That’s true! I supposed it would be more precise to say that all processes are files loaded to memory, but not all files loaded to memory are processes. Sort of like the whole arachnids / spiders situation.

I’d call that a file loaded to memory
whatwhatwhatwhat@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•With the recent happenings with Synology/Plex, I’ve decided it’s time to make the move and up my self-hosting game, just need some input from the veterans to solidify my plan and put it into action.English32·2 months agoAs I assume most of you are aware
I most certainly was not! After some searching, I found an article about Synology’s new restrictions on which hard drives can be used in Synology’s NASs.
A few important notes:
- This is a completely bullshit decision on Synology’s part. Unacceptable, and a total overreach.
- This only applies to new DiskStation/RackStation models, so if you already have yours, you should be fine — as far as I can tell.
- The internet has responded with a “hack” already: https://github.com/007revad/Synology_HDD_db?utm_source=syndication&pubDate=20250505
A prediction: This is a scream test. Within a month, Synology will walk this back. They’ll make some excuse about it taking time to test other hard drive brands for compatibility. They’ll claim that they never intended to prevent you from using whatever hard drives you want, that they just needed to make 100% sure everything was perfect first, and that they always had your best interests at heart.
This will all be a lie, of course. The real plan is to measure how loud their biggest customers scream about this change. And then, maybe a year or two from now, they’ll quietly update a user agreement or a warranty document to reduce coverage for NASs that use third-party hard drives. Maybe they’ll add some extra “safety features” to DSM for third-party hard drives (of course with the intention of keeping you safe) that will cause a “minor” performance hit.
I’m sure that if you subscribe to DSM Premium for a reasonable monthly fee, all of your problems will be solved.
whatwhatwhatwhat@lemmy.worldto Sysadmin@lemmy.world•Are there any major/legit services that use SendGrid/Twilio?2·2 months agoFair enough! Maybe if enough organizations follow suit, they’ll be forced to stop ignoring their service being used by spammers and scammers.
Right now they have no incentive to stop abuse on their platform, because they’re making money off of that abuse too. It’s bullshit.

whatwhatwhatwhat@lemmy.worldto Sysadmin@lemmy.world•Are there any major/legit services that use SendGrid/Twilio?6·2 months agoSendGrid is a very popular platform for programmatic email, as is the original Twilio for programmatic SMS. They have a very solid API and integrations, so are often a go-to for developers who want to offload the work of sending emails (account registration, notifications, password reset, order confirmation) and SMS (verification codes, etc).
Unfortunately Twilio (and thus SendGrid) is also used heavily for “marketing”, which in turn means they’re great for spammers too.
Still, I would never recommend IP blocking one of the largest programmatic email senders in the world. Inevitably your end users are going to miss something important, and while you may have saved them from hundreds of spam messages for every one important thing that they end up missing, we both know what they’re going to remember at the end of the day.
Edit: Realized I never answered your actual question. Here is a list of companies Twilio claims to provide email services for: https://customers.twilio.com/en-us/sendgrid

It makes no sense.2·3 months agoI mean, it’s pretty easy to see “JD Vance” and a word that looks strikingly similar to “Trump”, and infer the meaning of that word to be some sort of a joke version of “Trump”.
I didn’t get the reference, but I do have basic reading comprehension.

I’ve seen a lot of reporting about the more “conservative” ideologies growing in several EU countries as well. It’s so disheartening. The whole movement is just convincing average people to vote/protest/etc against their own best interests, and oh by the way, education is bad too so don’t get educated or you might see through the charade!
The lack of urgency here is unbearable. How many more kids will die over this one month?
