  • No AI* Here - A Response to Mozilla's Next Chapter - Waterfox Blog

  • And a thermostat for AC is an agentic AI.

  • LibreWolf remains AI-free!

  • I was just looking where to donate to them. The chads aren't even accepting donations.

  • People online say old computers are prime candidates for repurposing into routers, is that actually a good idea security wise?

    Jump

  • Unless I'm mistaken, this mostly depends on software/os you install.

    A RPI with OpenWRT will be secured in exactly the same way as a router with OpenWRT and a laptop with OpenWRT. (At least I think so, I vaguely remember hearing about some Intel CPU vulnerabilities, but I don't think there's anything remote).

    Power draw will be the main problem, along with more limited range because of the strength of the WiFi card.

  • Fresh Launches as a New Terminal-First Text Editor

    Jump

  • I'm kind of interested how will it go, especially further development and their issue handling.

    It doesn't do anything I need, though.

  • I'm used to just sitting to pee, exactly for this reason, but there's a rare case where I give up and pee standing, i.e when I'm already dressed and it's way easier, where I used to risk it and pee standing.

    I stopped doing that even in those rare cases when we've gotten the blood/horror bathroom mat, something like this, but not branded and from what I presume is the original source (Aliexpress).

    It's horrifying when you see the mess you're making, even if you really try not to.

  • You can do anything at Zombocom

    Jump

  • First time I'm seeing this, and I have to say I admire their dedication to the joke.

    Zombo.com is a single-serving site created in 1999...

    ...

    The site was initially a Flash animation, but as of 5 January 2021, it switched to HTML5 due to the discontinuation of Adobe Flash Player.

  • Trump Plan Would Force Tourists to Share Years of Social Media Posts Before Entering US

    Jump

  • I hope this will bacfire heavily and shuts down their tourist industry.

    I've had a few people around me who were to US, or planned to go. All of them has lost all desire to do so. I can't imagine why would anyone who doesn't have to (i.e for work, and even then I'd really reconsider it) volunteraly go to US at this point, for a vacation of all things.

  • Discord gets improvements for video on Linux PCs and Steam Deck

    Jump

  • If you aren't already using it, https://vencord.dev/ is a good Discord client mod that lets you get rid of some of the annoying features.

    Might be against ToS, but so far I don't think people had any issues with it.

    Another option (that I use when I don't need voice) is having your own Matrix server with Discord bridge. With double puppeting it can bridge both servers and DMs, and post in your name (without needing a bot on the server).

  • Discord gets improvements for video on Linux PCs and Steam Deck

    Jump

  • As far as I know you can do double puppeting with Matrix discord bridges, or whatever it is called.

    As in "the bridge posts using your account, and not a bot". I have it set up on my own Matrix server, and I have servers and DMs bridged without issues.

    Also, setting up a server with the ansible project is super easy, it's one of those rare cases where the ansible is robust, easy to use and actually doesn't break.

  • It comes with an add on countdown timer.

    Jump

  • Couldn't you just tape the music studio triangle sound/echo dampeners (or whatever it's called) around the exterior, and add a floor that has those subwoofer dampening triangle legs (to limit contact with the floor for vibration transference)?

  • I think they're bffs

    Jump

  • I just got around playing it, haven't yet talked to either, but the game is pretty funny. I'm not even into dating sims or VNs, but it's written well, full of puns and I'd recommebd it for everyone to try.

  • Foreign tourists could be required to disclose 5 years of social media histories under Trump administration plan

    Jump

  • If I'm not mistaken, people who said they don't have any are beeing held for questioning and interrogations, or maybe even denied access. I vaguely remember reading an article about this a while back, so it may not help you as much as you think.

    They can (how long can they hold you based on suspicion alone?) and will cause you a lot of trouble if they don't like what you give them.

  • React2Shell: maximum severity vulnerability discovered in React

    Jump

  • I have no experience with React, so I couldn't tell. Thanks for the info, I'll keep it in mind.

    I think I've seen it mentioned that in case RSC isn't used, it might be vulnerable but it's not really confirmed, but you're right that it probably doesn't warrant shutting down the server.

    I don't really need it that much, though, so I'll just wait for the update, take a scour through logs and use it as a learning opportunity for forensics, and skip the reinstall.

  • React2Shell: maximum severity vulnerability discovered in React

    Jump

  • Well, Element seems to still be running at the unupdated version even after update, so I'm just shutting the server down.

    I'm bummed that it took me 5 days to learn about it, does anyone have some tips how to get early warnings for techs you're using? I'm guessing there's a way with npm.

    Also, anyone has some tips how to properly compromise-check your server? I'm guessing there are logs to check for compromise, and audit your startup scripts for persistence? Any tools that could help with that?

  • React2Shell: maximum severity vulnerability discovered in React

    Jump

  • Fuck, Element for Matrix is apparently build on React, and I was updating like 4 days ago after few months.

    Well, time to update again, I hope it's fine. Never really learned how to properly compromise-check your server.

  • Oh, the irony

    Jump

  • I've read the blogs about what caused it, and all of them were programmer errors. Twice within one month, while it never happened before for as long as I remember. Hmm.

    Let me guess - Cloudfare has recently started using AI as part of their development process.

  • line noise

    Jump

  • First time I'm seeing Uiua, and I like it. It's kind of cute, even though I know I'll probably never use it.

    However, seeing one of their goals being "code that is as short as possible while remaining readable" is kind of ironic, given how it looks and reads. But I don't mind, it's still pretty adorable.

    It looks like it's hell to learn and write. It's possible that once you learn all the glyphs (which IMO adds unneccessary complexity that goes against their goal of being readable), it might be easier to parse. I'm probably not the target audience, though.

  • What open-source Android apps should people know about?

    Jump

  • Element

    This is my most used app on my phone. It does comes with a little extensive setup, because you need to have your own Matrix server, but thanks to the amazing Matrix Ansible Project, which is one of those rare docker/ansible projects that actually work and are very robustly set-up, deploying a server took me like an hour max, incuding bridge setup and getting hosting (for around 8$ a month on Hetzner).

    I replaced Messenger, Discord, WhatsApp and Telegram apps with this, by setting up bridges in Matrix. The setup was relatively simple, the ansible is well documented and I mostly had to just add lile two config lines into the ansible. So far I haven't had much issues and I've been using it for the past few years.

    There might be better clients than Element, haven't really looked into it. It's not frictionless and it took some getting used to, but not having a ton of spyware appson my phone is worth it.

  • NewPipe

    I don't really use YT that often on my phone, so I can't vouch for how often it breaks, but I use FreeTube on Desktop and having a YT client that can subscribe creators without an account, can turn off all the recommended distractions, has an adblock, can play with screen off and the like is amazing.

    Judging by my experience with Freetube, you do have to update it regularly since YT is actively fighting it, but so far every time I needed to watch a video on my phone, I could just update NewPipe and it worked.

    In my understanding of the main principles of the Fediverse, federating with any large corp should never even be considered. Is my understanding wrong? What is the "idea of the fediverse" to you?
