  • [Solved, false alarm] Librewolf and Firefox login session issues

    Jump

  • Well I can’t explain Firefox being logged out of all sessions. But librewolf wipes out your cookies and site day by default when you close or start the browser

  • The most popular Go dependency is…

  • C'est la Sea

  • Imagine having disadvantage and your first roll is a 20 but the second roll is a 1. Your crit turns into a crit fail.

    I’ve seen my fair share of ttrpg drama first hand. But I have yet to see this happen and I expect it would completely demoralize most players for an evening.

    Crows are intelligent birds and learn quickly – even from each other. In Sweden, they are used to collect cigarette butts and bring them to a machine that automatically rewards them with peanuts.

    Jump

  • I wonder if there are any downsides to machines like this. For example, do the birds grow dependent on the machines to survive? If so, what happens if smoking rates drop?

  • This is much more than mildly interesting. I find this fascinating! The crows being so capable. The cleverly constructed symbiotic relationship. The fact that such machines are funded at all. Maybe I’m just jealous of what European countries can do with with public funds 😒

  • Hollow knight was great for these exact reasons! Very easy to pick up and put down. Also gives you something with a longer term progression. Oh and backpack battles too. Fantastic little game. These three games basically entertained a party of my brain through the first 2+ years of fatherhood

  • Discord logging me out after reloading the page

    Jump

  • Are the session cookies gone after reloading the page? If so, I’d guess that Librewolf is removing them. You might want to look for settings related to cookies and how long they persist

  • Providing a checksum without telling you how it was created

    Jump

  • I absolutely understand not liking opt-out telemetry. Do people generally not like opt-in telemetry? Is this really why the community shifted to a different project?

  • Containers in 2025: Docker vs. Podman for Modern Developers | Linux Journal

    Jump

  • What about nerdctl + containerd?

  • koto v0.16.0 released (koto is a scripting programming language)

    Jump

  • That would be great. I frequently have to click the link and navigate to a home page for a meaningful description. Here’s the opening statement from Koto’s README on GitHub.

    Koto is a simple and expressive programming language, usable as an extension language for Rust applications, or as a standalone scripting language.

    This is the first thing I need to read to understand if I should or should not care about the project and its new release.

  • Switzerland plans surveillance worse than US - Tuta

    Jump

  • Basically one of the founders, Andy, posted on twitter some praise of Donald Trump and the US Republicans party. I didn’t love but it wasn’t so exactly horrible IMO. But as people replied, Andy started answering via Proton’s official twitter account. And these were much worse.

    Unfortunately, the original posts are now deleted. Even the discussions that I participated in here on Lemmy are now deleted. So it’s definitely hard to share much info. Here’s a copy/pasta of something from my inbox:

    The worst part was not Andy's initial posts it was his initial "let me correct the narrative" follow ups where he went on to bash Democrats and call the Republicans the party of the little guy, which is in many ways untruthful.

    It's just a really bad look overall. This is basically how it started with us finding out Musk was such a mess too.

    Here’s Proton’s official response on Reddit, from 6 months ago. If you care to dig up more info, this should be a good starting point. Maybe the original posts are available on archive.org?

    For my purposes, the event prompted me to learn a tad more about Proton’s finances. I discovered that the company donates to political parties in the US and elsewhere. IMO, this kind of thing gives people a good reason to care about this kind of “internet drama” because Proton uses its revenue to influence politics. I don’t know any details of how they do so, but this event made me question if I should continue using their services.

  • When A and B are for sale, then marketing and advertising definitely betray the 90% sometimes. The popular item is not always the best or even the best value

  • He looks like an AI-generated cross between Bob Ross and Seth Rogan

  • Tiling terminal multiplexers for the console connoisseur

    Jump

  • While this article offers a nice list of multiplexers, I feel like it misses a subset of them: terminal emulators that offer multiplexing features. For example, when I adopted wezterm into my workflow, I suddenly had no need for zellij and quickly removed it from my dotfiles/machines. Surely, other emulators also belong in this list too

  • Open-source fonts?

    Jump

  • I’ve been using homebrew as an OS agnostic package manager. It’s been surprisingly great on Linux btw! And when I went hunting for fonts, I found that homebrew has a huge collection of fonts available for easy install. I personally found the GitHub repo easier to explore. I can’t be sure that they’re all open source but I expect that a large number of them are

  • Switzerland plans surveillance worse than US - Tuta

    Jump

  • Proton has made some statements about exiting Switzerland if these proposals become law. But who knows how long that would take and if any damage is done in the meantime.

    Plus there’s other junk going on lately with Proton as a company…

  • You asked, we built it: Firefox tab groups are here | The Mozilla Blog

    Jump

  • Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if the inclusion of some small AI feature is what justified the rest of this work being done. As in, someone got approval for tab groups only because they were smart enough to describe it as “AI powered tab groups“. Just speculation

  • France and Germany, in joint collaboration, have developed a Google Docs alternative - and its awesome! (Netherlands are currently onboarded)

  • There are many reasons to use k8s. Managing multiple nodes is one good one. But more importantly, k8s gives you an api-driven runtime environment. It’s really not comparable to docker compose.

    Jump

  • Yea I’m not a fan of helm either. In fact, I avoid charts when possible. But kustomize is great.

    I feel the same way about docker compose. If it wasn’t already obvious, I’m biased in favor of k8s. I like and prefer that interface. But that’s just preference. If you like docker compose, great!

    There’s one point where I do disagree however. There are scenarios where a local k8s cluster has a good and clear purpose. If your production environment runs on k8s, then it’s best to mirror that locally as much as possible. In fact, there are many apps that even require a k8s api to run. Plus, being able to destroy and rebuild your entire k8s cluster in 30s is wonderful for local testing.
