0x073··on Steam Machine launches today
Was 16gb planned since the beginning?

Maybe they lowered to 16gb to reduce the price.

0x073··on Age verification for social media, the beginning of the end for a free internet?
I would call github a social media platform. So yes that would be a problem, even if my own projects are somewhere else.
0x073··on Show HN: Posthorn, self-hosted mail gateway
The links shows: gem "rails", "= 7.1.5.2"

I don't know rails well, but that sounds like 7.1 (that is unsupported) and not 7.2?

0x073··on Show HN: Posthorn, self-hosted mail without the mail server
Does postal still use outdated rails? That's the biggest issue I have with this project as a exposed web service and mail server is for me high risk especially with outdated software.
0x073··on I love Linux, but I can't quit Windows
As Linux moves faster than windows I disagree. Systemd, wayland and flatpak resetting my skills in this areas completely windows 11 is still more or less the same.

Additional the UI behavior also more often changed than windows e.g gnome 2 to newer versions many core apps are more minimal/less functions and yes I just can fork and use the old behavior as open source but then my pc is more about fixing issues like under windows.

0x073··on Obsidian plugin was abused to deploy a remote access trojan
AppContainer (e.g. used in uwp or msix)
0x073··on EU Parliamentary Research Service calls VPNs "a loophole that needs closing"
There was a time that parents control what websites children can access.

Now there is a time politicians control what websites we can access.

0x073··on Singapore introduces caning for boys who bully others at school
I know bullies that claim that they get bullied by the person they bully. The bully stopped in the end, but the wrong person got pushed.
0x073··on Sam Altman's home targeted in second attack
"they must be allowed to fail organically so that they don't have any excuse."

Didn't work for a german political party some centuries ago, don't work for this.

But violence is false.

0x073··on Artemis computer running two instances of MS outlook; they can't figure out why
At least it's no discord or ms teams.
0x073··on Microsoft wants Edge to automatically open by default at Windows 11 boot
I mean open the most used software automatically can be user friendly. It's like a Chromebook. ;)
0x073··on You can run a DNS server (2025)
If you mean MITM between DNS Server and CA (e.g. letsencrypt), thats on a level of BGP hacking (means for me government involved) and means they can just use a CA (e.g. Fina CA 2025 with cloudflare).

I think the risk didn't change much (except for big corp/bank).

0x073··on Why I forked httpx
If this would be a tv show I probably would view it, but wow what a drama.
0x073··on You can run a DNS server (2025)
"Otherwise any MitM can easily redirect users to a phishing resource."

Yes, but with nowadays https/tls usage it's almost irrelevant for normal websites.

If bad actors can create valid tls certs they can solve the dnssec problem.

0x073··on Show HN: Web-based ANSI art viewer
Impossible to touch esc on mobile, maybe fat finger but it just start showing the image.
0x073··on Show HN: Web-based ANSI art viewer
Wow nice. Is there a fastscroll in mobile?
0x073··on Way-Shell: A GNOME-like shell for Wayland compositors
"A Gnome-like shell for wayland compositors" Dont understand it gnome shell already has wayland support?

Are there any things that diff or is it just for fun?

0x073··on GitHub should charge everyone $1 more per month to fund open source
It's as dumb as the german Pauschalabgabe, where everyone is forced to pay a specific amount of money for technical devices, because there is the possibility of private copies for licenced media.

0x073··on Kodbox: Open-source cloud desktop with multi-storage fusion and web IDE
Most of the apps where developed for php 5.2-5.3 , as many things that you wrote where already bad code in this time. Spl autoloader, MySQLi, __construct was already available.

The apps are internal legacy apps so I can't share the codebase.

Because of this there was no big rewrite like types etc.

0x073··on Kodbox: Open-source cloud desktop with multi-storage fusion and web IDE
I have some apps that works from 5.3 to 8.5. php has great compatibility, if you don't rely on external libraries or framework and don't use types.
0x073··on Why is there a tiny hole in the airplane window? (2023)
> Videos take forever to get to the point.

I feel the same with this article.

0x073··on Why is there a tiny hole in the airplane window? (2023)
Everything gets much easier without windows, but many people feel a sense of security with windows.

I also prefer a flight without get a feeling of a flying can.

0x073··on Google broke my heart
I think it's ok, that there is a warning on a parody site than looks like Google.
0x073··on The Dangers of SSL Certificates
And it get worse, as they are changing the max days to until 47 in 2029.
0x073··on Ruby website redesigned
The site is for developers and most of the rare species are developers.

The designer fail to target their audience.

0x073··on GitHub postponing the announced billing change for self-hosted GitHub Actions
Then why we pay a fix price for everything, size of repositories, webhooks etc, except the self hosted actions.
0x073··on KDE Plasma 6.8 Set to Drop X11 Support Completely
No one stop you to backport kde to x11. It's honestly tiring how the people force open source developer to support something.
0x073··on MinIO is now in maintenance-mode
"For enterprise support and actively maintained versions, please see MinIO AIStor."

Commercial only, they will replace the agpl contributions from external people. (Or at least they will say that)

0x073··on MinIO is now in maintenance-mode
"For enterprise support and actively maintained versions, please see MinIO AIStor."

Probably yes.

0x073··on The Cloudflare outage might be a good thing
The outage wasn’t a good thing, since nothing is changing as a result. (How many outages does cloud flare had?)
