and yet somehow that world seemed more healthy than today's

Did you equip these two dedicated repeaters with a solar panel?

Nice to hear your experience, as it sounds similar to where i'm currently at. I'm in the south of Norway and there's not much activity on Meshcore yet. I had set up a repeater on a nearby hill, and then one Saturday I started receiving messages in the public channel. At first I thought someone was passing by in town, but I soon realized (and confirmed) that these were messages from Denmark! Some were 200+ KMs away (mostly over sea). I was chatting to people and even able to login to a remote Repeater. I was flabbergasted. Now I'm using the amazing antenna coverage function within the MC app to find best locations of repeaters, which is a fun pastime on itself, especially in a hilly environment. It's a fun and educational exeperience if nothing else! It reminds me very much of packet radio back in the 90s, similar vibe.

Juggling! I used to juggle when i was a teenager, managed to juggle 5 balls and clubs. Then after decades of neglecting it, i picked it up again and i found the joy in this hobby again! I can highly recommend.

Same, 7342. Both in CLI and web

Agreed, GPG is not the most intuitive tool, but once you are familiar enough with it, it opens some doors.

For me termux and pass (from F-droid) have solved my password management for many years. I never have to struggle finding passwords. The security aspect of it is the least I care about, it's the convenience and simplicity of it.

Since the passwords are all just files on a disk inside a directory tree, you can use any old file system tools to find your passwords. Same for MFA. I store the base32 string inside pass and that's the end of it.

I use pass also on my phone in combination with Termux. I keep the passwords stores in sync using git. pass on android also supports copying your password directly into the clipboard, which is especially nice on a mobile device.

Perhaps we should stop calling open-source software "free" due to the stigma that comes with it. It's no longer a selling point, nor should it have been.

An interesting but also fun read

I rely heavily on my shell's history file for my productivity and practically store history entries indefinitely along with a time stamp. I wondered if it was possible to use this data to create a heatmap of how active I have been on the terminal for each day.

No one using hstr? I'm a big fan of that one, though i must admit i haven't used much else other than bash's reverse history search.

What does GPL actually do?

Is this similar to: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40715332 ?

What you call ugly I call functional, to the point and without bloat. It loads blazingly fast on any machine even on poor internet connections. What's not to like?

In my opinion the story the books tell is excellent, after having been pulled in by the story, I would read it in stenography if necessary. I was blown away by the ideas brought forward by the books, but I was a bit surprised to find out that not every person who likes to consume sci-fi is automatically a fan of three-body problem.

Wishing you the best of luck! We do indeed need more browsers

The mouse wheel controls your speed. I wasn't aware of this at first.

Instead of futile attempts of coming up with TikTok alternatives, why not do nothing and wait until the target demographic has decided it's time to move on to something else.

Let's see if their fake news law works in both ways

Makes you wonder how a person can get in such frame of mind that it is fine in their head te respond like that

"Today, the Russian parliament finally introduced military censorship without actually declaring it. For “disseminating knowingly false information about the use of the Russian Armed Forces,” we, news journalists, can get up to 15 years in the camps. “Knowingly false” information is information about prisoners, killed, shelling of civilians in Ukraine. We are asked to admit that none of this happened.

Yes, we can say that the path to free journalism is through barracks and barbed wire. All this is very beautiful, but insane nonsense."

True, but also how outlandish certain ideas were about peeling your house clean and replacing meals with pills...

What does this mean for the future of scp?

Years after having read the trilogy, I still often get reminded about the story and the elements in it. Thank you for sharing.

We demand the cancelling of free speech. People must not be allowed to think or make decisions for themselves, except us.

This. I always wonder why discussions about the search for alien civilizations don't take the massive timescale more into consideration. Say you're watching a summary of our universe compressed to a hundred years. Each time a civilization pops up, it might just hold on long enough to last a nanosecond. We're just living that in that blip of a time.
