Programmer Humor@programming.dev•I_fucking_hate_them_now
2·5 months agoYou can just start the path with a quote and it will auto complete with spaces. I spend a lot of time correcting files with spaces replaced now. The spaces are better. I think music is the most annoying, since I like to use tools like EasyTag to extract metadata from filenames.
So please stop.naming_files.like_this.its_stupid

Technology@lemmy.world•Roblox, Discord sued after 15-year-old boy was allegedly groomed online before he died by suicideEnglish
1·5 months agoThey’re completely opt-in for server admins and use publicly available information to ban users seen logged into “condos” which are sexually explicit and used to groom children. It’s a system called Ro-Cleaner (among others) that allow moderators to blanket ban these people.
The fact is that Discord and Roblox aren’t doing anything to prevent this activity despite being responsible for facilitating it (condos are published on private Discord servers). When people report these servers or the condos they refuse to do anything meaningful.
I haven’t actually seen any evidence of doxxing/harassment. The system does not collect information other than usernames and the activities of those users in Roblox, both of which are publicly available. I would be interested in hearing whatever information you may have on this.

3DPrinting@lemmy.world•designing the strongest 3d printed hook competition - Tom Stanton 2nd channelEnglish
2·5 months agoThis is really cool! I’d be interested to find out what lower cost / recycled materials can achieve with this design. Also designs for the other connecting pieces like chains etc

Technology@lemmy.world•Roblox, Discord sued after 15-year-old boy was allegedly groomed online before he died by suicideEnglish
111·5 months agoDiscord has been taking down free bot systems that people have created to cross check user history and keep them away from minors by banning them from all servers that subscribe to the service. It was entirely opt in and discord obviously doesn’t care that people are groomed they are in fact facilitating in and blocking any organized efforts to stop predators.

Linux@programming.dev•Initrd Support Could Finally Be On Its Way To Being Removed From The Linux Kernel
52·6 months agoClearly post does not understand kernel booting. Initrd will never go away, you need a way to tell the kernel to start systemd, which is usually part of initramfs. Both can be compiled as part of the kernel image which can be directly booted from EFI. So basically EFI->Kernel->Decompress InitramFS->Run Initrd Boot Script (usually ends by kicking off SystemD). Initramfs is compressed to reduce boot partition usage, load faster into ram (more noticeable on HDD). You want the bare minimum of kernel modules available in initramfs to load storage drivers, filesystem, LVM, LUKS. Everything else should be modules on the root filesystem, unless it needed for boot. You can compile these static into the kernel too. Generally modules are preferable as they can be unloaded/reloaded if there is an issue. Also updating initramfs modules is annoying. I wrote my own initrd scripts and custom initramfs. You can build it all with bash scripts and configure the kernel to include the payload.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Round Two: Can I manage to set up Jellyfin correctly this time?English
82·6 months agoIt’s perfectly fine to host jellyfin online. Use a proxy server to enable TLS and do not use default ports 80/443. Use letsencrypt for free certificates. No need for VPN to access here either. Do not expose any other ports such as SSH on default ports. Lock down your jellyfin server and any other related services behind a VPN service and block access to Internet through other interfaces (except for port forwards on your ISP for jelly). Go high on port ranges since they typically aren’t scanned or blocked. Go dual stack for best results and don’t use your router address for IPv6 more than likely you have your own /64 choose a different address for port forwards. Do not assign this address to your internal servers. Use a reserved unrouted IPv6 range internally and do NAT6. Do not allow any raw IPv6 internet access

Linux@lemmy.ml•Is KDE actually good or it is overrated? Or I was just unlucky because of prebuilt distros?
1·10 months agoThis happens on slower USB devices the data is buffered and the write won’t be complete right away. You can use the “sync” command and wait until it completes to make sure it’s done before you unmount the device. These days KDE shouldn’t let you unmount before it’s done though.

Linux@lemmy.ml•After many years on GNOME, I finally switched to Plasma.
2·1 year agoI stopped using gnome after they removed the ability to edit the menu without going through a bunch of hoops. Their idea of removing complexity involved removing choice and customization. KDE has had superior multi monitor support for a long time.

3·1 year agoYeah I’m surprised because my understanding was a lot of businesses were paying so it’s hard to wrap my head around why someone would want to do that now.

Technology@lemmy.world•Let's Encrypt Announces New-Certificate-Every-6-Days OfferingEnglish
1·1 year agoTechnically all certificates are pinned, especially with public CAs, most OS package the latest CA certs which will all go out of style within 10 years or so. You can see this by loading up any old distro or defunct version of windows.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Complete history of Ubuntu: a lot of highs, a lot of lows
5·1 year agoI’d still be using Ubuntu sometimes if it weren’t for the snaps thing. They only make sense for proprietary software… but snaps still suck. I don’t like packaged software. They contain all kinds of things that can’t be updated. The app store was getting better before all that changed. Now Debian seems better, but I still prefer source based distros like Gentoo because the ingredients come with recipes.

10·1 year agoSupport matrix!! It already has international support, just needs to be a bit better with stickers and qol stuff. I’ve been using it for years. It’s nice to know I don’t have to worry about my privacy at all with chat rooms that can continue on without the original server.

Technology@lemmy.world•Plex; Introducing Plex Photos BetaEnglish
2·1 year agoI added whisper and have never looked back. Sometimes it’s not exactly right but it’s usually obvious and funny 🤣

They definitely can track you just based on your RF profile a lot of big stores have these orb things that aggregate everything… Bluetooth, Cellular, WiFi signals and can track you wherever you go in the store along with video, at which point you buy alcohol and a computer scans your ID or you use a credit card and bam you are fucked. ID barcodes also include your address. It’s also the easiest one to fake.
