Yes there's a placeholder in that scenario Something like 'new message available' if I remember correctly (I'm no longer on iPhone, so can't verify)

The scanner funtion in the Google 'Files' app has been working excellent for me. Unfortunately no open source apps match it. Same scanner functionality is found in the Google Drive app. They should make it into a dedicated app imho

Does this one also crash when hitting people with a hammer? I got that error when running reVC on the steam deck, especially during the union strike mission

Looks really cool! As an Odoo developer (which means each customer's project is by definition a "large codebase", considering the size of Odoo itself) this could be really useful. Definitely am looking to try this out once my holiday ends.

This looks amazing Wanted to build something using HTMX first, but this seems like a great fullstack solution for simple UI's, like a Fullstack version of HTMX fully built with python

Some web frameworks have such limits built-in. Django for example has a limit of 4096 characters for password input, which should be more than enough for anyone, including people using long random-generated passwords from password managers

intuxikated — Mon, 09 Jan 2023 15:17:22 +0000

Not arguing that ZFS is not more feature-complete than btrfs, I agree in general ZFS is a better file-system than btrfs, but for general users BTRFS is much more accessible than ZFS on linux, since you can just install a distro with it as default, without having to be an expert in partitioning and managing a linux system. ZFSBootMenu is very much a power-user tool, not for regular users. It's also very niche, <500 stars ? Wouldn't call that 'Quite a lot of users'.

> A malicious server can trick the client into using the same key while talking to the server during the initial registration protocol and while talking to other users in the E2E protocol.

this is bad

> we show that the attacker can trick a user into creating a valid vouch box and sending it to the attacker. This allows the attacker to impersonate the client to the server forever.

This attack means that, under some circumstances, a user might compromise his or her own account by simply sending a message to another user.

Yikes

Which major distro allows using ZFS from its official installer except ubuntu (now deprecated) and maybe arch linux? Which distro uses ZFS by default? I think almost none. Sure, ZFS might be stable for extra mass storage disks, but how many people use it as a filesystem for the linux root? Never seen anyone putting the main OS on zfs

Btrfs hasn't had any major data loss issues for the last 5 years (excluding the raid issues) btrfs is much newer than ZFS, so obviously it took longer to be stable, if you're talking about 6+ years ago, Btrfs was obviously not ready yet, but now? It's been the default on OpenSUSE for 5 years and Fedora for 2.

Any application on linux where snapshots, resizable partitions, compression or deduplication is useful? Zfs on linux is still not ready for primetime on root partitions, and for most uses except raid5/6 (which isn't important for 99% of desktop users) btrfs is an excellent option

There's a reason the other major non-debian distros have switched to it by default.

I'm still waiting for ubuntu to allow installing using btrfs + fulldisk encryption by default, which is currently a massive issue.

This is the main reason to avoid browser based password managers, just plugin a usb with portable firefox and 'import' the passwords into firefox, nothing will try to stop this

If the user is logged into the PC, everything is available to extract, nothing is really preventing any extraction besides the windows user account

Google just wants more data, and wazes systems are too detached from the rest of google's infrastructure, consolidating everything in google maps is more profitable for data-analysis and advertising

How does this work? Does it only work when searching? When a user subscribes to your content, is it subscribed to the alias or to the server address behind it? What happens if you want to switch servers? Can existing connected users find content on the new server if the webfinger changes?
