I assume the chief reasoning behind this decision twofold. First, it's a crapshoot to get alternative stores working on my steam deck (I wouldn't expect my less technical gamer friends to feel confident installing a…
I'm cautiously excited/optimistic for this. That said, I wonder if this feature will end up seeing all that much usage? Once your inputs are sanitized/bounded in a Golang application, it's pretty hard to get the…
Sorry, I made a couple of points in that post, and you're conflating two of them. Ben Shapiro isn't radicalizing anyone, but he's definitely a hack who regularly says controversial things to get into the public eye. In…
You don't need to trust him, but I think you're making a false equivalency there. The reason Joe Rogan apologizes, is that some of his takes are WILD. The whole thing about the wildfires last year being set by left-wing…
I think this hits at the heart of the issue though - you don't get to, as a public figure, decide whether or not you are "the voice of a movement". In mass media today, influencers and other people of note who don't…
I thought based on how pilots were paid, longer routes were more desirable? And shorter routes would be in lower demand, since airlines don't typically pay for time spent on the ground?
2 and 3 are great points, but honestly - and especially if you're working in multiple repos, or multiple subdirectories in a monorepo - VS code's folder search is better than grep. It'll find you the exact place in the…
And this is where the NIMBYs come in; people who bought in years or even decades ago, who want to see prices rise to astronomical levels so they can retire off of their home's equity. Any proposal to do this will…
To What, though? This is the problem I'm currently struggling with. I could go to Android, which is relatively good but still run by Google (one of the most data-hungry corporations around). I kind of want the Z Flip 3,…
I'm on the other side of this; I don't use my phone for anything more than messaging, light browsing/videos, and social feeds, so what I really want is more battery life. Last I checked, both purism and pine64 are…
Facetious as this is, I can't imagine this is anything other than Apple's endgame here. The best of both worlds: keep advertising their privacy chops to the masses, while also allowing any and every government agency a…
Yeah, I've worked with HSMs in the past and to say that it's a challenge to get key material out of them is an understatement. That said, a lot of this depends on the architecture surrounding the HSM - if the key…
I would disagree here. AWS has to be strong out of the gate to push opensearch as more than just "elasticsearch, but on AWS". Elastic has proven its worth, or this fight wouldn't even be happening. AWS is simultaneously…
This is the right answer - HN is absolutely not representative of web users at large. If we were, I'm sure there would be much stricter anti-adblock/ad protection systems on large sites.
KYC only helps to an extent, right? My understanding of crypto is minimal, but if you run your own miner I assume you don't need to verify anything to anyone. You should be able to send out transactions to the network…
While I agree with the broader point, this is grade A BS and I think you know it. Anyone who's ever spent time in a classroom viewing the experience with an objective eye knows that teachers can't be reasonably expected…
This clearly isn't marketed towards me (I'm happy running firefox locally), but from what I can tell I'd like to use every part of this product except the core offering. - Mirror my tabs in the cloud? Great! - Opt+Tab…
Isn't this just notification center? I don't think you can reply to say, a slack message from it, but most services have some form of notification support that will redirect you to the proper app context
I don't understand why anyone would pay for this, under any circumstances. You're not paying for exlusive access to the tweet, or even ownership in any meaningful context - you get a certificate of authenticity tied to…
That's smart - I know I've had a couple of folks interested enough to download the app, but not interested enough to use it on a daily basis. If I may, I'd like to push a little deeper on this. Why the single-digit user…
Anecdotally, it took me about an afternoon. I realize that I'm more technical than the average person, so setting up the certs and installing the python deps was a breeze because I've done it before; the documentation…
This seems like a great move forward for Element, looks like this is angling to replace the New Vector offering they had a while back? The pricing is certainly odd, though. For 5 bucks a month I run my own server with…
Can anyone chime in on their experiences hosting a synapse server? I have close to a dozen people on mine (although we don't federate much with the network as a whole, I set it up initially for a couple of…
Synapse is essentially invisible on a $5/mo digitalocean VM, in my experience. I don't have too many people on it, but I've run my own server for about a year and a half now and I've had no issues whatsoever. Throw it…
I feel like I have to ask: where are you getting a server that'll run arbitrary erlang code for 2 bucks a month? The absolute cheapest I've seen seems to be 5, from digitalocean/linode
