Re:Rhai: An embedded scripting language for Rust on Monday January 20, 2025 @10:17AM (#42769537)
I use it in rsmodules https://github.com/fretn/rsmodules and I’m very happy with my choice. Was easy to implement and the earliest versions already offered what I needed.

If the rhai author is reading this: thank you for this nice piece of software

This is only the game code and not the engine source code, or am I missing something ?
Re:Canonical to abandon Snap, remove in Ubuntu 24.04 LTS on Saturday April 01, 2023 @02:30AM (#35397733)
Same here

Also if you remove apparmor, snapd will be removed without telling you that this will break all snaps. That's not how a package manager is supposed to work

can it be a bit compared to what tailscale does for ipv4 ?

Re:Stop donating your customers' data to Google Analytics on Wednesday January 22, 2020 @02:10PM (#22120888)
a few weeks ago my blood needed a checkup. They sent me the results by mail. The results where on a non password protected but 'unguessable' url. And the page ofcourse contained google analytics, I'm in the EU, I wonder if this is legal
Do they have access to your photos when you go to the photo picker when you want to send a picture or do they have all the time access to your photos once you gave them permission ?
Re:How SSH Port Became 22 on Friday October 25, 2019 @05:25AM (#21353231)
slightly offtopic: I wish scp also used -p instead of -P for defining a custom port, everytime I want to ssh or scp on a custom port I have to look up which one of the two uses -p or -P :)
Re:Warp – Mobile VPN on Tuesday April 02, 2019 @04:23AM (#19552075)
You have issues with WireGuard split tunneling in general or only on iOS ?

To make split tunneling work in WireGuard I changed AllowedIPs = 0.0.0.0/0 in the config file into: AllowedIPs = 92.13.14.15/32 10.192.122.0/24

where 10.192.122.0/24 is the subnet of my tunnel, and 92.13.14.15/32 is the ip address of my home computer

this works on iOS and macos for me

quickly switching from topic to topic is a lot more exhausting
