Before you delete your comments and reviews change them to something very basic and neutral?

Chat Control 2.0: EU governments set to approve the end of private messaging and secure encryption (www.patrick-breyer.de)

This would probably fit in better in the technology community and I’m pretty sure it has been shared already, so sorry for the duplicate, especially since it was already on the !privacyguides and and !europe communities....

SSH login without user name? (docs.gitlab.com)

I was reading GitLab’s documentation (see link) on how to write to a repository from within the CI pipeline and noticed something: The described Docker executor is able to authenticate e.g. against the Git repository with only a private SSH key, being told absolutely nothing about the user’s name it is associated with....

If I’m correct, that would mean that technically, I could authenticate to an SSH server without supplying my name if I use a private key?

Yes.

The public key contains a user name/email address string, I’m aware, is the same information also encoded into the private key as well? If yes, I don’t see the need to hand that info to an SSH call. If no, how does the SSH server know which public key it’s supposed to use to challenge my private key ownership?

Most of this can be found reading through different Git docs, whether from GitHub, GitLab, Codeberg, Gitea, etc. When using Git you can use different keys for different repos/forges and each has a defined pair, similar to accessing different SSH servers that require specific key pairs. I do understand your questions, but I lack the finesse to explain it since I really only use SSH and Git for my blog and not for anything too complicated.

There are some tips here that might help

github.com/…/arch-linux-font-improvement-guide

Important to note that restarting or running sudo fc-cache -fv is key when doing things with fonts.

Also, for Plank at least, I have a feeling that development has stopped so waiting won’t help. You’ll need to find an alternative.

Hi,

It it possible that Plank doesn’t work with Wayland, plain and simple.

bugs.launchpad.net/plank/+bug/1632841

The latest version dates back to 2019.

I think Dash to dock is used often.

For Guake the version in Bookworm is from 2022 and you may need to set an environmental variable or perhaps it isn’t built with Wayland support on Debian.

You could hit up the Debian forums for a better answer.

When Things Were Rotten (www.imdb.com)

Over the weekend I watched the first episode of the Mel Brooks version of a Robin Hood TV series. I was surprised with how much of that first episode, alone, made it into the movie “Robin Hood: Men in Tights.” There was a lot of jokes and bits that didn’t really land to my modern sensibilities, but to my mid-40’s self,...

I didn’t know there was a TV series of this. It would explain a lot because I have memories of jokes that are not in the film, so perhaps they are from the series. Decades of confusion might be resolved!

My nieces and nephew had iPads at 4

My nephew plays COD. He is 8. He sleeps with his iPad.

The nieces are are 6 and 11. They are obsessed with tiktok.

My son is 7 and goes to school with kids that have iPhones.

And my son only watches screens when we are supervising. He watches a lot of TV and plays Switch games though. Never phones and we don’t have a tablet or any of the streaming stuff.

It is very hard not to give in.

If you are geoblocked you can stream it with …pbs-video.pbs.org/…/nova5107-AABR-AVC_793.m3u8 with mpv

Maybe just bad research. I haven’t tried, but I’m sure if you search for “how to protect yourself online” some of the SEO manipulating websites show up in the first results.

Ok. Makes sense. The video is geoblocked for me so I probably should’ve kept my mouth shut

Well, that’s quite a lot to learn in less than 10 words!

I’ve never heard their music so I can’t say anything about their character or what they might be like, but I sure sounds like they fucked around and found out and then played the victim.

It does work both ways, as the theory states that competent individuals were more humble and underestimated their skills.
