Question is, what is its Wife Acceptance Factor (WAF)?

Weeeell, there’s a school of though leaning towards the opinion that using VPS is still self-hosting ;)

There has been an improvement - and regulations - in this regard over time, so you both may be right.

Similar top-down cultural phenomenon dictated by corpos is concept of “personal carbon footprint” - as a means of shifting blame and focus from them to individuals. This is almost conspiracy level unbelievable when heard for the first time, but true nonetheless.

Well first you need guaranteed food, shelter and safety for everyone, so people don’t feel existential pressures. Which means you have to start with utopia before expanding on the ideas you present…

I love this “Cultural malware” as a name for things like these.

I think this is the best answer. Separation of concerns and all. And OP can keep using whatever notes app he is right now or even switch to another, without the additional encryption requirement.

I guess they have enough now.

Chechnya was independent at the time, you know.

Uber “people” or uber eats? Is there a difference in driver experience between the two?

Well yes, pizza delivery guys are pushed into the reckless driving too - some of the most absurd crashes I’ve seen involved them - however there is a big difference in the immediacy of the pushing. There’s a difference between your boss yelling at you to be faster once per day or a week and the app constantly pushing you with realtime feedback and ever changing incentives.

This is too bad, wish you the best. I already had a thought these apps are effectively decreasing safely of the cities for the profit, but haven’t experienced it myself…

Don’t forget to compare a consumption too, or perhaps “performance per watt” metric. If plan to run this CPU in a server, this makes a difference in the electricity bill - especially for always on server.

This is very important distinction to be made. Sync is not a backup.

However, you can get 90% there with Syncthing when you enable file versioning or at least trash can for the files.

It sound really intriguing, now I want my own Bram Brekelmans!

Is that something like Crowdstrike? ;)

Tell us more.

This is the approach I try to also follow. It also makes the process of restoration from the backups or migrating to different server much easier.

Draw.io is also totally open and is able to be integrated into many different tools - so chances are your tool of choice already has a plug in for it. For example, nextcloud does.

You mean the one that played in Star Warlands?
