Oh nice, I guess that's the rule using `cap_ipaddress` I see in there.

The site just crashes with service workers disabled. First time I ran into a problem with that setting, which I set over two years ago.

For reference, uBO has a filter list called "Block Outsider Intrusion into LAN" which you can enable. That blocks all cross-site requests to local IP addresses, "localhost", and some other well-known locally-resolved hostnames.

Another attack vector is public DNS names that resolve to local IPs as well, like "lvh.me". I block these with a local dnsmasq instance and the "stop-dns-rebind" setting.

Still not sure if this catches everything, probably not. I really wish browsers would just block all of this by default and ask for permission.

Check `browser.zoom.siteSpecific` in `about:config`, in Firefox it defaults to true.

That is/was a Chrome problem, Firefox only allows WebMIDI after granting permission. Unfortunately its implementation is also incomplete/buggy so I still often end up using Chrome for those use cases anyway.

As a Linux user I love WebMIDI, because it means I don't have to open a Windows VM anymore to run firmware updates / utility tools for audio gear manufacturers that embrace it (e.g. Novation).

WebUSB should enable the same for more types of devices, but of course there should be appropriate permission mechanisms.

Creativity, tastes, desires?

All the LLM tech so far still requires a human to actually prompt them.

I'm on Debian sid / Firefox 135.0.1-1 and do get the warning.

The soundtrack was also commissioned.

That GUI has been there since at least XP.

Switch to a high-contrast theme then?

Thanks! But still not sure why Element X isn't featured more prominently on matrix.org then.

And surprised to hear Dendrite is now just experimental and not the future anymore. The README and FAQ on GitHub give no indication of that at all, maybe start there?

So what exactly is the status of Element X? I was under the impression it's still in development, lacking some features of the old app, and will fully replace it when it's ready.

If I search for Element on app stores I still get the old app first (with millions of installs, vs. tens of thousands with Element X), and https://matrix.org/try-matrix also still points people to the old app. So I'm confused what "past" you're talking about :)

Similar situation with Dendrite BTW, it's been in beta forever, and the only private Matrix community I ever was a part of ditched it because Synapse was too much of a resource hog, and there's no clear migration path.

The US is a joke when it comes to things like health care, or labour protections.

I had a similar issue recently and at some point realized it was because systemd started freezing all processes before suspend, and didn't always succeed (either with the freeze, or with the unfreezing after resume).

Check your logs if you have a message "Freezing user space processes failed". You can disable this behaviour with the instructions at https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/33626#issuecomment...

Thanks, I hate it. Can you point me to any examples of AI-generated content that's actually worth reading/watching/listening to?

Not sure how it compares to Arch, but Debian sid/unstable is pretty stable most of the time too (been using it on my desktops for over a decade). But both are probably bad for beginners unless you're prepared to learn and tinker.

Go to settings and disable Smart Features?

TIL, thanks! The corresponding query parameter seems to be "tbs=li:1", if anybody wants to make this the default.

I guess https://www.krikey.ai/ is close enough :)

Nobody's forcing them to put the full text into the feed, for me the main benefit is not having to check the site manually.

I mean, cool tech, but why not just print a QR code next to each illustration?

I don't think anybody's talking about translations.

There was also the recent Rails 8 release, which had some really nice improvements: https://rubyonrails.org/2024/11/7/rails-8-no-paas-required

You can't self-publish on Spotify, you have to go through a distributor like DistroKid. Not sure how this works with YouTube Music though, I guess for actual music (sans video) you have to use a distributor as well.

Also depends on the model, my Samsung TV from 2022 hasn't bugged me about anything yet when offline.

There's also the `ZZ` / `ZQ` alternatives, so you just have to find those letters :)

Make sure the notification is visible (you can minimize it though), and also switch to syncthing-fork if you haven't yet.

Vimeo does offer downloadable DRM-free paid videos, I used it a couple of times for crowd-funded movies and comedians releasing their shows. But yeah, it's pretty rarely used unfortunately.

Nice work! You should tune the control sensitivities though, like with the filter cutoffs the usable range is concentrated in a few pixels on the left.

I guess synths usually use some kind of logarithmic scales?
