I have daily Borg backups held for at least one year but the problem is that the issue came out at least two weeks ago and nobody noticed. It's better to have nothing (customer gets error page when viewing useless survey that nobody is watching) rather to restore such a old backup (everyone loses 2-4 weeks of data)

I like to use it on my 4k monitor, the super tiny buttons make me super nostalgic

It was never Foss

It's now source available

They're releasing a new version every two month or so and dropping them rapidly from support, pinning it with a tag means that in 12 months the install would be exploitable.

Now, I did directly to production because this is low priority stuff, but it would have happened even with a testing stage. I would have never noticed that the forms apps was disabled, the system disabled it without any notification.

You would expect that an official app supports the latest release, no?

This wasn't an app released by a nobody in their free time, this is a main feature heavily advertised in their blog. Look by yourself:

https://nextcloud.com/blog/nextcloud-forms-to-keep-your-surveys-private/

It's not unreasonable to get pissed when 6 months after that blog post it doesn't support the latest release anymore.

I wiped a whole drive (luckily it was filled with a redundant backup) with the docker image, as the behavior was (or still is, don't know if it was fixed) to rm -rf . and replace with fresh stuff if occ isn't found. So in the docker compose I accidentally mistyped the wrong volume as /mnt/disk2 instead of /mnt/disk3 and it erased it

Yes no staging because it's something used at most by 2 concurrent users, we were ok with 95% reliability (we discovered it was disabled after at least two weeks lol)

Otherwise we would just have signed up to one of the many cloud forms sites at $100/year

Backups daily but it's unthinkable to revert something like nextcloud to a months old one

Subscribed to both newsletter and RSS feed to know about issues (the command to update the docker images isn't automated but manually issued). The maintainer of the forms app is nextcloud itself so any incompatibility should have been written in red bold characters in the blog posts and newsletter.

Stealing, without the quotation marks. If you copy something and profit off it without crediting, compensating or asking permission to who paid for it, it's stealing. We can't downplay it as "but they just downloaded 700k hours of videos and 200k pirated books for training a simple model that they're charging users $20 a month, what's the issue"

If you copy something for personal enjoyment without profiting from it, then it's not stealing.

I was expecting something like $15 to deter script kiddies that are following outdated/misleading/incomplete YouTube flashing tutorials and will end with a brick but $200????

It's a giant "FUCK YOU" to the paying customer. If it was me, I'd flip the phone on eBay and never ever buy anything from Asus anymore

I feel it's just a side effect of them trying to block ai companies stealing large amounts of videos for training models. They see too many downloads from a datacenter IP address and require user login to continue

Openai's whisper often recognizes mangled words as "please like and subscribe" so they're actively stealing videos and their subs (the manually created ones by companies like "caption+ by js", which creators paid hundreds of dollars to make, not the free ones made by Google automatic transcriber or whisper itself) to improve their models so they can make profit

Not only invidious I guess, they want the user to login when too many videos has been watched on an IP address. So also web browsers on a VPN for example

You mean the one that used to be called tomato? (Forgot how it's called now)

It never gave me any image that was bigger than 1000 pixel in width. I could get a very similar result with the Google images thumbnail + waifu2x

I never had them working, the result that they were giving was a very low quality image. Like if they just downloaded the free thumbnail and passed it through waifu2x
