The only parts of Vivaldi that are closed is just their ui skin on top of chrome and the tweaks they added. They still provide source for the open bits they use (chromium under the hood).

…well shit.
edit: that being said, duckDNS has not changed in a LONG time, so Inadyn will work for duckdns fine. May need other solutions with evolving platforms like No-IP or Cloudflare as this begins to age out if no one forks it.


For dynamic updating of dns, don’t use ddclient or cron scripts on the server. Instead use inadyn.
Ddclient is more or less just dead/maintenance mode.
also using cron scripts kinda sucks and is ugly.
just use inadyn and spare yourself headache.
You’d basically just add something like this to the inadyn.conf file
provider duckdns.org {
username = YOUR_TOKEN
password = noPasswordForDuckdns
hostname = YOUR_DOMAIN.duckdns.org
}


Dave is a charlatan who thinks that the fact he worked on one app decades ago somehow makes him relevant in the modern day. Not to mention that he sold shitty software that tricked people into fake anti-virus, and got hit legally for it.


Feel free to try out Rust then.
Not everyone needs to invent a language when one can contribute to an existing one.


Don’t see why this even needs to be news.
Zig is just mid anyway as a programming language, partly because its just a new masturbatory Lang for C people and partly because of Andrew’s poor, shepherding of the project.
I don’t think Andrew is notable enough to bother having a full article about the things he does.


First outrageous DDR5 RAM prices now ssd’s.
Welp. Won’t be upgrading my pc for the next few years I see


Uh no. You can get nHA toothpaste in the USA without a prescription, not sure why you’d think that. It’s just not a popular item here so it’s not sold at brick and mortar stores for the most part, though some smaller stores have it. But I have no problem ordering the stuff online.


Ganeti development is more or less dead. If you look at the github repo, it hasn’t seen a notable release in 4 years. All that’s been done is a small bugfix patch two months ago by the community.
The project being based on Haskell code also makes it less attractive for new devs.


SimpleX literally solves the messaging problem. You can bounce through their default relay nodes or run your own to use exclusively or add to the mix. It’s all very transparent to end users.
At most, aws outage would have only affected chats relayed on those aws servers.
SimpleX also doesn’t require a fukkin phone number.


Vaxry is still pretty ableist, I think he’s just better at hiding it now. https://mastodon.social/@acidiclight/115348200226656321


Ars technica still supports rss by topic


Sadly the majority of normal people don’t want control. They just want it to do some trivial task without any fuss at any cost.


We need open bootloader and drivers for phones to make any real progress on this. This is what’s holding back all initiatives.


This is honestly dumb. If you hate github then actively downloading from it and eating their bandwidth is helping your mission of killing them.
Where a project is hosted is irrelevant because if the platform shits itself one can simply just do git add remote someserver and push the whole project over to some new code hosting site.
You refusing to download from github is quite simply stupid.


As if this fucking matters all while the ai hype literally spins up power plants just to handle the energy usage


And I suspect the core problem that has wended its way through the history of cryptocurrency is that the vast majority of people involved do not actually care what the thing they’re flocking to is. What they care about is that it has a graph, and that they get rich if the graph goes up, so they say whatever might make the graph go up. The graph even looks exactly the same for every coin and NFT and Whatever else: x-axis time, y-axis dollars. The only place the thing appears at all is in the title, where you can safely ignore it.
This is what agitates me in the crypto space. Any novel solutions for any problems get drowned out by grifters, freaky investors, or crypto coin airdrop hunters.
It makes the environment repulsive to any sane individual.


Vlc does not meet the wife approval factor.


What does that have to do with the price of tea in China? Maybe don’t just toss around non-sequiturs.
Yes
