It’ll be rewritten in mdBook
I’ll be honest, I’m just here for the memes.

No idea. I personally didn’t like it. I felt the time based sorting was more accurate for me
I’ve been using McFly to do my history searching. It’s pretty good. I recommend changing the default sort from rank to time though
I was wondering why it was written in C++, but the FAQ already beat me to it.
Why build a new browser in C++ when safer and more modern languages are available?
Ladybird started as a component of the SerenityOS hobby project, which only allows C++. The choice of language was not so much a technical decision, but more one of personal convenience. Andreas was most comfortable with C++ when creating SerenityOS, and now we have almost half a million lines of modern C++ to maintain.
However, now that Ladybird has forked and become its own independent project, all constraints previously imposed by SerenityOS are no longer in effect. We are actively evaluating a number of alternatives and will be adding a mature successor language to the project in the near future. This process is already quite far along, and prototypes exist in multiple languages.
Glad to see they are open to using safer languages. C/C++ was great for its time, but we really need to move on from them.
To be fair, they are providing several services with it, along with the data hosting. Being verified also means you get boosted in search results, with comes with more downloads. So at least the cost can be somewhat justified. Whether it’s too much is valid for debate.
Did you mean Sozu instead of “Suzu”? I can’t find anything in “Suzu”
Why does a virtual machine platform need to add support for different kernel versions? What changes are there in the kernel that affects how it interacts with the virtual hardware?
Do HDDs noticably degrade when powered off? I’m thinking about getting one of these for cold storage backups. Also, how much of an impact does repeated power cycling have on lifespan?
Switching to Neovim is on my to-do list. What do you recommend as a good way to get up to speed?
Fairbuds: replaceable batteries
Fairerbuds: open source app
Fairestbuds: open source firmware

Update maintainer and author info. The other maintainer suddenly disappeared.
Lmao, that’s putting it lightly.
I’ve been interested in doing this, but I can’t tell why I need to login to Beeper in order to self host. I noticed their previous self-host solution did not require that.
Because of that login step, I decided to look into this other repo which uses Ansible to deploy a Matrix homeserver and the same bridges that Beeper uses. I haven’t finished it yet since there’s a lot of config and choices to make, but it seems like it’ll serve the same end goal.
Edit: lol, maybe if I read the intro, I’ll get my answer.
You can connect any† standard Matrix application service to your Beeper account without having to self-host a whole Matrix homeserver.
Still might go with the second option so that I don’t rely on their cloud services.
The best you can do is use OSS software that has been battle tested. Stuff like OpenSSH and OpenVPN are very unlikely to have backdoors or major vulnerabilities currently being exploited. If you don’t trust something to not be vulnerable, you’re best to put it behind a more robust layer of authentication and access it only by those means.
I understand that software directly and silently changing the default software can be a security issue. But it’s only because it happens silently. Does Windows allow for showing a system prompt that confirms the change to the user? If not, then that’s just plain ol’ anti-competitive. Especially with how pushy Edge and Bing can be.
I think NLPs have been less helpful for me. Like I’ll go to work and it’ll think I’m in another state (our internet uses the same IP as our headquarters, and the SSID is the same for all locations). Not sure why it can’t reject the bad guess when it sees how off it is from my GPS coordinate.
I wanna use Rust to build mobile apps so bad. I don’t really know what I want to build, but I want to use Rust to do it
I just started using Backblaze B2, switching from AWS S3. I use it through Rclone to encrypt everything before I upload it. Only $6/TB/mo and it only charges what you use. You can download up to 3x your data stored per month for free, so if you ever decide to move or you need to restore a backup, you don’t have to pay egress costs. It was the cheapest service I could find, but there may be others.
You can set price limits on your account to ensure you don’t go over too. It will alert you when you approach the limit. There are some minor costs, like pinging the API, but they are free up to a reasonable amount.
A backdoor is very distinct from a vanilla vulnerability. Heartbleed was a vulnerability, meaning the devs made a mistake in the code, introducing a method of attack. XZ was backdoored, meaning a malicious actor intentionally introduced a method by which he could exploit systems.
Both are pretty serious vulnerabilities, but a backdoor, especially introduced so high in the supply chain, would have been devastating had it not been caught so early.
RIP that one guy who relied on this bug. He’s gonna have to create a bookmark now, which will ruin his whole workflow.
That’s pretty funny! ���
