Great article! I discovered ssh-tpm-agent last year and was surprised that all my ThinkPads have hardware TPM, even one from 2018! I've switched over to using it for everything and there are no more private keys on my devices.

I also have a Yubikey but it's been a few years since I tried it for ssh keys. I use it as a regular security key. Maybe I should try it for ssh keys as it sounds like the tooling has improved.

I think that it was posted in regards to the recent news, see: Postman silently auto-installs AI plugins and attempts to share all API data.

My preference is not connecting the TV to the network at all, and using an Apple TV via HDMI.

Three Body Problem :)

I have seen the Arc posts here and on r/browsers over the years so I am loosely familiar with it, but what is Dia? The post doesn't say and doesn't even link to it. Venture capital funded, closed source, and AI... doesn't sound good.

Posting from Ladybird BTW (compiled from git today), which is starting to take shape!

Impressive. How can we use AVIF from Java? I have a Java application that relies on ImageMagick, which seems to use libheif for AVIF rather than libavif (avifenc).

The subtitle doesn't make sense:

> Investigators also sought permission to use an invasive surveillance tool called a cell-site simulators against journalist Georgia Fort and a Minnesota state Senate candidate.

"a cell-site simulators"?

Thanks. I tried this on Firefox for Android and each time I close the browser and load the page my fingerprint ID is different. So it seems to work. Have you had any sites break with this extension installed?

I have 23 currently. It's surprising how fast it happened... I don't have any problems, but I don't pay much attention to it and apps seem to update automatically sometimes and after a manual refresh other times.

Up voting based on the title alone, though I'm not expecting much.

If we could have a similar experience to Intel-based ThinkPad Carbon X1 or T series with performance, graphics, Wi-Fi, battery life, suspend/resume, external displays, etc, that would be awesome!

Apple hardware is awesome but I want to run Linux.

Cool! Unfortunately I switched to Obtanium a year or so ago. I get all my apps from GitHub releases straight from the developers now.

After discovering music I like on YouTube or whatever, I buy albums on Bandcamp and Qobuz if possible, and Amazon as a last resort. Then I host them on my personal Navidrome server to enjoy without involving any big tech.

This is nice to see. I've been a long-time contributor to OpenStreetMap and a long-time user of applications in the ecosystem. I recently tried the CoMaps fork of Organic Maps and was surprised by a few quality of life improvements. For example, the one named in the article about being able to receive periodic map updates outside of the monthly application update cycle. Another subtle example is the color scheme in CoMaps being slightly more pleasant.

My personal laptop is a 2018 ThinkPad Carbon X1 Gen 6. It's eight years old now. Still running Linux pretty well, but I really need to figure out what to do for a replacement sooner than later...

So far all the comments discuss whether this is due to LLM slop, plagiarism avoidance, or translation issues. I want to know how these passed the peer review process.

This will resonate with anyone who operates a public-facing website and doesn't work at a big tech company. In the past few years I have also been down this exact same road. I'm desperately trying to avoid resorting to Cloudflare, but I'm running out of time and patience to keep tweaking nginx and firewall rules every few weeks.

I had initial success with https://git.gammaspectra.live/git/go-away as a more powerful and more reasonable self-hosted alternative to Cloudflare than Anubis, but it seems to have gone unmaintained. There is also https://github.com/dgl/haphash if you run HAProxy, though I have not tried it.

On that note, does anyone know what happened to Ted Unangst aka tedu? He was a prolific OpenBSD developer and blogger, and he had developed one of his own simple solutions https://humungus.tedunangst.com/r/anticrawl, but all his web properties seem to have gone away recently...?

Any reason you don't use `pinentry-gnome3` from the `pinentry` package? Your wrapper is clever but doesn't work with gpg-agent.

Oh this is hard to read. Foxboron was a massively positive force for Arch Linux and the Linux ecosystem in general! I discovered his ssh-tpm-agent https://github.com/Foxboron/ssh-tpm-agent a few months ago and it is really nice!

I've never heard of that Superset. I've used the Apache business analytics one though: https://github.com/apache/superset. Unfortunate name collision...

I came to say something similar. On mobile it looks really nice and matches the highlights elsewhere. Cool subtle visual effect.

Sadly, go-away https://git.gammaspectra.live/git/go-away doesn't seem to be maintained anymore.

This is really cool. We have them in Kenya too. https://www.colobusconservation.org/how-to-build-a-colobridg...

I think it's cool. Having lived in Jordan for a while I see there are some missing castles there. I will look into adding them in Wikidata.

Awesome! JPEG-XL support is here. I enabled it via the new "Firefox Labs" section in the settings, then tested on https://jpegxl.info/resources/jpeg-xl-test-page.html without a restart.

The excessive scraping and ignoring robots.txt only breaks the informal social contract established over the past decades of the open internet.

The real problem is the companies offering money to developers if they include unrelated SDKs in their calculator or flashlight (for example) applications. Those SDKs add functionality to incorporate those devices into a network that can be used for scraping. The traffic is little, but is distributed over millions of residential devices all over the world, making it difficult to categorize or block. That should be illegal, and that's what Google et al can be expected to be policing on their app stores.

Reminds me of Steinbeck's Grapes of Wrath.

In season 1 episode 2 of The Audacity JoAnne tells Duncan that "information is not insight" and that's a similar argument to this.

I was reminded of this hilarious skit about English sports. https://youtu.be/E_6d3JBBo4s

In web Outlook I *very" often begin typing as some element is loading a popover and end up hitting some key that archives the message and leaves me scrambling to click Undo. I guess it's usually some contact comes into focus of my mouse and starts trying to load the org chart or whatever. Ughhhhhh.
