The security model skews towards convenience versus absolute security, meaning automation is it’s goal, not perfect security. They use a reasonable amount of security to protect unauthorized access, meaning untrusted apps can’t access keys by default, and container apps only have selective access. AppArmor is supposed to be handling some DBUS interactions in the background to prevent any old app from grabbing everything, but again, automation is the purpose here.
If you don’t have a reasonably trusted system, then sure, it’s about as secure as any other password manager. I remember reading some time ago there was a plan to make a global framework for trusted application.accessnto things like this, but it was shot down for being “oppressive” in the same way as Microsoft’s trust app mess.
Ideally there would be an advanced mode where each app is granted access to specific keys, and that interaction is controlled by the user. This would never be the default obviously as the user interaction would be an insane annoyance to people who don’t care.

Technology@lemmy.world•Arch Linux's AUR Sees More Than 400 Packages Compromised With MalwareEnglish
2 daysIt’s enough to build a pattern match and scan against it being elsewhere. Surely they did at least much to find all these packages with malware.

Technology@lemmy.world•Google To Pay SpaceX $920 Million Per Month For Massive AI Compute PowerEnglish
7 daysThe currently existing infrastructure for standard datacenters with normal capacity for heating and cooling are just fine for basic compute and storage.
All the new outfits builds are being built very specifically for inference compute, which they are only doing because it’s less hassle than retrofitting existing facilities, and they think they can trick/screw taxpayers into footing the bill if new facilities are built.
It’s a scam from top to bottom.

In which case, an app on a phone is still much easier. Plenty of privacy-respecting apps out there that handle wake words, STT, and IFTTT actions. Just seems a much easier route than trying to shoehorn it via HA when that’s not even it’s general use-case.

A phone seems like an easier solution, but there are VOIP integrations for HA, as well as ways to stream audio through the media player to different devices. I’m not aware of any integration that specifically does paging as you describe, but it would be easy to do with an esp32 board with a speaker.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Is 35 extents per file too much fragmentation for btrfs?
13 daysI don’t think it could possibly be measured because it’s something like: (file size ÷ block size) * num_writes
So it entire depends on the types of files, how often you’re utilizing writes to disk…etc. I just wouldn’t worry about it. If you REALLY want to estimate the tax: use iostat to check the number of writes on the drive in the last 24 hours, THEN enable online defrag and check it again in 24 hours. See what the difference is.
It really doesn’t matter for HDD though. Barely probably matters for SSD.



Look up elsewhere about the reputation Brother has with compatibility. Personal experience: never fails. That’s their jam.
