I think he should just retire for real (from rsync) and enjoy the time, who would take all the negativity and keep going for a volunteer project like rsync.
And this has nothing to do with AI. It seems to me that a significant amount of people in IT disconnected from reality.
Go throw a couple potatoes in the ground and see them grow or whatever. Your opinion most likely wont matter nor make any difference.
You likely restored a compromised backup because the backdoor(s) were already laying there. Or you restored to a theme/plugin with a vulnerability and had it quickly exploited again.
There is some lessons to be learned from your way of trying to fix it. Suggesting not to use a software that is in its core pretty stable and safe, is not one of them.
LibreOffice, VeraCrypt, WireGuard. 2 questions:
Whats next?
Is that a pattern?
Google some time ago deleted all my 13 years of location history while attempting to migrate it to local storage on users phones. I used it to keep track of business expenses for tax and had to collect the data someway else. Plus lost a lot of places i had kept track of in foreign countries visited. Desaster that showed I should not rely on them. Made that mistake there while self hosting and self backuping the whole other stuff. Oh well.
You inherited, its your choice. Thats alright.
But you basically ripped out a partial root grounding your family, your kids, their kids. Sometimes these roots give strength in difficult times. Thats just my opinion and self-observation.
Whats done is done. But I could not imagine myself doing that.
10 is a lot given the circumstances. From which country did they originate?
That is actually pretty cool. I started doing that with the photo collections of family members, but only to add explanations to the metadata of the pictures. I might reconsider that approach now.
That is pretty cool, I would not have the time, creativity and dedication to start something like that. Wanted to donate a nice comment. Best regards
I ran ejabberd, later prosody for a while. Eventually I stopped because the contacts went away and it was just not easy enough to set up for ordinary people.
Sad because the idea of running a federated chat service for your family and them having all their contacts there, is great from a data ownership point of view.
Went back to use a mix of WhatsApp, Telegram, Signal and Messenger because apparently there is always some people not wanting to use one or the other service, or only using one of them.

Wondering: Is there a good tool for centralized ACME cert management when one runs a large infrastructure, highly available, multi location where it makes little sense to run the ACME client directly on each instance or location?
This is crazy, it happened to the SoGO webmailer, standalone or bundled with the mailcow: dockerized stack as well. They implemented a slight workaround where URLs are being encrypted to avoid pattern detection to flag it as "deceiving".
There is no responses from Google about this. I had my instance flagged 3 times on 2 different domains including all subdomains, displaying a nice red banner on a representative business website. Cool stuff!
The thing is called freedom. There was a time on the internet where people shared media not to make any profit, but to supply those who could not afford them. There was a time in my life where I earned 215€ per month. Later 343€. There was nothing left for any entertainment after expenses. No console, no games, no movies and no music. These times are over, plus there is affordable streaming services, but I still know and understand the spirit.
Being the parent of a child in the boys age, this was incredibly hard to read. I started yesterday, stopped half way through, could not sleep at first, woke up in the morning to finish the story. To me, as a non-native english speaker, the story is very well written to paint an extensive picture of the events unfolding as well of the environment, which made it much more frightening.
Good luck finding them still. If they are not on archive.org, you are out of luck. And if that ceases to exist, even more.
Man, please share a tutorial
TF2 was a great game and a halloween tradition for me and some friends. Unfortunately it became public-unplayable with all the bots going on and around.
Whats going on with the special snowflakes trying to get attention? First the WordPress-guy, now this one. Maybe we should all acknowledge that we are much less important than we would like to. And thats OK.
The sad but funny part of this is: If I sent this to my computer science class of 12-13 year olds, 50% would not even get the joke and just go and play it like their usual brainrot cookie clicker.
Having been in the field for some time and having some contacts, I must say: 100% of the companies where I get some insights are currently either already building alternatives or reviewing their options with a strong intention to leave VMware behind. And in many cases this is quite a huge task, but certainly doable with the required momentum.
My question is: How did Scott Helme end up with a password hash that features his own name?

I kid you not, WordPress.org does not support IPv6 to fetch plugins, themes etc.
https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3090
"The WordPress.org systems team DO have IPv6 plans, but at present there are higher priority tasks and there's no widespread requirement for IPv6 connectivity."
Its not possible to run a WordPress instance and auto-update with IPv6-only and without any kind of adress translation.
Its mostly german, but nowadays the translators work quite well for german to english (vice versa not so much), so I will post them anyway:

The five-mile stretch of energy-saving street lights saves 2,100 kWH per week, which would amount to approximately 21 hours of ironing, or four hours of watching TV on a plasma screen.
Am I missing something? Five mile stretch? 21 hours of ironing? What iron is that.
The visualizations are perfect, I will add this to our trainee introduction on loadbalancing.
Cool! I've been recently using it to find free weekend games.
Whats wrong with that person?
Experiences with iDRAC 6, 7, 8 have been terrible. After high runtime they stop to respond via HTTP and SNMP, its just rubbish. Reboot of BMC helped Sometimes, sometimes only a powerdrain. Back then even the ProSupport could not do much, they support a system unsupported by their devs.
The latest iDRACs (with the fancy blue GUI) work a little better. I have no numbers to back all that, its just a feeling, maybe the problems are yet to come.
Given the Dell pricing, they should be better. But i've heard from collegues that ILO and others are not much better either.
