Its hard to think of any scam that isn't portrayed as "working out (for the (would be) rich)". Again, a good reason to be wary of such things.
I'm totally in favor of helping struggling folks, taking care of basic needs, etc (though I'm not sure laundered money is the culprit I'd offer). But lord maybe some reasoning skills would also do some wonders. Also, Christ, it pains me how often I think "if only I could sleep with myself stealing money from fools". Because I do know you're right, that's the psychology of why get rich schemes work...
But let's put a fine point on it -- that specifically fell in with a rent-seeking company capitalizing on a decentralizaed space with a centralized platform and then surprise-pikachu'd when they did the same thing as every one before them.
> because when it's not on an exchange you can't convert it back into USD when significant market moving events take place.
Weew, well, idk, if y'all know this, and I'll take the karma hit, but the rest of us that know better than to day trade mostly roll their eyes at this ... crap. And if you WERE "day trading" and didn't manage to pull out, well, maybe day trading isn't in your cards. Go watch YT for a few hours and I'm sure youll be on to your next get rich scheme.
Every single thing I own and need to function on a daily basis (other than my immersion water boiler for otg-espresso) operates on USB. Preferably type-c, but plenty of things still need a USB-A-to-C in the mix because resistors are hard, I guess.
Also, open hardware hackers,, my trimmer and touthbrush are basically internally identical. An we please make these inter hangeable?
Using a "thin-client" laptop with cheap default -cafe alliances d chesap ones means I can live out of a bag, using redundant chargers - either a tiny 45w charger that literally fits in my bu^H^H pocket, or charge my laptop, phone and Ledger using a 100W charger that is barely more than double the physical-size of the smaller charger.
Which is why you... Just use the system boot manager to pick which loader to load. Easy, problem solved.
And you can edit the system boot manager entries from Linux and Windows, set bootnext from either one. It's really strictly superior to what you're describing.
Oh, it's because of "APCI" mode working with openbsd apparently...
With Syncthing, 'gopass' and 'Android Password Store', I have a fully open source, very easy to reason about fully in my control, password and totp storage, accessible on all my devices. All of which can only be accessed with my Yubikey that I keep in my pocket and my GPG PIN.
I really wanted to see something like this for Matrix but despite seeing some functional prototypes, it doesn't seem like anyone stuck with it...
Obviously a monorepo of largely FOSS is easier to deal with than random Android apps but I don't think it's that dire or insurmountable.
I hit some bugs, a couple of which are a bit sharp, but wow, the list of quirks I have to remember for nutshell are so much fewer than for bash.
Constantly impressed at the errors it catches at parse time, kinda crazy sometimes.
Oh my god I could cry, strings are sane to work with. I may never write a bash script again (it's okay, I use Nix so I get nushell everywhere I'm might need it, for free)
Everyone is asking about PowerShell. I never hated it, but lord it makes some awful, stupid infuriating decisions. I've lost hair and sanity to some stupid list/single-item-list beahvior. Numerous operators and bits of syntax are just different. Everything about the script syntax is just slight odd and confusing. There's basically none of this with nushell. Jonathan Turner is a gifted person with an eye for language design and it really shows.
Edit: I do think it's missing some important output redirection functionality. You can workaround by using "complete" but that feels non-ideal.
Meanwhile, it's apparently such a sin because of people... That don't bother to lock their deps with a Cargo.lock? And that's not breaking an important convention?
(As an example/thought experiment. I make no claims about the vulnerability at hand.)
Also, again, its like I mentioned it for a reason, see Git, where in fact, there isn't a nameable identity per-file, per-commit, and yet, there's a revisioned filesystem abstraction built on top! That works perfectly fine with pointers to CID content that points to other CID content.
It's almost exactly what is being discussed at hand.
Shame away buddy. Btw I've contributed code to more than one Content Addressable chunking deduping filesystem projects, because they're the future of file sync, and frankly now that Iroh is here, we're likely to start realizing these things in a "final" ish from.
Oh and the other commenter saying the exact same thing as me ;).
I can't stand the amount that folks bend over backwards to accommodate lazy, inconsiderate middle men.
Read my think piece on my ad/pop-up riddled Medium/Substack blog!
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/18733 you sure it's not supported?
Somethings are actually indeed worth the friction-full conversations of "no, sorry please use (anything else) to chat with me".
And in fact CID and chunking is what makes this possible...
Ipfs is in fact ripe and perfect for some of these sorts of things and I highly suspect we're going to see more innovation in this space, in applications that are actually pushing the envelope, now that there's a sold rust impl
This is probably the single best thing to happen for ipfs in 3+ years. Bravo, I actually have hope in ipfs again.
The messaging on the site makes me think I'm not alone in feeling this, and that excites me even more.
Elon is projecting here. Big time. I feel like I can just see the impotent self-victimization and glorification between the lines. And walking in with a sink and Tesla engineers to "review Twitters code". Better watch my tongue, but l-o-l.
Please, you must understand, you devalue your point by demonstrating that you either don't understand the layering at play here, and where the real risks are, or you don't care to advocate in any sort of meaningful or compelling way. Instead, you just repeated FUD and waved your arms more. Again, about something we probably agree about, but is simply not at hand here.
I mean the issue that you're worried about? How about the millions of capable smartphones being tossed because of closed bootloaders? Android manufacturers, Google's Nest and Chromecast products, and Apple's iOS devices here are far greater offenders. And just more insidious. My 3 year old phone that works damn fine is considered literal garbage by Google (no security updates, means I use Lineage, means I can't bank, watch Netflix, use credit card apps, and more). Microsoft has never used security features to invalidate my old hardware. Ever.
Again, totally tangential from whether or not SystemD has first-rate support for this (mostly because at this point it's about UX and distro mechanics such that users and distros can freely secure their computers. The functionality to just lock-er-down has been here. For a decade). This issue is about capitalism, economic incentives, social politics, etc. But, I don't expect that conversation to play out on this site much.
Finally, Pixel and Chromebook prove that secure computing AND user freedom CAN be respected and can be user-empowering. Please, if you care, advocate for their models. (Which, again, I can also do on all x86 Microsoft devices and Microsoft Surface ARM, at least, today).
Sorry, but I expect my Linux install to be at least as secure as my Windows (Pro) installation. And without this, it's not. It's that simple. In years, most of you will be benefiting from this, it will become table stakes and the FUD will subside.
It's hard to really read this thread. If you care about user freedom, this sure ain't got nothing to do with it. Other than giving me the freedom to have a more secure computer.
Just sad to see the FUD cause people to just get so activated without even understanding the stakes at hand. (Think. It's not like MS is watching this feature to decide whether or not to allow user-key-enrollment on the ARM Surface).
