  • Even if they were all properly recycled, which isn't going to happen, this product still shouldn't be sold. We don't need any more consumables with large ecological impact. Recycling isn't doing nearly enough to balance out the damage.

  • I want to do that, but not because of Flatpak. That's incredibly far down the list of things I find offensive in my professional life. At the very least it does fulfill some sort of purpose and also doesn't cost any money to use.

  • You mean hiding their public IP? I guess that's a feature.

  • That's what a firewall and a DNS service is for respectively, imho. As long as you get an IPv6 prefix from your ISP, you can expose as many devices or services to the public as you want, by just allowing incoming traffic to a listening port. That was sort of the whole point of having a large enough address space when moving away from v4. Maybe it's just me but reading stuff about "private AI" on a website where the relation to the product is not immediately obvious, makes me question their legitimacy.

    The more I look at their site, the more it reads like a sales pitch for IPv6, which sounds kind of expensive at $6-10 a month.

  • What problem does this solve? Do ISPs not provide IPv6 prefixes anymore?

  • Carl?

  • The snail has been taken over by parasitic flatworms that control it to seek out exposed spots and pulsate inside of their eye stalks to get eaten by a bird and enter the next stage of their life cycle, which they spend by living in the birds cloaca and spreading their eggs via feces.

  • I would fucking hope not. TERM is explicitly passed along as the only exception, which is the only sensible default for temporary privilege elevation in a shell.

  • It's a phoronix article, there's never more than two paragraphs and a quote in there anyway.

  • That's a stretch, imo. I've never seen anyone put a conscious effort into verbally emphasizing the less important parts of a sentence to their kids or anyone else. Those poor kids don't deserve that, just like babies don't deserve having their verbalization skills stunted by baby talk.

  • It's a matter of taste to a certain extent, but panel three really doesn't make sense. It doesn't match up with how anyone would naturally vocally emphasize that sentence and it doesn't highlight any important meaning either. If you emphasize too many words in a sentence, you get a similar effect to audio compression causing a loss of dynamic range. Humans experience stimulation by contrast: if everything is emphasized, nothing is.

    It's also worth noting that italicized text is often a better choice for this kind of emphasis. In any case, the visual noise makes it difficult to read past a certain point.

  • You're right. I don't think it's a good reason and it breaks the flow or gets ignored if used excessively, but it is a reason.

  • Of course the family that prints every second word bold for no fucking reason is into bold outfits.

  • Website scanning for malware or other undesirable content is extremely unreliable and prone to false positives. None of the three vendors are very well known (except for a few other reports of false positives). If anything that's a pretty low hitrate on virustotal all things considered. Don't put too much stock in the heuristics of companies whose business model revolves around scaring their customers and exploiting computer illiteracy.

  • That script is a wrapper around a single call to qrencode. I've been making qr codes from wireguard config files in the terminal at least since PiVPN existed. There are plenty of guides on how to do this as well.

  • You could not have worded that more condescendingly. The issue here is that Rust is singled out for no more apparent reason than making for a clickbaity headline. The underlying Windows API function requires undocumented escaping to prevent this exploit, Microsoft won't fix that because it breaks compatibility, pretty much every programming language with a standard library that provides access to it is affected - Java won't even fix it, others have updated their documentation. Rust is the first to actually implement a fix for a vulnerability that's ultimately caused by Windows and gets called out for it for some reason. Of course people are going to get defensive about it. As they do every time a stupid headline gets published.

  • I'm aware that any of the past attempts to classify body types are extremely pseudo-scientific and I've explained as much in a different comment in this thread. The point is that "body type" isn't just necessarily just a generic way to refer to someone's body shape. Plenty of people still believe in that made up nonsense.

  • What are you trying to say?

  • I get what you're saying, but this feels like a weird question to ask in a community for selfhosting enthusiasts.
