Putting my vote in for this feature as well... Also, why not compile VNC into WASM and get full remote desktop experience for graphical apps. It seems that hard work has already been done!
My fear is that something similar will slowly happen to everything "compute". How long before my bank's website won't let me login if I don't use a computer with secure boot and a browser installed from an app store?…
Still rocking Dell Precision M4400 from 2009 with Intel Core 2 Duo and NVIDIA Quadro FX 770M. Arch + XFCE + Nvidia drivers from the AUR (not in main repos anymore). On my 5th battery pack and 3rd wifi module. Runs like…
Attestation is great for consolidating power and eliminating competition. As far as the cloud goes - you will only be able to use AWS, Google or Azure, because they will have proper certificates and attestation. Browser…
It will make web scraping impossible. You will not be able to install any software that can do that because it won't be let in to app stores (i.e. it will never get the right keys and permissions, websites won't even…
What about `skim` - integrating it as a library? fzf is nice, but it is external - you have to pre-install and configure it.
I disagree with "bloat" comments. First, the binary will only have stuff you use. Secondly, the fact that you are not writing from scratch code that someone else had more time to write and test - this is a huge plus.…
Awesome alternative. I've been using Shaarli for a very long time. Very stable, always works, everywhere works. Doesn't look fancy, but reliability is off the charts.

Didn't EU freeze all Russian dollar accounts? That basically means Russia never gets those dollar payments. Why would it keep delivering gas for free? Does that "contract" even mean anything then? By switching to rubles…
They say 2 generations need to pass between large wars reoccurrence on the planet. 1st generation that largely participated in the war will never do it again, whatever the cost. 2nd generation gets very strong message…
Well, it is at the top of Hacker News. If everyone just goes to https://github.com/httpie/httpie and stars it again - we'll fix it in a jiffy!
... and you turn to Wikipedia when even its founder no longer trusts the website: Wikipedia co-founder: I no longer trust the website I created - YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l0P4Cf0UCwU
There is also another differentiator - companies buy insurance for all employees (i.e. in "bulk") when if everyone were to buy it privately, insurance companies will have to sell it in "retail". As is always the case…
I think there is a difference between features of the editor and editing method. Following your logic - if there is already Notepad, why create TextPad, Atom, Word, VSCode etc...
A couple of times i found myself clicking on various text labels just to see if it is a title or a button. All these flat minimalist designs are a step in a horribly wrong direction.
I am surprised by this shortcoming of Calibre image. I guess the trade is learning how to install calibre vs. learning how to deal with docker. I'd also agree that even if you use docker and installation is easy - for…
To do this right you should also think of backups, updates, and monitoring. Self-hosting is true freedom but doing it right for things like email is akin to running a small business. On the positive side docker makes…
> ... I'm less likely to choose it, ... I find I am more likely to choose it because you don't have to be super experienced in Rust to produce fast, reliable binaries. That is not the case with C/C++.
All the code that humanity needs has already been written. Even if you were younger, you'd still be late - there is nothing else to code.

I don't think people can make politicians accountable as long as primary incentives for those politicians are campaign contributions from corporations and wealthy donors. A politician only has motivation to do bare…

> I would still call that a victory overall. Humanity declared victory over every single pathogen to date (eradicated, contained or seasonal) because we are still here and thriving. We should go on with our lives.
It has been my experience that the skill to be outwardly "visionary" and at the same time remain cynic at heart gets rewarded most handsomely, especially in corporate world. We all have been in those meetings, town…
