I’m pretty sure it’s the SSL seller lobby just wanting more money, tbh. Selling snake oil security.

And selling “certificate automation” tools.

The point is, if the certificate gets stolen, there’s no GOOD mechanism for marking it bad.

That’s what OCSP is for. Only Google isn’t playing along as per that wiki entry.

I remember some list of ca. 50 Reddit accounts which you were supposed to block to get a better Reddit experience. I guess at a specific size of userbase, there are always some people that will start to game the system.

John List, a professor at the University of Chicago, recruited 6,000 participants for a study. With permission, he installed tracking software on their phones. And then he made them an offer: for every hour that the participant did not use Facebook or Instagram, he would pay them $4. (Participants only had to give up one app; the Facebook holdout group was allowed to use Instagram and vice versa.)

Initial results:

Facebook → YouTube, Instagram, TikTok
Instagram → YouTube, Facebook, TikTok

Corrected for time spent on platforms:

Facebook → Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Snapchat
Instagram → TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, Snapchat

GL.iNet also has a KVM now.

Or a better SD card. I’ve used my various Raspberrys with SD cards for years without any issues. The only single incident I’ve had was a card turning read-only. Which I’ve only noticed because system updates were gone after a reboot. But all the main data was still there and accessible. And a simple clone to a new card followed by fsck restored full functionality in the Pi again.

I just found a pattern. Monday, where it was showing up 1 hour earlier, I was connected to my M365 Cloud PC via my home Macbook. Then, the appt (only this one) showed up wrong.

Yesterday, I was using that same Cloud PC from my work (Windows-)laptop and the appt showed up at the correct time.

Today, I’m using the exact same Cloud PC - without rebooting - from my Macbook again and Outlook shows it wrong again.

So, that virtual machine that’s called Cloud PC does something different depending on the system you’re connecting from. How stupid is that?

I thought so, too, at first. But why did Teams (using the “New Calendar” setting) show it correctly? And why did it fix itself today?

You’re not alone. We’re forced to use Classic Outlook at work.

I’ve got a monthly recurring appointment for a Zoom call. That was due today again. There was the switch to winter time last week and Outlook decided to “adjust” the scheduled time for me.

That meeting was originally for 11am and should continue to be at 11am during standard time. However, yesterday I’ve noticed that Outlook put it at 10am (and showed a proud message that it adjusted it due to timezone change). No way to undo it.

Teams continued to show it at 11am where it belongs.

Now, when trying to move it to 11 in Outlook, Teams moved it to 12.

And when I opened Outlook this morning, the appt was at 11am where it belongs and Outlook and Teams agreed again.

Mind you, this was only this external Zoom call. All other appointments are still correct. Very weird.

Ah, gut zu wissen! Danke! :)

The K3 Keyboard and the Voyage are the best Kindles IMHO. And I even had the same neon-yellow/green origami case for mine. Gave the K3 to my MIL when I upgraded to the Voyage. And sold the Voyage when I wanted to free myself from that walled garden a few years ago.

If you don’t want to get rid of your Voyage, you can turn it into a TRMNL and have it show your calendar, news, etc. instead.

The important bit is -v /opt/podman/searxng/config:/etc/searxng:Z in the podman call. This will mount your local directory (i.e. on the host the container is running on) /opt/podman/searxng/config into the container as /etc/searxng (which is where SearXNG is searching for its config). Make sure that the local directory exists and is writeable by your user account before starting the container. This way your config will persist even when the container gets replaced by an updated version.

IIRC, after running the container for the first time, SearXNG should put a settings.yml and uwsgi.ini there. You can edit them and restart the container for the changes to take.

On later container updates, SearXNG will put the latest versions of the default configs as settings.yml.new and uwsgi.ini.new. This way it doesn’t overwrite your config and allows you to manually merge the new defaults into your running config. (If you only see the *.new files after starting the container for the first time, rename them and remove the .new part.)

Can Dockge manage/cleanup unused images and containers by now? That’s the only reason I keep using Portainer - because it can show all the other stuff and lets me free up space.

Because

A) Solving Captchas isn’t protecting from abuse/spam anymore. People in countries with cheap labour costs are being paid (or forced) to solve these for spam networks. And nowadays, LLMs can solve them almost better than any human. Manual approval is completely infeasible once you have a somewhat larger following.

Tying comments to some form of account is at least somewhat of a hurdle for spammers.

and

B) Some people want to keep ownership of their data. As long as the comment is tied to my account, I can easily find, edit or even delete it. Try that with some comment you made on some obscure blog 5 years ago; which address you don’t remember and with an email address you no longer have.

Yes, webtrees should fit that description.

Born there and lived there until very recently. That’s why I’m so against it. 😉

I’m against the whole EU construct. I’d like to see them downgraded to the EEC/EEA again. So, yes, I’m also against those pencil-pushers in little Brussels making stupid (to be fair: sometimes, very rarely, less stupid) laws instead of letting people decide with their money.

IMHO it’s Apple’s product and thus Apple’s rules. It’s not about monopoly, it’s just Apple having control over their own product. You’re still free to NOT buy their product.
