Chromium now requires you to type a string inside the console before it lets you paste anything.

All of these functionalities can be provided by a simple WebSocket + REST server. The car connects to the WebSocket, and you can access these functionalities from your phone either with WebSockets or regular HTTP requests.

Cheapest servers with backend written in JS can easily handle thousands of WebSocket connections, and written in Go tens of thousands WebSocket connections. They would not ever need like over 100 of these servers GLOBALLY, which would cost them around $3000 monthly.

That’s the price of 60 subscriptions, which is freaking ridiculous.

You realize that maintaining a server that would allow that costs pennies?

You wouldn’t pay $150 for a lollipop, but somehow people think this is ok.

This problem exists exactly because of people like you, thinking it’s OK to pay for the features you already paid for.

It’s like you said projectors would replace TVs. But projectors are closer to TV than VR is to a monitor, they are more mature and much closer in price to TVs, yet most people own TV, and projectors are not common.

VR is a niche and always will be. It’s not more universal nor more practical than screen, and nothing will change that.

And as always, DRMs fuck only legitimate customers, and pirates can watch anywhere at full quality.

That’s one of the reasons I don’t feel bad about pirating any more. Not even the cost, but the fact that if you pay you’re going to have a worse experience.

Learn it first.

I almost exclusively use it with my own Dockerfiles, which gives me the same flexibility I would have by just using VM, with all the benefits of being containerized and reproducible. The exceptions are images of utility stuff, like databases, reverse proxy (I use caddy btw) etc.

Without docker, hosting everything was a mess. After a month I would forget about important things I did, and if I had to do that again, I would need to basically relearn what I found out then.

If you write a Dockerfile, every configuration you did is either reflected by the bash command or adding files from the project directory to the image. You can just look at the Dockerfile and see all the configurations made to base Debian image.

Additionally with docker-compose you can use multiple containers per project with proper networking and DNS resolution between containers by their service names. Quite useful if your project sets up a few different services that communicate with each other.

Thanks to that it’s trivial to host multiple projects using for example different PHP versions for each of them.

And I haven’t even mentioned yet the best thing about docker - if you’re a developer, you can be sure that the app will run exactly the same on your machine and on the server. You can have development versions of images that extend the production image by using Dockerfile stages. You can develop a dev version with full debug/tooling support and then use a clean prod image on the server.

I think ARM is their end goal, it’s really the only option for a handheld console, as today ARM is the only way you’ll get enough performance/power rate to make it both good on battery with good enough performance.

Win-win for everyone if they invest in an open source x86 to ARM project, similar like they did with Wine.

Ok, if I remember correctly, YouTube barely generates, but generates nonetheless revenue for Google. There are many ways to make more money without fucking over its users by cutting costs:

• downgrade old videos with small watch count to 720p30

• make people pay for hosting >1080p60 content

• do not allow private/unlisted videos

• straight up remove 10h looped videos - they take so much space, but are technically spam - both for bandwidth and storage

And my go-to solution: focus on sponsorships as main source of revenue. They are the only ads I can tolerate and are actually effective from my experience. YouTube can just take a cut from every sponsorship on YouTube video and everyone will be happy.

No, any documentation >>> GUI. GUI relies on your previous experience with similar environments. Just jump into a GUI of Visual Studio (not code) project configuration and see for yourself.

Is SMTP out of question?

Yup, if you have SSH service open on port 22, you’re automatically spammed by bots trying to brute force their way onto the system.

AFAIK it’s now 100, so basically unlimited for personal use.

Heck, I would just ask him about his take on the world, humanity, philosophy. His art and engineering has been studied already, and in 1 hour you would barely scratch the surface of the iceberg, but just how he viewed world, considering he was ahead of his times would be really interesting.

Software engineering nowadays is really complex. There is no way you’re going to know what’s going on, nobody is.

It’s just the more experience you have, the easier it is to figure out what’s going on. If you want to learn coding, just start coding.

I will start from something no one mentioned - start with Linux. Windows has its own very “special” ways of compiling stuff, while Linux is very simple. If you start on Windows, you’ll probably use IDE which will set up everything for you (cause setting up thing in Windows is messed up), and it will still be a black magic for you how the code transforms into binary.

Many people recommend python, but I would start with C (not C++, C++ sucks). It will give you the understanding of basic concepts like memory management.

Then start using something like javascript, which will get you wide range of libraries, which you can use to build anything.

Then at the end learn how infrastructure works, how are services communicating with each other, how to put your server to the public, learn Docker, set up reverse proxy, run stuff in cloud.

You can just as easily have keylogger running in backround as clipboard sniffer.

Browsers don’t have permission to read clipboard, just change them (unless you specifically give them permission to read it).

As you can see no benefits not using PM. It’s in fact safer, because if databade with non-hashed passwords leaks, your password doesn’t because it’s different for every service.

Markdown has code blocks with syntax highlighting.

If you expect results in given time and you’re not getting it, you’re gonna have talk with employee, WFH or office, doesn’t matter.

The “productivity” is an illusion and always has been.

I don’t even hate Apple that much, but what I hate is that every time I find out somebody I know uses Apple product I say to myself in quiet “Oh gosh…”, because very often the reason they use Apple whatever is to feel better than somebody.

And I hate people like these. Not every Apple enjoyer is like that, and there are legitimate reasons to go Apple, like wanting that ecosystem, good camera, using something that just works or go with Apple Silicon revolution. And no, Apple is not really private.

But in most cases their reasons are either a fucking IM bubbles (because I don’t want to spend 5 seconds to install an app that works anywhere) or it just “doesn’t lag” (which any phone over $200 doesn’t) which is obviously a fucking bullshit to cover the actual answer which is “I wanted to feel better by having shit that every fancy person uses”.

But the funniest people are the ones trying to explain these “amazing features” to me, totally ignoring the points that IM sucks on Android because Apple pushes their own standard and refuses to use open ones, that no sideloading and Apple controlling whole app ecosystem is the best thing ever and that Android is slow, because it [put any argument Apple fanboy without the basic OS concepts understanding would make] and not because you used $100 phone and switched to a motherfucking $600 phone. Wow, who would’ve thought?
