As if China and Russia didn’t have satellites. They just don’t want to admit they’ve stepped into deep doodoo, so the general public must not find out.

They never mention the word latency even once. It’s a delay line SAM and speed of light in glass is some 200000 km/s. This is hard drive latency.

Your AWS backups are not backups.

That’s because these are not backups. With backups you still have your data even if the cloud provider has gone away.

Most devs are ops-tarded.

No, they had only snapshots. Which is not a backup. They were lucky support could restore the data which by rights should have been wiped.

“and database snapshots that Grigorev had counted on as backups” – yes, this is exactly how you run “production”.

Couldn’t happen to nicer guys. Godspeed.

Doesn’t render.

Truly open/libre systems will have to be RISCV. They don’t have to be the fastest.

It would be nice to see hardware smugglers.

They are extremely hostile to open source.

When general computing is outlawed, only outlaws will have general computers.

I’ll meet you in the digital underground, netizen.

You can build browsers from source. And import open hardware from China. RISCV is getting close to usable, these days.

There are many distros. And you can build kernels from source.

Look at protectli, there are equivalent devices on aliexpress if too expensive. If you’re particular about open source, try finding ones with openboot.

Use a PoE switch, or a power injector for AP. If open source, OpenWRT APs.

There is no workaround for proprietary platforms other than stopping using them.

I understood OP already has one.

Motorola, yes, but that’s 2027, or thereabouts. As a stop-gap, there’s Lineage OS.

And why would not these be also banned shortly thereafter?

Install Graphene OS on your Pixel.
