only it was also available on Linux. I really like using it on my Mac.

Borg is great and I use it myself but afaik there is no Windows version and there is only remote support over SSH, not HTTPS.

I mean sure, but there's also a screenshot in the article of him saying he's against DMCA takedowns specifically

Current copyright law in general goes absurdly far beyond protecting the original creator

Overzealous DMCA is a plague on humanity

Do be careful, the like 20–50€ USB webcams that you can usually find are absolute dogshit IME and probably blown away by any webcam on a good recent laptop (the one I have certainly is by the one on my MacBook and IIRC the laptop I had before also had a better camera). Personally I wouldn't trust any of the ones I can see listed on amazon right now. A lot of times they have horrible autofocus, brightness adjustment, noise and so on even if the theoretical image resolution is advertised as 1080p for example. (Of course, you can always send it back but still.)

If you want actually good quality, get a real video camera that you can connect to a computer, or if possible use your phone back camera if it's good enough (I know Macs can use the iPhone camera as a built in thing, not sure about other combinations of phone/computer).
