That's a fair point. However, on the practical side, it's sad that I would have to root my gf's phone to let her access the services we host.

I ended up using a DynDNS and Caddy for managing my cert.

I don't know about iOS, but Android had support for this in the past. Now the support is partial. It's no longer possible to install system-level certificates. Or at least they made it extremely inconvenient.

Let's be extra safe. New cert per every request

not all phones support manually adding certs

Yes. (to the first 5 questions)

It's both content and art.

I feel like it would be easier to help with the original problems that led to these unusual choices.

You can change the sorting to show the new posts. You can also change the list to show posts from all communities from all federated instances (except from banned ones). I mostly find very recent posts.

Downvoting because the title says "best" and I disagree. Apple products have a bunch of drawbacks, I wouldn't buy them even if the hardware is strong and efficient.

I don't think it's ADD. There's a book called 'thinking fast and slow'. In that book the psychologist separates the mind functions into two systems. System 1 is for intuition, no effort, fast thinking. System 2 needs effort, slow, but precise. What happens here is that simply people are trying to be efficient with their thinking and they use less system 2 which is required for reading.

They are jealous for the US backdoor.

Hey,

The photos look great!

Personally, I try to keep my photos as they are and only edit a few. I’m always questioning my edits. For example, should it be more bluish or warmer? Should I keep what I saw, or make it better - but fake? And that’s a rabbit hole. I also try to make the whole album follow the same style, so if I edit one, I end up editing all of them. I can spend more time editing my photos than taking them.

About the shapness, I'm using rawtherapee, I found it to have a bit more logical UI. It applies capture sharpening by default to raw images, which rarely needs adjustment. Have you tried it yet?

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Afaik, liberalism ambiguously meant both advocacy for human rights and an economic system. To avoid this confusion, the economic system has been moved out as libertarianism.

For example, accessibility improvements of government buildings is a liberal movement.

Minimizing the control over capitalism is a libertarian movement.

There's also so called "liberals" which is not more than a hate speech. We are not "conservatives" or "liberals" in every topic.

I lost my Canon EOS M50 II. Basically my whole camera gear just spin off from a 3km tall mountain in Austria because I forgot to close my bag. I know...

After a month of mourning, I started to look again to the market, but It's hard to swallow. Prices are manually kept high. Affiliate links everywhere. Old gear is not cheaper. An average smartphone can record 4k video with in-body stabilization, but if you want it in a camera then the body will cost you a fortune. Lenses are not compatible with every body, technology exists for good lenses but they keep producing trash. And I have to buy the trash because of my price range.

Moreover, firmwares are proprietary. Smartphone sync apps are limited and proprietary (As a developer it's quite annoying, that they don't even let me fix their issues.) The raw format is only very rarely DNG but mostly proprietary.

I could list the injustices in the world we live in all they long.

But, I miss the image quality, and I need another one. What do you think, which brand is the least like above? What do you suggest for traveling?

(The photo has been made with my phone shortly after losing my camera, sitting there sadly, but somehow the land is so quite and calming.)

 

Hey, I'm not a fan of advertising libraries, but otherwise, nobody will know them. I think this package is really spot on and solves many issues with current web technologies.

I'd like to continue this project. If you found it interesting please give some feedback.

intro: The Missing Type-Safety for Full-Stack

 
 

I have a plugin trait that includes some heavy types that would be almost impossible to wrap into a single API. It looks like this:

pub struct PluginContext<'a> {
    pub query: &'a mut String,
    pub gl_window: &'a GlutinWindowContext,
    flow: PluginFlowControl,
    pub egui_ctx: &'a Context,
    disable_cursor: bool,
    error: Option<String>,
}
pub trait Plugin {
    fn configure(&mut self, builder: ConfigBuilder) -> Result<ConfigBuilder, ConfigError> {
        Ok(builder)
    }
    fn search(&mut self, ui: &mut Ui, ctx: &mut PluginContext<'_>);
    fn before_search(&mut self, _ctx: &mut PluginContext<'_>) {}
}

Here is what I considered:

  1. Keeping all plugins in-repo. This is what I do now, however I'd like to make a plugin that would just pollute the repository. So I need another option that would keep the plugins' freedom as it is right now, but with the possibility to move the plugin out to a separate repository.
  2. I tried to look into dynamic loading, and since rust doesn't have a stable ABI, I'm okay with restricting the rust versions for the plugin ecosystem. However, I don't think it's possible to compile this complex API into a dynamic lib and load it safely.
  3. I'm also ok with recompiling the app every time I need a new plugin, but I would like to load these plugins automatically, so I don't want to change the code every time I need a new plugin. For example, I imagine loading all plugins from a folder. Unfortunately, I didn't find an easy solution for this neither. I think I will write a build macro that checks the ~/.config/myapp/plugins and include all of them into the repo.

Do you have any better ideas, suggestions? Thanks in advance.

(For context, this the app I'm writing about: https://github.com/fxdave/vonal-rust)

 

Hey everyone,

Just wanted to share my recent experience with gaming on my laptop. While playing CS:GO was manageable, CS2 was a different story. My laptop kept hitting thermal limits, causing frustrating performance drops. So, I decided to do it myself and repaste it.

I wrote a simple script to monitor my temperatures and frequencies: thermalog script.

The results speak for themselves: thermalog results.

I wasn't even near to thermal limit even when I played in 2K instead of FHD.

I used Arctic MX-6. (I bought liquid metal also as a backup plan, but luckily I don't need it). I'm more than happy with the results.

My laptop is four years old, I highly recommend giving it a go if you're facing similar thermal issues.

Happy gaming!

I created a lib for designing cabinets. I'm not a woodworker, but I can design some for myself and I found this lib useful enough to share. So enjoy.

We decided to test whether the car can handle long ranges by going to Austria next week. It's a large country with numerous places, so I want to ask your help. Have you ever been to there?

EDIT: Thanks the suggestions for everyone, they were really useful!
