Shipping labels, tickets etc. Printers suck, but I can rely on paper being suitable for its purpose. Can't say that about most alternatives (mostly phone apps).
That joke is actually pretty old. In fact the link you posted says that it's not his joke. I don't really know where it came from, but it's certainly not from that guy.
This is nice. I run dark mode everywhere and I used to use notepad for quick notes and stuff. Problem is that notepad is a giant wide window so it would burn my eyes out when opened, so I had to switch to something else. Now I can use it for that purpose again...
Providing I move to Win11 that is. Still not a fan of the task bar lacking features I use a lot.
Ah so because it's flagged as offensive you can't use it in an offensive manner on the internet. Got it. Makes perfect sense. THINK OF THE POOR APPLE MONITORS.
What issue? There's nothing wrong with being offensive, and again, in this case that was entirely the point. He's being offensive to Apple's implementation of monitor settings. He's not even wrong about it since it's a rather big pain point if you're mac user who wants a multi monitor setup.
Posting the definition won't change anything. You're tone policing the guy with literally 0 legitimate reasons to do so.
The first definition is "very stupid or foolish" which seems quite apt given the context. The second one talks about a disability, which does not really seem applicable since we're talking about monitors and not people.
So where is the issue exactly? He used the word correctly as far as I can tell.
Looks to me like they just straight up ripped the Discord front-end, changed the parts where it connects to a back-end and hosted it. Registration page has links to Discord's ToS, opening dev tools will give you a message about working at Discord. You can even try to buy nitro on it and it will try to call stripe with what I assume is Discord's key.
Scummy as hell.
yup, `sudo tinc -n %VPNNAME% invite %CLIENTNAME%` will generate an invite URL on the server side and `tinc join %INVITEURL%` will let you join it. It's definitely really easy now, but unfortunately it's being marked as a pre-release which sets tinc back a bit imho.
As for revocation, I have a similar setup and I agree. My worry is that in a theoretical situation an attacker could get access to a network and then spread his key to the entire network and there's little you can do about it. For personal use it's fine (I use it), but because of this, I would be vary of using Tinc for some sort of production use (although I've heard of people doing it). Even if it's a big IF since you need to actually have an access to a node to generate an invite, the attack surface is still there and there's no good way to undo it.
Tinc 1.1 is actually fairly easy to set up - it's only a couple of commands for defining the name of the network, getting a link nodes can use to join etc. The only problem is that it's technically not a full release, so most distros don't carry it. Compiling isn't difficult (a simple ./configure && make && sudo make install), but it could be better. My only major issue with Tinc is lack of any central authority making it really niche - revoking keys seems to involve deleting them on each connected machine. Not fun.
From what I can tell ZeroTier seems nice as long as you're okay with using ZeroTier's servers for things (a curious trend I've noticed - so called decentralised services will always be great until you want to have fully independent servers). Sure, you can find github issues telling it's possible to set up your own planets, but the software seems somewhat complex and there's no documentation for it, and moons (what is with this lame terminology anyway?) will ping ZeroTier by default.
> We've gotten so used to phone notifications and a persistent history, that IRC has fallen behind purely from a convenience factor.
I have that with a bouncer (znc) and a plugin. I've not used it, but it is my understanding that IRCCloud does this too. Problem is that there aren't many easily usable options for this apart from IRCCloud and even IRCCloud itself isn't all that well marketed.
Always seemed kind of weird how while IRC is full with FOSS people who are willing to use their time on various projects they're not getting paid for, most of whom also seem to worry about IRC dying out, nobody is really doing anything about it. A lot of the conveniences we miss could mostly be solved by making modern clients that are actually good.
The difference is that a TV is intended to be used to watch movies, TV shows etc. (which is why they do these effects in firmware) although a lot of TVs have a "Game mode" or something similar which disables these effects. Computer monitors are used for a lot of things (so - generic usage), and these effects would usually end up being terrible or unnecessary for the experience (do you really need motion enhancement filters for text editing, web browsing or spreadsheets?). If you need to show a video on monitor you can just process the image on the GPU and show it on a monitor, which is exactly how it's done.
I feel like the better solution to #4 is setting up UID namespacing for docker instead of (just) creating random users within the container. Even if you create a user, it's still going to run as whatever UID it has within the container (probably 1000 is most likely your UID if you're the only one using said system)
On Windows I have the "Allow Firefox to install and run studies" option disabled and yet in about:config Normandy was still enabled. I haven't received the fix. Could be that Firefox simply hasn't checked for it, or it could be that there's more than that about:config setting that determine whether Normandy is run.
