Very useful, even for someone who has been using Linux for many years. Sometimes you just forget or need that tool you rarely use. tldr can be much handier than parsing a man page when you’re in a pinch.

I use the tealdeer implementation, but any is fine really.

Never knew about prelockd, seems like a pretty neat and useful idea, thanks!

I’m either being very dense right now, or I don’t have that o.I How is it called, or where is it located next to?

Wait what? Was there ever an option to open a private tab as a normal tab?? 🤔 I’d love to have that, but thought it would never get added. What version were you on before (and in which one are you now)?

Adding onto what’s already on the thread, you can try look at the newer Element Call, which is an implementation of Matrix’s native calls.
I’ve been using it a bit recently, since Jitsi seems to have stopped working reliably for me (to be frank, I’ve not put much effort into debugging it yet). It works well, but it’s still early stage, lacking some features Jitsi has. If that one works for you, I recommend you stick to it.

I still don’t think it’s there, but development hss been fast, so a lot has changed and improved in the last couple of months.

Not exactly. Matrix 2.0 relates to the protocol (Matrix) version, which has its major number incremented due to a bunch of, well, major changes/updates to make it much better. OIDC, sliding sync and native calls are some of the new things that comprise the 2.0 update.

The server implementations are somewhat orthogonal to this. Synapse (the original Python server) is still the main implementation, and is Matrix 2.0 ready.

conduwuit is a fork of the less “energic” conduit.rs software, and both are maintained by the community, not by the Element people, like Dendrite.

Agree, but mad props to the Gentoo people too. Nice community and incredible wiki as well.

Yeah withdraw cash from an ATM and use it. The system sucks, but it’s not trivial to change for a myriad of reasons.

There’s no real way to do it. Unless you know someone who can trade you XMR<->cash and you somehow convince your employer to (break laws and) pay you in those forms, you can’t avoid it. At some point, you’ll have to get money on a real bank account, which requires real information to open.

As far as I know, modern cards don’t just send your CC info to terminals, they do some form of a cryptographic handshake (probably a pubkey signature or similar) which gets confirmed by your bank. I believe Caveman was talking more about online shopping, where you have to enter your card number, expiration date, CVC and often your name too.

That’s why I love virtual card systems like MB NET. You just generate a random virtual card for every purchase (or a recurring one for each subscription vendor, for example) and move on. Your bank still knows what you’re doing, of course, but vendors can’t correlate anything. Preventing your bank from knowing where you’re spending your money is much harder, for very practical reasons: fraud detection. The only real way is to use a secure crypto coin like Monero, but very few places accept it and you still have to deal with volatility.

Yeah, I am lucky to live in such a country and it’s amazing. The state and municipality each subsidised part of the purchase, so I ended up paying 300 something euros to install 3.5 kW of panels. My electricity bills are almost non existant during summer and also cheaper during winter. To make it even better, anytime I’m not using the produced electricity, it gets sold to the grid, even if pretty cheap, rebating on my next billing cycle.

LibreWolf is little more than a custom config for Firefox, they don’t do actual development on the engine, which is the important and very technically laborious part.

I have the exact same issue on my Pixel 4a. Tried a bunch of stuff, even installing their gallery app (with network and everything in XPrivacyLua blocked), to no avail. It just crashes when using the shortcut.

My “solution” was to place a shortcut to the normal gallery app on the home screen and train myself to quickly switch to it.

Here in Portugal, most display useful info like date, time, outside temperature (with varying degrees of accuracy), as well as services provided by the pharmacy or some general (often season specific) health recommendation.

The use of a bright green sign is, of course, to seek attention, but it’s also useful to quickly spot an open place at night, when most are closed and only a few remain opened longer in each town/city neighborhood (called “farmácias de serviço”, i.e something like “pharmacies in service”; they usually rotate between themselves each week). Nowadays you can check which places are available at night through a nice website, but the signs remain a useful thing, nonetheless.

The animations are just a culture thing now, I’d guess. Different pharmacies employ different animations, some wackier, some less, though there are very common animations for sure, such as the one where a 3D cross is animated rotating on multiple axis at the same time, making a nice spin back to its original position.
Why? I dunno, they break up the usual info display and help grab attention? I dunno, you get used to it and it mostly gets filtered into the background hehe

I’ve been finding Zulip quite helpful. It’s threading model is great and they overall focus quite a bit in the project coordination use-case. You can either self-host it or pay for their managed hosting (which is free for open-source projects), and you can add a plugin to make static HTML pages of streams (aka channels) in order to make stuff indexable and searchable (and iirc this is getting polished and built into Zulip’s core).

If you care about accessibility, email is still the best choice — it’s mostly text-focused, doesn’t need an account (besides what is universally seen as the most basic Internet identity), truly decentralized and has mature tooling. I just haven’t found a really good mailing list archive web UI. HyperKitty is good, but isn’t quite there for me. lists.sr.ht is neat, but lacks a lot of features. Above all, indexability and searchability (from inside the UI itself) is key.

Not sure about pill treatments but I had tried a bunch of ineffective things before a friend recommended me one of these Seresto collars.
They’re just magic man, I don’t know. My dog and cat used to consistently get fleas, but a couple of weeks after I got them one of those, every freaking bug just vanished. Nothing ever since, as far as I can tell (I still check them often).

If anyone knows how these works, I’d love to be enlightened!

True, an RCE is always a serious thing. Just saying it’s not exactly catastrophic like others have been more so.
