Re:How I configure my Git identities on Monday November 25, 2024 @02:53AM (#42234137)
Shameless plug for a tool I developed in order to easily switch git identities based on projects: https://github.com/cquintana92/git-switch-user

After configuring the identities you just need to run

    $ git su Personal
    $ git su Work
And all the identity configuration (email, name, SSH key and optionally PGP key) will be set up into the repo's .git/config file.

Saved me a ton of time.

Re:Automate Project Environments with Devbox and Direnv on Wednesday July 10, 2024 @03:45AM (#40924569)
Been using Devbox recently both at work and for personal projects and I can only say good things. It abstracts away the complexity of nix, defining the dependencies in a simple json with a lock file, the shell starts quite fast and from then on you have everything under your PATH, and it works the same in macOS and Linux.

Also, as a benefit, by tracking the JSON and lockfile, the CI can work with the exact same environment. I highly recommend giving it a try.

Autofilling when buying online, having the details handy/ready to be copied if autofill is not an option, keeping track of them in a single place while being encrypted together with other personal info... To me the benefits are many!

Proton Pass supports Credit Cards as a paid feature!

48 bytes which doesn't include the header, which was decided to be 5 bytes because it was "around 10% of the body", making it... 53.
Re:Passkeys – Under the Hood on Sunday March 17, 2024 @04:31AM (#39732861)
3rd party passkey provider support is possible on Android if:

- You are using Android 14

- Your manufacturer has added support for it (e. g. Oppo and OnePlus still haven't)

- If you want to use them in chrome, you need to enable the experimental feature at chrome://flags , search for "passkeys" and enable the feature for 3rd party (for brave just replace "chrome" with "brave"

Even with that, support may still be a bit buggy, such as:

- Chrome displaying the "Google Password Manager" logo instead of your password manager's one

- The app/website not understanding properly how to implement them and sending wrong values / sometimes invalid payloads

But let's hope this technology gains massive adoption, proper support and can help non-technical users benefit from increased security at (almost) no cost.

Credit cards are supported and available already!
Re:Unofficial guide to dotfiles on GitHub on Monday August 29, 2022 @04:25AM (#32635905)
Shameless plug for "yet another" dotfile manager I'm writing. It doesn't get in the way, and allows you to manage them in quite a flexible way. Templating, conditional linking, copying, custom code execution... You name it!

A few days ago, this utility was published: [1]

After reading the comments and seeing multiple alternatives, I tried to Rewrite it in Rust. In comparison with the original, this one does not depend on Yarn/JS and can be used by downloading a single binary. [1]https://github.com/geongeorge/Git-User-Switch
