I've taken my stack of old laptops and created a microk8s cluster out of them for the purpose of self-hosting random stuff.

Agreed, this is a problem that we will solve through scientific innovation in power generation (nuclear) and carbon sequestration. The solutions that fall in the emotional domain often involve legislation and a reduction in quality of life.

Industrial control systems are experiencing the growing pains of letting go of older technology that was designed prior to security being much of a concern.

ICS networks are often designed to be 'air gapped'. All too often the air gap is broken via a vpn into the network so that someone can RDP to a windows scada machine (that doesn't receive updates because it can't reach the internet itself).

How does this work?

Confidential...as in only you, the recipients, Google, the NSA, and other intelligence agencies the NSA shares information with can read these emails.

I understand the sentiment. I certainly have my own bouts of intense paranoia related to security and the privacy of my personal stuff. It can become unhealthy. However, I think as long as the majority are complicit with email providers that don't offer end-to-end encryption, we may fall deeper into the clutches of government surveillance, targeted advertising, and other practices that IMO are an overall toxic influence on humanity. I don't practice what I preach at the moment but hopefully the loss of convenience is not too significant as I make the switch.

Ah, I guess the point I'm missing is that with a 'serverless' setup, the cloud provider must have access to your private key? Unless you use some sort of key server setup (what they call Keyless SSL)

> "has never turned over their SSL keys or customers’ SSL keys to anyone;"

How would they be able to give up customers' SSL keys?

I have an XPS 15 9550 as well and primarily use ubuntu. I feel your pain on the failure to hibernate/heating up in a bag. Dell seems to have had plenty of issues with buggy BIOS and motherboards on this laptop. Last week mine became afflicted with the notorious XPS issue of powering itself on automatically immediately after shutdown (from windows or ubuntu) and will only respond to the power button being pushed if the charger is plugged in. I've replaced the battery and the CMOS battery in an unsuccessful attempt to solve the problem. Dell support said I could pay $70 to send in my laptop to get it diagnosed and then quote me an exorbitant price to replace the MOBO; all while being without a laptop for god knows how long... no thanks!

I resurrected a MacBook Air from 2013 and have been running Ubuntu for a week now. It's very refreshing to be on stable hardware even if it's not a powerhouse.

Rockstar to push an update and make this cheat irrelevant?
