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.

You're right, these are definitely some advanced topics. But no need to know everything yourself, if you stumble upon one of these topics during your research, you might want to post them here.

Yes, that is why many big tech companies have their european hq there.

You're right, Google released their vision in 2023, here is what it says regarding lifespan:

a reduction of TLS server authentication subscriber certificate maximum validity from 398 days to 90 days. Reducing certificate lifetime encourages automation and the adoption of practices that will drive the ecosystem away from baroque, time-consuming, and error-prone issuance processes. These changes will allow for faster adoption of emerging security capabilities and best practices, and promote the agility required to transition the ecosystem to quantum-resistant algorithms quickly. Decreasing certificate lifetime will also reduce ecosystem reliance on “broken” revocation checking solutions that cannot fail-closed and, in turn, offer incomplete protection. Additionally, shorter-lived certificates will decrease the impact of unexpected Certificate Transparency Log disqualifications.

If you measure from the surrounding area, the Mauna Kea is higher than Mt. Everest.

even more secure with the 90 days policy.

[-] cron@feddit.org 7 points 4 days ago

IMO, sticking to manual processes that are error-prone is a waste of money and not a sign of a honest business.

Letsencrypt issues wildcard certificates. This is however more complicated to setup.

[-] cron@feddit.org 53 points 4 days ago

AFAIK, the only reason not to use Letsencrypt are when you are not able to automate the process to change the certificate.

As the paid certificates are valid for 12 month, you have to change them less often than a letsencrypt certificate.

At work, we pay something like 30-50€ for a certificate for a year. As changing certificates costs, it is more economical to buy a certificate.

But generally, it is best to use letsencrypt when you can automate the process (e.g. with nginx).

As for the question of trust: The process of issuing certificates is done in a way that the certificate authority never has access to your private key. You don't trust the CA with anything (except your payment data maybe).

At least for me, this works out of the box.

Some requirements:

  • All the devices need to be on the same network
  • DNS needs to work or you have to use IP adresses for connecting. I've configured local DNS on my router.

I have both done pentests and received pentest reports. My observation is that the perceived severity often varies between the tester and the customer.

Reason for this meme is that some ubisoft titles are shipped with a broken version of ubisoft connect launcher. Installing these games is only possible by running the installer for the launcher again via protontricks.

This is the major release of Cemu 2.1 with a cumulative changelog which includes the changes from all 93 experimental releases since Cemu 2.0.

This release also is the first release of Cemu on Linux that is not marked as experimental.

The release was a few days ago, I didn't notice until today.

Sadly, the support for passkeys is still lacking.

Interestingly, the firewall got overload by the number of UDP packets and not by the bandwidth of traffic. See UDP Flooding on Wikipedia.
