Well "a" (aka 1) freezer malfunctionning will let a few items spoil. Hundreds of connected appliances nation wide, that's a different story.

They had been able to manage just fine for several decades before internet of shits happened.

Fear not for them though, they'll go whine under the government's noze and get a refund. So much for the liberalism they praise when everything is fine for them.

Here is how I did it :

Get a list of installed packages originating from AUR using 'yay' :

  yay -Qam > packages_aur.last
Get list from
https://md.archlinux.org/s/SxbqukK6IA# :

  curl https://md.archlinux.org/s/SxbqukK6IA/download > compromised.txt
then :

  grep -wFf compromised.txt packages_aur.last
should spit out the packages that are in both files, hence were compromised at some point, I guess.

Does this mean that each software you run is now the size of a windows install + sw or is it a single container that runs all your softwares ?

Well yes, finally, optimizing instead of throwing silicon, water and electricity at it until it works. Thats the way.

"lleu.site" might not be the clearest in regards to what the service offers. It reads too nerd. Something like "easyweb.site" or "yourown.site" might better describe it.

Spot on :

> Someone once said that “AI feels amazing when it’s talking about a subject you know nothing about, but is laughably wrong when you do”.

> Someone else also said “I want AI to do my laundry so I can make Art, not make my Art so I can do laundry”.

Well of course a DSLR will be better than a phone camera for most things, since you can control more features. That's also the point of OpenCamera; get as much controls as you can back, compared to the stock app that might be lacking. It wont do miracles if your phone camera is not good to begin with.

I've found OpenCam to be useful because of the various optional features ( onionskin, levelmeter, locking settings ). You can also set the bitrate/size/duration of videos, etc. Lots of useful stuff.

Well I still think it's something to worry about before you end in front of a "Your account has been suspended" notice. How can you be sure someone has the whole dataset locally backed up ? Plus, you still have to reconfigure the workflows and stuff like that. Not to mention that sometime, project's websites are also hosted on github, so that's something else you have to rebuild.

And also, this means devs/contributors have to give their data to MS.

Since the whole point of the project is sovereignty, it should have started with setting up their own gitea/gitlab/etc. instances and domains.

And yet, the project is hosted on MS github... So much for sovereignty :facepalm

So what happens to the 500,000+ users when Trump tells MS to nuke the repo/infra ?
