"Fixed in Firefox 131.0.2" which was released 21 hours ago? (https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/131.0.2/)
okasaki··on Mozilla fixes Firefox zero-day actively exploited in attacks
It references "Bug 1923344" but when I click the link I get "You are not authorized to access bug 1923344."
okasaki··on Show HN: Hosting my website using my C web server
You're missing vhosts, TLS, caching, logging, and log analysis, access control, rate limiting, custom error messages, metrics, etc.

Must be from the Gods on Olympos QTing around.
okasaki··on Why Is Britain Poor?
Equally UK pseudo-adults in their 30s living in shoebox HMOs and spending an hour commuting on a shitty corona-bus for a trip that would take 10 minutes in a car isn't exactly great either.
okasaki··on Installing Arch Linux on a Laptop
I just use archinstall, which is similar in difficulty to GUI installers, i.e. not at all difficult.

Conspiracies happen all the time, from the mundane to crimes against humanity.

Just had an incident call last week with 20+ engineers on zoom debugging a prod k8s cluster for 5 hours.
okasaki··on Reclaim the Stack
All IRC clients have local plain text logging and putting a .txt on a web server is trivial.
okasaki··on Cruise ships chopped in half are a license to print money
Don't people disappear (fall overboard) all the time?

Also I would think diseases spread pretty easily on ships.

okasaki··on Gnome Files: A detailed UI examination
There is actually a small gap between the list items where you can right click.

You can tell you're on the gap when no item is highlighted.

okasaki··on Gnome Files: A detailed UI examination
This works in GNOME too, it's Super + left mouse.

Super + right mouse anywhere in the window presents a window management menu, including resize/move options

okasaki··on Phind-405B and faster, high quality AI answers for everyone
I mean I'm just not sure what you're saying. What does "eliciting violence" and "clean society" mean?

Are you ok?

When a web site says "Sorry, page not found" do you start punching your monitor?

When the delivery guy leaves a note saying "Sorry we missed you" do you go to the depot to beat up the employees?

What?
okasaki··on The Insecurity of Debian
I hear a lot about podman online, but I've never seen anyone using seen.
okasaki··on The Insecurity of Debian
Poorly designed for general use?
okasaki··on State of S3 – Your Laptop is no Laptop anymore – a personal Rant
I learned to turn my XPS 17 off after it almost cooked itself in my backpack a few times.

What an awful laptop.

okasaki··on Starlink Defies Order to Block X in Brazil
I thought he borrowed it? In which case he definitely can't run it any way he pleases.
okasaki··on E Ink faces growing competition in the "paper-like" display space
The Kobo has a thinner side and harder and sharper edges than the Y700 with the rubber case.

Personally I'm not overly distracted by android apps when I'm reading a good book, but YMMV.

My Kobo doesn't have any buttons.

It also forces me to go on wifi and make a Kobo account to use the device at all (even if I'm just interested in copying epubs).

In short and honestly after 5 years of ownership: fuck Kobo and and fuck ereaders in general.

okasaki··on E Ink faces growing competition in the "paper-like" display space
The Y700 came with a rubber case which makes it significantly easier to hold than the plastic Kobo. The metal body and minimal bezels also look much more premium.

It's also _extremely_ better at everything, including for reading books, so the higher weight and (2x, not 3x) cost are well worth it.

The Kobo battery doesn't even last that long with the backlight and wifi on, and at least mine wipes its storage and OS when the battery runs down completely. The screen and UI are also the worst thing imaginable. Using eink devices is basically equivalent to torture.

okasaki··on E Ink faces growing competition in the "paper-like" display space
Not really. My Lenovo Y700 tablet is 375g, and my Kobo Aura One is 230g

The Y700 has a bigger screen and is 100x better at everything though.

That's not as relevant as it used to be though.

My android tablet lasts for a week of reading and charges from 30% to 60% in 5 minutes.

Emacs is pretty snappy these days, what kind of performance problems are you seeing with it?
okasaki··on Anthropic's Prompt Engineering Interactive Tutorial
But openai also asks for a phone number?
okasaki··on "Everything" is a filename search engine for Windows
When I type in 'reboot' it gives me Reboot the movie in some online store.

They have played us for fools.

Why not docker?
okasaki··on Dual-screen laptops make more sense with this spiral notebook-like hinge
The point is that it's not 4:3.
okasaki··on Dual-screen laptops make more sense with this spiral notebook-like hinge
Yes. ThinkPad X1 Fold is also 4:3.

Kind of niche devices both though, and expensive.
