Oh wow, you got the tankies to come out in force

Oh I know it’s better, problem is I host some stuff my friend group relies on so I don’t want downtime while I figure things out. Also, it’s a bit of a pain in the ass to get NixOS set up on a VPS without native support (I’m on Hetzner and I know it’s possible, it’s just a bit of a hassle). It’s one of those projects that I’ll get to eventually, when I got time. Or so I tell myself

NixOS for most things, Debian on some servers as a docker host

Yeah I agree. Although recently I’ve become partial to toml… In the end I’ll use what’s common in the ecosystem I’m developing in

Nothing too major about how it’s usually used, but the yaml spec does allow arbitrary code execution when parsing a file and relies on the parser to have that feature disabled: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/YAML#Security

That’s why for python, yaml.save_load() is a thing. That’s fine for your local config files and may even be a feature for you, but it shouldn’t be used to exchange information between services.

Don’t rely on VPNs as your (only) security, if you are at actual risk from your online activities. For piracy, it does not matter. Pick one you like

It’s one of my favorite anime, but the characters can be really annoying sometimes. Still, I found it to be less annoying later on, as the stakes got raised and things start to go to shit

I don’t buy it

a good approach to Ubisoft games

It has a steep learning curve, but it’s super nice to use once you’re over the initial bump

rapists are ordinary men =/= all men are rapists

I’m gonna second French and Arabic for sheer amount of speakers (native or as secondary language), as well as geographic variety.

Other than that, I would’ve said that Russian would serve you well in the post-soviet sphere of influence, but that changed recently for obvious reasons. You very likely don’t want to travel to Russia, and her neighbors don’t look to kindly on Russian either, now. Will still do in a pinch

okay, and one joke answer: Japanese, you’ll find weebs to talk to in every country

you mean

The bullet train is wholly irrelevant here. It does not transport cargo now, does it? Build a fucking freight train line. Every time some tech bro suggests a solution involving pods, a civil engineer has a stroke

Build a god damn train

Nice

Unless “it” is a pipe bomb or a fresh piece of shit

Infinite time is perfectly defined, it just doesn’t exist in our universe

At the end of the story, Kushmaro is offered the task of pressing a button to denonate a building.

Cool, he’s no longer a journalist under international law then.

It’s also likely a war crime.
