tekkWatching a security talk that points out old computer hyperbole when the national enquirer said that hackers could turn your computer into a bomb. Fails to mention that because everyone uses laptops these days they totally *could* turn your computer into a bomb by fucking with that. Course battery firmware *should* stop it, but are firmware devs ever trustworthy?
@bob (I got that info from Jim Sterling) per the same source, what you have to do at this point, apparently, is 1: upload it as...private, I think, to make sure you don't get copyright'd for 48 hours or so. Then you change it from private to public and unlisted, which lets you know if the ad friendly bot hates you. After another 48 there you can release the video. Something like that.
@bob Youtube is also cracking down on doing anything *but* going through youtube now. You're no longer allowed to link to your patreon in your end cards unless youtube's allowed to play ads on your video.
MAGIT WORKED PERFECTLY. I was able to manage my git repo as if it were local, and tramp did the magic needed to make sure that the remote git got the calls to it, not a local one.
This is one of those "this can't possibly work" moments. I was working on #up , and since I'm at the point where I'm trying to get federation to work all of the up work has to be on my server, Q, to make sure it can talk to my server. To maintain my sanity, I use a local emacs and edit over TRAMP, which lets me edit transparently over SSH. Curious, I tried to do M-x magit-status (git client) while I was working on a *remote* file.
