Free real estate 😂

I think so, assuming these malicious packages are all primitive enough to just look for the single file in a user’s home folder lol. The only downside here is needing to provide the keyfile location to ssh every time you want to connect… Although a system search would pretty much defeat that instantly as you mention

SSH keyfiles can be encrypted, which requires a password entry each time you connect to a SSH server. Most linux distros that I’ve used automatically decrypt the SSH keyfile for you when you log in to a remote machine (using the user keyring db), or ask you for the keyfile password once and remember it for the next hour or so (using the ssh-agent program in the background).

On Windows you can do something similar with Cygwin and ssh-agent, however it is a little bit of a hassle to set up. If you use WSL i’d expect the auto keyfile decryption to work comparably to Linux, without needing to configure anything

I think they would start obfuscating the relevant code to get around it

Many ad networks and AABs do something similar (especially Admiral) in an attempt to evade ad blocking extensions

For me it’s the ability to set up a shared instance with the base request URL, and set headers for things like the user’s token, allowing all requests made with that shared Axios instance to be sent to the right path with the token without needing to define them for each individual request.

To be honest though something similar can be done with spread syntax in the Fetch API’s options parameter

it’s got telemetry on by default.

Very, very hard pass. Might even blow out my suspension doing so

A lot of jQuery’s features are now available in native JS - would also suggest just using native JS anyway because jQuery won’t throw any errors into the console if a selector matches no elements etc.

The only additional library I’ve needed recently for (personal work) is Axios for requests - easier than working with the Fetch API in some cases

Disordered; especially, disordered in mind; crazy; insane.

This is hardly deranged, there is a lot worse than this which is more deserving of that description IMO lol

Or about the D.E.V.I.L.S. format listing option on ffmpeg

Thank you 😁

I think the authors should consider watermarking their stuff, particularly if it isn’t something recognizable like Strange Planet

Yikes, that is embarassing.

Is opencart written in PHP? Bcrypt has been a thing for decades now, and is literally a drop in replacement that handles salting et al. If the developer was hesitant to implement that, I’d rather go use Magento or shudder Shopify

Literally rent free lol

Dbrand has a really strong case here IMO, since they pretty heavily edit the internals and add a few easter eggs, which are still visible in Casetify’s final designs

Dbrand discovered Casetify allegedly copied 117 different designs, down to the many digital manipulations it made to the images. Dbrand says it holds registered copyrights for each of these products, all of which were registered before Casetify’s product launch.

Also, TIL:

Disclosure: The Verge recently collaborated with Dbrand on a series of skins and cases

You mean like a share button on a site that opens the lemmy Create Post page, on a user’s registered instance, with link address and title pre-filled?

I think the federated nature of Lemmy alone makes this more trouble than it’s worth, and you’d need to consider that Lemmy users don’t all use the same web interface - some use Photon, some use Mlmym, some use Alexandrite etc. These changes would need to be introduced in each individual one most likely…

I think it’s easier just to allow users to share the link to lemmy themselves. On desktop they can copy the link, on mobile they can share to Jerboa or whatever app, just provide the buttons for either I guess

The community itself has a separate rule 1 which would probably explain the ban

1. Be civil and nice.

A ban is a bit overkill IMO in either case, but can’t see the full thread context because of a bug in the web UI

I’m guessing quite a few users reported the comment since it was posted 3 days ago, since the ban enacted 20 hours ago is a full instance ban instead of just a community ban…

Which instance? What account name? Modlog link, or timestamp?

Anyone can set up a lemmy instance, and instance admins have the freedom to ban whoever they like for any reason, after all they are literally paying for your privillege to post on their server IMO

Nooooo 😭😂😂

Doomscrolling does not literally mean your feed is full of negative content lol, it’s just mindless scrolling

Honestly the GOAT.

Moved a whole ass subreddit to Lemmy, created Fediseer, developed a CSAM scanner for Lemmy pict-rs, and now this 👌 I’ve probably even missed a couple stuff too

Has there been a scenario where the technology itself is to blame? The contamination aspect of nuclear waste is well known and preventable, if costs are being cut on radioactive waste disposal (or in the case of a certain Japanese power company, ignoring warnings from the government on how to reduce ocean contamination in the event of an earthquake) a nuclear installation’s fate is sealed…

As far as I can see, the only downsides with nuclear IMO is that it takes multiple decades to decommission a single plant, the environmental impact on that plant’s land in the interim, and the initial cost to build the plant.

In comparison to Solar it sounds awful, but before solar, nuclear honestly would have made a lot of sense. I think it may even still be worth it in places that have a high demand for constant power generation, since Solar only generates while the sun’s about, and then you’re looking at overnight energy storage with lithium-based batteries, which have their own environmental and humanitarian challenges
