Oh. This just opened up a terrifying thought. The Borg would take one look and go, “Shit, we need one of those.” And then we’ll eventually have a Borg giga-cube on our hands.
Could be from scratch, could be from amalgamating all their other cubes. Either way, terrifying.

Is this one of those vanilla memes that I’m too ReVanced to understand?

Counterpoint: Having those questions posited here does mean we can start getting fediverse traction in Google. Even if it’s a tiny amount.

There’s also a limited federation mode that server admins can use. Users and posts are still searchable, but they do not show on the public federated feed.
Useful for this exact case where a server may have beneficial accounts, but the rest should be hidden for moderation reasons.

Still would prefer it being on a proper mastodon server, but I can live with this. Whatever server ends up hosting a President’s account now has to deal with record preservation laws for their posts. Let’s leave that bureaucratic stuff to threads.

Wouldn’t be surprised if they got some personally delivered letters from the legal department of a big media company, given that they blocked visibility to some magazines on other servers.

Personal firewall.
If an app doesn’t need internet access to do its job, it doesn’t get it. Simple as that.

Fedora Linux also comes with SELinux enabled by default. Did you check that the new home folder and all its contents have the proper SELinux tags?
Run an ls -lZ and check that the directory has the user_home_t tag,
The user’s home directory is also stored in the /etc/passwd file. Did you update the entry there?

No, do not “disable SELinux”. That advice hasn’t been valid for a good 20 years. You can set it to permissive though, to see if it’s the source of the problem.

And once again, he started zapping.

Easy. It’s far too expensive to implement, both in money and man-hours. Especially man-hours.

The amount of people required to personally surveil the general populace is way too exorbitant, AND they have to monitor their own people to prevent leaks. The logistics explodes well before this becomes feasible.

Then there’s discoverability. Once such hardware is out there, it’s only a matter of time before it falls into the hands of someone capable of dissecting it. Given that such spying methods would be ‘sold’ to federal management on the grounds of national security, there’s an interest in not having it fall into such hands. Therefore, these methods are reserved for high-profile targets. Not the average Joe citizen.

To summarize: Too expensive (money), too expensive (logistics), and too expensive (R&D). Unless you’re on Interpol’s most wanted list or something, you don’t need to worry about this.

These are the same people who drive with paper-thin, or even fully rusted off, brake rotors. And then they yell at the mechanics for “upselling them” on brake maintenance.

I firmly believe that brakes should be the absolute last thing to fail on a car. The tires can rupture, the steering shatter, and the car snapped in two, but I must be able to bring the remaining wreckage to a stop.

If you have admin portal access to write transport rules, I recommend writing a rule that has the server reply with a 550 5.7.1 Delivery Refused error. Trigger it based on the keyphrases “top of Google search” and “affordable SEO” to start with.

At least your holder is still assembled properly. People at my job take the roll holder, yank it half out of the box, and just leave it in that mangled state.

The ability to take for granted that anything and everything I purchased was owned outright. It couldn’t be taken away, either intentionally or accidentally, in any capacity.
Now everything is all always-online digital licenses, and they can be swapped to monthly subscriptions at a moments notice.

I’ve always liked the fan theory that Event Horizon took place in the Warhammer 40k universe, and that the ship went into the warp without the necessary gellar fields.

PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo’s lawyers:

No need for lead. Just make something similar to those microwave door mesh plates and embed it in with the insulation.

Computer monitors should work too, and are more readily available. Just dig through the business oriented monitors and ignore the gaming ones, as cable providers aren’t really going to have anything that can take advantage of >60 fps display rates.
