Sad to hear, just had a look at the readme for that project and it sounds extremely full-featured for a lemmy client.

Hopefully someone can port some of the changes back into Photon, where it originally forked from, or maybe even continue the project, but realistically I feel both of these are unlikely at the moment seeing as very few people have heard of this compared to Voyager (wefwef 😢) and Mlmym

Wait hold on - persistent notifications (where when you swipe, a settings cog icon appears) have been ripped out of A14? Everything disappears when you swipe?

Why 😭

Dang, that thing is the bees knees!

Would make more sense to replace just the batteries rather than the whole unit IMO. Looks like it takes standard 12v 7Ah sealed lead acid batteries, so should be doable for under $120 (if you buy them individually and use the existing battery harness)

I have three other UPSes, but none of them are as good as yours lol:

• APC SUA1500RM2U - was a great online rackmount unit, stopped using this a few years back because of its tendency to overcharge batteries without a charge controller ADC calibration mod. It wrecked my last battery pack bad 😭 plan to convert it to LiFePo4 and put it back into service 🤞
• Zigor Ebro - cheap and cheerful line-interactive UPS for the modem, network switch and CCTV cameras. Switchover time is pretty much instantaneous, worth every cent paid and has kept my network up through many outages
• Cyberpower UT650 - A temporary offline UPS to hold the server gear specifically until I get the APC back in service. Honestly not worth the cheap price, the switchover delay is long enough to shut off anything that’s not a server PSU with massive bulk capacitors

Edit: fix bullet list formatting

Time flies man. I remember the hype for this game back in 2014 like it was yesterday

Free real estate 😂

I think so, assuming these malicious packages are all primitive enough to just look for the single file in a user’s home folder lol. The only downside here is needing to provide the keyfile location to ssh every time you want to connect… Although a system search would pretty much defeat that instantly as you mention

SSH keyfiles can be encrypted, which requires a password entry each time you connect to a SSH server. Most linux distros that I’ve used automatically decrypt the SSH keyfile for you when you log in to a remote machine (using the user keyring db), or ask you for the keyfile password once and remember it for the next hour or so (using the ssh-agent program in the background).

On Windows you can do something similar with Cygwin and ssh-agent, however it is a little bit of a hassle to set up. If you use WSL i’d expect the auto keyfile decryption to work comparably to Linux, without needing to configure anything

I think they would start obfuscating the relevant code to get around it

Many ad networks and AABs do something similar (especially Admiral) in an attempt to evade ad blocking extensions

I hope this NEWAG gets raked over the coals for this.

It’s outrageous to hold public infrastructure at ransom because the equipment spent X days in an independent repair shop - and pretty invasive to have DRM monitoring the train’s GPS location, and in some cases live reporting these back to the manufacturer to facilitate a remote lockdown.

Not to mention pushing an update to flag up a copyright warning on a screen in the drivers’ cab while the train is running 🤦‍♂️

I commend the engineer at the independent repair facility that had the idea to have hackers pick apart the train’s control unit, and the rest of the team for agreeing to it.

The last time I checked, piped had a button right on the playlist page to export playlists as JSON. You can then switch instances and re-import that data back in

I’m not sure about subscriptions though, only really use piped for watching videos quickly or listening to music playlists

I assume it’s a feature to prevent Android’s memory management from forcefully killing Firefox… for me the tabs don’t unload, but they behave as if the JS running inside them has been frozen/paused.

Maybe installing those tabs as apps via Firefox’s menu will bypass this

From GoG specifically, as they patch the older games on their store to “just run” on modern Windows

I like this, but would really prefer if Google works with the GSMA to get these implemented into the actual RCS specs, rather than using specially crafted proprietary RCS messages to add features to RCS (like they have done for E2EE)

For me it’s the ability to set up a shared instance with the base request URL, and set headers for things like the user’s token, allowing all requests made with that shared Axios instance to be sent to the right path with the token without needing to define them for each individual request.

To be honest though something similar can be done with spread syntax in the Fetch API’s options parameter

it’s got telemetry on by default.

Very, very hard pass. Might even blow out my suspension doing so

A lot of jQuery’s features are now available in native JS - would also suggest just using native JS anyway because jQuery won’t throw any errors into the console if a selector matches no elements etc.

The only additional library I’ve needed recently for (personal work) is Axios for requests - easier than working with the Fetch API in some cases

Not directly an answer to your question, but this is a really nice gesture. I’d appreciate it a ton personally

@PostWatchBot@lemy.lol

Element has added so much to Matrix that the barrier for even making an MVP app is a bit intimidating IMO

Yes please. Very frustrating encountering businesses and groups that only have a presence on facebook, no dedicated website or anything 😒

At the moment we’re kind of like sitting ducks until something happens again IMO. I recall reading something on the Techlore forums about someone helping out with the server maintenance for lemmy.one, so maybe that’s been happening in the background?

An update from him would be nice at least though.

If I was to jump to another instance it would probably be dbzer0 or programming.dev
