90% of people aren’t worth the time

  • Orion on macOS and iOS also have built-in ad blockers, I don’t really understand your point. You could just as easily run a non-hostile browser that supports plug-ins cleanly.

  • They just spin a wheel every fucking year and decide to screw some group over.

  • iRobot vacuum/mop; I was new to the market and thought Roborock was cheap Chinese trash but boy was I wrong!

  • My router is just a Protectli Vault mini PC with Alpine Linux. You can essentially pick your favorite Linux (or BSD) distro and make it a router.

  • From the home network standpoint what good is having IPv6 on WAN if you don’t have IPv6 internally? One of the main selling points is not having to put up with the bullshit we all know as NAT — it’s weird you’d actively go against having it internally.

  • I always found it interesting that using an adjective as a noun always sounds bad in English whereas in other languages (like Spanish) it’s not. Obviously “illegals” is a bad example because it would sound bad either way though.

  • I want to feel the same but from a purely financial standpoint it makes sense.

    Don’t want a locked down phone? Buy directly from the manufacturer.

  • They’re similar but mainly Tailscale arranges WireGuard tunnels between peers. There are tons of useful features around that functionality like being able to route specific traffic through specific hosts (“nodes” using “app connectors”); it’s even better at finding a way out of hostile networks using relays.

    Just as an example I typically use my VPS as an “exit node” so that all my traffic routes through it (which does a ton of tunnel hopping through commercial VPNs) while my wife isn’t into that at all, but both of us have Tailscale on our devices so when either of us accesses Home Assistant it’s routed directly to the host hosting it.

  • Nothing in this article is relevant to what I use GraphQL for in two different jobs (my main full-time job and my side business); I’m really not sure why every GraphQL article assumes it’s only ever used for querying the backend from the frontend: I use it for strongly typed application to application purposes.

  • I used to just use a script with cron to update Cloudflare DNS records but these days I don’t screw around with exposing anything to the public internet directly, I just use Tailscale.

  • I thought it was cherry Coke but I could be wrong. The hue of the photo seems to be off.

  • Ha, this reminds me of implementing “API” access in the shipping world for companies that only ship a 90s-style web portal.

  • The fucked up part is I think his speech would be more coherent as the grammar structure is a lot more fluid in ASL.

  • I’ve been using Safari for quite some time and I thought back in 2023 the HTTPS record was old news (since Apple likes to wait for other to try out new technologies first).

    Kind of an eye-opener that adoption is all over the place; as a web developer the first record I think of now is HTTPS.

  • Are you thinking of Tor? i2p can be very quick once your node becomes aware of others.

  • Why is this always the go-to answer? I kind of wish we’d stop asking it must sync to the clearnet.

    Honestly if Lemmy (and other services) were built from the ground up for anonymous overlay networks rather than clearnet in the first place it would be a better place overall.

  • As a remote worker for years now the in-office crowd sure gets off to 1+ hour commutes, meetings that devolve into bitching and complaining (that I’m sometimes required to attend virtually), wasting time and eating shitty lunches.

    I’m sorry but fuck all that. I really love my job so I don’t need to do a bunch of social engineering to excel at it, and these RTO fluff pieces are kind of gross.

  • Am I the only web developer that loved XHTML? I cannot stand XML these days but as a young web developer I actually loved being told “hey bro, your code sucks.” I was naïve and developing for Internet Explorer; it wasn’t until I’d switched to other browsers that I realized my HTML was pure shit. XHTML forced us to write HTML/XHTML properly.

  • I can’t remember for sure but I think it’s common knowledge that lemmy.world blocks VPNs. Just switch to an instance that doesn’t.
