Not so much ire than awareness and planning so we don't get caught pants down. I've been using them for 5 years, in part because their clients (for my OSes) are open source and there was a path out of their infrastructure. I paid for it and have a pretty elaborate setup which supports services for family and friends. I've been happy so far, but will be decoupling from their infrastructure. No ire for them, just for the system. The system makes people and firms do what they do. 😄

Huh, I actually didn't know this because I don't use Windows/macOS/iOS. Somehow completely missed this.

[–] avidamoeba@lemmy.ca 12 points 15 hours ago

Yeah, as I said, it's a friendly reminder. I'm personally probably doing it this year. It's entirely possible that enshittification could come even years from now. It all depends on how their enterprise adoption goes I think. The more money they make there, the longer the individual users are gonna be left unsqueezed.

Well not "the" backend server but "a" different backend server. As far as I know Headscale is a separate implementation from what Tailscale run themselves.

I think it would be cool if Tailscale made it into the enterprise arena.

I think they already have started. Telus is on their list of clients.

You know, I looked at my shifter just now and it's actually XTR. The rest is as stated. 😂

Yeah, I think it's the mechanical manufacturing precision that takes a great derailleur system like SLX, XT and gets it that extra step to feel magical. With that said, it's very impressive how good the cheap stuff is these days too. CUES is quite something for the price.

Nah, DNS is separate and these features are indeed pretty great. I think Headscale can also do them. I think I tested MagicDNS if I recall correctly.

If there's no one who can replace you with someone else, if you don't deliver profit growth that they expect, then there's a chance for you to apply principle over profit because it's up to you. Many if not most corporations however can and do replace corporate leadership that doesn't deliver profit growth with one that does. In these circumstances, leadership can rarely put principle over profit without being replaced. Many if not most of us see the direct effects of this process on our lives, working to get ever more of our incomes and health. This process hasn't stopped and hasn't slowed down. The opposite. This is why you're hearing us grinding against capitalism as we can see the system all around us grinding us down. This is why it's likely you'll keep hearing it and it's likely gonna get louder. I might not have your product in my home. If I do, I might be very happy with it because you're not trying to get as much money out of me as you can. However I am certain without checking that I have Unilever, Kraft, Nestle, PepsiCo, Google and so on, and I know they are. You probably do too and they're probably skinning you just as much. This is what capitalism is for us and we will grind against it because our standard of living is falling and it's not because of people like you. Small businesses have much more in common with us in this, than large corporations, or small corporations funded by large capital of different kinds. I'm an employee of a very large, well known American corporation that has strategically stopped making products that were objectively better for its customers but had lower margins, replacing them with much more expensive, higher margin ones. I'm not getting anything from the difference. Our major shareholders do.

Nice to hear your experience with Nebula. I considered it when I went with Tailscale years ago. Now you gotta migrate off of lemm.ee as it's shutting down soon. :D

[–] avidamoeba@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 day ago

I am not that big of an enthusiast, but the way I see it, if a company goes rogue and you’re using their open source code, it’s just a matter of forking it (I’m thinking about Emby/Jellyfin as an example) If you rely on their infrastructure (such as Tailscale servers) then you are at the mercy of the companies

if I setup Headscale on my network, I would have to open a port on my router to connect to it right?

The way I understand it is:

I would have to open a port on my router to connect to it right?

Yes

if I setup Headscale with some cloud provider, could they theoretically go and use the setup to get to my home network?

If they are able to authorize their own node to your Headscale server, then their node gets on your network. If they take over the Headscale node, they might also be able to access your network, either by changing Headscale's config to auth another node or perhaps if the Headscale node is part of the network, which it might be, I don't recall. But I think that's immaterial. If someone takes over the Headscale machine, they can get on your network either way.

I did support Carney and I hope he does good things, and I don't think the following scenario would occur but I realize this belief is entirely based on my judgement of Carney's character which could be wrong.

I was thinking about the proposed gas pipeline to the east coast. If Carney hopes to be re-elected, he can't ram a pipeline through Quebec using emergency powers if such exist. Or he'd lose his seats in QC. Instead he's gotta give significant concessions to QC, like ownership, high royalties, etc. Stuff that he and Blanchet can sell to the Quebecers. I think this is certainly possible for a gas pipeline.

But then the following disaster scenario occurred to me. He likely has significant Brookfield investments in that blind trust. He likely has a seat open on that board whenever he quits public service. What if he uses emergency powers to ram a whole bunch of infrastructure, through P3s, where the private partner retains ownership, and the partner is Brookfield. Do as many of those as possible, get kicked out of office and sit on Brookfield's board, that much richer, while we get saddled with an even angrier and vindicated CPC fascism.

Thoughts?

Edit: Thanks for wading into my election PTSD nightmare!

 

I wanted to buy a pair of pants but I can't see Add to card anywhere. Am I blind?

 

Niagara Falls—Niagara-on-the-Lake is another close LPC-CPC race that could use any help from non-LPC voters. It used to be a CPC seat.

This page shows a nice visualization of the closest races.

 

I have a unique opportunity to add a node at the Tower LNB ring. However I'm struggling to source a Meshtastic gateway that meets the requirements I'v been given. Any help would be appreciated.

  1. Power will be provided over 48v POE ONLY
  2. Remote management is a must, consider both internet provided over ethernet and 4G/LTE as backup (fw updates)
  3. Maximum 5db gain antenna can be used positioned on the LNB ring facing N-NW, must not exceed 1400mm in length
  4. Must be tuned for exactly 915mhz (l'm thinking cavity filter) to help with Rx.
  5. Enclosure and antenna must be pole mounted
  6. Absolutely no wifi 2.4 or 5ghz
  7. 500CND budget I'd like a set it and forget it approach. ls it even worth it?
 

Six Conservative MPs, including the party's deputy leader, disclosed last year they personally invested in companies related to Brookfield Corp., despite attacking Liberal Leader Mark Carney for his work chairing one of its spinoff companies.

 

A report from a Japanese news outlet that Honda is considering moving some of its production out of Canada to the U.S. is not accurate, Ontario Premier Doug Ford and a spokesperson for federal Minister of Industry Anita Anand said.

Previous title was "Honda considering moving some auto production out of Canada"

 
Party Name Seats (Current) Seats Change Percentage (Current) Percentage Change Majority Probability Minority Probability
Liberal 183 +23 43.6% +11% 70.5% 15.7%
Conservative 138 +19 43.2% +9.5% 5.7% 8.1%
Bloc 14 -18 3.5% -4.1% 0% 0%
New Democrat 6 -19 6.2% -11.6% N/A N/A
 

A year old but perhaps important context for this election given his rhetoric here.

 

The Liberal Party led by Mark Carney continues to gain momentum in week two of election campaigning (46%, +2), opening a double-digit lead over Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives (34%, -4 pts) among decided voters.

Well this is interesting. Stick-a-node to any smartphone with magnetic back. I could see myself trying this.
