I see, thank you!

I think your opinion is disrespectful towards artists. It implies that they don't deserve to be compensated for their work and consequently that their profession is less worthy. Why art specifically? What sets their product apart from other goods?

I know this, I've worked on LLMs and other neural networks so I was wondering what kind of difference you could make out. Humans do the same thing, they just have more neurons and use more sophisticated training modes and activation mechanisms as well as propagation patterns.

So what I'm saying is that you can't tie intelligence to the fundamental mechanism because it's the same, only humans are more developed. And maturity on the other hand is a highly subjective and arbitrary criterion—when is the system mature enough to be considered intelligent?

Your new setup is specifically the kind of thing SSH was built for. So yes it is secure in your scenario if your description matches your actual network setup.

The biggest threat to SSH is a mitm if you don't verify your peer's identity properly, so you might accidentally connect directly to the hub through SSH, and the hub then either impersonates your intended target or (if able to) connects to it and bridges the connection while eavesdropping. For this reason you should verify fingerprints or deploy certificates if you're paranoid.

Check out Hetzner storage boxes as a potential BackBlaze replacement. You can save a dollar or two per month and get WebDav, SSH and SMB-based access with free traffic.

Verstehe—danke. Ja macht Sinn, wenn man im Prinzip eher archivieren möchte als ein inkrementelles Offsite-Backup zu verwalten. Leider sind die Egress-Kosten bei Amazon recht hoch, also regelmäßiges Updaten eines Backup-Repositories geht damit kaum. Im Prinzip am besten einfach nur ab und zu was hinzufügen und sonst nicht anfassen.

Ist das denn so viel billiger als einfach ein Pay-As-You-Go bei Wasabi beispielsweise oder nem anderem hot storage cloud provider wie rsync.net oder Backblaze? Vorteil ist, dass du dort regelmäßiger dein Backup updaten kannst. Mit sowas wie rclone geht das dann auch inkrementell, und wenn du restic und dann rclone im size-only mode benutzt sogar recht flott.

Randnotiz: Bei Wasabi und rsync.net ist der Zugriff auf deine Daten auch kostenlos.

But it does understand it since it's able to answer arbitrary questions, no?

+1 for Lazygit. It doesn't cover all of my needs so I have to use the CLI for a few small things, but for 99% of your typical git usage this tool is such a gift.

Weird scheme but at least high number good.

Like, never ever? Could I turn off my main device for a month and continue using the desktop app? Can I even register new accounts on the desktop app?

Being centralized isn't the only reason, but basically yes. The concept behind the protocol is simpler because your decryption keys only ever live on one device. You don't really have the entire trust (and key sharing) model for devices that Matrix has. Signal's desktop app works very similarly to WhatsApp where your single main device needs to be connected at least intermittently for "guest" sessions to be able to send and receive messages. I haven't used Signal desktop though, that was just the impression I got from it. Would make sense though because WhatsApp is allegedly borrowing from Signal's protocol quite a bit.
