Also see stats from:

• Lemmy.ca - https://lemmy.ca/post/15125231

Which are pretty similar.

Pretty sure that's a plus subscription for if you want to support them. It gives you hourly map updates and weather and other stuff hardly anyone needs. But you can use the app fine without it.

I still prefer Organic Maps though.

If you have an original Framework (from memory, 11th gen intel 13 inch), there were hardware issues that I don't thing could be resolved via software updates. I believe they worked in them for the intel 12th gen and later.

I run a fedora derivative on an original framework, and I used a command to disable sleep and go to a deeper state (hibernate maybe?) so it doesn't lose battery while asleep. And if you take out your HDMI, display port, etc cards and just use USB (or none) that resolves another power drain issue.

But basically, it's usable but not perfect. I'm waiting to see if there's another gen of AMD card coming then might update my mainboard.

I dunno, I like it as a laptop but I'm also seldom far from a charger.

It seems the RSA-155 (512 bit) encryption commonly used in the 90s was broken in 1999, no quantum needed (due to it being based on primes).

Though from what I can search up, reddit users from 10 years ago were confident a 128 bit modern algorithm (e.g. AES) would never be able to be brute forced, even by quantum computers.

I dunno, sometimes I wonder if not everyone on the internet is an expert.

But isn't the point that we just need to stay ahead of it. Surely encryption used in the 90s could be broken by a quantum computer today?

I think you'll find people willing to help if you jump into the Lemmy Matrix chat for admins. You should find it in the Lemmy Matrix space: https://matrix.to/#/#lemmy-space:matrix.org

The admin support general chat is probably a good place.

There are Lemmy.world admins around but also plenty of admins of instances of all sizes.

I get how it's possible, but this is Google. Surely they have decades of experience at keeping a website up no matter what happens!

But how does this happen? Surely Google has the ability to make highly available systems that are resistant to power going out at one of the three locations (as per the article).

Possibly related to the whole mental load thing: https://english.emmaclit.com/2017/05/20/you-shouldve-asked/

When you have two jobs you don't really want a third.

It's hard to know overall for Lemmy, but I know that both Lemmy.ca and Lemmy.nz have surveyed their members.

https://lemmy.ca/post/15125231 https://lemmy.nz/post/12001861

Both were around 87% men, where as this selfhosting one is like 96% men.

I would guess it's explained by society. Women are less likely to be in STEM which seems to almost be a prerequisite for Lemmy and possibly self-hosting, and of those women in STEM, and ( despite what you might think about your own house) there is still a societal expectation of them running the household and doing most of the household chores, even when they work full time. A third job, selfhosting, may be too much.

Damn, and I thought the gender ratio on Lemmy was bad.

I can see both angles of this. Especially since the original disclosure didn't have the full detail of how it could be exploited to access company systems, and they (the writeup author) never disclosed that update.

You can see how a large company (Zendesk) could miss this in the multitude of people trying to claim bug bounties. I fully believe that had they understood the issue they should have fixed it, since it's within their power and basically a service to their clients. But I can understand how the limited detail in the original disclosure demonstrated a much lower level risk than the end exploit that was never reported.
