    Wearing a seatbelt in a moving vehicle does not magically prevent all deaths upon an accident. Do you recommend we should stop wearing seatbelts?

    If there are measures in place that reduce the danger of something happening, it’s not wise to remove them just because they’re not 100% effective.

    I don’t recommend hosting a Lemmy just for yourself. How federation currently works is it mirrors EVERYTHING. Your disk will be filled up with images you never even view and you put yourself at risk of having illegal imagery on your machine if you don’t actively keep up with which instances you must ban.

    OP’s security concern is valid. Different CAs may differ in the challenges used to verify you to be the domain owner. Using something that you could crack may lead to an attacker’s public key being certified instead.

    This could for example be the case with HTTPS verification (place a file with a specific content accessible through your URL) if the website has lacking input sanitization and/or creates files with the user’s input at an unfortunate location that collides with the challenge.

    This attack vector might be far-fetched, but there can certainly be differences between different signing authorities.

    I’m 300 hours into factorio without launching a rocket. The factory must grow and I want to see full belts of every item in the game. I also bought satisfactory way back and had a lot of fun with it for like 70 hours but then just stopped. A few days ago I had just started it back up and made a new world. Now I hear the announcement about 1.0. Maybe it’s worth revisiting. I like the build system in satisfactory (in particular the conveyor belts) in comparison to factorio, but early game is very grindy with the biomass generators and all.
