Fun fact: Firefox has this capability built-in[1]: Just press: ctrl+shift+s or you can add it to the toolbar

Such as?

For example?

For instance?

You know we're using, right now, this very cool thing called the Internet. And there's a somewhat new capability in it that lets you link directly to other documents!

Because what do you think matters more in an online game:

A. Smooth and consistent client experience, where bullets hit what you aim at (client-side prediction) where aimbots and wallhacks work.

B. Jittery/laggy client experience, where aimbots still work, but wallhacks are disabled?

You can only choose one option.

Generally, everyone agrees "A" is the best option and cheaters will be dealt with at game time. It's annoying, but that's the cost of online video games.

I don't think it's just "somebody"; I think it's a lot of bodies. I'm downvoting him too because he vibe-coded a super simple "app", then is trying to sell it here as some life-saving tool .

My main complaints:

- Why is this $30?

- Why is it Windows/Mac only?

- Why is it Gmail only when it's using IMAP?

But what really irks me is that you know you can do this exact thing with like two Linux CLI commands?

  ``` 
  $ offlineimap -c <configfile with credentials>
  $ mae export --maildir=test/fixtures/simple --output-dir=test/tmp_output
  ```

What's funny is that Sony has done this before![0] I've had a personal boycott against Sony products due to this.

  "The feature was controversially removed by Sony since system firmware update 3.21, released on April 1, 2010.[2] A class action lawsuit was filed against Sony on behalf of users, but was dismissed with prejudice in 2011 by a federal judge. The judge stated: "As a legal matter, ... plaintiffs have failed to allege facts or articulate a theory on which Sony may be held liable."[3] However, this decision was overturned in a 2014 appellate court decision[4] finding that plaintiffs had indeed made clear and sufficiently substantial claims. Ultimately, in 2016, Sony settled with users who had installed Linux or had purchased a PlayStation 3 based upon the availability of OtherOS."

Live Kernel Patching has been around for about 20 years[-1] now.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux[1] and Oracle (Enterprise Linux) Unbreakable Linux[2] both use it as a selling point.

This feature is still a bit ad hoc because, in most setups, rebooting a system isn't a huge burden and is much simpler than using boutique commands to live-patch it.

That's not quite true, you just need to add the `insecure-registries`[1] option with a list of either IP (or ip ranges) or hostnames that you want to allow without TLS.

```/etc/docker/daemon.json

  {
    "insecure-registries": ["10.100.0.0/24", "registry.yourmom.example.com:5000"]
  }
```

I’ve always managed this problem in a different way. I don’t know if my way is better, but it works really well for me.

I treat my powerful desktop computer as my main machine. Then I have a bunch of laptops.

Then I just rsync my entire home directory out to all the laptops.

From there. The rule is quite simple. Any file created on a laptop are considered ephemeral. If I create data that I have to keep. It gets rsynced back the other direction to the main machine.

This process has served me well for at least 15 years now and is supported by a small handful of shell scripts to automate this process

That video makes a lot of claims that sound reasonable, but doesn't provide data to back it up.

For example, in the first 30 seconds, he says that at the beginning of the Iran War, AI was used to strike 900 targets in 12 hours. Which he calls "unprecedented" but then never backs up.

For context, in the 1991 Gulf War "Operation Desert Storm" the U.S. struck about 1500 targets[1][2][3] in 12 hours.

And gps guided missiles were doing that since the 80s. Humans are already really good at killing each other. Yeah it sucks the tech will be used for that.

But it changes little.

This is one of my favorite articles on validating emails using RegEx, I fondly remember reading it over 15 years ago. It's stuck with me ever since.

On desktop Firefox, if you scroll while the mouse is on the top half of the first row of images, it goes very wonky.

Unless I greatly misunderstood. That's a misleading title, there's no running of Doom code.

They're displaying screenshots on E. coli, which is very cool!

This has been my go-to for discovering new things to watch for 15 years. If something doesn't show up in the top-100 list, I'm generally unaware of it.
