I hope you’re not raw dogging torrenting Linux ISOs with some form of protection.

That’s good to know! Glad not everyone is having issues with Wayland :)

It’s a shell that allows you to easily run different terminals applications and environments in tabs. With some nice cosmetic options to boot.

The last thing I was excited for was their new terminal announcement https://youtu.be/8gw0rXPMMPE. Something I wish actually ran on Linux 😅

What are you talking about? They weren’t talking about the large majority, they’re explicitly talking about the minority who needs accessibility tools to use a computer. I personally don’t know what these deficiencies are, but i can imagine with Wayland’s strong security focus, screen readers would be busted.

Is it the Multipeer Connectivity you’re talking about? I’ve never heard of it before. It does seem like something that could be used to track users.

Their stance on default privacy and sticking a finger to law enforcement is leagues above both Microsoft and Google/Android. So far at least.

Yeah that looks cool. I will give it a closer look tomorrow :)

Cool, I’ll check this out. Always a bit of a ball ache when I need to access the server while lying in and too lazy to get up. Using vim on a phone is always an adventure in patience.

I’m always amused by Eminem’s line in “Without Me”. “Little kids feeling rebellious, Embarrassed their parents still listen to Elvis”.

Any parents here with gen z kids who can chip in? 😄

That doesn’t sound like a TOTP vs passkey situation though. It sounds like the program just releases the passkey when you give it the fingerprint. There wouldn’t be anything stopping the program from generating a OTP and passing that along when you identify with the fingerprint.

I think a big issue is how difficult it can seem to be to get easy access to TOTP codes, like in your example digging up your phone. But that’s more of a browser/operating system failure for not implementing a way to generate those codes like they can already store usernames and passwords.

But that was the entire point from the first reply. If you don’t trust external hosts, there is nothing for you.

What? If you’re talking about an already leaked list of passwords in a CSV it doesn’t matter?

Kinda yes, but really no. If they assume there is always a comma, but if you add it after you’ve generated whatever password you’ve chosen you’re still making it harder for them. You haven’t compromised on the length, and now they need to figure out where in the rest of your random password the comma goes.

A friend of mine showed me their nothing phone, one with the glyph lights in the back. It wouldn’t have been an expensive version, but even so the back plate felt very plasticy. Is that still the case with them?

For an ELI5 explanation, this is what happens when you lower the bit rate: https://youtu.be/QEzhxP-pdos

No matter the resolution you have of the video, if the amount of information per frame is so low that it has to lump different coloured pixels together, it will look like crap.

Why play games if you’re not interested in them? Or don’t have the energy to play. Not so easy to “chill” if you’ll be kicked out your house next week. Lost your job? Bah, just chill and game.

What an absolutely brain dead thing to say.

No one is saying those who can’t access or reqd English wikipedia is inferior. The issue here is when what is on a non-english wikipedia article is misleading or flat out harmful (like the article says about growing crops), because of juvenile attempts at letting machine translations getting it very wrong. So what Greenland did was shut down its poorly translated and maintained wiki site instead of letting it fester with misinformation. And this issue compounding when LLMs scrape Wikipedia as a source to learn new languages.

I understand you’re trying to be nice to minority languages, but if you write research papers you either limit your demographic to your own country, or you publish in English (I guess Spanish is pretty world wide as well). If you set out to read a new paper in your field, I doubt you’d pick up something in Mongolian.

Even in Sweden I would write a serious paper in English, so that more of the world could read it. Yes, we have text books for our courses that are in Swedish, but i doubt there are many books covering LLMs being published currently for example.

Definitely. If you have a second one it’s very safe to try out a full Linux install.
