but you are still not entitled to anyone's source code unless you are a user of the program. do you want to pay RH's contract and distribute their code for free? well, find someone to host a VPS that will receive petabytes of traf

The funny thing is that even though it's a Mozilla product now and even though it's somehow "integrated" in the browser, I still have to log into it separately regardless of the fact that I am already logged with with Fi

GDPR is to be implemented independently in each country. There is room for interpretation, it's not a granitic ruleset from above

But how much time until the hardware is changed? And all the current models?

I'm still trying to find a way to use the IM FELL typeface on my terminal emulator. It just feels.... right

Yes, just audit a 1M LoC app every 2 weeks!

Ok? Or buy a Samsung and only use Samsung's native apps?

I don't know, which people were laughed at in the industry for the last few decades because they wanted to have control over their own computers and run their own code on their own machines?

And? Feature phones cannot run a 2kB application that generates TOTP codes?

by Knee_Pain 3y ago
TOTP does not require one app for each service, plus phone scams and sim cloning is rampant. Seems you have limited experience un both subjects

iPhones have 2FA embedded into the keychain. I don't know about Android but Apple users can literally start adopting TOTP without changing a single thing. Providers should simply add instructions telling people that if they have an App

by Knee_Pain 3y ago
SMS is not the way to go and you are conflating capabilities with poor engineering. You cannot install a barebones TOTP app on your Nokia 3310 because it is closed source. Most services don't offer third party TOTP because they are pre

Adobe products look the same across Windows and macOS. I don't think they are using so much native stuff. They even ported their software to ARM, I think they could manage a Linux transition

Photoshop exists on macOS, which is a *BSD. If something already runs on *BSD it's quite simple to port it to Linux. But they just won't do it until it becomes used enough

Everyone in academia knows that academia is shit. People are warned well in advance by peers, professors and everywhere online, and yet they still do it. Then, once the sunk cost creeps in, you can't help but partake into the rotten sy

"HN is not one person" and "this might inspire someone" can justify basically anything. It's not really a good argument

I thought the HN audience liked innovative stuff. Not the same old Windows-only proprietary circuit simulator

As always, people almost never RTFM. When I see webdevs implement a hamburger menu with pure CSS I almost shed a tear. For the love if god, study your tools! (and not from SEO spam articles)

You realize the "beauty and grandeur" you are referencing comes from aristocratic families boasting about their wealth and making it obvious to the poor that they are better than everyone? The buildings you are thinking about were

Which buildings of any era have you been able to unsee? Can you teach us this technique?

New stuff is new. Gets adopted and publicized. Public craze ensues. Reactionaries midlessly push back. Society reevaluates. New stuff is old now. Less of it, becomes assimilated. New stuff is new.... Why are people even surprised things alw

I wonder if they were pressured by the journalist to come up with the buzz word or it was something they used colloquially between peers

Can someone explain where the (suspiciously) scary nomenclature of "forever chemicals" comes from? Google neutered their normal search engine, so in order to search by date I went to Google Scholar and I have found no use of such

Then what was the point? If I saw a unicorn and took out my phone in a hurry I could get a video of exceptional quality, granted I uploaded it somewhere without too much compression. Seems like you wanted to create a little abstract story

My iPhone can take stunning videos. This is not 2010 anymore

Really you have no idea? Maybe because it's off topic?

But Mastodon is not the only way to manage accounts and publish stuff. It has so much overhead because it has to look and behave like a Twitter clone, whereas you could simply have a barebones password protected web admin panel to allow eac

by Knee_Pain 3y ago
How is it ironic? Their Mastodon instance is private and basically read-only, not social media. I don't think this is the thread best suited for excreting your obvious pent-up anger

by Knee_Pain 3y ago
Yeah, this is a gripe I'm having recently with governments and news publications creating a whole website and Mastodon instance just to have a few publish-only profiles and comment-only options. Just implement a smaller Activity Pub se

You (rarely) can force a cure onto people, and in the case of mental problem it's basically impossible. If the science was clear in that depression would be heavily contained if the sufferer engaged in physical activity, good sleep, go
