[1376.34 --> 1381.94] So the idea behind this challenge is to do exactly what we've just done, you know, pick a service. |
[1381.94 --> 1385.64] In this case, it was Google as a whole, but let's take Maps as an example. |
[1386.20 --> 1388.94] Discuss what would be required to drop that service. |
[1389.48 --> 1394.80] Figure out in the intervening two weeks some options we could use to try and replace it with. |
[1394.80 --> 1401.38] And then in the following episode, repeat that cycle, pick a new service and report back on how the old one went. |
[1401.80 --> 1405.98] I mean, I kind of feel like if I was going to do it, I could try Maps while I'm on the road. |
[1406.12 --> 1410.76] Like, this is an opportunity to try alternative mapping and routing. |
[1410.86 --> 1419.02] I know there's a few apps I could give a go, so maybe I'll try just, this is going to be crazy, but while I'm on the road trip, I'll try for the next two weeks not to use Google Maps. |
[1419.28 --> 1420.08] See how that goes. |
[1420.32 --> 1420.94] Go for it, yeah. |
[1420.94 --> 1423.64] I have a question about your choices of alternatives. |
[1423.64 --> 1431.26] Will you try to make them free and open source or just try to be an equivalent replacement? |
[1431.56 --> 1432.54] What's the name of the show, Brent? |
[1433.92 --> 1438.00] I'm thinking, like, for mapping, I don't know what would be even equivalent, right? |
[1438.12 --> 1440.38] So then I think it's, like, not so much equivalent. |
[1440.50 --> 1441.84] It's about just core functionality. |
[1442.18 --> 1443.20] There's always MapQuest. |
[1443.50 --> 1447.86] Yeah, and I feel like switching to Google Search to look things up isn't an alternative that I can accept either. |
[1448.12 --> 1449.52] So I'll have to give it some thought. |
[1449.62 --> 1450.66] I will have to give it some thought. |
[1450.66 --> 1458.64] I'm going to look into a couple of different apps for it, and I'm also going to look into how Apple Maps works and see what the privacy situation is there, because that's also already on my device. |
[1459.06 --> 1460.06] That's a factor, too. |
[1460.62 --> 1461.52] It's like you're saying. |
[1461.68 --> 1465.04] I love your point about you could just reduce your footprint at Google. |
[1465.72 --> 1468.10] If that's the goal, I think that's something I could get behind. |
[1468.78 --> 1472.76] But it doesn't necessarily mean I want to increase my footprint somewhere else, right? |
[1472.76 --> 1474.60] So that's the math I'm going to have to do. |
[1474.92 --> 1481.24] I don't mind taking two steps forward and one step back with this over the next few years, because that's how long I genuinely think it will take. |
[1481.62 --> 1482.46] I just worry. |
[1482.58 --> 1492.68] You know, you see people like Apple who were genuinely supposed to be the privacy-first people rolling out stuff like this, CSAM protections. |
[1492.68 --> 1496.72] And you just think, yeah, it's never going to get any better. |
[1497.02 --> 1498.56] It's up to me to take control. |
[1498.70 --> 1500.62] It's up to me to host this stuff. |
[1500.80 --> 1507.00] And if I, you know, take my daughter, for example, I think there's one photograph of her on Facebook. |
[1507.32 --> 1509.14] One in the last six months. |
[1509.34 --> 1511.34] And I want to keep it as low as that. |
[1511.42 --> 1512.22] One every six months. |
[1512.32 --> 1516.32] I mean, why does Facebook need all of that data to mine on her? |
[1516.32 --> 1518.30] So it's not her choice. |
[1518.38 --> 1520.80] She can't make that choice yet because she's six months old, you know. |
[1521.04 --> 1525.64] When she's old enough to make that choice for herself and understand the implications, then fair enough. |
[1525.78 --> 1529.12] But it's not really my place to share her pictures everywhere, is it? |
[1530.88 --> 1532.96] Leno.com slash SSH. |
[1533.04 --> 1536.24] Go there to get $100 in 60-day credit on a new account. |
[1536.32 --> 1538.56] And you go there to support this here podcast. |
[1539.12 --> 1545.88] You know, this show is made possible independent content like this by our listeners taking advantage of our sponsor's offer. |
[1545.88 --> 1549.18] And Linode is one that we can enthusiastically endorse. |
[1549.82 --> 1550.26] We use it. |
[1550.38 --> 1551.00] We love it. |
[1551.10 --> 1554.62] It is powering our live tracker right now as we go down the road. |
[1555.12 --> 1558.56] Linode started in 2003 as one of the very first companies in cloud computing. |
[1559.08 --> 1560.68] You know, that was 18 years ago. |
[1561.98 --> 1563.42] That's like a whole other internet. |
[1563.52 --> 1565.14] And the entire time, they've stayed competitive. |
[1565.58 --> 1571.54] They've increased the capabilities, the performance, the smooth slickness of the dashboard. |
[1572.00 --> 1574.08] Over time, they became their own ISP. |
[1574.08 --> 1576.78] They've built out to 11 data centers around the world. |
[1577.26 --> 1578.66] Super crazy fast systems. |
[1578.78 --> 1582.90] They're always investing in the disk I.O., in the CPUs, in the network connections. |
[1583.02 --> 1587.40] And now, they've got nearly a million customers and businesses around the globe. |
[1587.52 --> 1590.20] But yet, Linode's core focus remains. |
[1590.56 --> 1596.50] They're making cloud computing simple, affordable, and really accessible to all of us. |
[1596.56 --> 1599.76] If you're a sysadmin that's been doing this for years, or if you've never set up a server, |
[1599.76 --> 1601.64] you can get started at Linode. |
[1602.06 --> 1607.82] And I think that focus has really led to the best-in-class dashboard, speed, and more importantly, |
[1608.00 --> 1608.76] customer service. |
[1608.76 --> 1611.74] When you do need it, they've got the very best in the business. |
[1612.12 --> 1615.94] And then, as you start to use Linode, or something you could use that $100 credit to |
[1615.94 --> 1620.58] check out, is some of their nice features, like the S3-compatible object storage. |
[1621.00 --> 1625.14] Think about all of the software, like the backup software you have, or different ways you can |
[1625.14 --> 1629.52] mount file systems that support S3-compatible object storage. |
[1629.80 --> 1632.94] Start thinking about what you could do with that, not even from a server standpoint, but |
[1632.94 --> 1635.06] just a cloud storage standpoint that you control. |
[1635.18 --> 1637.00] You encrypt, and then you upload. |
[1637.40 --> 1638.62] Plus, they have cloud firewalls. |
[1638.66 --> 1641.00] VLAN support a very powerful DNS manager. |
[1641.44 --> 1642.76] Block storage as well. |
[1643.56 --> 1645.50] I know some of you still prefer the traditional disk. |
[1645.56 --> 1646.12] They've got that. |
[1646.12 --> 1652.68] And they also support things like Terraform and Kubernetes, if that's the direction you're |
[1652.68 --> 1652.86] going. |
[1652.86 --> 1657.56] They got all of that, and you combine that with the fact that you can get $100 and support |
[1657.56 --> 1658.58] the self-hosted podcast. |
[1659.24 --> 1662.90] Well, what kind of maniac wouldn't go to linode.com slash SSH? |
[1663.26 --> 1667.06] Get that $100 60-day credit on your new account, and you support the show. |
[1667.16 --> 1672.34] And by the way, if you're coming to our Denver meetup next week, Linode will be there. |
[1672.42 --> 1676.24] They're going to be giving out prizes, Linode credit, raspberry pies. |
[1676.42 --> 1680.58] I mean, Linode is going all in on our road trip, and they're helping support it. |
[1680.82 --> 1681.32] It's great. |
[1681.32 --> 1682.62] And we'd love to see you at the meetup. |
[1683.02 --> 1688.22] That's linode.com slash SSH to get $100 in 60-day credit on a new account and to support |
[1688.22 --> 1688.62] the show. |
[1689.18 --> 1691.24] Linode.com slash SSH. |
[1692.92 --> 1697.84] I know you've got this whole road trip prep ritual where you update things a couple of |
[1697.84 --> 1701.66] nights before in critical systems the week before and all this kind of stuff. |
[1701.66 --> 1703.56] What did you upgrade this time? |
[1704.08 --> 1705.54] You are correct. |
[1705.68 --> 1707.40] And yes, I did do some updates. |
[1709.04 --> 1713.84] This time, you know what I wanted to do is I wanted to try out the new PyHole because I |
[1713.84 --> 1714.68] was sniffing around. |
