maybe it would get better faster if they made the defensive capabilities available widely right now instead of waiting 18 months

i really appreciate pangolin.net acknowledging a security report from me, not giving any recognition when they fixed it, ghosting me, removing the mention of a bug bounty program from their site, and not accepting the report on github so i cant request a cve for it through them. super cool of them

i got the root flag for last weeks htb s11 box but i was literally 30 seconds too slow to get points :( nimbus was such a tough machine but it was a really fun one

ngl i'm surprised its this cheap and even more surprised that people thought itd be cheaper not saying its a good price. all hardware is a horrible value right now. there was just no reality where it would be cheaper or equal to the steam deck imo this is just the cost of pc gaming atm sadly

facts some packages have really useful ones, discord's let you enable client mods really easily. it would be neat if they were exposed somehow so you could see them on the package search page instead of having to check the source.

yk nixpkgs <pkg>.override is basically just gentoo use flags. it doesnt see nearly as much use since overrideAttrs is strictly more powerful than override and also a lot of packages dont bother defining additional stuff for override to use. its basically use flags when theyre defined tho

the only reason I want an edit button is to shut up the people who are constantly demanding it and shitting on any other new features

ok, deep breath… we're discussing *potentially* adding post editing to Bluesky this year.

a friend of mine switched to linux like a year ago and i recommended bazzite. they've been very happy with it so far, but now they're taking programming courses and i'm completely failing to help them set up a decent dev environment

Listening to infosec people freak out over Mythos is so tiring. Like, bro, your local water treatment plant runs Windows XP, your mobile provider's hardware is older than you are, and the protocol that routes internet traffic is secured by everyone just agreeing that hijacking it would be uncool.

It's an account for Atmosphere apps. It's not a "handle" for the whole "internet". It's not a "Bluesky" account, a lot of us don't host our account there, and hopefully less will over time. Atmosphere came from the community, we build as a community. Don't overcomplicate it. Atmosphere Account.

It's Atmosphere Account btw

IPv6 addresses are too hard to memorize. That ends today, with the launch of my new, free service: sentence2IPv6 ❌ 0788:7b06:edcb:24f1:a2ff:08f0:6525:be66 ✅ The lazy chickens explode awkwardly beneath the mad toilet while ugly dogs eat the imaginary bacon. https://is.gd/gyxSQG

hackerones report assistant could be cool if it was letting me upload attachments. those are pretty important for a lot of reports!

a blocklist of anyone agreeing with this post would make using this site way better

I tend to get dogpiled every time I say this but: as someone *who likes bluesky and benefits from being here* we have a problem. The network is shrinking, not growing. It's shrinking a lot: only about 1.1m people a day even like a post. This time last year it was 1.6m.

ipv6 is better than ipv4 because you can put 4 colon threes in your address

Cat points out a real problem. Rather than “everyone builds their own custom app” with all the overhead that entails, my working hypothesis is that we’ll see an explosion of what @inkandswitch.com calls malleable software www.inkandswitch.com/essay/mallea... A solid core + ability to extend

what if app.bsky.actor.profile records had a preferredFrontend value? then sites like aturi.to could have the top option be the users preference or even support automatically redirecting them and frontends could have a simple "set as default" option in the settings

this is cool as hell. I don't hate pixels, but excited to have more options for my next phone.

this is why you use SVG, mermaid graph syntax, etc - what are they doing over there, don't use nanobanana for this kinda thing

Music Assistant's mobile app is coming along super well! Its really nice having a good UI for controlling my speakers, the web app works well on desktop but is pretty jank on move.

random services are just core dumping for seemingly no good reason. sometimes I ssh in and try to open isd to view the services and then that also core dumps
