muhehe··on Show HN: I turned my iPhone and a $20 smart plug into an f-stop timer
I played with development photos in a darkroom a long time ago. I don't think one second actually makes much difference.
muhehe··on GIMP Development Update
What would you consider good modern design?
muhehe··on Help Keep Thunderbird Alive
Thunderbird will provider their PRO services using stalw.art as email backend. I was considering using it too to replace really old mail system in our company. It looked like modern stack using jmap, but it seems thunderbird actually does not support jmap? Or is it only in their PRO extension? Does it mean I cannot use this unless it is with their services? I'm confused.

Of course there is still IMAP, but I hoped for better.

muhehe··on Jolla on track to ship new phone with Sailfish OS, user-replaceable battery
I won't dispute you. Maybe it evolved into more usable state, but the beginings had many problems and rough edges.
muhehe··on Jolla on track to ship new phone with Sailfish OS, user-replaceable battery
I really wish them success, but I just can't see it anymore. I had the first version and it seems it didn't move much forward from that time. And there were also many screwups, as poisonborz reminded a bit earlier.

Their UI looked novel, but wasn't that great in practice. It wasn't stable (hopefully that changed) and the lack of real apps was killing it before and now even more, as more banks/govs require some "trusted" apps

muhehe··on Running our Docker registry on-prem with Harbor
For image registry...probably not that much. But it is quite common for other software, often those that target containers/k8s/... I already have few of those and that would be quite handy to have some good local s3.

But isn't it still available separately?

muhehe··on Running our Docker registry on-prem with Harbor
Thanks, that looks good. Do you have some real experience with this in production?
muhehe··on Running our Docker registry on-prem with Harbor
Yes, but I'd rather some self hosted software solution

This looks nice. What would be good on-prem S3 companion for this? I know if minio but I think there was some recent drama about it (I don't know specifics, just a feeling)
muhehe··on Microsoft is open sourcing Windows 11's UI framework
I already lost count how many UI frameworks are in windows. It looks like complete chaos and mess.

I really wonder what they expect from open-sourcing it. Just to pretend how open they are? Or is there any real benefit to developers who target windows?

muhehe··on Reading NFC Passport Chips in Linux
Do share :)
muhehe··on Netboot Windows 11 with iSCSI and iPXE
Instead of hiding which game it is, the company should be properly shamed.
muhehe··on All Kindles can now be jailbroken
Thanks, I'm liking kobo more and more every time I read about it :).

Out of curiosity, why block updates? Does it conflict with your modification

muhehe··on All Kindles can now be jailbroken
There are ads in kobo? Is it normal or some sort of cheaper offering like kindles?
muhehe··on Amazon's killing a feature that let you download and backup Kindle books
Hey, this look neat. I'm not familiar with kobos, are they good (compared to kindles)? Does this require some sort of jailbreaking or are they quite open by default?
muhehe··on Anthropic: "Applicants should not use AI assistants"
Seems reasonable.
muhehe··on Getty Images and Shutterstock to Merge
> Whenever I wanted to buy stock images, I was shocked how expensive they were.

It's funny, because authors of those images (at least on Shutterstock) get basically nothing (like ten cents for photo, iirc).

muhehe··on SQLiteStudio: Create, edit, browse SQLite databases
Thank you! This is great software. I don't use it much (and recently almost not at all), but I still love. It's fast, it's easy to use. I just checked your website and it looks there are tons of features I didn't know about :). Thanks again.
muhehe··on Show HN: Greenmask 0.2 – Database anonymization tool
I liked similar thing, snaplet, unfortunately they're dead now. One thing I liked was the option to run proxy to which you could connect with any tool you like (psql, dbeaver, ...) and see preview of your transformations. Also they had some good (stable) generators for names, emails, etc...(I haven't yet checked this fully in greenmask).

Anyway, I will definitely try this. It looks real good!

muhehe··on HP injects AI into its printers
No, no, no. Do NOT touch my content. I don't care how bad you think it is. Do not modify it. Ever. Printers are such a crap already. Now to actually have to very carefully check if the glorious super intelligent machine changed some numbers (hello xeror) is not something I want.
muhehe··on Show HN: I Wrote a Book on Java
Is java still popular? Though I'm not a big fan of it I wouldn't mind using, but I'm after somewhat recent changes in licensing I'm not even sure I can. I don't fully understand the changes and I'm afraid of oracle coming after me :).

Can anyone explain current caveats and/or limitations with current licensing?

muhehe··on A Gentle Introduction to SAML
I certainly won't defend saml (it does suck), but saying oidc is a breath of a fresh air seems like an overstatement :).
muhehe··on PgManage: Modern, cross platform graphical database client
I'd like to know too, because I think it's really great
muhehe··on NVIDIA Transitions Fully Towards Open-Source Linux GPU Kernel Modules
Thanks. I'm not well versed in these things. It sounded like something you load into GPU (it reminded me old hp printer, which required firmware upload after start).
muhehe··on NVIDIA Transitions Fully Towards Open-Source Linux GPU Kernel Modules
What is GPU kernel module? Is it something like a driver for GPU?
muhehe··on Take a look at Traefik, even if you don't use containers
In the future our company will migrate to k8s. It looks like it will be openshift, specifically. Do we need this in openshift or is there some "native" mechanism baked in?
muhehe··on Spotify getting into enterprise IT tools
I saw link to backstage some time ago, but I could not figure out what it's supposed to provide. Can someone explain what it does / what do you use it for?
muhehe··on Nvidia sued for stealing trade secrets: blunder showed rival company's code
Or

muhehe··on Blender 16yo winner of UK young animator of the year
Can someone recommend good tutorial or way to get into blender for 8yo. My kid would love to, but I don't know blender myself.
