lemann,

I miss seeing the “Macromedia Shockwave” loading screen when firing up online games on Win 98 back in the day 😢

lemann,

Same boat as you - most of my time is spent on subscribed, not /all

No need for me to block anything at the moment tbh…

lemann,

A nice eye searing lime green that I used to use a bit when I first got into web development. Originally copied from goodness knows where lol.

Now I use it in my current job alongside the color red when designing CSS grids

lemann,

100% this is the best choice for op IMO.

A big pro is that they literally don’t need any Google services whatsoever by the sounds of things

lemann,

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

lemann, (edited )

I agree with OP here, these results are not great.

OP searched for the redis docker image, not a tutorial on how to use it, not a tutorial on why redis should be run in docker, and did not search for redis docker docs. While these are relevant, they should be further down, not the top result. DDG gets this right, and I’m pretty sure other search engines do too.

For a total newbie, these results are probably OK, but for a technical person who knows what they want literally as they type it, Google’s results are (excuse my french) simply shit. DDG is miles better at handling this stuff, and they don’t need your personal data to do it well either.

Edit: Just went and searched “redis docker image” in a private tab on Google, and the docker hub image for Redis is not even shown on the first page of results

lemann,

I think most people are just used to Google, I used to be several years ago before moving to DDG.

Now I find Google is way too… “tutorially” and “bloggy” with results, and actually slows down my workflow a lot when I’m looking for a specific thing immediately - usually a bit of scrolling to get what I’m looking for.

DDG (for my use case as a casual search engine, and something to search docs for work) gets you to whatever you want with a much, much shorter and concise query, and pretty much always gets it right each time as the first result

lemann,

It kinda depends on the setup I think, especially when vlans and firewalls are involved, you’d likely need additional payloads to make further progress in that kind of environment IMO. Something granting persistent remote access to the compromised machine would be the most ideal option.

As always physical access is pretty much game over though lol.

My cams are only accessible via an authenticated endpoint hosted on a dedicated machine, which acts as a “bridge” between the VLAN that the cameras are on (no internet access), and another VLAN hosting internal services, like home assistant, plex etc.

Aside from physical access, the only way to access the cams (that I can think of) would be via some exploit in Home Assistant, or by brute forcing the password to (any of) my network switches to access the management VLAN, changing the VLAN the cameras are set on to something else (bypassing the routing, firewall setup, and auth “bridge” entirely). Or maybe just exploiting the bridge machine directly and dropping a payload to forward the cams out to the net via the services VLAN

With physical access, you could chop up the PoE for an external camera and using that as an ingress point - but you’d only have access to the cameras and the bridge machine unless you exploited that too. At this point the zabbix client on the bridge machine would have notified me that a camera’s dropped off the network, unless you dropped a payload to force it to return a good status lol

Does sound like a very fun exercise though tbh

lemann,

Very classy merc 👌

The owner clearly cares for that thing well - the finish, bodywork and chrome-like elements look absolutely immaculate

lemann,

This comment is underrated lol

lemann,

R.I.P. Bandcamp

lemann,

In the day and age of streaming sercices like Spotify, record labels/companies like Sony Music etc should not exist IMO.

Back when people purchased their music from brick and mortar stores on vinyls, cassettes, and CDs, they had a place to facilitate a relationship with distributors etc to get your music on the shelves, handle marketing and a bunch of other stuff. Nowadays, this all can be done digitally, independently.

Edit: clarify record label

lemann,

It was purchased by Epic Games a year ago, who recently sold it to Songtradr, a licensing platform for background/‘mood’ music. Songtradr only retained 50% of existing Bandcamp staff (the rest were laid off a few weeks after the sale AFAICT, with the worst affected departments including Bandcamp’s editorial team and customer support. Epic Games handled the severance package, for some reason.)

People are pretty upset about the editorial team being laid off because it provided exposure for smaller/niche artists in a weekly publication. I’ve never checked it out personally checked it out because I never knew it existed - wishing I had now

Such a large layoff so quickly by the new owner feels like a sign of darker times ahead for Bandcamp IMO, seeing that it’s apparently been profitable since 2012 (Wayback link, new owners have nuked this from the site?). No need to milk the cow even more when the bucket is full…

How to enable persistent notifications on Android 14?

Hello! Just switched from my old device with android 10 to my new pixel with Android 14 (GrapheneOS), and I’m missing a lot the persistent notification feature of android 10: I used Tasks.org from fdroid to get reminders in my notifications tray, and until I manually clicked “completed” there was no way to remove them, not...

lemann,

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 😭

NYC MTA sets Manhattan congestion price at $15 for most vehicles, just one MTA vote left before the first congestion pricing in North America (www.planetizen.com)

New York City’s congestion pricing program is moving forward with a $15 fee on passenger vehicles, reports Stephen Nessen in Gothamist, after the MTA board voted to approve it. The program now enters a 60-day public comment period before a final vote....

lemann,

Sounds good overall, should reduce traffic levels significantly and make people consider whether they really need to drive their car in such a compact city.

Not sure if I agree with tolling motorcycles though, they don’t take up anywhere near the same footprint as the average car

lemann,

fair point that I didn’t consider! my assumption would be traffic, seeing as the toll is branded as “congestion pricing” - which wouldn’t really make sense for motorcycles because they make up so little of the actual cause of traffic in NYC (large motor vehicles).

If we’re talking about noise though, and how clean the engine burns fuel, motorcycles are 100% guilty as charged IMO.

Deaths and injuries is a little muddier because there are several factors at play, fault could lie on any individual involved in the accident, or maybe even the road design itself. I don’t think these would be robust enough to use as the sole basis for a toll fee

lemann,

Neat, thanks for the additional insight!

lemann,

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

lemann,

Mic drop

lemann,

@PostWatchBot

lemann,

I agree here entirely.

The article is pretty much at fault here, as far as the bot is concerned if garbage goes in, garbage comes out

lemann,

Adobe is the one company i’d never, ever, ever want to support, especially with a subscription. 🏴‍☠️ all day every day

lemann,

Nice, thanks for the link 👌
