no, I mean the system has been up for a long time, but the server went down, and connection was lost

well, that is sad. thanks for the info

has it been proven that they alter archived content? haven’t heard that before

I’ve read that somewhere else too, could be

it won’t provide that, everything will still autoorun, but known bad things won’t get to run

thanks!

do you perhaps also have a solution for hanging accesses to network mounts when the server is inaccessible?

read the man pages. type “man systemd” into a linux terminal, and when finished also read the “see also” pages at the bottom. man systemd.unit is also a “central” page, it says lots of things common to all unit file types.

when you stumble into long parameter lists, you can skip them, you probably won’t use most of them. not because they are useless, though, so it’s better to at least read the names of all the parameters you come across that way so you have a picture what’s available.

skip systemd.directives, but know what it is: a catalogue of all systemd directives with the man page they are documented at. very useful, when you want to find something specific.

“man systemd.special” is special, it’s more about its internals, very informational, but relies on preexisting knowledge

what do you use as a prerequisite for the nas A mount? or does it iust keep trying in a loop?

sorry, I think I was wrong. signal/molly only attaches that information to a contact when it already has the phone number that they use for signal.

so unless you keep your phone number visible on signal, or you share your phone number in another way, this shouldn’t be a problem.

External Accessibility - Facebook can be accessed on multiple devices, by people who are not tech-conscious.

External accessibility is actually shit. you won’t have access to even read most content without an account.

what competitors? competitors to AI as a technology?

check your contacts app before stating such things. I’m not stating that signal sends your data to facebook and such, but that signal is registering info into the OS for convenience, that will also he visible to other apps with the privilege granted, including those of facebook

Which is why I don’t give anyone my phone number.

fun fact: its worse than that! its not only about your phone number. signal and almost every chat app exposes your chat partners in the system contacts database. It’s handy for the contacts app to be showing the list of chat apps usable for someone you know. at the minimum your name and profile picture that you set for yourself will be there and accessible to any apps with contacts permission, and in signal (even the molly fork) if that partner has made their phone number visible, that will be saved here too. and you can’t really turn it off for others.

normalization is the point, and harvesting data, not actual safety in any way
