The cloud is someone's server/computer. Often owned and run by someone else. Which works as long as it works. Of course, my own manage cloud/storage can also break. Anyway, here is a fresh story by @dsearls about a cloud owned by someone else. https://blogs.harvard.edu/doc/2022/12/07/when-clouds-crash/ #cloud #server #data #ransomware
I wish I could reach the correct audience to suggest to that, if you are going to work full time remote, especially for a mostly remote company for the first time, it is absolutely crucial that you learn how people communicate and actively participate in it. Not just how work information is disseminated. Join your “random” and hobby Teams or Slack channels. Meet people not on your direct team. Join a social group if your company sponsors one you find interesting. It indeed takes effort as an introvert - but while working remote you are not building relationships organically like in an office, at all. Those work relationships are important to getting stuff done in business, emotionally feeling part of a team and mission, and staying mentally healthy. We spend a big chunk of our lives working!
Over the last 5 years of working and managing a team FT remote, this social interactivity is one of the top indicators I’ve observed of whether someone will succeed and be balanced and happy, long term - or whether they will burn out and be left behind. The people who often vanish the fastest never chatted except when prompted to do so for business, never turned their camera on, nor set a profile image.
I’m not telling you to step way outside your comfort zone. I’m not saying there aren’t situations where it’s necessary to turn off the camera. I’m not saying you’ll automatically fail if you never socialize. I’m just giving you some advice based on hard life lessons of watching people thrive versus be unhappy.
@veronicapalm Jag tror men ej säker: denna typ av utbetalningsavier som hanteras genom Swedbank blir direkt insatt på det konto man har anmält. Om man inte har anmält konto tror jag man kan lösa in det som betalning när man handlar, eller få det insatt på konto mot en adminavgift. Om jag har rätt, så läs länken hur det fungerar och hur man registrerar sitt konto (behöver ej vara hos Swedbank) liksom kollar om man har något registrerat: https://www.swedbank.se/privat/betala-och-overfora/konton/anmal-konto-till-swedbanks-kontoregister.html

Apple has finally killed its ill-conceived plan to scan photos for CSAM. This is a direct result of work by experts and activists. Speaking up is important and sometimes we win.

@eliasr @veronicapalm Jag håller med dig Elias, både i att det inte går och att det är en tanke bakom det. Jag har inte koll på om det finns något förslag eller beslut eller arbete för kommande release att ändra på det.
Det jag läst som någon föreslår work around är att istället svara och ta bort namnet på den man svarar på, så blir det lite som RT med kommentar (jag vet inte om det är smart metod, inte funderat närmare, utan nämner utan egen åsikt).
Come hang out, or lend us your voice and tell us how wrong we are 😉

@patdavid Yes, why not? I do! 🙂
@Emma Ett par frågor, för att bilda mig:
1) Är det sista meningen som är sk ministerstyre "En liberal..." eller också meningen före "Mkt bra..."?
2) Vilka beslut som Migrationsverket tar har väl en grund i lagar, men också i regleringsbrev, tror jag. Stämmer? I vad mån reglerar/kan reglera (lag o brev mm) riksdag och regering hur Migrationsverket ska agera per land, kön, ålder etc etc? Alltså min undran ungefär vilken roll skulle liberal och borgerlig regering kunna ha utan vara ministerstyre?

@n0r @neil @ThatPrivacyGuy Element for Matrix or any other suggestion?
@neil @n0r @ThatPrivacyGuy Yes, interoperability. If the user at one end of the line uses Facebook Messenger (in browser or mobile app), and for that matter in other cases WhatsApp, I do not know about any method to communicate with Fb Messenger nor WhatsApp without using the same tool. I have understood the options is either both ends use them, or both use something else.
@n0r @ThatPrivacyGuy @neil But do you mean it exist any FOSS messenger that I can use in my end and the other person use the Fb Messenger, and the conversation becomes E2E encrypted??? When the terms for the conversation is that I have to meet the person(s) where they are, or not communicate (digital) at all.
@n0r @ThatPrivacyGuy @neil I agree to "strategy" and be aware and not use messenger (you mean Fascebook messenger) and alike to critical data. I avoid it in general, but I use it for some personal and private. A lot is to me a combo of safe products and pragmatism where I have the possibility communicate with other. Re only use FOSS, one issue (Sweden) is BankID (+competitor), for all contacts to banks, authorities and more, I must use a device w Andriod, Windows, iOS or macOS for login itself.
