Creem is just a MoR layer on top of Stripe. Not really an EU alternative.

ha good luck. they already aggressively scan and use public wi-fi networks and have everything shipped on a chonky SoC

it's kinda bleak realizing I've been running the same cursed workflow for way too long. brb gonna disable that autocomplete

Porkbun also uses Cloudflare for their NS servers.

A warning to auth engineers: if an account is using a Gmail address, then auth codes from Google Authenticator should not be considered a second factor.

Incredible take. I don't know what's worse here — suggesting gmail address = google authenticator, thinking you can know the source of "auth codes", or the fact this is coming from an auth engineer. I'm switching to handwritten HMACs on paper napkins today.

Nowadays it seems more of a coping mechanism for fading relevance rather than respecting the actual competence.

IMO, PM2.5 sensors are essential nowadays. What's the point of a device without one? Especially for $229. I can get a chinese thingy like qingping for ~$115 with PM2.5 and other stuff.

They will happily oblige and put your review down if the host asks nicely. Happened to me, happened to my friends. Also they don’t care a bit about fake obvious reviews. Not like “not actively monitoring”, like telling you idk if you care to report it.

Sure, but the shorting happened in 2022, when Musk wasn't clowning nearly as hard as now. Unless Gates has a time machine, this argument doesn't really stick.

DNS is fundamentally broken

Is it? Seems to be working as intended. Don't like a specific resolver? Cool, switch to another. Or run your own.

The problem is entities like Cloudflare trying to centralize the internet, DNS included, not the protocol itself.

ultimate

Who knows? Maybe when and if that happens, civilizations will be advanced enough to try to reverse this: manipulating the local Higgs field, pocket universes, and counter-decay waves

It's hard to take him seriously or consider him a good guy. While advocating for the environment, he doesn't hesitate to short tesla, an EV company (questionable nature aside).

There are two possible reasons for this (the 'why' remains -- not enough money?):

- He's admitting he doesn't care about the environmental mission, just the returns

- He thinks tesla is a fraud, but isn't saying it publicly

Either way, it's sus, so it's tough to trust him.

Agreed, pretty meh. Tried my usual accent (the one where natives mostly can’t tell where I'm from) — got 78%. Then went full cartoon russian ‘bad neighborhood’ mode — somehow scored 68%.

you might get dangerous X-ray and gamma ray emissions from its accretion disc

There’s not enough matter nearby to feed it enough to form an accretion disc

we could send probes to orbit it

Hitting a cm-sized black hole orbit at a lunar distance sounds insanely hard, given it’s invisible (even with occasional lensing).

1) There are a lot of bugs, for starters. I've been using it for many months but had to switch back to Chrome about a year ago due to some unbearable bugs like tabs freezing and sync kept bringing back long-gone tabs. Don't get me wrong, I've reported a dozen issues (I have 50+ started threads on orionfeedback forums), but anyway, I felt like I spent more time reporting bugs than actually doing my stuff. 2) Some needed extensions are broken. It's not like I need that many with weird APIs. Bitwarden has been broken for some time, and Grammarly is still broken (3 years in). I tried the latest version a few days ago given what's happening with chrome rn, there are some annoyances still. I like Orion (kudos to Kagi team for working on it) and want it to succeed, I believe it just needs more time, I guess.

Hey there, nice shilling for brave. 1 thread, 4 comments!

Yeah, ignore the crypto and tons of other stuff about phoning home or doing malicious 'oopsies' things.

I love Kagi's Orion but it's still not good enough yet to switch off chrome completely. You realize this once you delve deeper, install extensions, and use it as your daily driver.

You’d need to upgrade the account to a paid one (there will be no charges anyway if you stay within free limits of the ARM offer), which unlocks a different pool to spin up a server in.

Mozilla is digging a grave for Firefox with its own hands, we need something else non-chromium, which Orion serves fine. I just wish they'd focus on fewer things as has already been mentioned, rather than producing many half-baked things.

There are at least 10+ open source kafka UI tools out there, what does your i++ tool try to achieve? Especially, considering it's not open source. "Too complex" is a questionable point for the pros list of a kafka-related tool, to be honest.

I maintain one of these FOSS tools and based on users' feedback, one usually faces the issue of finding just _one_ tool with all the required features, rather than making one's experience less complex (?).

You might wanna take a look at Orion browser by Kagi. Built on WebKit like Safari, but not open-source (yet, as they say). The interesting part is that it supports addons from both Chrome and FF.

As a maintainer I feel like the first tip is not the best approach sometimes. People tend to raise a lot of “I got a problem” issues (well, we all do sometimes) which they solve themselves in a short time (e.g. a misconfiguration). Responding instantly to such sounds inefficient.

Sounds like worth it for an “irreparable loss”.

Which stack/frameworks in Go would you recommend to achieve a somewhat close developing experience? AFAIK the default library doesn't have much and there are no huge frameworks like Spring.

Another big downside to springboot is that by default it wants around 100MB of RAM per instance While it might be not applicable to every app, nowadays we can do native images with Graal and some cheesy app could be launched with under 128MB of RAM usage.

This made my day :)

Oh, was hyped to read it until I realized it’s US-focused. Being a non-US citizen makes the US one of the last countries I’d incorporate in. Yes, there is a lot of services like Stripe Atlas which would be happy to incorporate you for $100-500, but usually they don’t even shed the light at all how you would do taxes. If you’re not a US citizen, that’s gonna be a huge pain in the ass. You either pay a lot of taxes or do shady funneling (like “I pay myself as another corporation in another country and leave $5 taxable in US to buy printer ink”). I’m still looking for viable options to get incorporates somewhere to be able to use Stripe, but the US is a no-go for me.

Enshittify! What a nice verb

No, it’s not? I can unlock my offline vault with no internet access at all.
