Thanks for sharing that link! My brothers and I used to play Command & Conquer, so I'm interested in trying OpenRA (https://www.openra.net/). Maybe you've got ideas on this - I'd love to find a space game that's sort of a mix of Elite Dangerous & X4.

Thanks for bearing with the whiplash - my usual approach with open-source is that I try to figure out what the absolute best commercially-available tool is to solve a problem, then I go find out the best open-source equivalent and invest in that for the long term. Recent example (in speech synthesis): I'm prototyping with ElevenLabs (commercial/proprietary), and then investing in PiperTTS (open-source).

Not only that, I'm moving a domain to a local registrar so I can get legal redress here if I need to.

Not from iwantmyname, never heard of them, but of course now that I have, I couldn't do business with them in light of the situation.

It's very unlikely that anything criminal has happened here, so government is irrelevant. I'm not even sure we're seeing any malevolence, just rank incompetence.
I didn't know about Unexpected Keyboard. I'll give it a try.

Samsung's keyboard on my tablet does Ctrl-C, Ctrl-V, Ctrl-X like a PC. It does more than that. I remember that holding Ctrl highlights a few keys hinting to the allowed combinations. Probably Ctrl-A is among them. It's not close to me now so I cannot check.

I'm using Hacker's keyboard on my phone in Connect Bot to be able to use the arrow keys to navigate in the shell. It does also all the other key combinations that are useful on a terminal. I also don't want my normal keyboard to remember what I'm typing in my ssh sessions.
Question: there would be the possibility to add an M.2 slot to a Raspberry Pi 5 (see https://www.raspberrypi.com/news/using-m-2-hat-with-raspberr... ); is it possible also inside the Raspberry Pi 500?

How costly do you estimate to have an M.2 slot native on Raspberry Pi cards?

About the monitor: it could be interesting that there exist tablets with an HDMI input.
Ask HN: When is the next Starship launch?
I would like to view the next Starship launch before I am getting too old (I am 68yo and live in France). Yet planning for an unannounced flight in an alien country is hard.

I saw it may be on the Jan 11 2025 [0]. Is there some more recent news about the launch date?

One of my domains on Gandi was up for renewal. I've noticed they charged ~$140, while Namecheap charged ~$35. Easiest transfer decision I've ever made.
Oh damn, I didn't know this!

I've used their services for ages and even got to briefly meet the founders once in Wellington who gave a talk on Erlang.

Ah well, while it sucks that the good times may be over, I'm glad the founders got their exit :)
Yep happened here in the UK too
I didn’t know that existed. I’ll have to check it out. Thanks for the tip!
Some companies have always been terrible about this. Fan projects involving companies like Nintendo or Take Two Interactive (GTA) are like lawyer bait. Disney has hired lawyers to sue a daycare center that had (clearly unofficial) character art painted on the walls. It's dystopic, but it's the world we live in.

I didn't really expect Funko or 10:10 Games to be like that, but then again I didn't expect anyone would like Funko enough to make a fan page about their dolls.

Other companies allow fans to do pretty much whatever you want with their IP as long as you don't turn it into (too much of) a business. Sega has even hired a fan for their remasters rather than DMCA his project into oblivion.

When companies do this, I interpret this as the company giving a clear message: "don't be a fan of our work or we may apply legal pressure".
Namecheap is definitely on my “never use under any circumstances” list for reasons I outlined in this comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18091287

The full thread is worth reading for more feedback on a range of registrars, particularly Namecheap: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18086522

I strongly encourage people to only recommend domain registrars if they have verified that customer support won’t completely fuck you over when something goes wrong. Recommending registrars when you’ve only experienced the happy path is doing a disservice to the people you are trying to help out.
Maybe make it clear you are being sarcastic here. English is not my native language, and my initial interpretation was that "they" in your post referred to the "business grade closed source stuff", and that OpenWRT is really a dangerous bet because they are guilty of all the things you listed.
I think GP comment meant that when you link to a Twitter thread, logged-out users will only see the single post without any replies. On Bluesky, you can see the whole thread.

Whilst this is true, it looks like OpenWRT fixed the hash truncation but not the command injection.

I hope they're planning on fixing the command injection. As the blog post says, the created images are signed. Even without the signing, it's code execution from untrusted user input. And of course vulnerabilities can be strung together (just like in this hash collision case).

I don't think this is the kind of advice a good lawyer would give.

BrandShield, Funko, and iwantmyname all caused serious financial harm through, at a minimum, tortious negligence.

It's not uncommon in Tartus, but far less common in Homs and Dimashq. Oddly enough it's usually Sunni husband and 'x' wife.

For example we have Sunni/Shia, Sunni/Druz, Sunni/Christian and most recently Sunni/Alawite in our extended family, all from Tartus.

Our relatives from Homs/Dimashq are almost exclusively Sunni, religious, and tend to marry from their own sect and even city.

There are irreconcilable differences between (for example) Sunnis and Shiites that would usually prevent marriage if the husband is 'stricter' in faith, not to mention the rift caused during family gatherings by the politics behind each sect (ie: Alawites are generally pro-Assad, Shiites are usually pro Hezbollah, Sunnis are usually against both)

Edit: This is obviously a gross oversimplification, basically less religeous more intermixing.
Another solution could be tombstones: When a slot gets cleared and the next slot has an item, insert a placeholder value. During linear probing, treat the placeholder as a normal item (that doesn't match); during insertion & deletion treat the placeholder as an empty slot.

No. Neither. No.

It's the same as whitespace. You don't expect it to be round-trippable, it's just to make the source file easier to read. Likewise I would interpret any expectation of the preservation of comments the same as an expectation of the preservation of whitespace: weird, unreasonable, and probably arising from a misunderstanding of how JSON works.
It's pretty wild how different languages can handle things differently. Even basic stuff like numbers. Thank goodness we've standardized on using arabic numerals most of the time. writing out numbers is a mess. E.g. in dutch the last two numbers get swapped when written out:

21 -> "eenentwintig" -> "one and twenty"

French gets especially zany:

80 -> "quatre-vingts" -> "four twenties"

I'm sure there's about a million more ways languages have wildly differing concepts of numbers from what you expect. Now repeat the above exercise for numbers, dates, money, names, just about everything.
Interesting, I wouldn't mind an Android phone that can do similar, but I'm not looking for a clamshell. For anyone else who, like me, is naive about such things, the key search terms seem to be: DisplayPort alternate mode over USB-C. Support seems patchy.
You can also do it in ZigBee creating a group, if you just use the group in HA then you get the cascading "light 1 change, light 2 change, light 3 change, light 4 change", but with a ZigBee group it goes "light group blah change" and they all go at once.
Scala has exceptions so this is untrue no?
You just described most Android phones. The features are already there. They are just not that useful for 99% of users.
Interview with Bruce Perens: How He Hopes "Post Open" Developers Can Get Paid
iOS has always isolated apps from your data. Android has isolated apps from your data more and more with previous Android versions where I think they're finally on a similar level to iOS (where an app doesn't just have full access to your local storage by default and also isn't able to request access to sensitive directories).
Why have these features built in if you can have a usb back case/device with them?

There are many back cases for specialised functionality like PoS, Ir camera etc.

Also, with many cases you can have devices connecting wirelessly via bluetooth - e.g. I bought a bluetooth trichiscope recently.

Making a specialised phone instead of a plugin is a way more expensive option. And in risky if the market is so small that nobody did a plugin first.

There were I think two companies that tried to build a modular phone where you could eg replace camera
with a module of your own design - the issue was that they were bulkier and more expensive than a regular design - you can’t cheat physics.

Also, how much more would you be willing to pay for such a phone? Could you pay 2-3x the price and be happy with upgrades every 3-5 years, and the phone having electronics that are 1-3 years behind the top of the line ones on the start? Because that’s the reality of production with niche products.

I think it's unifying the two factions.

To be fair, you only need to fight if you care about maximum performance.
Acting like PC is only half of the way, the other half is actually Me being the 100% owner of what is happening on the device. No DRM, No locks, No attestation, No 'software only from vendor stores'. If there is even a single situation where device tells me 'Sorry Dave' then its not my device, Im not the owner.
They already got your details from your card details and decide its enough. Something like vpn, using niche browser, details on card not tally with registration details etc etc would throw off their threat mitigation system. Also different business operated differently, their payment gateway behave differently etc etc. Too many random factor to avoid xxx specific registrar because they ask for kyc when the kyc itself is a requirement.

That's okay, they will bloat the OS anyway and you'll be forced to pay for extra performance because it will be unbearably slow otherwise.

Can confirm, S22 ultra when plugged into Dell docking box (or whatever its called, not a typical docking station, it just connects with laptop via thick USB-C cable) works out of box, with mouse and keyboard.

Firefox with ublock origin works very well for example. The only thing is it doesn't adjust automatically to native screen resolution (1600p in my case). But its still just an Android, even with full filesystem access it feels vastly subpar to normal desktop PC if I need more than just browsing or other android apps.

You can Grug program in any language. Including Rust.

A) It's backed by Google (this is essential, there are many languages simpler/easier than it)

B) It's easy to pickup
Not Criminal but invalid DMCA takedowns do open you up to lawsuits. I'm curious if both sides (aka the registrar and Funko) are liable or only Funko.

That only applies to english though. In dutch the country is called Turkije and the bird is called a kalkoen. I'm sure in by far most languages there's no confusion between the bird and the country, and yet everyone across the whole world gets told to spell it Türkiye.
Any recommendations for people looking for a strictly European registrar?
Yeah sure, but how does that work e.g. for code? I wrote 75% of my MA thesis on my phone while waiting for the bus. But that is text that the keyboard was good at predicting — when you have to write a lot of cryptic symbols all of that falls apart pretty quickly.

The word "Mediocre" comes to mind. Still using Micro HDMI, weirdly added unusable nvme ensuring people know its not the final product and if they want nvme they'll be having to pay for a replacement at some point down the line, plus increasing the price by around 30%.

Nuclear War: A Scenario by Annie Jacobsen was my favorite. I lost some sleep. But we should be aware as citizens of states with nuclear weapons that their misuse is feasible, imminently practical, and would result in irreversible apocalypse.

I don't see this happening. People learn wordy prose in education: an assignment requires certain amount of words, but the student is either unwilling or unable to come up with information-packed content and resort to padding with fluff. Some become copywriters, some middle managers, some HR. Eliminating fluffery makes these positions, built around wrangling as much written word as possible, suddenly obsolete and consequently people, because writing well masked fluff is their main marketable skill. There's very strong feedback loop working against information dense written word.

This issue aside, thanks for doing what you do. I was kind of expecting Itch to get sold to some holdings or casino company at some point, as good things tend to go, but I've been happily surprised to see it mature independently throughout the years.
My personal opinion is:
If you use it as a daily driver (as opposed to some boredom-only entertainment device) you should get the best money can buy.

Web requirements scale up over time, elder devices (some years old as opposed to yesteryears device) are CPU and RAM constraint.

Once a device is not manufactured anymore, its batteries are neighter. You will only get stocked elder batteries.
