I’m reading this post as a well-intended PSA for those who might not know that their computers keep logs, and I appreciate the poster for that. But also I got a laugh from it sounding kind of like this:
If you want to avoid providing incriminating evidence during a possible police interrogation, you must disable your brain’s long-term memory functions by lobotomizing yourself
Ye Vagabonds are on a US tour right now, and I’m so excited to see them I’ve been listening to them nonstop. A lovely Irish folk music duo of two brothers.

Your email is the root of your digital identity, and pretty much everything in your digital life is tied to it. If your email is provided by Big Email, they own your digital identity and it exists at their whim, with no recourse if it gets taken away, compromised, or abused.
If you own your domain and pay for mail hosting, you can at least move your email between providers if something goes wrong, and have some recourse with those providers since you’re a customer instead of a product.
You should only enter a password once to log in, so maybe we just use our machines 1000x more than other people?

Podman/docker leave behind old images, image layers, and containers that need to be cleaned up occasionally. podman system prune will do so.
If 8TB was taken up quickly or unexpectedly, it might be something like a container failing to start and being recreated over and over, leaving each failed container behind as it goes. podman ps --all will list all containers, running or stopped. Before doing the system prune run that and podman image ls --all to see if anything looks amiss.
Good opsec, really.

“Jo March becomes god, Massachusetts is consumed by horrors beyond human comprehension, and everyone dies”
Bakker’s Second Apocalypse to Little Women was a pretty jarring transition already…
This quote from your link on the main client e2ee issues captures the zeitgeist of modern tech so beautifully:
