Fellow IT guy here, I absolutely hate working from the office. Home life is my life and work life only matters to me insofar as it's necessary to my home life.

Anything taking my brain from home mode to work mode is an obstacle that should be avoided.

What a senseless waste of life. And I bet all of these completely avoidable and totally unnecessary tragedies make excellent recruitment propaganda for the likes of Hamas.

“Everyone’s saying it.”

Agreed, if not for the presumption of innocence.

I’m not sure if I feel strongly enough about it to have a consequential opinion either way but I’m trying to at least judge the situation objectively.

I think you raised a valid point. The non-consensual nature of deepfakes pushes it into the realm of abuse material and maybe that’s worse overall than the general exploitation of women going on in the adult film industry, even if those are supposed to be “consensual” on paper.

That’s the part I was alluding to as being worse

Deepfake pornography is super goony but if I had to look for a silver lining, at least nobody had to undergo the actual physical degradation of making porn. It’s still gross in its own way, but it’s a different kind of gross that seems worse in some ways but better in others.

I don’t know… Am I off base here?

I did the same a month ago... Still no regrets.

iPhone is pretty weak for that but you can also use Garageband on your phone to do the conversion.

cool tip, i didn't know about this either but it's awesome!

Way cool, thanks for sharing!

Tied my left hand into a pretzel trying that one

Ah, yes. Tailscale. That's a pretty obvious solution that I hadn't considered... Thanks for the recommendation.

do you mind sharing a basic explanation about your setup? i'm looking at doing something similar with TrueNAS and NextCloud.

Blu makes some decent phones for pretty cheap. I used the Bold N1 for quite a while. I believe the Bold N2 is out now but I've admittedly moved onto a Pixel since I've had the budget for it.

DDG isn't the paragon of privacy. Try Qwant or StartPage.
