Agree on both accounts, I was confused why would the IRA be interested in buying NetZero when I read the title.

I can't read the dark theme for more than a couple of minutes without a headache and eye strain starting up.

A somewhat minor nitpick, the word huge begins with a consonant sound, not a vowel sound. It would be correct to write "a huge issue" not "an huge issue".

I've seen at least one place with many more than that in recent years. If you have one microservice "listener" per queue and another for the database processing and persistence (business logic) and another providing an API for one or more frontend UI's related to it then the microservice tally goes up very fast. It's kind of surprising to read so many comments indicating HN readers weren't aware of this.

For disabling X11 middle click paste, I found an interesting SO post but the best answer I saw and tested myself and it works, was the one by Suraj Inamdar about one third of the way down the page:

https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/24330/how-can-i-tur...

What sucks is I use middle click paste all the time so now I'll have to decide if I want to leave it disabled for potentially improving security.

> a place where law enforcement feels empowered to ignore the law is a place where law enforcement is effectively the sole power

Like New York? The above commenter said law enforcement advised them to get guns which is what I've experienced growing up rural; tyrannical power mongers who are as you said, the sole power, try to take people's guns away.

> I continue to be confused how people use these kinds of programs.

GnuCash is made for common people, my wife uses it and loves it.

My wife isn't a techie, the average user, and loves GnuCash.

My wife has used GnuCash for years. Then she's the average person, not a programmer or techie. She loves GnuCash.

Been using a wireless mouse, Logitech m325, for years, including gaming and it's connected through a USB transfer switch and still works great! I agree on keyboards, I use wired.

I run all my microservices and web sites in containers behind Apache. It's not required to use any specific reverse proxy, nginx is Russian made, like Jetbrains' products so Google pushes them and that's why under-educated milenials assume nginx is the only reverse proxy on Earth.

> the reclassification will give the FCC more authority to protect national security on broadband networks.

It's good? Did you catch the part about "give the FCC more authority"?

Did you ever want to fly first class versus coach?

IDK, I've used Jira and Confluence at almost every place I've worked the past 20 years, love those tools.

Oracle needs to refocus on Eclipse and leave Visual Code crap alone, focus on Eclipse and kick the enterprise Red Hat yahoos out of the Java space. Red Hat gave up on developers when they split Red Hat into the enterprise version and Fedora garbage.

It's probably the most widely chosen language for new projects today across the board from enterprises to startups.

> That's impossible if the devices have privacy extensions enabled

Wrong. Try what I said. It was recent enough the results are reproducible.

> An ad company can no more track my individual computer inside my house than it could your computer inside yours.

Yes, they can and my testing showed me, they do:

Actually, it is, try the test for yourself in your home over a 30 day period. Drop IPv6 at the router and in your main PC and devices by disabling it. At the end of that 30 days, it will become clear that Ad companies were using IPv6 to track people in the household when Ads for things completely unrelated to their interests and related to the other members of the household start showing on each others PC's and devices.

No.

> it's an absolute pain in the ass for bidirectional communication

You're right and that's what I love about NAT, IPv6 in contrast is a hacker/spy tracking digital superhighway right through my front door and straight into my devices.

My take away is, England made a smart moving getting out of the crazy EU.

Most of us are running openjdk, not Oracle Java, openjdk, which is ... open...source.

This is messed up, totally messed up:

"On upgrades from Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, users who had configured Port settings or a ListenAddress setting in /etc/ssh/sshd_config will find these settings migrated to /etc/systemd/system/ssh.socket.d/addresses.conf."

It's like Canonical is doing 1960's quality acid.

At least the garbage can be disabled:

"it is still possible to revert to the previous non-socket-activated behavior"

With having to remove snapd then mark it to not be installed and in the next Ubuntu having to fix ssh back to the current behavior, it might be easier to migrate my servers back to Debian, or look for a solid non-systemd OS.

Actually powercrap is far uglier than Bash, for real.

Agree, all of it, like the term Red Hatter. This cockpit-project thing came up on Reddit yesterday as well. It feels like the podman astroturfing that was so strong last year. It also feels like Red Hat hired some of Jetbrains' hyper PR astroturfers who troll the Java and webdev forums on various sites, extolling the extreme virtues of all Jetbrains' products.

Piracy is a socially acceptable term for theft. Theft isn't and shouldn't be socially acceptable.

174 years, out of a 4 billion+ year history.

Great site, excellent visual layouts, and the site runs on the Apache web server so you know he knows what he's doing. :-)

You misconstrue, I'm not failing to embrace it, I am a conscientious objector.

> There is nothing fundamentally wrong with multiple apps (as in separate pods/containers/processes) being developed in a single repo, as long as they are tightly coupled functionally, share the release cycle, but still need to be deployed separately to get advantages of separate processes and independent scaling.

We disagree on fundamentals then and I think more of the world agrees with me and with the 12 factors.
