Downdetector shows that they have some problems, but as @[email protected] already mentioned, this is not the right community.

Can you link a case where that actually happened?

Cases where salary was paid by government aren't directly available online (at least in Finland) but I personally have recieved money trough them and followed the process from the side as my previous employer was bankrupted. Also in here the tax office is the biggest entity which drives companies to dept collection and eventually to bankrupt if they don't have money. So, yes, it happens pretty much all the time. Most of the time those are businesses which are going down anyways so there's nothing to get, but there's no mechanism preventing that happening to any company which doesn't play by the rules.

Good luck with trying to evade payments.

I don't know how things work in Germany but here in Finland we have an government agency which pays salaries if company can't or won't as a safeguard for employees. After that they go after the company with pretty beefy lawsuits which eventually say that either the company pays for the salaries and some extra for the trouble or government just seizes and sells enough property that they get what they're owed. And if company doesn't have money nor property then it'll go bankrupt and that's it. I assume Germany (and most of the other European countries) have similar mechanisms.

And then there's of course the union too. They can just decide to either stop coming to work altogether or go in a 'sitting strike', as in show up but don't do anything during the day. And they can enforce that, you can't just hire new people to replace those on strike.

people using it are not secure at all.

And this is very much not limited just to signal. No matter what software, protocol or any other way you use to communicate, both you and the receiving entity/entities are the weakest link by a long shot. I don't expect even my closest friends to hold our everyday conversations secret if for whatever reason their wellbeing was threated in any way. And even if I did there's always other options, like targeted social engineering, to get trough pretty much any reasonable safety concerns on digital communication.

Of course in everyday life if our chat histories were publicly available it would not be too big of an issue, but it's still something worth keeping on mind when interacting over any digital or any other written medium.

same misconception in Finnish culture that lemmings will in large groups run off cliffs and dash themselves into the sea below?

What misconception? I learned that from Donald Duck in 1990s and surely they draw only pure facts.

I also vouch for bags. Just purchase two boxes with the vacuum and make a habit to rip the model number out of the empty box and add it to grocery list immediately after one is empty. They're pretty cheap, mostly made out of paper so they're not that bad for the environment and the bag acts as an additional filter which saves actual vacuum filters and motor in the long run.

Exactly. You can build rules with ufw and view them on iptables. Maybe the one thing ufw does better out of the box is persistent rules and simpler "firewall on/off" switch, but specially on this particular question I don't think they matter.

I haven't got a new a vacuum at least in a decade (more likely 15 years or few more), but I'm on a market for a new one too. Current one is Miele and it's been abused by dog hair, kids, house remodeling and pretty much whatever you can think of. It still functions but the plastic is starting to fall apart.

But, based on that one model, which hasn't been available in years, it seems to be a pretty reliable.

Investors will adapt if the global agreements are clear. But that's a pretty damn big "if". Nato countries (currently without US) might build up something which works for them, but that still leaves roughly a half of the globe out of the equation. UN is not even close having enough leverage to make that happen, even if Hague would technically be the place where this kind of decisions would naturally fall into.

And the situation we have right now with global west (mainly EU, USA, Canada), global east (China, India and some of the Russia) and global south (BRICS) is way too unstable and scattered to make any global "best out of 3" vote impossible (and I obviously oversimplified the situation).

Maybe we need to reach out to some extraterrestial court to decide about this...

if they meant plantains, which are bananas but different

Which I did. In here they're referred as 'food bananas' or 'cooking bananas', I just didn't bother to look up the correct name.

While I personally think that we should just give everything seized from Russia to Ukraine I understand the problem at hand. There needs to be quite a bit of global discussion and agreements on things like this. Global agreemeent to seize whatever you can from a country which invades another one seems like a no brainer, but that blade cuts both ways. With Russia the global effect is pretty minuscle (I think) as most of the global west is already out of there, but if the same situation was with China and Taiwan it's a whole different matter as practically all the western investments in there would just vanish overnight. And should China just decide to stop all exports it would be pretty catastrophic to western wold, military included. And it's pretty much the same picture with USA vs EU, should USA really end up in a dictatorship.

But after that, if EU just decides to seize all Russian assets in order to help Ukraine I would be that it would have pretty much global acceptance behind.

Aikansa kulttiklassikko. Hauskaa elokuvailtaa!

image

Tarjolla on melkoinen kattaus muitakin ajatuksia herättäviä elokuvia.

 

So, as the topic says, I'm going to set up a self hosted email service for myself, family and friends. I know that this one is a controversial topic around here, but trust me when I say I know what I'm getting into. I've had a small hosting business for years and I've had my share of issues with microsoft and others, I know how to set things up and keep them running and so on.

However, on the business side we used both commercial solution and a dirt-cheap service with just IMAPS/SMTPS and webmail with roundcube. Commercial one (Kerio Connect, neat piece of software, check it out if you need one) is something I don't want to pay for anymore (even if their pricing is pretty decent, it's still money out from my pocket).

I know for sure I can rely to bog-standard postfix+dovecot+spamassassin -combo, and it will work just fine for plain email. However, I'd really like to have calendar and contacts in the mix as well and as I've only worked with commercial solution for the last few years I'm not up to speed on what the newest toys can offer.

I'm not that strict on anything, but the thing needs to run on linux and it must have the most basic standards supported, like messages stored on maildir-format (simplifies migration to other platform if things change), support for sieve (or other commonly supported protocol) and contacts/calendar need to work with pretty much anything (android, ios, linux, windows, mac...) without extra software on client end (*DAV excluded, those are fine in my books). And obviously the thing needs to work with imaps, smtps, dkim and other necessities, but that should be implied anyways.

I know that things like zimbra, sogo and iredmail exist, but as mentioned, it's been a while since I've played with things like that, so what are your recommendations for setup like this today?

I'm not the first by any means and my factory is a spaghetti mess with a crapload of problems all around the place. Specially with the last phase I just threw something together, manually fed manufacturers and handheld the factory so that it could finish the last few parts.

I didn't (yet) get all of the achievements (and I don't know if I'll ever get to that last one), but it's completed. Also I've got few things in MAM unopened, didn't even bother to check portals and there's some other content left to explore. With family and all the other things going on in life I mostly had few hours here and there over weekends to play, so it took some time, but it was a fun experience.

I think if I get back to that save file I'll need a fresh start at somewhere else on the map and build things with better planning, eventually replacing the current spaghetti. I started from the plains at south and plenty of the map is still pretty much untouched, apart from random power lines and radar towers dotted around.

I did play on early access too, but stopped on that save once devs announced a feature freeze before 1.0 release a while ago, so I had some idea on what I'm going for and it did really help on how to plan things for the future at least a bit, but eventually pretty much everything I built was too small and cramped.

Either way, as mentioned, it was fun. If any of the devs/team are reading, thank you for your work. I don't have all that much of spare time to play games and this was always fun to start and either just wander around gathering stuff, improving existing things or building new ones.

opinions on end gameIn my opinion story part of the game, specially at the end, was a bit disappointing and left a lot of questions unanswered, but it was still fun and even rewarding to activate the space elevator last time.

 

Vähän puhaltaa tuolla ulkona täällä pohjanmaallakin. Kasvihuone meinasi lähteä maailmanmatkalle kun ovi irtosi tuulessa ja kun puuskat pääsi sisälle niin sehän meinasi repiä koko keksinnön palasiksi. Samaten terassin valokatteet vaikuttivat siltä että haluavat olla ennemmin riippuliitäjiä tai jotain muita lentäviä juttuja kuin katteita. Joten nukkumisen sijaan kävin sitten taiteleimassa vähän lisää ruuveja katteisiin ja pikakorjauksena ruuvailin kasvihuoneen oven kiinni karmeihin ja lisäilin muutaman riman pitämään muoveja paikoillaan. Aikaisemmin illalla piti tehdä myös pikakorjaus kylmän parvekkeen ikkunaan, jonka lasia paikoillaanpitävä ruuvi oli melkein irti ja lasi karmeineen hakkasi sitä edelleen ulospäin.

Talon kattopellit sentään vaikuttavat ainakin vielä pysyvän paikoillaan eikä kaatuneita puitakaan näkynyt. Aamulla voi käydä katselemassa onko terassin katteet kestäneet vai onko tuuli piessyt ne aivan palasiksi ja samalla tarkistaa että onko kasvihuoneesta jäljellä mitään muuta kuin pelkkä runko.

Onkos muilla sopuleilla ollut jänniä tilanteita puhurin kanssa? Tai miksei ihan muuten vaan.

 

Ei se maailma ehkä aivan joka kohdasta pilalla ole.

 

Kyberturvallisuuskeskuksen mukaan lokakuun alussa havaittiin mittava palvelunestohyökkäys, jossa suuri osuus hyökkäysliikenteestä käytti hyväkseen Asus-merkkisiä reitittimiä. Niissä huomattiin haavoittuvuus, joka mahdollisti hyökkääjille pääsyn laitteisiin.

 

ChatControl ei ole ainakaan ihan vielä edes tällä kierroksella kuopattu. "EU haluaa" tarkoittaa tässä yhteydessä aika vahvasti "Unkari haluaa", puheenjohtajavuorossa kun on, mutta kyllähän tuo varmasti kelpaisi vähän kaikenlaisille tahoille että päästä päähän salaukset olisi mahdollista purkaa ja jonkun kolmannen osapuolen toimesta tarkistaa että tässäkään viestissä ei ole lapsipornoa. Ja tämä on tietysti vain se ensimmäinen vaihe, seuraavia voi arpoa jos pikkusormi tälle annetaan. Terrorismi on ainakin ilmeinen "helppo" syy lisätä valvontaa ja siitä päästäänkin näppärästi vaikka "demokratian uhkaamiseen" tai johonkin muuhun poliittisen toiminnan häirintään, joka voikin sitten tarkoittaa aikalailla kaikkea lakkosuunnitteluista vallankaappausyrityksiin.

 

Ja taas mennään
