Re:Repair Cafe – Fix Your Broken Items on Tuesday August 18, 2026 @11:54AM (#49347619)
I don't think they're related, but there's a Repair Cafe non-profit in NC that does events on a regular basis as well: https://repaircafenc.org/upcoming-events
Do you use this with unifi equipment - or - does it truly not matter what it's used with since the XGSPON stick handles it all?
> thanks to their buggy ARP implementation, we additionally need to add static ARP entries on OpenWrt

Is there any more information about this? I'm curious what behavior they exhibit / what issues there are

Re:Bending Spoons buying Airtable for $2.2B on Tuesday August 04, 2026 @12:20PM (#49171051)
With my free account there, I've done some wildly powerful things for tracking inventory and sales data for a small hobby/business.

Surely I'm about to lose this.

Imagine my disappointment to find out that this is _not_ about Satellites on the Air with a BEAM Antenna on the 10M frequency band ...

How's that working out for your IoT Devices?
Did they consider scrapping the humans, and just installing co-pilot? heh .. heh.. /s
Adding exceptions for certain protocols, IP ranges (maybe multicast, even) are certainly ways around this, but I imagine with every hole you poke to allow something, you are also opening a hole for data to leak.

I'm impressed they were able to corral people this quickly.

Could this work in something like Proxmox; where you get this installed and configured with some decent hardware specs to the VM, and then just mount your ISO to the VM to experiment with it before deploying a dedicated VM with the unique ISO?

(Saves a couple steps in experimenting)

Re:Minecraft removing obfuscation in Java Edition on Thursday October 30, 2025 @11:27AM (#45761108)
I have to assume this runs the risk of opening the floodgates for potential vulnerabilities to be discovered now. Hopefully they're prepared to start working on a bunch of new bug reports.
Do you have any use cases where you have found this to be beneficial to utilize?
Do this device and the other alternative mentioned (Capibara Zero) have the same level of software support as the Flipper Zero? I imagine the strong community behind the Flipper Zero is a big factor in its ongoing popularity.
Matter specifies that all firmware images must be signed so the device can verify authenticity before installation, ensuring they haven’t been tampered with. Matter further requires mechanisms to prevent unauthorized firmware execution and ensure that firmware can't be downgraded.

Matter states that firmware images “may be encrypted.” This is not a requirement, though encryption is allowed and may add security

I started digging into the code, and it appears that you only have the "look away for 20 seconds" bit coded into https://github.com/s4m-mo/vscode-ergo/blob/master/src/extens... ... where are the rest of the reminders you stated?

Also, you have issues disabled on the repo, so I couldn't open an issue for this.

Am I alone in thinking this website is way too overwhelming to look at?

Images flashing in the center, items scrolling left and right, and a vertical scroll bar.

If you are not taking advantage of your library card + Libby / Over Drive / Hoopla (and it's offered), you're doing it wrong.

Is there some way to find a stream url to toss into VLC - if you wanted to easily watch this on your actual TV?
Re:Ask HN: Discord vs Slack for a Startup on Wednesday March 19, 2025 @02:27PM (#43415617)
Use Slack if you need structured team communication, business integrations, and a professional workspace.

Use Discord if your startup values real-time collaboration, voice chat, and a casual work culture.

Is there a site that calls out how to load this post jailbreak?
Plenty of companies sell their product with 100% margin (look at in-house brands). Maybe not laptops, but this was just an example.

Maybe.
