Can you expand on the Scaleway comment? Would be interested in the details. Also aren't their data centres all in the Paris area? Do they have any geo-redundancy?
paris, amsterdam, warsaw and I think they are launching or have launched recently in other places

> I wonder if there will ever come a day where the average HN user actually understands how normal people use technology. Well, I wouldn't say I don't understand it. If someone uses their smartphone as a hammer, regularly break it and regularly buy a new smartphone, I understand what they are doing. I just don't understand why they are doing it, I guess? In this case, the post says that it's a conversion killer. So p…
Both available choices "share the information with Google" for most people. The majority of email account creations use a Gmail or Google Workspace address, so Google gets the information either way, and in Europe most use Android so can't sign in with Apple.
I'm talking about the fact that people choose to not use the service if there is no SSO.
> Your users expect "Sign in with Google" and "Sign in with Apple." You can add email/password and passkeys, but removing social logins entirely is a conversion killer. I know this is true, but I genuinely don't understand it. I want email/password and passkey, I will always go out of my way to avoid "Sign in with ...". I just don't get why people love this.
Heard of haveibeenpwned? You'll end up there, eventually.

HP makes them, so does Dell. They cost a bit extra, but essentially the whole Federal government runs on nothing else. The difference between EU and US is that it's possible to make all components in the US, using US equipment, and so some companies do because it commands a pretty decent premium. It's not even that hard since most components (e.g. reference motherboard designs) are still designed and actually built i…

Thank you for this. I'm in Europe with an established SaaS that's been running in production for years and I've converged on a similar stack (OVHCloud instead of Hetzner). However, I've realized you can stay sovereign and independent in any jurisdiction (not just Europe) just by simplifying your stack and running a few baremetal servers in-house. Just buy a few Mac Studios and run them in-house with power supply back…

On that subject, I'd be curious to see any computer that's not mostly made in Asia.

I’m having trouble searching for this - but all the top results seem to be SEO or AI slop, so perhaps I’m just not finding them.

You'll still have your e-mail address exposed, which you may not want if it is to some random porn site. Moreover, password managers do not work if you use multiple devices for log in, which most people actually do.
I use my password manager across multiple devices daily. Apparently it has not been working without me noticing it?

You say no VMs and are using Apple hardware. Are you running this all directly on macOS?
