I hope SOGo’s future won’t be put in jeopardy by this acquisition...
Re:Signal AMA on Reddit on Friday January 08, 2021 @04:24PM (#25690697)
The Signal Desktop app you are trying to install must be somehow outdated, the desktop apps I use are working perfectly (both GNU/Linux and macOS) and I never encountered this issue. Maybe try to get some help from the community? https://community.signalusers.org/

Re:Ubuntu Mate on Monday November 16, 2020 @04:41AM (#25109877)
Reminds me of Ubuntu 8.04, the first version I tried back in 2008. I personally find that Mate’s UI didn’t aged well.

I wonder why this is popping up on HN’s frontpage.

Hi, i browsed through the website but didn’t find a comprehensive comparison with Apple Mail. Why not just using the default macOS email client?

Please, Synapse isn’t production ready, at all. See this issue for example: https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/3364, reported back in 2018, labelled highest priority since then and still not fixed. This is indeed a huge problem, because if you don’t have shit tons of money to put in your database server’s storage you’ll quickly get stuck. Some workarounds mentioned are non-safe hacks and shouldn’t be necessary for a production ready messaging server.
Any idea what's the issue?
another Electron app, no thanks
That’s now clear to me that recommending people to buy the Librem 5, a 700$ phone that cannot pass a call after 3 years of development, isn’t a good idea. Do you think it’ll eventually be fixed?
I love the new form factor, and getting away from low performances AMD socks is welcome. I'd love to see some benchmarks with the Xeon ones.

Can someone point to me the goal of using NodeJs to produce a list like this? Why not just modifying the .md file directly?

And now it's gone, why flagging, then taking it away? Why no infos? What's happening?

Why so much ads on a personal website? Half the content of the page is dedicated to them, it's very annoying: https://imgur.com/a/DBuXPCp

I was indeed being sarcastic.
Re:Low-Cost VPS Testing on Friday December 06, 2019 @05:51PM (#21726826)
Regarding Scaleway lack of rDNS for IPv6: it's because they don't support it. Customers (like I was) asked for it many times since 2016 but it seems too hard to implement for them.
Re:Sacha Baron Cohen Speech at the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) on Saturday November 23, 2019 @03:26AM (#21613090)
TLDR: ‘A sewer of bigotry and vile conspiracy theories that threatens democracy and our planet - this cannot possibly be what the creators of the internet had in mind.’

In a speech last night at the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), the actor and comedian Sacha Baron Cohen attacked Facebook and other social media platforms for enabling the proliferation of hate speech and misinformation.

The speech was striking in its sincerity – Baron Cohen appeared as himself, rather than “in character” as one of his satirical personas – and its blistering tone.

Describing Facebook as “the greatest propaganda machine in history”, Baron Cohen argued that the company, which does not vet political ads for truthfulness, would have allowed Hitler to run propaganda on its platform.

Ask HN: Buying mid-2015 MBP 15” in 2019, a good idea?

Hi,I bought a Retina MBA in December 2018, it’s actually back at Apples because of his fucking keyboard. Problems started to appear 6 months after the purchase and I’m fed up bringing it back to the store for repairs. I’m thinking about reselling it and buying a second hand mid-2015 Retina 15” MacBook Pro (high-end config) for a moderate price. I already found one, the seller is nice and...
