I mean, what you call 'rant' is what I call 'the whole point of that blog post', but sure 😂

Got an email from Hetzner.
'Update on our pricing'
Long and extensive text about how the market is evolving and things are getting more expensive and how they're genuinely sorry and and and that I skip past after the first three or so sentences to just figure out how much they're bumping things by.
€1.27/month
😂
No sweat Hetzner. But this kind of information? That's why I love you guys.

I use keepassxc on my laptop, which is synced using nextcloud to my phone. There, I use keepassdx which is able to read the same files.

Since it was a birthday present I don't know how much it cost at the time, but I can say that
- my parents and my 4 siblings all put money together to pay for it, so it wasn't cheap, and
- whatever the price was, it was worth it given the number of years I've gotten out of it.

My Festina.
I got this as a birthday present for my 25th birthday. I'm 47 now. It still works perfectly, though it's badly in need of a service; its battery lived for about two years when I first got it, now it needs replacement after six months.
I've swam with it, dropped it, did all kinds of things to it, and it has survived all that and more.

A friend once told me a story of a guy who suddenly passed away of a heart attack while working on an overhaul of one of his customers' networks and websites. He'd moved things to his own servers while reinstalling the customer's kit, then when he passed away and his next of kin stopped paying the bills for the server, suddenly the customer's entire network stopped working.

The very word "bipartisan", to me, shows everything that is wrong with US politics. There are far more opinions than just two, but simply because your political system, practically, only allows two parties that matter, the very stupid idea that there are only two valid opinions has been normalised.
You guys need to get rid of FPTP, but I guess that's too far of a goal...

*Thank* you.
Not too long ago, I was having a conversation about US politics with someone. He at one point out right said, "you don't like Trump, so I'll assume you like Biden", and I was like, what. How does my disliking one person imply even an opinion about the other?
I mean, do I think Biden was a better President than Trump? Sure. But that doesn't mean I like the guy.

Not too bad. For me it's "everything except day one of OSDEM, and all of FOSDEM 2020 and FOSDEM 2023".
The first because I didn't realise what I was going to be missing, the second because I was getting married that month, and the third because I couldn't take time off.
Now that I'm stepping down from organising I will probably start missing more though...

The last time I could have someone sleep in that office for FOSDEM was in 2012, as that year the landlord passed away and our rent was not renewed.
I vaguely remember it was not that year that you slept there though. Maybe 2008?
As to the buildings, https://FOSDEM.org/2026/archives has links to all the older, archived FOSDEM sites, you could look at the schedules and see which one meets the building usage you remember?

Even if that's the case, data at rest encrypted five to ten years from now needs encryption keys that are secure 10 to 20 years from that point.
Given how glacially slow it is to update encryption protocols and to verify that the algorithms are safe, it makes sense to rather be too soon than too late.
