Really? I wrote and self-hosted two services to do that, and there always have been a ready-made option?

They’ve asked for a good method for a non-technical person, not a bad one for a freaking MacGyver.

No, it makes no sense. Keep looking. Worst case, buy some locally for cash.

Definitely not matrix.

I just wrote a YouTube scraper and exported to RSS and into my podcast client. Using YouTube any other way is masochism in comparison.

Convinces clueless FOSS communities to move off IRC. Onto a unusable protocol designed around netsplits they never cared about, yes, but it’s n o v e l!

Native Tab Grouping

I’m old enough to remember previous native tab grouping.

I’m sorry, but this is the vanilla trolley problem. Save all but one or avoid going to jail.

When autonomous cars are good enough to just drive people around

they become autonomous cars. It’s not autopilot if I’m liable, simple as that.

Blocking UA access via JS alone is not enough.

All these keys. Still 0.5 keys per thumb. WTF.

Lazy path: just buy an remap a Kinesis 360 Pro. It’s perfectly fine to just go with some off-the-shelf perfection and procrastinate all the time you’ve saved.

I run syncthing with my own relay and I trust that setup. Owning me through syncthing would basically require backdooring the software, something that’d be likely to go noticed by the syncthing community.

Rustdesk is a backdoor by functionality and it’s already using infra I don’t control. I don’t feel comfortable using that.

It’s literally a third-party service that let’s others control your desktop. Doesn’t matter how FOSS the clients and end servers are, one also needs to trust the intermediate servers. If those running them are caught dishonest about which country they’re located, the trust evaporates. China or not.

Android, not the pre-installed shit.

I do. While I could’ve self-hosted it easily, I’m just consciously OK with it being public.

I see you’re holding to the Australian view on cryptography.

Definitely don’t. If there isn’t a FLOSS Linux client for it, just don’t use it.

I’m fairly sure they’re different names for the same thing.

There are keyboards with extra middle keys (Kinesis Advantage360 comes to mind), but if you’re typing wrong, there’s no way to soften that blow. Asking people is precisely for the cases when the question makes little sense and should be reframed in a discussion. If you don’t want to hear what you actually need, just Google without asking people.
