You might be able to convince Firefox to be transparent with a GTK theme as Firefox uses GTK under the hood for the window. If you’re lucky it won’t bother clearing it with black just in case and it’ll actually be transparent.
The shader option is pretty neat and easy though.
It’s nicknamed the autohell tools for a reason.
It’s neat but most of its functionality is completely useless to most people. The autotools are so old I think they even predate Linux itself, so it’s designed for portability between UNIXes of the time, so it checks the compiler’s capabilities and supported features and tries to find paths. That also wildly predate package managers, so they were the official way to install things so there was also a need to make sure to check for dependencies, find dependencies, and all that stuff. Nowadays you might as well just want to write a PKGBUILD if you want to install it, or a Dockerfile. Just no need to check for 99% of the stuff the autotools check. Everything it checks for has probably been standard compiler features for at least the last decade, and the package manager can ensure you have the build dependencies present.
Ultimately you eventually end up generating a Makefile via M4 macros through that whole process, so the Makefiles that get generated look as good as any other generated Makefiles from the likes of CMake and Meson. So you might as well just go for your hand written Makefile, and use a better tool when it’s time to generate a Makefile.
(If only c++ build systems caught up to Golang lol)
At least it’s not node_modules
I went for a federated option specifically so that it’s resistant to one company going rogue like Reddit did with the API fiasco and the banning of every third party app that made Reddit great. That’s really the killer feature, if you’re tired of your admins you go to another instance. No need to protest and switch your subs to private, just move the whole community elsewhere.
Yeah, and you’re pinging from server to client with no client connected. Ping from the client first to open the connection, or set keep alives on the client.
Your peer have no endpoint configured so the client needs to connect to the server first for it to know where the client is. Try from the client, and it’ll work for a bit both ways.
You’ll want the persistent keepalive option on the client side to keep the tunnel alive.
They should be in /run/systemd along the rest of generated units.
It’s just not that good of a metric overall. Not just because it would be easy to fake it, but also because it would inevitably divide into tribes that unconditionally upvote eachother. See: politics in western countries.
You can pile up a ton of reputation and still be an asshole and still get a ton of support from like-minded people.
The best measure of someone’s reputation is a quick glance and their post history.
No. It could repair some files to make them playable, maybe, by extrapolating sections before and after, like a couple seconds missing there and there in a movie, but all bets are off as to whether it’ll guess right. I’m not aware of such tool existing.
But if it’s a zip file, there’s no chance it can fix it. It’s much different than AI upscaling, because you don’t just need to find an answer that’s close enough, you need the exact bits because even one value off could mean the gravity of the whole game is off, as an example. If some files are encrypted then all bets are off, as that would imply breaking encryption.
Also I’d look at what’s the missing data. Sometimes you can be stuck at 99% because the only seeder left didn’t download a readme file or something but the whole content is there.
The camera is straight up disconnecting from the USB bus. A bad driver could cause it to get confused and reset itself. And that would be the uvcvideo kernel module, userspace shouldn’t be able to crash the camera.
Since downgrading the kernel didn’t help, and it also doesn’t work on other distros, I’d consider the possibility your webcam just died.
Are you able to make it work on any distro, or even Windows?
Those kinds of problems aren’t particularly new (PGP comes to mind as an example back when you couldn’t export it out of the US), but it’s a reminder that a lot of open-source comes from the US and Europe and is subject to western nation’s will. The US is also apparently thinks China is “stealing” RISC-V.
To me that goes against the spirit of open-source, where where you come from and who you are shouldn’t matter, because the code is by the people for the people and no money is exchanged. It’s already out there in the open, it’s not like it will stop the enemy from using the code. What’s also silly about this is if the those people were contributing anonymously under a fake or generic name, nothing would have happened.
The Internet got ruined when Facebook normalized/enforced using your real identity online.
There’s some value in having open-source clients to proprietary services. Of course ideally one would avoid using them, but since many are stuck with games they already purchased and the launcher was bolted on later in an update, it makes sense.
At the very least it probably doesn’t implement a lot of the telemetry, and it doesn’t require you to figure out how to make the launcher work under Proton, only the game.
Less proprietary is better than nothing.
The logins aren’t federated, the content is. Each instance receives a copy of everything, and normally you browse other instance’s content from your home instance. In your case you’d access lemmy.one’s content from your home instance, lemmy.world. If the logins were federated we wouldn’t need those domains after our usernames!
The email analogy still works for this: if you’re on Gmail, you don’t go log in to Outlook to send an email to your friend: from gmail directly, you send an email to your friend and Gmail’s server takes care of sending it out to Outlook.
There’s browser extensions to help go back to your home instance, as the linking on Lemmy is sometimes a bit weird and you do end up on other instances every now and then.
Which usually you can just paste the URL in your home instance’s search to get it
Everyone’s approaching this from the privacy aspect, but the real reason isn’t that the cashier thought you were weird, they’re just underpaid and under a lot of pressure from management to try multiple times and in some cases they even get written up for not doing it because it’s deemed part of their job. They hate it just as much as you. Same when you try to cancel your cable subscription or whatever: the calls are recorded and their performance is monitored and they make damn sure they try at least 3 times to upsell you, even when it’s painfully obvious you’re done with them.
Just politely decline until they asked however many times they’re required to ask and move on.
There’s way too many software engineers and a constant shortage of doctors, at least in Canada.
I earn more than most medical doctors in my home country. They save lives, while I write software that could disappear tomorrow and no chaos would ensue. But I do earn my employers more money than the doctor does.
The only world in which this is right is a world where you only care about yourself and being rich. Meritocracy is inherently subjective and depends largely of what you value to give people merit, and in a lot of cases that’s “we fucked over two dozen tiny companies with patent troll lawsuits and made millions”.
With Docker, the internal network is just a bridge interface. The reason most firewall rules don’t apply is a combination of:
The only thing that should be affected by the host firewall is the proxy service Docker uses to listen on a port on the host and send it to the container.
When using Docker, each container acts like an independent machine, and your host gets configured to act as a router. You can firewall Docker containers, the rules just need to be in the right place to work.
The sandboxing is almost always better because it’s an extra layer.
Even if you gain root inside the container, you’re not necessarily even root on the host. So you have to exploit some software that has a known vulnerable library, trigger that in that single application that uses this particular library version, root or escape the container, and then root the host too.
The most likely outcome is it messes up your home folder and anything your user have access to, but more likely less.
Also, something with a known vulnerability doesn’t mean it’s triggerable. If you use say, a zip library and only use it to decompress your own assets, then it doesn’t matter what bugs it has, it will only ever decompress that one known good zip file. It’s only a problem if untrusted files gets involved that you can trick the user in causing them to be opened and trigger the exploit.
It’s not ideal to have outdated dependencies, but the sandboxing helps a lot, and the fact only a few apps have known vulnerable libraries further reduces the attack surface. You start having to chain a lot of exploits to do anything meaningful, and at that point you target those kind of efforts to bigger more valuable targets.
You can’t, at that point you assume your correspondent is compromised. It’s not just recall but also malware and credential stealers. Doesn’t matter if recall is taking screenshots, if the messaging client itself is pwned via malware then they have full access to as much history as is available.
Post the Hyprland config too?
Does it make the entire screen green by chance, not just the windows? If the shader applies to the whole screen, then setting alpha on it doesn’t really makes sense and is probably discarded since your monitor can’t display transparency. You need to make sure it applies on a per-window basis for them to be composited as transparent and show your wallpaper behind it.
