Not strictly related, but since Copilot could be the next to violate the TOS, I've asked for an official response here: https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/183809. If someone can help raise this question, it's more than welcome.

New comment by paolomainardi in "Progress towards universal Copy/Paste shortcuts on Linux"

paolomainardi — Sun, 17 Aug 2025 09:46:10 +0000

MacOS has for me the best basic keybindings even thanks to the keyboard hardware design and the fn button placed on the left side, which is the right one, as it opens the door to have home/end/pgup/pgdown with fn + arrows, and high ie perfect for 65% keyboards, I’ll never understood why pc keyboard and mech ones have the fn on the right side, totally useless.

Another thing MacOS did it right, cmd+c/v for copy/paste. Anyway, I talked about this here: https://www.paolomainardi.com/posts/linux-remapping-keys-wit... and how to remap with Xremap.

Is there a real alternative, where is not not needed Windows in any way, to the Remote Device Management baked into firmware as Apple does with its hardware ? This is biggest missing to bring Linux to enterprises.

In this post, I explain how to customize key remapping on Linux using xremap, a powerful tool that works with X11 and Wayland. I walk you through the installation and configuration process, showing how to remap keys like `Home`, `End`, and `PgUp` to create a consistent, personalized keyboard setup across different devices.

I am wondering if reinstalling the entire Archlinux installation would be a wise choice.

This is a very interesting point, the vulnerability scan tool used on the article is this one: https://github.com/anchore/grype-db/blob/main/DEVELOPING.md and here you can see how it works: https://anchore.com/blog/build-your-own-grype-database As you can see there is a database specifically designed for Debian to take in charge the naming convention.

This post discusses the issue of managing software dependencies and the potential risks associated with relying on large amounts of code that may be vulnerable or malicious. The author analyzes the number of packages and vulnerabilities in different languages and frameworks, including NextJS, Django, and PyTorch, and provides practical tasks to manage dependencies, such as automating dependencies management and scanning for known vulnerabilities.

paolomainardi — Tue, 07 Feb 2023 22:07:42 +0000

This is a terraform module to deploy a Mastodon instance and it's dependencies on GKE Autopilot + Cloudsql + Memorystore Redis (optional) and Elasticsearch (it was hard to run it on Autopilot. The costs are around 60$/monthly thanks also to the spot nodes instead of regular ones, anyway you can tweak it as you prefer. Not yet finished, but ready to be published on the wild for comments.

Static sites like Hugo don't have search engine features natively integrated, so you need some external tool, like Lunr or the most recent Lyra. In this article, I'll explain both the projects, how they work, and what I've learned building it. You can follow the README to get started: https://github.com/paolomainardi/hugo-lyra

Author here, the article is a very detailed journey about the docker internals till the current actions you can take to improve the performance. You’ll find custom made diagrams (Excalidraw), live terminals (Asciinema) and some gif repo made to run the tests. Let me know if you like it.
