I am surprised no one has mentioned the new Gnome sharing Extend feature[1]. It also uses RDP, but you enable it and it "just works," including input events from the remote device onto the virtual screen. I've used Synergy/Barrier/Waynergy for years, but this is a good way to add a screen anywhere that supports RDP (Android, ChromeOS, etc). My main reason to explore it is to extend to a nice high resolution OLED tablet. Latency is quite low, as long as you don't try to watch a high resolution video.

> That's not what the Australian health authorities are saying. They aren't just saying that "the benefits of a fourth might not justify it", they are saying "(for healthy young people) the health risks of the fourth dose likely outweigh the health benefits"–your rephrasing ignores that safety risk aspect.

This is a red herring.

It's irrelevant if anyone feels that the 3rd or 4th or 5th dose of Pfiser's increases health risks. The problem is the misrepresentation of these findings. You cannot in good faith jump from "a residual number of people experience health issues when taking the 4th or 5th dose of Pfiser's vaccine" to "do not take any vaccine at all ever or you'll die" specially when they deny that COVID poses a threat and already killed over 6million people.

You're talking about health concerns of taking a vaccine when not taking the vaccine poses a far greater threat, and somehow that's left out of the equation. That's the problem: the disingenuous misrepresentation of the problem.

Poetry was the best pragmatic tool for python at one point, but it certainly was the developers project. That is to say, it introduced different and unfamiliar version specifiers to python, these are common place in other ecosystems, but this definitely was one of the barriers to success. Another came down to the applications code style and architecture, poetry is not written well, it tried to reinvent everything from the ground up in python package management, including it's own dependency resolution algorithm and cli library. I never could use it in isolation either, always had to combine it with other tools like Make. I once looked to contribute to poetry, it didn't take long for me to realise that it was poorly written and most of the new development efforts (e.g. the plugin system) were slowly developed by the project creator seemingly in isolation, meanwhile the rest of the development on the project slowly ground to a snails pace, at one point recently no new version (major, minor or patch) had been released in almost 18 months while the bug reports, issues and PRs stacked up, none addressed. Some of the most egregious issues were bugs in the private package repository support, some providers just wouldn't work and this can be a mandatory requirement for some organisations. One of the worst and most damning things about poetry, when it was actually releasing updates, was the regressions, it happened every single time, without fail, you only need to search GitHub issues for the proof. There are so many things that it could do that it does not, probably due to a poorly written foundation, a lack of leadership or organisation, almost definitely all of the above. Now it's just a tool that half works and has created a lot of animosity towards tools attempting to right it's wrongs. More than anything I am disappointed, I struggle to put my frustrations and whole feelings here, this is really what failure looks like from a thousand angles.

Recently I've ventured out to pdm. It is truly a sublime experience. It is everything poetry should have been and with a mere fraction of development team and effort, it really shows how much of a waste poetry is. Pdm has given me hope again. I only wish that more tools like Pycharm would support it, but really the experience isn't missing much at all. For those of you who are feeling the pain of poetry, I can't convey enough how much more pdm is, it's not perfect but if you try it in earnest and you won't be disappointed.

Thank you for your diagnosis. It may _also_ be due to the opposite. If you know anything about how the brain works, you'd know that in general more imaginative people are more anxious.

But the original copyrights and license stay intact, not?

By the way, hard forking always gives a sense of confusion to me. Will both projects have a bright future ahead, or will one of them fall by the wayside. Sometimes it takes a few years to crystallize, like with ffmpeg/libav.

I do understand Codeberg has ambitions and a place in the FOSS ecosystem (that is why I moved to it), I just hope it all pans out and they don't bite off a bite that is too big. No idea about Gitea, as I wasn't directly involved. They seem to go somewhat towards a RedHat model, offering support for money. It might be that if Forgejo will really take off and builds a community, Gitea will base off of Forgejo in some future scenario.

Ensure you read https://ghuntley.com/fracture. If any point of that is wrong then happy to amend but it is what it is. In a couple years time there will be no Microsoft maintained LSPs that non MSFT companies can use. Microsoft are keeping them for themselves. As is their right. So if all these companies come in thinking they can compete with MSFT the answer really is, no they cannot, not without substational amounts of investment and maybe a collab between these companies to recreate all the LSPs that Microsoft is locking down. I would love to see some form of collab…

> the policies of shadow banning and such were already mentioned and known.

They were "known" in the same sense that everybody already "knew" that the US government spies on us before Snowden leaked the details.

Twitter claimed that they didn't shadowban - in fact there's a tweet out there somewhere (I think I saw it shared in one of the Twitter Files threads itself) in which Jack Dorsey himself explicitly denies that Twitter shadowbans. To claim that the Files didn't reveal any new information is utterly disingenuous.

Musk has a disproportionate amount of nuts in his corner. That’s why they’re brought up in discussions about him. It’s not so much nutpicking as it is getting hit over the head with nuts.

If one defends a person who is effectively a cult leader and their maniacal actions, they shouldn’t be surprised to often get lumped into the more fanatic followers as a sort of social collateral damage. Very little about Musk’s behavior is defendable, and he also has a huge amount of unwavering followers. So defense of his behavior are questionable from the start.

I think that ElonJet shouldn't have been banned and that Elon is behaving like a pathetic, petulant child, but if the recent bans bother you more than the fact that Twitter worked with the US security state to suppress a truthful and politically salient story (HB's laptop) in the run-up to an election, then you and I have very different priorities.
You have certainly never worked with someone like this, or you’d know that this is almost 100% how it works. You are being naive in your assumption Elon does shit all, but run his mouth.

I’m not sure why you’re so obsessed with a fantasy version of a man.
Unless I'm missing something, there is no actual evidence of "Binance being fucked" in the article other than their "stablecoin" (BUSD) having a lot of activity. Nothing like FTX or the other examples where the price quickly went to zero, and their setups generally being very messy with the hindsight that the mess was evident. And the conclusion of all the speculation is that "Binance is fucked", although there is no indicators (yet?) that that's true.

What am I missing here?

Thankfully Binance holds their customers' funds 1:1. Except USDC, which they've replaced with a different stablecoin BUSD, which is just like USDC except instead of trusting Circle, it trusts, er... Binance.

Rate limited, so to reply to the gent from Paxos: I did check that out, but:

> Binance-Peg BUSD, which is not issued by Paxos and is not regulated by NYDFS, is a separate product. Binance independently mints Binance-Peg BUSD on other blockchains (e.g., BNB Chain, Polygon and Avalanche) and pegs the tokens to BUSD on a one-to-one basis. This allows holders of both tokens to swap tokens between Ethereum and other blockchains.

From https://paxos.com/busd/

Obviously even if one believes in BUSD, the matter of someone who trusted Circle having their coins transparently replaced with a different coin using a different trust model is concerning.

There was no one in the compartment for eight at that hour, except David and a guy of about eighteen, who, having fallen on the seat, immediately closed his eyes and gave himself to the power of music flowing from the flat box of the player into the black clips of headphones.

Countless examples either way. It can lead to a "nodejs/iojs" situation where the fork happened because of disagreement, and the upstream project realizes their mistake and eventually integrates the fork into mainline development repository. That probably would count as a success for everyone.

Or it goes the way of webkit/blink, where both forks are successful in their own way, although the project they forked from (khtml), probably is considered less successful.

Either way, that it's even possible to fork and continue working on both I'd consider a success in it's own way. It's the beauty of FOSS.

Maybe the best fork win, and also the base it was forked from.

On wayvnc git master and sway 1.8 (or git master), you can script things so that a "virtual" display gets created automatically when someone connects to VNC, and removed when they disconnect.

See https://github.com/any1/wayvnc/pull/200/files

The script in the PR does something a bit different, but it's only an example and can be modified to do what I described in the first paragraph.
It's an enterprise thing. I have seen these dynamics with database vendors: databases are sticky, clever license agreements.

A commercial database vendor system gave us several free licenses (or cores or something like that) for their platform as part of a deal. Sounds good at first glance. But when you shut down an instance, that returns a license to the free pool. As a result, nobody has incentive to ever do this work. Indeed, if you did free up a license, one of your colleagues might notice and use it on another project. After all, it's free.

The way that databases are commonly used, they become an informal API for communication between systems. One codebase writes an order to the database, another reads it, and another reports on it. Once you this situation, it is difficult to remove. That would require coordination between multiple teams, and it doesn't generate revenue.

For a piece of software like this, it only needs to get in the door once.
I would say 'standing still' refers more to the state of mind. Of course, it's progressively harder to keep up with the details of modern technology. But being open to it is key. As a techie you understand technology better, than the average person, nevertheless.

I'm aware they both include the full name. That was not the point I was making. Since the difference I was highlighting was unclear:

facebook-ed: Includes the whole name, but nothing else. Obviously bad and not OK.

tik-token: Includes the whole name. Also includes a generic common noun that relates to the product at hand, and is completely fine to include in the name. Appart from that "tik" can not be said to "imply a connection to tiktok". This is fine.
T470 was fine :). $Company thought that a "T490 must be better and good enough" :). In fact, if you cool down a T490 good enough, it _is_ faster than a T470, but in the end the T490 is useless for a developer that needs processing power.

>Also note that there's no security proof for the MDC,...

I am not sure what aspect of the MDC you would want to prove. The security properties of such constructions are well understood at this point[1]. It is a simple scheme. It has been under scrutiny for 20+ years. It isn't really possible to prove a scheme secure in general. What happens in practice is that it turns out that an assumption is incorrect. The MDC requires few assumptions and is probably more secure than other more complex schemes.

>The paper linked there explains why having AD would be useful.

I don't find that very compelling. The scheme described talks about a false positive rate. Such a thing would not be acceptable in normal PGP usage. I am also not convinced that such a scheme is impossible without AD.

As already mentioned, I am concerned about the ethics of changing a long term standard for no good reason. The users do not deserve the wave of low level interoperability problems such a proposal would create. Usability is a serious issue for end to end encrypted messaging of all types and should be prioritized.
