Users completely underestimate how risky the use of #cloud storage is, which is very frustrating. But to be fair, the corporations don't really warn them.
I'm not saying #cloud storage can never be used, but if you have to use it, there are some rules:
▶️ Assume everything will be nuked tomorrow
▶️ Assume the state is watching your activity
▶️ It must not be your primary storage. You must have at least 1 full copy on devices you control
▶️ All files in cloud storage are basically public
It's not just Google, of course. When you trust your data to ANY #cloud service, you can get rugpulled at any moment without warning. Remember, they have the de-facto control over the data, and you don't.
What “hybrid cloud” actually means to us. Where it works well, where it creates challenges, where the control plane should live, how to abstract differences between platforms to make workloads more suitable to be used in a hybrid setup, maintaining compliance across clouds, and guarding against security vulnerabilities in containerised dependencies.
Today I learned: #nix-infect, to transform a vm from another distribution into #NixOS, mostly for cloud providers that don't offer this option! (Including #DigitalOcean and #hetzner). I am going to use it! :)
vi ricordiamo che da 1 anno tutti gli utenti di #MastodonUno possono fare richiesta di un account Nextcloud da 25GB per poter conservare e condividere file senza le limitazioni presenti su mastodon.
Nextcloud è un progetto open source e permette di importare automaticamente tutti i file dall'account #dropbox.
Questo è il modulo di richiesta per ricevere i dati di accesso:
Wahnsinn. Die #Amazon#Cloud ist ja wirklich ein tolles Ding ... um Amazon Geld zu besorgen. 🤣
Wirklich unglaublich, was man da liest. Da werden viele Firmen teures Lehrgeld zahlen, bis sie wegen Kostenexplosion vielleicht doch wieder in eigenes Wissen und Know-How investieren, sofern noch möglich ...
I get so, so tired of how some people have a knee-jerk reaction about how the big #cloud companies "steal" #opensource software. No, no, they don't. They often help build it.
I'm a Docker (or containers in general) non-believer. I simply don't believe in the promises it makes.
Docker is supposed to be easy to set up, easy to update, easy to migrate and always works. However, I've head plenty of stories where a container setup doesn't want to work, doesn't want to update or doesn't work after migrating. It's the same shit.
I'll stick to plain old system packages and there is absolutely nothing that will stop me.
@ptribble and this inplies that #ibm is expecting to relief their cloud customers of an additional 64bn. why exactly was it that people still believe #cloud fairy tales about cutting cost?
