Varsinkin kun pikkukunnissa monessa asiassa edetään otteella “poikien kanssa tässä vähän puuhaillaan”, eikä ison maailman hömpötykset paina.

Todettakoon kuitenkin, että se Perähikiän kunnan vesihuolto ei luultavasti ole sabotöörien ykköskohde, kun mahdolliset vaikutukset olisi aivan mitättömät. Mutta tämä ei tietenkään ole syy jättää varautumatta

Sure. I’m not recommending anything, just stating what has worked for me. For simple use cases, I think most of the DDNS services are pretty much the same anyway and it’s easy to switch to an another one if one stops working for some reason.

Well, just by looking at responses in this thread, the controversy most definitely still exists. Some seem to like it and others hate it fiercely.

I was going to give the example of the Carnival cruise ship that sank in the 2010s (I think) largely due to the captain’s incompetence[…]

That’s Costa Concordia. It received extra media attention and is mostly known due to the awful behavior of the captain who first directly caused the accident and then fled the ship before most of his passengers.

Työpaikan kahvipöydässä kuulin, että niksi on tehdä numeronsiirto kilpailijalle ja odottaa, että nykyiseltä operaattorilta tulee ns. winback-tarjous, yleensä tekstiviestillä. Mutta ekaan tarjoukseen ei kannata vielä tarttua, vaan odottaa että tulee vielä parempi tarjous tai soittavat perään. Ja tämä sitten uudestaan joka kerta kun tarjoushintainen kausi on päättymässä.

Itsellä ei kyllä todellakaan ole mielenkiintoa moiseen rumpaan.

Mistä uudempien ydinvoimaloiden polttoaine tulee ja mitä eroa niillä on? Mun tietämys ydinvoimaloista on tasoa “sisään menee uraania ja ulos tulee sähköä”, joten siksi kyselen tyhmiä

My main issue with CVEs nowadays is that it seems one gets generated even when 99% of the use cases for the software in question are not vulnerable as the vulnerability requires a very specific configuration/circumstances/etc. to be exploitable. In large projects with lots of dependencies this adds a lot of noice and there’s a risk that actual important CVEs go unnoticed.

That or live cd (well, most likely live usb nowadays)

Cool, thanks for the explanation.

a single application that gets bundled with all necessary dependencies including versioning

Does that mean that if I were to install Application A and Application B that both have dependency to package C version 1.2.3 I then would have package C (and all of its possible sub dependencies) twice on my disk? I don’t know how much external dependencies applications on Linux usually have but doesn’t that have the potential to waste huge amounts of disk space?

Sorry to ask, I’m not really familiar with Linux desktop nowadays: I’ve seen Flatpak and Flathub talked about a lot lately and it seems to be kinda a controversial topic. Anyone wanna fill me in what’s all the noice about? It’s some kind of cross-distro “app store” thingy?
