This is a good point. I’m a big proponent of *provider diversity*. Every cloud service you use should have a different login. Every piece of data you create should have an easily-accessible copy in your local file system. Everything on your computer should be backed up offsite with a separate cloud backup.
Do not put all your eggs into one cloud service basket. Do not use the same login for unrelated services. This rules out most of Apple’s cloud products for me.

"And the cloud, as we like to say, is a fancy term for someone else's computer"
Thank you for stating it in such a clear and simple way, @… !

Content warning: Constellation spoilers (e03)

why are they still in Russia? Why is this weird hostile debrief happening? Why is this Astronaut taking a photo of his computer screen? Why are we even making shows where Russia is some benevolent space partner in 2024? What is this show?

Odd things Ubuntu does
Having just booted a new VM up using the official #Canonical #Ubuntu image on #Azure, I noticed that, during the first boot cycle, it makes a call out to "entropy.ubuntu.com"
This is done by the "polliniate" package which describes itself:
pollinate is an entropy as a service client. It will fetch a random seed from one or more remote servers, and feed those into a (pseudo) random number generator. This is often useful in cloud and virtual machine environments with limited sources of entropy.
manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/j
There's something oddly jarring about this. Not least because this call-out for "supplementary" entropy is done after generating the host's SSH keys.
I hope, hope very much, that someone with Prof in their title from a very well regarded Computer Science department has written a paper suggesting this is ok.

This is how *my* day is going.
`One or more errors occured` great, thanks. *WHAT* errors? there's no explanatory popup, there's no log file, nothing.
This says:
`This is an edge case we couldn't be arsed to handle properly either because we are lazy developers or our product management doesn't give a shit. So fuck you Mr/Ms Customer.`
not even spelled correctly. Not a good sign from a translation tool.

A (not) helpful error message from a Computer Aided Translation tool indicating "An error has occured (sic) while using the translation provider Language Weaver Cloud: One or more errors occured."

There is no immediately obvious detail or a log message to drill into for further details. Absolutely nothing helpful.

lol. You all don't need to DM instance owners to tell them they have spam. They either know or are just away from the computer. You can chill.

Pretty impressed by nvidia's GeForce Now cloud gaming. Seems to be the only reasonable way how to play games like #fortnite on #linux without dealing with Epic anti-cheat nonsense. Additionally no need to install tons of proprietary stuff onto my computer. Well except Chrome.
