it's all lowercase anyway at parse time.

gsich··on Chromium Has Merged JpegXL
Bug tracker where they lied about "not enough interest".

change port.
gsich··on IPv6 just turned 30 and still hasn't taken over the world
I use this argument, because HN also tries to do the reverse when someone suggests a protocol/addition/replacement to either TCP or HTTP. Then suddenly it's important what shitty company networks do. It's still not.
gsich··on IPv6 just turned 30 and still hasn't taken over the world
>Maybe not in the strict sense, but it kind of has.

>In the enterprises I've worked in the past decade with IPv6 running, at least 75% of the Internet traffic is IPv6.

Nobody cares about those. What matters is if my device has an IPv6 address assigned.

gsich··on Mattermost restricted access to old messages after 10000 limit is reached
yes
gsich··on Mattermost restricted access to old messages after 10000 limit is reached
From my observation Mattermost is not a software you buy "support" for. It either works and is self-manageable or you use something else. I guess Mattermost (as in the company) saw that too and now uses shitty practices to coerece people into buying it.
gsich··on Mozilla appoints new CEO Anthony Enzor-Demeo
Yet.
gsich··on When a video codec wins an Emmy
Until Google (and by proxy their underling Mozilla) becomes sane again, JPG or PNG/SVG depending on content.
gsich··on When a video codec wins an Emmy
Hopefully never. Abusing Intra-frames from video codecs is an abomination. Use JPEG-XL.
gsich··on Please donate to keep Network Time Protocol up – Goal 1k
leap seconds are deprecated
gsich··on A modern 35mm film scanner for home
5-10 minutes depending on equipment/skill. You "lose" most of the time if your strip is cut into stripes of 4-6 images, otherwise you can do it in 2 minutes.
gsich··on A modern 35mm film scanner for home
No, this competes with a lightsource, some stand and a macro lens+DSLR/M. It's a good price if don't have the later ones. But chances are high that you do if you are into photography.
gsich··on A modern 35mm film scanner for home
Never. 20 Mp if you want "lossless".
gsich··on Email verification protocol
You send me mail with noreply@example. I go to your MX to see if noreply@example will receive mails. If not you are spamming.
gsich··on Email verification protocol
Talk about overengineering. Why not allow users to use the service (or parts of it) without verification?
gsich··on JMAP for Calendars, Contacts and Files Now in Stalwart
or 2.
gsich··on Using a laptop as an HDMI monitor for an SBC
Latency, not FPS. Still suitable for using it as KVM.
gsich··on Using a laptop as an HDMI monitor for an SBC
In what regard? The common Macrosilicon chip MS2130 has <100ms.
gsich··on Qualcomm to acquire Arduino
ESP32 is also 5V tolerant for input pins.
gsich··on Can you use GDPR to circumvent BlueSky's adult content blocks?
Because I don't trust any company with handling such verification.
gsich··on Raised by Wolves Is Original Sci-Fi at Its Most Polarizing (2020)
Very good show, got cancelled sadly.
gsich··on A month using XMPP (using Snikket) for every call and chat (2023)
Wrong. Apple (or Google) also use the same TCP based approach to maintain connectivity to allow notifications. No way is an extra connection responsible for bad power efficiency, with that small payloads. This is propaganda.
gsich··on Steam, Itch.io are pulling ‘porn’ games. Critics say it's a slippery slope
>You don’t get porn movies on Netflix or Disney stream. You don’t get adult toys in your local grocery store. Why do we sell porn on Steam?

Why not? One shouldn't confuse games with real life.

gsich··on Linux and Secure Boot certificate expiration
I do.
gsich··on I want an iPhone Mini-sized Android phone (2022)
>Things steadily got bigger from there. The general population WANTED this.

Easy to say if the only devices are big phones. There is no choice.
