Re:Disney and Warner to bundle streaming services on Thursday May 09, 2024 @02:06AM (#40305699)
Consumer pays for the streaming service, not a demo of every studio. Why they don't do the first?
A decade or so later, but besides that: good job. Maybe they combine it with passkeys someday, because you know.. cameras are a thing theese days. Point it towards the keyboard and get the keyphrase.

yes for example but integrated into the os

Ask HN: New ways to do remote desktop?

The thin client server approach is old. mircosof lately shifted focus onto this cloud windows thing. I want something similar, but not just streaming screen and input. more optimized better looking app for starting remote apps, like locale ones e.g. It's already developed but what is it called, again?

Re:Show HN: exaequOS - a new OS running in a web browser on Saturday September 16, 2023 @11:20AM (#37535551)
yea cool but what OS do I install on server for remote desktop? can use use your browser as client not that thing. no offense. it's just timewasting. if you think rational about it.
Re:How Instagram scaled to 14 million users with only 3 engineers on Saturday September 16, 2023 @06:15AM (#37533520)
this is what work is.

efficiency shrinks by more team also you get other people. if you are working on something you stay alive until it's done.

≠ a job

sorry, but NO I didn't meant to say that. but part of the problem and part of the solution was usbc/nomore usbc.

Do you happen to have that github link with the poc link to youtube?

Re:How Instagram scaled to 14 million users with only 3 engineers on Saturday September 16, 2023 @04:46AM (#37533097)
ah nostaglia. did they implement e2ee? cause the alternativ is to use mastodon I'd guess, which should have e2ee for PMs (right now they are just toots, moderated,in plaintext) maindevs sag its to complicated. We know better. it's satureday morning. some are at a con other still sleep, i hope this gains traction the next few hours. the concept is easy. a workaround could would be cosmetical, but we need poc, push it onto one instance spread the word, enough pressure to copy paste that tested code. everyone wellcome to contribute, just ping me first so we work a little more efficient

disable CAs is a thing

or can you add your own for every domain or something?

Re:How mobile apps illegally share your personal data on Friday September 15, 2023 @03:49PM (#37528288)
It's also bad for publishing (they now use the term too, anyways) all (I mean really like ALL of thoose tech savy people store their data in plaintext on someone computer, they not know what this thing does. there are many thousand on one instance. which disappears. maybe they where ethical people had no dirtmoney, couldn't exchange information to currency to pay the hoster.. I don't know. But you can get banned pretty quickly. Even when talking in private, a mod can decide it's creepy and ban you. they still have the data. you no access to your audience.
Re:How mobile apps illegally share your personal data on Friday September 15, 2023 @03:42PM (#37528188)
to most people YES, it pretty hard to grap DMs from twitters server. Especially compared to reading them in plaintext like on mastodon. you thing meta is not good but it's still e2ee so your better of writing there.
Re:How mobile apps illegally share your personal data on Friday September 15, 2023 @03:35PM (#37528128)
they are actually toots. it's an feature that other people can read what you say in private to someone and ban you if it's creepy (the conversation) besaid feature is active on all instances it's not opt out. no instance has an inhouse fix (think they would post about it, since people like to talk in private. I mean almost every human on earth does use e2ee but mastodon is such an (honestly? the devs are drunk or something really fishy going on there. they got funding and build an client (that is exactly what was NOT need or useable or their thing)) clusterfuck. it's to complecated they say. I know, ping me if you have same thought, it's easy to fix!
Re:How mobile apps illegally share your personal data on Thursday September 14, 2023 @05:49AM (#37506879)
mastodon inctances are prone to this. user data stored in plaintext, even PM are unencrypted and readable by design for moderation
Re:Software control USB power on some USB hubs on Thursday September 14, 2023 @04:26AM (#37506350)
yes that negotion is a specific protocoll of USB-C and was used to unlock fde encryption through the USB-C port connected secure enclave, that was happy to decrypt fed as if you had entered the password. the next generation had magsafe again :)
Re:Software control USB power on some USB hubs on Wednesday September 13, 2023 @06:14PM (#37502427)
I want power only USB Cables. The USB-C protcoll was allready a security thread resulting in unlocking fde and successfull boot up
Re:Tailscale Has Partnered with Mullvad on Tuesday September 12, 2023 @08:04AM (#37479793)
maybe just use LAN as it was intended? wired!? sounds as stupid as it get's to have something that can replace valid certs on your system.
Re:Tailscale Has Partnered with Mullvad on Friday September 08, 2023 @11:09AM (#37434516)
no. you put it public, get public domain > valid cert from a trusted list of CA that google and mozzila treat as trustworthy, look et em. there are more problematic then unproblemtic
