Hmm interesting, so I guess even though I can see this hours old post, my comment should arrive in several days time. Hopefully I haven’t responded to anyone on world with anything important recently.

Personally I’m hoping for a John Oliver + Onion collab with the Infowars studio

The thing is the missing comments are all in English, and they affect entire posts and not just certain commenters so it probably isn’t related to the language setting for individual comments, otherwise only certain comments would be missing and not the whole thread. Plus I already have all languages enabled. As a test I also found one commenter from an empty thread and viewed other posts they commented on and both their comment and everyone else’s showed up. If it was related to people marking their comments wrong I would expect it to affect their comments on other threads too.

I’m curious if the problematic posts are the same for others, for example this thread with 60+ comments is one that shows empty in sync but with the correct comment count: https://lemmy.ml/post/22091314

And this post too with ~20 comments, also all in English: https://lemmy.ml/post/22089346

I double checked and my account settings on the web UI have all languages selected, and sync even shows the correct count for comments, just doesn’t display any of them.

My retirement account has roughly doubled between Dec 2021 and now, I basically only invest in mutual funds and ETFs with a medium risk, low fees, and high return according to Morningstar ratings (I’m not sure how reliable those metrics are but it’s what shows up when browsing funds on fidelity and it seems to be picking good options so far)

I also canceled my subscription because it’s been months and half of the posts with comments still show no comments forcing me to open every post in Firefox just to read the comments. Seems like too many bugs that leave the app unusable are being ignored.

Wait you can train the Futo keyboard? I tried it a while ago and noticed the poor accuracy and decided to shelve it for a while.

Imagine accidentally leaving one of those things open and then ripping off the door by moving the desk lift thing

Oh nice, I completely forgot about the vault export since I’ve never used it. I was expecting to be able to “view” the passkey data when editing an entry like how you can view the password. It’s kind of inscrutable when viewing a single entry currently.

The key difference is that during normal use, the private key of the passkey doesn’t leave the device (or password manager). The passkey basically comes in 2 parts, the public and private (secret) part. In order to log in, the website presents a cryptographic challenge that is only solvable using your private key - and crucially you can solve the challenge without revealing your private key. An attacker could get your answer to the challenge and still be unable to solve additional challenges without the private part of your passkey.

This of course makes it basically impossible to manually log in using a passkey and a keyboard, without any password manager to do the cryptographic calculations (unless you have a LOT of paper and time), but the security advantage of making it near impossible to be phished is generally regarded as a net positive. In order to steal a passkey there would need to be a vulnerability in the software, since passkeys make it much harder to trick a user into giving it away (since tricking the user into logging in on a fake website doesn’t work due to the aforementioned cryptography, the main way to steal a passkey would be to trick the user into exporting it - which is a much higher bar).

If you mean the “passkeys” that are becoming popular as a “password replacement”, it’s basically speaking a public private keypair. What makes it more secure is that, under normal conditions (aside from backing up the passkey), the private “secret” part of the keypair never leaves the app or device it’s stored on. It’s only used temporarily to sign messages and prove that you have the secret key, unlike a password which needs to be sent securely to a server to validate.

You could in theory store a backup on a USB drive but since passkeys are new, it highly depends on the password manager you use to store the passkey. Since passkeys are more complex than something you can memorize/type, it has to be stored in a password manager of some sort to be useful, so you would need to check that password manager allows backing up passkeys. There is currently work being done to standardize the formats/protocols to transfer passkeys so it seems this is very much up in the air. For example, I use BitWarden which stores passkeys, but it seems like I can only add or delete passkeys to an entry, not export them and apparently they get exported with the passwords when the vault is exported. BitWarden also syncs your vault to every logged in device though so you could see that as a form of backup. Going one step further, even though BitWarden doesn’t have a passkey export/backup feature yet (in addition to Bitwarden’s vault export), the self-hosted server also stores all your passwords including passkeys in regular files which also can be backed up (this is how I back up my VaultWarden instance) - although it would probably be hard to use that backup in any other way besides restoring it onto a BitWarden server instance.

Edit: I didn’t realize passkeys were exported with the vault export, since I haven’t used it and noticed that editing an entry doesn’t allow you to view passkey data - only remove, updated my comment to reflect that.

I concur about rechargeables - it doesn’t seem common for devices that take AA or AAA to have a battery gauge and it would be nice to be able to check the level on my rechargeables stock so I can know if I should top them off without needing to put each of them into the charger.

By dropping prices during the evacuation, the airlines ensured that flights filled up more quickly, making it harder for many to escape.

Bro I just… Wtf

First I’ll say, if you aren’t able to boot a windows installer off of a flash drive (and nothing’s wrong with your flash drive and you created it without errors and there isn’t a setting in bios preventing you from booting it like disabled USB boot) then it could be a hardware issue that Linux won’t fix (it’s not clear how you tried to reinstall windows). But if you’re able to get to the windows logo or the menu for safe mode then it sounds like it “POSTs” (gets past showing the bios screen) and windows should be reinstallable. In short, I think it’s unlikely to be a problem that only Linux can fix if you want to stick with windows.

That said, if you are otherwise interested in trying Linux and create a USB installer, most will allow you to exit the installer or choose to go into a temporary “live desktop” where nothing is saved, so it’s a good opportunity to try out how that distro feels to use - just don’t save anything important. And if you do end up installing either OS, you can use that “live mode” to use programs to back up any files from your main hard drive to another plugged in drive.

Is that petg? For some reason I usually have problems with petg and infill patterns that cross over itself so I usually switch to gyroid. I think it has something to do with the speed and flow and the properties of the filament that make it especially bad when the infill lines cross over itself. You can probably tune temps, speeds, and feeds to get it to work but I find it easier to just not use that infill pattern.

Does the other iOS user have 18? I’m the 1 android user in a 3 person group chat and I’m wondering if I should try to get one of them to update.

I’ve done a backup swap with friends a couple times. Security wasn’t much of a worry since we connected to each other’s boxes over ssh or wireguard or similar and used tools that allowed encryption. The biggest challenge for us was that in my selfhosting friend group we all prefer different protocols so we had to figure out what each of us wanted to use to connect and access filesystems and set that up. The second challenge was ensuring uptime and that the remote access we set up for each other stayed up - and that’s what killed the project as we all eventually stopped maintaining the remote access and nobody seemed to care - so if I were to do it again I would make sure all participants have alerts monitoring their shared endpoint.

According to the article, the culprit is showcase.apk, an in-store demo app. I couldn’t find it on my P5 running lineage so hopefully that means AOSP / custom roms not based on stock roms are not affected.

Somebody should make an api shim that proxies openapi compatible requests to this. And since Microsoft is forcing copilot on windows 10 they’re on the shit list too. Load balance all the AI workloads onto both of them through API adapters.

I’m not sure how you figure that I’m “so angry”, I thought my reply was pretty calm. All I’m pointing out is that valve treats their own employees very well, and that if you have an issue with how developers working for other companies are treated / paid, your beef lies with those companies.

Hell valve doesn’t even charge their cut on steam key sales on other storefronts even though activating the key / downloading the game still uses steam infrastructure.
