My company discontinued access to notepad++. Fortunately, that same week they added vs code. If stripped to the bare minimum it’s a serviceably fast text editor. (FOSS has to be approved by IT)

Weird, Notepad is not installed in my computer. Hmm.

First time on Lemmy?

Any security system based on expecting good behavior from people is sure to fail. If NPM has no estructural features to enforce safe behaviors, it is vulnerable by default. As no person using it will apply safe practices unless forced to. Specially if the default, easiest, less friction behavior, is inherently unsafe.

Always remember that, in the eyes of the law, the real crime is being poor.

They never released music, just metadata. It doesnt matter. This injunction is just legal posturing. They have no jurisdiction to tell foreign domain registrars to do anything. It takes an actual cop walking in on a data center to finally seize a site (surrender hard drives, reroute domains, etc.) If the server is in another country, it takes years to go through the red tape. If the country is not collaborative, it will never happen, specially since piracy is seen as a very low priority issue in the grand scheme of cyber crime.

I know, since 2024. I’ve seen what they did, and their windows tiling and snap management is still egregiously inferior to almost every other desktop environment. So much so that people still pay for the app because it is so much better than default macOS, adding shortcuts, for example.

Apple’s UI has always been a joke. A case of looks pretty but is actually annoying and impractical to use. The greatest Apple joke is that you need to pay for a third party app to get basic window snapping. That is just one of many UI issues. It does look nice on screenshots though.

Well, that’s if they were on a bicycle, but they’re standing on a paddle board over the ice. Why would they stand on a bicycle? that doesn’t make sense. Neither does a paddle board on ice, but I already lost track of what the metaphor was about.

Truenas apps are just docker containers that were written by someone else anyways. You can always just turn them into a custom app and see it’s internal composition, o just make a custom app and choose the image and settings yourself exactly like in portainer.

Veto power is supposed to represent nuclear power. The logic is that it is way better for a country to veto a resolution than it bombing another country because they got pissy.

I always remind people that the UN’s mission is not to solve all the world’s problems, but to stop countries from tearing each other apart and avoiding all out nuclear mutual annihilation. So far, it has succeeded.

I also hate that it has no teeth against modern issues, like genocides of non nation state peoples. But genocide didn’t even exist as a concept when it was created. The concept was coined by a Jewish legalist who scaped the holocaust.

BTW, same dude hated the guts of Zionist israel and warned that an ethnostate would lead to genocide eventually. He was 100% right.

Gee I wonder what would it take to solve world hunger. Maybe a comprehensive strategic plan that changes minds of decision makers and pressures them through diplomacy and negotiations. Perhaps we could pool resources at the same time to distribute food to the countries most affected by sitemic historical injustice. Someone should manage that complex of a problem. Maybe a neutral governing body that ensures it’s well managed and countries pay something up front towards this problem. We should call it the league of countries against hunger, or the coalition of groups of people. I don’t know, I’m bad at naming things.

Bills? This is about controlling the narrative. Billionaires don’t think in terms of money, but in terms of optics. Keep the proper image up, and the money will come in on its own.

Might be a jellyfin setting. I discovered that while the players report the device capabilities (with some caveats), some edge cases make the server still transcode video because it instructs certain formats to always transcode. There are too many variables and the server plays it safe. The biggest culprit is bitrate.

I have tailscale linked to github’s Auth. Is there any way to migrate all the machines safely to an alternative while keeping the same tailnet settings?

Exactly, scammers aren’t having people install unverified apks, they are sending people straight to the play store and they have the money to pay the verified dev process. It’s all automated and no single human checks applications. It is all based on paying.

Slippery slope fallacy. We know that consumption of real CSAM might increase frustration and lead to pursuit of real crimes. However, we don’t have the same level of evidence for illustrations or sex dolls. It’s a massive blind side in the scientific literature. It’s very hard to study.

Despite this, the number one risk factor still remains unsupervised access to minors. Regardless of whether the abuser consumes abuse media or not.

Because meta wasn’t good for it, hence why it wasn’t popular at all.

Less debris on the ball, but in my experience there’s more dust on the rollers. So it’s the same maintenance anyways.

The update announcement is precisely about adding this one feature. But reading is hard, I know.
