On Windows the system wakes up when connected or disconnected from an AC adapter. On Linux the system will momentarily wake up but immediately go back into suspend.
I get why this could be a source of bugs, but if I unplug my laptop while its asleep why would I want it to turn on?
I’m working on adding ActivityPub to my Hugo blog right now. I support RSS, but I figured AP support means that you can get it into your Mastodon feed or even Lemmy feed making it easy to follow. Additionally, commenting (assuming it doesn’t get taken over by spammers.)
Which stops malicious usage, but doesn’t stop cases where web pages over use pushState as users move around instead of replaceState. I’ve seen maps that would add to the history every time a user moves around the map.
Flash isn’t dead yet.
I just had to use it to connect to an ancient Siemens building automation system. Luckily we’re replacing it this year.
I’m on Wayland and KDE/Plasma. It worked on GNOME, but sadly not on Plasma.
Not all filtering is the same. Client side filtering requires more data to passed over the network that then just gets dropped. It also means rules that are not shared across devices.
Most importantly, these use CSS filters which are computationally more expensive because it has to take an entire DOM element, serialize it to text, string search it vs a server side filter that can just look at a one or two field variables. Even if it’s not filtered in SQL on Lemmy’s side I’d say it’s still more efficient overall.
You do what you want, but adding extra work on the client side is not what I’d want for my users. Of course, if your Lemmy instance does not supporting filtering, then this is moot.
And it’ll be faster and more efficient to do it server side as opposed to making uBlock Origin handle it.
How many users are using browsers that are old enough they don’t even support JS? It’s one thing to disable it for security/privacy (which the OP was talking about), because those users are probably more tech savy.
Do these old browsers not support DuckDuckGo?
I tried self hosting Pixelfed but gave up because it wouldn’t work. I’m used to Docker containers that are able to just start up by themselves, but the guide didn’t work for me. Maybe it’s time to try again.
Ah yes let’s fire the people that can fix the problem
I’ve been using and recommending Unifi Protect for friends. It’s self-hosted and your video data is saved locally. The cameras require the Unifi Protect NVR or Cloud Key. For friends that are not overly technical, I’ve found it’s quite easy for them to understand and use, while avoiding subscriptions.
One place it would be useful is if you are worried about somebody breaking into your home and stealing your computer. Don’t store the key on the home computer, instead store it on a cloud server. The home computer connects to the cloud server, authenticates itself with some secret, then if the cloud server authorizes, it can return the decryption key.
Then if your computer gets stolen or seized, it’ll connect via a different IP and the cloud server can deny access or even wipe the encryption key.
this doesn’t protect against all risks, but it has its uses.

Unfortunately, unscrupulous companies can build shadow profiles that bypass cookie and storage based isolation techniques like this.
Your browser gives off a lot of information. See here for some of the information they can use: https://amiunique.org
You’re best off blocking things with uBlock Origin vs something that just isolates.
This is a good idea. It’s a lot easier to incentivize a maintainer who is already familiar with a project and invested in it with some money than it is to get a person who is unfamiliar with a project.
How much you should donate and how likely they are to agree depends on how complex your request is, whether they feel it fits in with the project for other people, and how busy they are.
No, the cable isn’t going to implement the protocol. You need endpoints that are able to talk that protocol. That might be done with a firmware update or require new hardware.
I just saw this one mention endurain, a fitness tracker. I’ve been looking for something to self host data about my health, fitness, etc. Has anyone tried this or anything else in the self-hosted or open source fitness space?
Those countries are Belarus, Bolivia, Indonesia, Kazakhstan, Cuba, Malaysia, Thailand, Uganda, and Uzbekistan.
Yeah, I’m a little disappointed. I was hoping Unifi would do something like release an AP with integrated Thread support so users could benefit from the already pre-positioned APs to then add Thread coverage.
