I work in german FinTech too and am very familiar with this game. Forcing developers to do 2FA for "every keystroke" while running ancient software on historic OS doesn't make much sense to me.

Thx a lot! I've setup a Violentmonkey script to automatically redirect me to r.naa.gg:

    // ==UserScript==
    // @name        reddit
    // @match       *://www.reddit.com/*
    // ==/UserScript==

    window.location.host='r.naa.gg';

Same here. I setup a few Macs for my family to use LDAP and NFS. Gave up after some time due to Apple changing things at will.

> a reasonable level of security

Whould you recommend using a Pixel 6a in 2026 even though it has no hardware memory tagging (MTE)?

The "ML" here seems to stand for "Machine Learning" (not "Meta Language" as in SML or OCaml).

Is there a .dmg for macOS outside of the App Store? (I'm trying to avoid the App Store as much as I can).

Is it possible to run this locally on Apple aarch64?

(Sorry, I'm probably one of the few HN users left that don't have much experience with AI).

Website seems to require JS to display anything at all.

I can tell you that Deutsche Telekom has much much more aggressive sales reps than 1&1. (I've been with GMX/1&1 for ~15 years and with DT for ~2 years).

DT called me on phone over and over again, so much that I had to block them on my FritzBox. Several times they even knocked at my door.

Another Althttpd user here. Being able to write a "microservice" just by making a file executable is awesome.
