tmpxgdqrcKFuG··on Twitter Bots Are a Major Source of Climate Disinformation
Have you ever injured a human being or, through inaction, allowed a human being to be harmed?
tmpxgdqrcKFuG··on Facebook Disabled My Account After I Criticized Them
Or maybe, nomoregoogle.xyz and get your domain taken away?
tmpxgdqrcKFuG··on Bluetooth Attack Can Steal a Tesla Model X in Minutes
So, what I hear you saying is to try this in the US
tmpxgdqrcKFuG··on React created roadblocks in our enterprise app
Why not split the frontend and the backend apps into separate applications? That would help with the future proofing since if you wanted to switch to another javascript framework, you could do that.

EDIT: forgot an important word

tmpxgdqrcKFuG··on Pidgin – A Universal Chat Client
I miss Adium

Trillian used to be like Pidgin and Adium on Windows but then they went and made its own IM service.

tmpxgdqrcKFuG··on Fastmail was down
They can stop Trump from posting on Twitter but I was also being facetious.
tmpxgdqrcKFuG··on Gist.cafe – Execute Gists of Python Node Deno C# Dart Swift Go Kotlin Java VB F#
It's like jsfiddle for multiple languages.
tmpxgdqrcKFuG··on Fastmail was down
Yes! That's exactly what I was thinking. I think I like the way fastmail does it more than gmail too.
tmpxgdqrcKFuG··on Fastmail was down
Nice. Thinking about it more, I think I could live without it but I have it with Gmail at the moment. I like the per-address basis though, in Gmail I add the domain alias then when I add an email alias that alias applies to all the domains.
tmpxgdqrcKFuG··on Fastmail was down
In the US, companies have the freedom to take away an individuals freedom of speech.
tmpxgdqrcKFuG··on Fastmail was down
Can I have domain aliases with fastmail? I saw I can have email aliases but can I specifically have a second domain aliased to a primary domain?

EDIT: They do. https://www.fastmail.com/help/receive/domains.html#mirrored

tmpxgdqrcKFuG··on Launch HN: Finmark (YC S20) – Financial planning software for startups
I don't mean this as a stink to Finmark but it's also a motivating factor to move on to something that better fits your needs as you get bigger instead of trying to squeeze everything out of a service designed for helping startups.
tmpxgdqrcKFuG··on VSCode, Dev Containers and Docker
The problem is "technically" still there in Windows it's just that Microsoft decided to push things along by creating WSL which essentially puts Linux (with Linux Containers) on Windows.

The Windows solution is the equivalent of Smart Hulk figuring out time travel.

I'm not saying it's not good, because it is.

tmpxgdqrcKFuG··on Raspberry Pi Lego Sorter
I'm not against it as much as in aww because the device itself is made of A LOT of legos, so not only do you have a lot of legos from building the sorting device but then you have a lot of legos for the sorting device to be useful.
tmpxgdqrcKFuG··on GitHub has received a DMCA from MPA about torrent tracker nyaa.si
By name it wouldn't but they link to several files where the "offending code" resides, so if they're using examples where someone is downloading a movie then that would prompt for a DMCA.
tmpxgdqrcKFuG··on Raspberry Pi Lego Sorter
How many legos do you have to have to build it and still have enough left over that you need a machine to sort through them?
tmpxgdqrcKFuG··on Amazon: Not OK – Why we had to change Elastic licensing
I am interested to see how long or if Elastic sticks around after this. If people will just move on to another AWS product or if they'll keep using Elasticsearch.
tmpxgdqrcKFuG··on Tech companies are profiling us from before birth
So, like in Black Mirror?
tmpxgdqrcKFuG··on Show HN: 100 LOC Ruby forward proxy using only standard libraries
I think preprending “forward” was meant to avoid confusion. Reverse proxy and Forward proxy, but now you’re wondering if there’s 3 types of proxies.
tmpxgdqrcKFuG··on German laptop retailer fined $12.7M under GDPR for employee surveillance
How would "random" bag checks be milder than video surveillance?

- They're typically not going to be watching it 24/7. They'll only look at the tapes if something occurs.

- Random bag checks, like in programming, is not really random. You either have a particular target or type in mind or you apply it to everyone and bag checks are a lot more invasive than video surveillance.

tmpxgdqrcKFuG··on The bunker builders preparing for doomsday
You teach your children what you know, pass on your knowledge and improvise where you need to.
tmpxgdqrcKFuG··on Thou shalt not run a database inside a container
If you do just make sure you create volumes to the host for the data to be saved, but yeah as a general rule no.
tmpxgdqrcKFuG··on Pirate Bay founder thinks Parler’s inability to stay online is 'embarrassing'
You just Open Safari, go to your web page you want, click the share icon, and "Add to Home Screen" for iOS.
tmpxgdqrcKFuG··on Response to “WireGuard: great protocol, but skip the Mac app”
Yeah, I am willing to admit it was a loose interpretation of "sketchy" but it was that it's titled "About WireGuard" then takes you to a donation page that I was thinking about. Why not just call it "Donate to WireGuard" or link it to an /about page. You could have donation information on the about page in addition to information about WireGuard.
tmpxgdqrcKFuG··on Response to “WireGuard: great protocol, but skip the Mac app”
Couldn’t you just change the url to /about instead of /donations? Seems sort of the thing sketchy sites do to say one thing and link to another.

If I want to donate to a project I want to browse the site and learn more about rather than straight to the donation page. Seems like a money grab to take me to the donation page.

tmpxgdqrcKFuG··on Lulu – Mac open-source firewall that aims to block unknown outgoing connections
PiHole?
tmpxgdqrcKFuG··on U.S. Capitol Locked Down Amid Escalating Protests
Well, it's a good thing the moratorium on federal executions is gone if they can charge and convict Trump of treason.
tmpxgdqrcKFuG··on Auction: David’s Personal KITT Knight Rider Car on Sale
> FULLY FUNCTIONAL

With Turbo Boost and the molecular bonded shell that repels bullets and explosions?

tmpxgdqrcKFuG··on Using GNU Stow to manage your dotfiles (2012)
Yeah, I set it up with the Atlassian tutorial, https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/dotfiles, and store it in a git repo in Keybase.io
