NFSv3 (udp, stateless) was always as reliable as the network infra under Linux, I found. NFSv4 made things a bit more complicated.
You don't want any NAT / stateful connection tracking in the network path (anything that could hiccup and forget), and wired connections only for permanent storage mounts, of course.
I now ask the Internet for an animated gif of him dancing by himself at McDonalds.
Locked? Won't somebody think of the cupcakes?!

Estimate it. As I clearly said, it is mostly about increasing transparency, for a greater understanding and better policy tomorrow. Turn those that hide their wealth from the tax authorities into criminals, while making compliance easy and cheap/mostly free.
Some countries now require you to pay a yearly future-tax-contribution on financial investments, which is then corrected at time of sale (eg. potential for a tax refund after selling a stock after it had a very bad year). Good or bad, I don't know.
And those unrealized gains, saved for a rainy day in an art safe in switzerland, or in some special financial scheme that effectively hides/reinvests any profits without triggering the tax obligation?
There is something to an extremely low-percentage wealth tax that kicks in only at an insane amount of wealth. It could introduce the obligation to track and report individual wealth in a standard way, at the risk of a significant financial penalty, helping to bring much needed transparency, which in turn can help shape future laws and policy.
Hah. I hadn't seen that article / heard of the theory, but as far as crackpot theories/hypotheses go, it's one of the more likely (edit: to come about). I doubt it's anywhere near the majority yet, personally.
It was already obvious that propaganda news articles (on obscure websites) had orchestrated releases and promotion on social media, in a massive circle jerk, and I assumed machine generated/assisted content was involved. Then ChatGPT hit the headlines and we all had the power.
Whose deepfake influencers do you "trust" more? US, China, russia and a few lesser players are already working to control the information space / spread propaganda (note: not necessarily/always lies, but there is typically a focus or spin) far and wide.
We know people are highly influenced by propaganda (some more than others, but all of us are) and that quantity and repetition plays a role. Since this is now an established battlefield, I'd like our (western) defences to be strong.
It has potential for abuse, certainly. That's par for the course. There is also the potential for it to be used to debunk fake news, shock people out of false beliefs, and help reconnect people to reality. Let's see how this plays out. popcorn time
How will running a CA limit access? eg. Do you want to do client side cert validation? That sounds like an overcomplication. Also not ideal to run a CA (have signing keys) on the proxy server.
It's a trade off. "Free services" typically require more leg work and can come with legal or security risks. I used to have a great XBMC & torrenting setup years ago. I spent significant time customizing it and various plugins, extending scripts etc. I had fun, and took necessary precautions. Millions wouldn't. Some are happy to pay €9/month to another evil corp for convenience (where it works for them).
Oh, they do have an plan with ads. You can't really complain about ads if that is what you subscribed to, I guess. The price difference is €6 vs €9/month in Germany, btw.
The no browser support on phones kind of sucks though.
Obsidian.md has mobile versions, apparently. Whether there is a free sync feature for the ios version will be a Q.
