No, with these reasons:

• Bandwidth isn’t plenty
• My “uptime” at home isn’t great
• No redundant hardware, even a simple mainboard defect would take a while to replace

I have a VPS for these tasks, and I host a few sites for friends amd family.

I got it a few times over the last years, once on the steam deck.

Just one open source example … freeradius has an option to log passwords:

log {
    destination = files
    auth = no
    auth_badpass = no
    auth_goodpass = no
}

Or another example: The apache web server has a module that dumps all POST data, with passwords, in plain text:

mod_dumpio allows for the logging of all input received by Apache and/or all output sent by Apache to be logged (dumped) to the error.log file. The data logging is done right after SSL decoding (for input) and right before SSL encoding (for output). As can be expected, this can produce extreme volumes of data, and should only be used when debugging problems.

I don’t agree that this is “absolutely malice”, it could also be stupidity and forgetfulness.

This is not about facebook not hashing credentials, it is that they appeared in internal logs.

Facebook is probing a series of security failures in which employees built applications that logged unencrypted password data for Facebook users and stored it in plain text on internal company servers.

All models are equipped with 16GB of RAM, and two additional storage variants are available that cost 21,999 yuan (about $3,089) for 512GB and 23,999 yuan (about $3,370) for 1TB.

They are learning from Apple about the memory price. $300 for 512 gb additional memory storage is insane.

By supporting work on a freelance basis

This sounds like Valve is paying devs to work full time on arch, and thus managing to achive more than volunteers could.

A little low specs for a tablet with “pro” in its name, but at only €400 they needed to save money somewhere

You’re right, my comment was oversimplified.

Because both ways are used. Microsoft relies on file names, linux on the first bytes of the file.

I don’t think “most” applies here. Text-based files, pdf, media files and most executeable files are not .zip.

I think it makes sense from a programming view. When you have a document, you can add all the media files and pack them together as one archive. Then the program sets the filename to .docx so everyone knows that they need an office program to open that file.

For the users, all you need to know is what program can open which files. If every document would be named .zip, you would have no idea if it was a spreadsheet or slides for your presentation.

OP refers to the fact that you can rename some filetypes to .zip and unpack them.

Notable examples microsoft office files (.docx) or android apps (.apk).

Counterexample are media files (mp3, mp4, jpg).

I was a little disappointed how little happens. Anybody still remember the baseball at the speed of light?

Thanks for the hint on nVidia. That might explain my issue

I don’t think the noveau drivers are ready for gaming.

Oh, they found one scenario that looks good for them. Never trust those early benchmarks until they can be verified independently.

It is good that they are easier to read, because they are about as long as the first book of The lord of the rings.

Doesn’t look too bad for me

AFAIK completely without ads. This is the first sentence from the link I provided in my previous comment:

Meta will offer people in the EU, EEA and Switzerland the choice to pay a monthly subscription to use Facebook and Instagram without any ads

They want 10€ from EU citizens to not show ads, but it is doubtful that this is legal.
