Why the fuck can't you lock the dock on one screen and keep your menubar on every screen?

Now I have a fucking uglyass notch on my macbook screen.

, come on. You're supposed to be good at UX, yet you're flailing all over the place.

I completely missed this.

I guess it's time to migrate from rootless containers under one user to a user per container?

Did a comparison between , and for +- a month.

Meant for off-site , storing +- 6TB.

Tools used are and . All data is encrypted client side before being shipped to the cloud.

Comparing up-times, speeds (both down and up), and the correctness of the data stored. The last part was done using a VPS, and the data was found to be identical.

On speed (up and down) Jotta wins, Hetzner comes second, Mega fluctuates wildly.

On up-time Jotta and Hetzner tie, Mega went off-line for me at some points (worrysome)

On price Jotta also wins. Mega comes second, Hetzner last.

So I'll stick with Jotta. It's hosted in europe, it's fast, it's priced decently, support reacted fast when I asked some (noob) questions.

Hmm, sorry for the noise. I looked for the linux experiment and couldn't find it. Anyway, I'll definitely be taking a listen to it ;)

There was a lot of anti-MS ranting in the last one... I understand why, but .. it's off-putting.

@thelinuxEXP @tlenewspodcast

I agree, but.. it's not something i expect in a news podcast.

Opted not to go to an office 75km from home because of the farmers protests, so went to a local office (25km other direction) . Road looks OK now but unknown how it will evolve.

Boss is "disappointed". Well good for you, I prefer to be certain I don't have to sit in a traffic jam for hours.

I don't want Chromium to win. Now its monopoly is removed, Apple can now actually invest in Safari so it's no longer "the new IE6". Since regulators started looking, Apple has really put work into it. Let's hope this continues. WebKit runs on Mac, Linux, Android and Windows (there used to be Safari/ Win). If anyone has money, marketing clout and brand loyalty to make a brilliant cross-platform Safari to compete against Chrome. If anyone can, it's Apple.

@brucelawson a duopoly is equally bad.

We need more than two browser engines. Preferably not owned by a mega corporation.

jan,
@jan@kcore.org avatar

@brucelawson exists is the correct term. Thrive, less so, if you check marketshare.

(Partly thanks to Apple forcing everyone to use the safari engine on mobile, and nearly every other browser maker just copying chromium with some bells and whistles)

jan,
@jan@kcore.org avatar

@brucelawson ehhm. The browser engine (gecko) has been available on Android for I don't remember how long?

It is still not available on ios, though. (nor is blink)

jan,
@jan@kcore.org avatar

@brucelawson what was the reason for both opera and vivaldi to choose Blink as their engine? (honestly curious)

jan,
@jan@kcore.org avatar

@brucelawson I loved opera, with the presto engine. Its not the same browser now than it was back then...unfortunately?

In a comment to my partner I mentioned "That's so last century!"... and it dawned on me that this century is nearly a quarter gone.

Time flies...

@haploc I'm 25 years old.

Convince me otherwise.
