  • Anyone played around with Podman Desktop?

    Jump

  • This changes a bit when you start using podman quadlets instead of docker compose, but most compose commands have an analog in the quadlet syntax.

    Ive yet to run into any compose files that I couldn't translate, but some functions took a bit. The quadlet docs from redhat really help there.

  • Subaru Security Flaws Exposed Its System for Tracking Millions of Cars

  • For the Subaru's, you have to take out the stereo head unit/screen and pull some wiring/module off of it.

    Its apparently not terrible, but it's a big ask for people who don't deal with car audio/electrical on a regular basis.

  • "is popular"

    Im pretty sure they auto setup an account on threads for anyone on Instagram to artificially make it popular.

  • Bambu Lab's reply to my complaint

    Jump

  • Notice the weasel words too: "mandatory" subscriptions, "unauthorized" monitoring of prints.

    Sure sounds like a system where they can lock a ton of functionality behind an "optional" subscription, and where they will force you to "authorize" monitoring of prints with a TOS change in order to use your printer at all.

  • And this simple security flaw was humorously left alone until they clamped down on sane use of customers printers.

    It reminds me of what happened to the PS3. Sony shipped them with an option called "other OS" that was a full Linux install. Tons of enthusiasts and orgs, including Universities and the USAF, used this to turn hundreds of PS3 into computer clusters for research or to do other interesting things.

    Well, about 3 years in, Sony decided to just disable that feature out of the blue. They were of course sued and lost millions because of it, but the fun part is that up to that point, for literally 3 years, they had no piracy on the console. It had a semi novel protection scheme that no one had hacked, a point they touted proudly. Well, about a week after that, geohot, a hardware hacker, broke this scheme specifically because they disabled "Other OS," which allowed piracy on the console.

    Its almost like pissing off your deeply technical user base in the name of enshittification can backfire.

    Coffee will still get you rolling, but in a much kinder way.

  • Wow Mastodon is under 70% now.

  • Not getting this experience on Mastodon. I hopped on after Lemmy, but so far I've had several positive back and forths with people.

  • A tautology is a tautology.

    Jump

  • In my experience, people want "it will work." They will not accept "it could work" at all.

    "It should work" is the perfect amount of hedge, even when you know "it will work," because all of us have been burned by simple assumptions that were right 1000 times before and were somehow wrong this time.

  • Buckets is also good and runs on the same "envelope" model. I find the UX of buckets much better, personally.

    Not actual FOSS, but its a free unlimited trial that you pay for when you want to.

  • A tautology is a tautology.

    Jump

  • This is why "sure" or "yes" are not part of my IT vocabulary. "Should" is king. "We should be be able to do" or "that should work."

    In the idiocy of stakeholders that want IT to be a magic wand to fix their ineptitude instead of a helpful contributor to their well thought out process, you have to coach everything in the polite "no" that is "maybe" or "should."

  • Keep it simple

    Jump

  • Well, I spent a non zero amount of time trying to use the word "sluiced," so I think mixing metaphors is probably accurate.

  • Keep it simple

    Jump

  • Sure, but that doesnt mean I want to mix its difficulty into code.

    I like fried chicken too, but i don't try to somehow add json to it, no matter how sexy those nested brackets get.

    Good things dont all have to be sluiced together into a juicy pulp. They can be good all on their lonesome. I can "git gud" in dark souls and enjoy well documented, consistent IaC as well.
