Used nix last year but dropped it after home-manager decided to unlink the apps from the Applications directory.

How is the current situation on usability of nix-Darwin + home-manager + brew?

Packages still fails to get indexed correctly in spotlight? I really like a fully repro environment but the fact that the usu ability was low bothered me a lot.

BG3 is unmatchable, not only for hogwarts legacy but for every other game.

Starfield on the other end.. is the same oblivion stuff but in 2023 and without 2023 capabilities

Ye you are right but I was talking of 3D enclosures where you can put a zimaboard or whatever mini pc.

I am looking for a low profile keyboard compatible with the choc switches. I plan to put the choc sunset on it. I was looking for something similar to the Corne, just without the ergo-split thing. A standard 65-75% would work.

Bonus for hot swappable and no soldering required.

WannaCry targeted hospitals, businesses and similar machines.

WannaCry targeted everything with SMB exposed, blindly.

Also, you should read more about security through obscurity, the fact that "no one will target you because you are a low-value target" is a false sense of security.

I believe the risk of running outdated software is super inflated and mediatic, 99% of people would be absolutely fine running a version of Android from 3 years ago or Windows 8.

That's the same thing people running windows XP on internet were thinking in 2017.

Then WannaCry arrived and they got their data encrypted :)

Perhaps images, video, font etc. rendering could be compromised?

Yes, it already happen in the past. Also the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth stack got exploited, like multiple kernel drivers.

But it shouldn't be a matter of "in the past was X exploited?" but more on having a correct security posture.

Honestly if you are arguing about wasting a "perfectly working phone" you should blame it on the vendor, especially Android devices vendors have this let's say "defect" of dropping the support after 4/5 years.

Also not going to talk about custom ROMs (with the super rare exclusion of some) managed by god knows who, without any security team behind.

Since even the NFC and Cellular Network stack got vulnerabilities the only way you would consider an old phone "safe" to use is just turning it into the equivalent of a local ARM server.

Also pretty fun seeing the replies in the original post talking about how Google Play store shouldn't have malware on it.

Do anyone knows if it support local-only without joining the p2p network?

So in the end you got removed.. I honestly have no idea how they want to do an IPO like that

Thanks. I have never seen the last thing, what the numbers indicates?

What about setting the new language of a post to English? There are people that don’t know how lemmy works that keep on opening new posts and leaving the language to “Undetermined” by mistake so no one can answer them.

Soon, people will join the strange and buggy world of YouTube alternative frontends

Take a look at my answer there. It was my fault apparently.

TL;DR: I set the image channel icon to /etc/paswd and forgot about it, people saw a suspicious call and panicked, sorry.

Is this, by any chance, originated from the sub called ignore me? In that case is probably my bad because is set as the image of the channel. I was playing with lemmy in the previous version and forgot about it, sorry.

It will not work since your browser can't access local file that easily without breaking the sandbox :) also the that alert appears because your browser is trying to load an image with that path, nothing dangerous or remotely exploitable, don't worry.

Edit: I removed it so you shouldn't see the alert anymore.

P.S. not, it's not trying to steal anything, it's your browser trying to load that file as an image but instead of being let's say this url: https://beehaw.org/pictrs/image/c0e83ceb-b7e5-41b4-9b76-bfd152dd8d00.png (this sub icon) , it's this one file:///etc/passwd so you browser is doing the request to your own file. Don't worry, nothing got compromised.
