razemio··on Starship Flight 7
Can you name a space company with less failures? Also I think it is unfair to even compare SpaceX to anything else, because of the insane amount of starts / tests combined unparalleled creativity.

According to this website their current success rate is 99,18%. That's a good number I guess? Considering other companies did not even land their stages for years.

razemio··on Homomorphic encryption in iOS 18
In Germany you can use the website BUT you still need the app for 2fa. SMS is no longer an option for most banks, because it is considered insecure. Same goes for TOTP since this can easily be replicated, if you have access to the device generating the TOTP.
razemio··on Homomorphic encryption in iOS 18
How can you trust any mainstream "working" iPhone or Android device? You already mentioned open source android distros. You mean those where no banking or streaming device app works because you have to use a replacement for gapps and the root / open bootloader prevents any form of DRM? That is not really an option for most people. I would love to have a Linux phone even with terrible user experience as long as I do not lose touch with society. That however seems to be an impossible task.
razemio··on Campsite switches to Creative Commons Non-Commercial license
You misunderstood me. I am grateful they are sharing the source code for review. My problem is with the wording. Open source means something different by definition. If they leave this project in the dust and someone else continues to maintain it, because he depends on it, this would be illegal and they could sue if they want years later. With open source this can not happen to you. It is a huge difference.
razemio··on Campsite switches to Creative Commons Non-Commercial license
It is a 100% not open-source. It won't be maintained besides pull-requests AND if another company or individual develops this further, it can not be used commercially by anybody else but the company who released this. It this fair? Open source goes both ways.
razemio··on MagiskSSH – SSH server on Android without Termux
Sadly, termux now has its own issues since android 12+. It is possible to work around the limitations, when you do not have an Android Phone with MDM enabled and have no problems with turning on dev tools and start remote adb from time to time. I no longer use it because of those reasons. However, there appears to be a native terminal in android 15. Maybe this will be the game changer I waited for.
razemio··on Netflix has open-sourced its Maestro Workflow Orchestrator
Not sure about the others but java is just an issue, if the devs did not care about cross platform and is mostly easy to fix if native libraries are absent.
razemio··on Ligra – an open source image projector based off of flea marked parts
Always this stuff... Seriously, let's look at Germany. Do I feel less safe than before because of some refugees which cannot behave? Yes. Has there been more crimes than before committed by refugees? Yes. Do we have increased gang activity related to immigrants and refugees? Yes. Am I a bit racist? Sadly, yes (I did several scientific tests which prove that I am).

Not for the world would I close the border to not let refugees in. You simply cannot judge anyone for their birthplace. The message is absolutely correct, no human being can (should) be illegal, especially when in need.

razemio··on Developing a Modern Full-Stack Application: Choosing the Right Tech Stack
Here are some suggestions if you ever need to scale.

https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions/395

Never happened to me. SQLite is faster than most people think. When you hit the limits of sqlite, chances are high that you can afford to use one of the scaling solutions mentioned above. Here are some benchmarks:

razemio··on Developing a Modern Full-Stack Application: Choosing the Right Tech Stack
Pocketbase is just superb. I am using pocketbase together with scalajs and svelte. It saved me so much time setting up the basics and you won't regret it once the project grows. Anything works with pocketbase but go or any js based stack has an easy onboarding.
razemio··on Marimo: Interactive Fluffy Ball
I developed a lot with haxe and openfl back in the day when flash got killed. I wrote my bachelor thesis about an automated converter from as3 to haxe. It was a blast. Ported several projects within hours instead of weeks to native webOS, iOS, Android, Windows, Linux, OSX and Html5. Highly recommend. It is fun language especially for native game development. Issues I had where the "final steps". Like on screen keyboards , different aspect ratios of devices (especially android), performance issues which where not the fault of haxe but incredibly bad designs in several projects I ported and several other things one wouldn't think about. It is NOT plug and play with haxe but you have the freedom todo whatever you want.

Also shout-out to the maintainer of openfl and several other projects. I think he was called Joshua (still remember the name even I haven't touch haxe in over 10 years). Without this guy, haxe would be half the fun.

razemio··on Testcontainers
I think as long as you can expose the docker socket (should also be possible in gitlab) you can use dood. Dind has never worked out for me. Sooner or later there will be issues.
razemio··on Testcontainers
Well for the environment you describe, there is no solution to this problem right? If you want to spawn test containers, you need a privileged container. At least I can not think of anyway to archive this without exposing the docker socket. You have to choose the right tooling for the right job.
razemio··on Testcontainers
Ah! That is not an issue of testcontainers. In our Jenkins every pipeline it dockerized and uses agents. So it is not running on the host directly. However it is also not running dind (Docker in Docker). Instead it is important to use dood (docker out of docker), which is best practice anyway. Your CI needs to be configured once and all your problems should go away IF tests have randomised ports or even better also run in docker so that those ports do not need to be exposed on host level. Most of my colleagues however prefer not to use dev containers so randomised ports was the solution for us for now.
razemio··on Testcontainers
Never had any issues. We have 100+ build jobs running on Jenkins and most of them have some Testcontainer tests. These never collide if implemented correctly (randomised ports with check for e.g.) even when run in parallel. On my machine running several docker dev environments it was also never an issue. Can you specify what issues you had? Also I am pretty sure the library does not work as you describe. Isn't it using the Docker Engine API? I could be mistaken, never checked the source code.

Edit: Just checked the documentation. According to the docs it is using the Docker API.

razemio··on Sora: Creating video from text
Then change the prompt? It is a demo afterall. From a creators perspective, those shots are awesome for inspiration and / or a tool to create something bigger.
razemio··on Tenets
It's absolutely not. It works wonders for the community. Sorry for saying, but I am quite certain such a comment as yours is a rare sight in the svelte community. Everything in svelte is around showing others how to do it. Most questions in the forum are solved with concrete examples despite its awesome documentation. People help each other. Good vibes ;).
razemio··on Plastic bag bans work
Ah, that's a thing I hear in Germany aswell. "they..." Who is they? It is a very dangerous narrative, somehow implying that a small minority controls everything and its only purpose is to undermine "our" freedom. Even worse, everything that is annoying / dangerous / anti freedom is the result of this one group "they". What a big pile of BS. Yes lobbies exists, but it is not a single entity. Yes, political parties exists but they do not have absolute power. All these annoying things are the result of several parties and lobbies arguing and finding compromise. There is no they. It is the outcome of thousands of people thinking.

The straw anecdote is flawed. It is a one time transition. Why do you not take the plastic straws (which I guess are still sealed) out of the dumpster? We did the same thing. We are using those during private parties since years. When guests come to me asking why we are still using these, the awnser is to save the environment ;).

razemio··on Plastic bag bans work
True, but who says laws stop there in the coming years? I sincerely hope these things will come aswell. Banning non reusable plastic bags however is a good and easy start.
razemio··on Plastic bag bans work
Wow, for an HN comments section, this feels weird. How can people be so annoyed of a plastic straw / bag ban? It is a minor inconvenience. Yes, those environmental rules continue to ban stuff we liked, and I get it, but it is not like we have much of a choice? This stuff is everywhere, including inside our bodies. Let's try to reduce it at least a little.
razemio··on Plastic bag bans work
Reusable bags aren't an option for you? We have several of them and just put them in the trunk. If I forget to bring one (which happens 1-4 times a year) I buy a new one for 2€, replacing an almost broken one.
razemio··on Over 2 percent of the US's electricity generation now goes to Bitcoin
You could tax mining. Sure, this won't stop private miners, but it is impossible to hide a big mining operation, if you are using the public grid. Most of them are using their own solar anyway, so I am not sure what all this fuss is about.
razemio··on Over 2 percent of the US's electricity generation now goes to Bitcoin
Allright. I bite. Why is the energy cheap enough, to make big mining operations profitable? Why isn't it taxed if it is needed elsewhere. What happens, if there is to much energy being produced by plants? Why is it, that sometimes electricity gets sold for negative rates.

I am not a hardcore bitcoin fan, but I giggle a little when those transactions versus energy consumption arguments come up. Maybe my views are wrong, I would love to check if somebody can change my opinion on this topic.

razemio··on Over 2 percent of the US's electricity generation now goes to Bitcoin
That's me. I am mining only when my Tesla Battery is above 80%. I have a node-red automation that keeps all of this in check. Mining stops when battery reaches 60%. It basically runs all day from April to Oktober. My solar system now has a roi of 6-7 years if everything works out. 2 years in the experiment. I am planning to invest mining profits in other environment friendly projects. Here in Germany you only get 8 cents/kW from the state. Mining doubles that. Sometimes even triple. During the ETH run it was even 5 times more. Fun thing 90% of my overproduction still reaches the grid. My mining rig only uses 300 to 600 watts. Next I am planning to integrate awattar (dynamic price provider) to mine when the price of electricity is negative or close to zero. This happens sometimes during the night because of low demand and wind turbines going strong.
razemio··on Sxmo: Linux tiling window manager for phones
Awesome! Thanks. I already thought about using my server for Linux phone sessions. At the moment only tmux+mosh. Having a DM that actually works for phones would be much better. This might help getting me there.
razemio··on Sxmo: Linux tiling window manager for phones
Wait.... Can this run on a normal intel/amd server and then be used in an xrdp/nx session? I need social compatibility and a good camera. I already tried i3 but it is difficult to use without a physical keyboard.
razemio··on Framing Frames: Bypassing wi-fi encryption by manipulating transmit queues
Yes
razemio··on Clicks – Physical keyboard for iPhone
Same. I would have considered buying this product and the phone (!!!!) if it would have had a sliding mechanism. I miss all the pre phones. Had 1, 2 and 3. I am not joking, I was faster typing on the pre than on my keyboard since I never learned to use all my fingers to type.
razemio··on Germany Ends Electric Vehicle Subsidies Abruptly in Latest Blow to Tesla
I am sorry, but this can no longer be considered clickbait. This headline is just criminal.
razemio··on Moving from AWS to Bare-Metal saved us $230k per year
I am sorry what? I have been with Hetzner over 10 years hosting multiple servers without issue. There has to my knowledge never been a shutdown without notice on bare metal servers and it does not happen often. Like once every 2 years.
