How exactly would they alter the desktop client I installed from a git clone?

Thats one thing that snaps are trying to do. I personally prefer firejail for application sandboxing and permissions but then you have to be extra careful how you install the application (dpkg post-install scripts have been known to do sket

You as a user can still access hidden directories. Most new applications are nice enough to respect the XDG specification.

I really like the idea of snaps. I really don't like a lot of the execution decisions around them. Snaps break debain's stable release model. They allow upstream to ship updates outside of the normal 6 month ubuntu releases. There

Zoom has a not very well published chrome app (intended for chromebook users). You can install it in normal chrome and it gives you a much better experience than the web version without all the issues of the desktop app. I trust zoom a lot

Joyent did http request signing using ssh keys[0]. Their cli tools used this mechanism. There's been some effort to carry this forward through the standards process[1]. I'm not going to comment on whether this is a _good idea_. It

I have a very ( very ) rough react-native frontend for this that runs on android. I've been waiting for the go-mobile module support to settle down a bit before cleaning it up and releasing it. Its probably about time for me to pick it

Just a note, there is a Go port of magic-wormhole that does properly interoperate with the official python version and has the benefit of not requiring a python environment: https://github.com/psanford/wormhole-william

> about half a year since that popular Latacora post recommended it for transferring files, and said "Someone stick a Windows installer on a Go or Rust implementation of Magic Wormhole right away". I read this and then went and

I assume the go wormhole implementation you are talking about is https://github.com/psanford/wormhole-william . I've been working on building a mobile interface for it. After that I may look at doing a Windows UI.

There's also https://github.com/psanford/wormhole-william . It's written in Go, doesn't need an installer and is compatible with the official wormhole client.

I have run Cassandra in production. A replication factor 3 cluster over 3 AZs should be able to survive loss of a single AZ. However, it has been my personal experience that Cassandra handles instances going down much better than it handles

Yeah I am aware of the oci-template. I was mostly thinking of discussions like this[1] where Stéphane says there are no plans to support anything like that in LXD. I find the distinction between "system containers" and "appli

I love lxc/lxd. Its really a shame that there is little to no interest by the lxd team in supporting the oci container format.

Its really not that hard. I've got /etc/resolv.conf pointed at 127.0.0.1 and a local stub resolver forwarding to an upstream DOH server. Boom! everything using gethostbyname is now using DOH.
