  • As far as I understood lithium ion batteries still need oxygen from the air to burn.

    This is incorrect.

    The most common method for addressing a lithium-ion vehicle fire involves fully submerging the vehicle to allow the energy to dissipate as steam.

    However, many underground parking facilities in my area are beginning to ban electric cars, as more fires start to occur, and retrofitting the necessary tanks to ensure fire safety is proving challenging.

    Is there some way to self host what cloudflare does?

    Your domain will always have to be rented through a 3rd party. Cloudflare is (or was?) one of the better choices for that.

    Cloudflare does other things as well, most notably it can acts as a proxy: an inbetween between your server and the users. This inbetween can be useful against DOS attacks, blocking of bots, etc. But for most self hosters that part is not necessary. It’s a toggle in cloudflare’s DNS dashboard: I think you’d want it to say DNS only.

    Another thing cloudflare can do is tunneling. It’s useful for when your server is behind a firewall or NAT or double NAT you can’t or don’t want to configure. You’d probably know if you use this, so I assume you don’t?





  • The problem has been noticed enough to the point that there are plenty of proposed solutions. I know of YUNOHOST, sandstorm, caprover, xsrv, runtipi.io, …

    How does your solution compare to those?

    I’ve personally tried yunohost and sandstorm, before giving up on tools like it.

    Eventually something broke, and because I didn’t do the install, it was hidden behind a button, troubleshooting became so much harder.

    For friends and family that want to self-host, without knowledge of linux, I usually recommend to purchase a synology product. It’s sadly proprietary, but it’s closest to a “point-and-click just works”.


  • Someone once explained it to me.

    Some think the law should describe illegal behaviour. And that the law should apply the same to everyone. Those people are a minority.

    What happens in practice is that most people just want to be able to punish people they don’t like. So they don’t mind overly broad, generic laws, as in their mind it will only be used against the other. Especially in (former) high-trust societies.

    And in practice the selective enforcement can work for a long, long time, too. Until a shift of power occurs, and the same laws are enacted just as selectively, but directed differently. Then they surprise pikachu.



  • In Denmark, the “right of integrity means that even in cases where you are allowed to make use of a work, you are not allowed to change it or use it in a way or in a context that infringes the author’s literary or artistic reputation or uniqueness,” a resource for Danish researchers noted.

    Infringes reputation is so sooo broad. It comes down to who does the judge like the most, no? Reddit mods will always be way down on the list, as the judicial inclined tend to be technologically illiterate.

    Also, the reddit mod is not jailed. In most of europe “prison” sentences like this are conditional sentences.


  • commenter justifying why the EU is attempting to loosen their privacy laws.

    They’re not?

    They’re listing 2 possibilities:

    Status quo: the whole AI (and tech in general) remains foreign controlled.

    EU makes a change in GDPR Law

    Maybe you can add a third option, like: “Perhaps GDPR law isn’t the reason why AI and tech sector in EU is so non-existant”, and a constructive conversation could’ve been had.

    Has anything I’ve written even read like I’m forming a group of like minded people, virtue signaling, and running the other person out of town?

    Yes.

    when I’m clearly responding to what the person wrote and only what the person wrote

    That’s sadly incorrect. You responded to an incorrect assumption made about the original comment.
