No.
Users that do not decrypt their storage lose their storage permanently.
Users that decrypt their storage get to continue to use it, but it isn't not encrypted.

No encryption is broken.
Users are swapping convenience for privacy. (Or privacy for convenience? Whichever way that is).

Broken implies it is unusable or useless. As in "Apples encryption is unusable".
This is not the case. It's not broken. Users are given the option to remove the encryption to be able to continue to use the storage.

So you have local DNS set up?
If you ping (or dig) speed.mydomain.local, does it resolve the same address as local_ip?
Considering you are accessing local_ip:3000 and the domain on port 443, there is clearly a firewall somewhere redirecting packets or a reverse proxy on the domain but not on local_ip:3000

Follow the port chain, forwarding, proxying etc. One of those will be bottlenecking. Then figure out why

Edit:
Just because your ISP speed is 100mbps and you are seeing 500mbps, doesn't mean the connection isn't hairpinning through your router via it's public IP (as in, the traffic never leaves your router, but still goes through it)

You have my sympathy, but not my compassion.

My compassion ran out when America continued to embrace - even celebrate - right wing rule

When you solve the issue, take a pause and then walk back the problem and how to fix it.
If it's a "forgot where something was", take a pause then start with "sorry bout that, it's this...".

Own the mistake, learn from it, let others learn from it. But dont waste everyone's time

Shaping metal would need a more substantial central bearing, I assume.
Unless the bearings are on some sort of plates that lock into the 4 holes seen

Stephen King dark tower?
No. Not western, no guns, no science, not really horror.

WoT is the whole "forgotten/suppressed magic, 'the one', forces of long imprisoned evil" kinda fantasy, along with a rise to power, world politics, massive battles, adventure, and - I guess - romance.
Has a lot of the tropes, but carves a great story and adventure.
I genuinely recommend it. I've read it 3 times, and I enjoy the TV series.

It's a 15 book epic fantasy, with the last 3 books written by Brandon Sanderson according to (deceased, 2007) Robert Jordans notes.

It's good.
It has it's faults, Robert Jordans writing has it's faults.
But it is good, a great story, a great adventure, a great over-arching story. And 15 books long, makes it great read to sink into and enjoy.

Yeh, venting on the internet helps. And it's always great when you actually connect with someone.

I always wish I'd learned a trade. Electrician, plumber or tiler. Get an apprenticeship, learn a trade, be a sole trader, do something physical that's always in demand.
Plenty out there to do, and it's ok to mourn your last job (being a student/doctorate is a job).
Connect with old friends and family. Meet some new people. Somebody will be looking for someone smart and compassionate

Nice.
With the tongue in cheek context, I understand your comment more: DEI (as an idea & movement) blossomed under trumps first term, because of the bullshit he caused and the reaction of the public.
The government had actual civil servants (as opposed to appointed oppressors or whatever), and reacted in a sensible way.

But yeh, the damage being done to people is unimaginable. People's entire careers are being deleted from public records because they are a woman in STEM, or because they are the wrong colour, or because they don't fit Christians opinion of normal. It's fucked up

I'd love to believe it.
I can't find anything backing this up.
The has become a wall of text. Sorry.


1st half of this post is refuting "trump defined DEI". I would live to be proved wrong on this, but it seems like something that happened during trump and was defined by Biden.
2nd half is more positive.


1st half...

Mostly sourced from https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diversity,_equity,_and_inclusion ( https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diversity,_equity,_and_inclusion incase the commas fuck up formatting).

I don't know when DEI actually became the official term. Probably during the Biden administration .
According to wiki, however, DEI has been around since the 60s, in principle.

Executive Orders that first mention "equity" along side diversity and inclusion seems to be https://en.m.wikisource.org/wiki/Executive_Order_13583 an Obama EO.

The best I can find relating to what you say is along the lines of this:
https://www.britannica.com/topic/diversity-equity-and-inclusion-programs

Basically, government bodies using their autonomy to enact DEI policies in response to #MeToo, #BlackLivesMatter, George Floyd, and lots of other public sentiment & unrest. However nothing official at the government level of "DEI".
Essentially, trump was asleep at the wheel with COVID and civil unrest, did fuck all (or encouraged civil unrest), and government bodies (which still had autonomy) enacted policies inline with the population.

So, what constitutes DEI?
What the right is defining it as? What it has been since the 60s? What Biden enacted? What the government bodies enacted during sleepy trump?


The 2nd half:

Being against DEI is like being against Antifa, or declaring Antifa a terrorist organisation. It's not really a thing.
DEI is the awareness that previous centuries of discrimination no longer applies.
DEI isn't a tangible thing. It's humanity.
It didn't happen during trump's first term. But it did progress.
It didn't happen during Bidens term. But it did progress.
That is humanity. Humanity progresses. Humanity is love, equality and freedom for all.


And a bit more ideologically....

Progress in the next 4 years is gonna be slow.
But everyone has worked on this before. It's a hiatus. It will come back, and will be easier and more streamlined than before. Loads of people are backing up data, so it can be (relatively) easily restored. None of this has to be worked out again, nothing shared on the internet can truly die, ideas can't be killed.
It's gonna be 4 years of shit.
Hopefully Americans learn, and don't vote in more conservatives.
...
...
Hopefully Americans get a chance to vote in another party.

Edit: typo, equality not equity
