I don’t understand what macron was thinking. If they got this result 3 weeks ago, rushing new elections with no time for an extended electoral campaign was going to get the same results, no?

On the top right. Maybe it’s some a/b testing to see which one “converts” (=annoys) more. I don’t have the “just take me to the download” link like in the other image, just the X to close the login popup

Unacceptable IMHO, I just want to give my clients an easy link to download the huge files I’m sending them without ads or tricks. With this wall many users will get confused and create a new account

Both on mobile and desktop there’s a “login wall” but it can be dismissed by pressing on the X.

Still, it’s a dark pattern that I don’t like, tomorrow at work we will discuss alternatives as we subscribed (one single account shared between everyone) just for sending attachments with filelink using thunderbird - and with a “login wall” it no longer fits the purpose

Shared from a paid account or from a free account?

If shared from paid account, then tomorrow I’m going to cancel our company account as this is unacceptable, we use that for sharing files in emails (we tried to use a self hosted nextcloud but customers are too dumb to figure out how to press the download button)

Mondo TV makes copycat cartoons with bad storytelling, bad drawing and bad dubbing, to be sold in those €2 DVDs in the supermarket bargain bins

I have the feeling that half a million is the profit of a decade

Wasn’t already a big tariff on anything that’s not made in China to the point that is a status symbol to being able to afford a foreign car?

never heard about stcp nor i see something called like that in their github repository

Does it have authentication?

For safety i’d add an additional layer of authentication. Easy way: cloudflare access + cloudflare tunnel; hard mode: authelia + a reverse proxy

I don’t get this kind of people.

People are not robots. Workers after 8 hours are definitely less productive and more distracted. Since anyway you’re going to pay by the hour (right? You are going to pay the extra hours, right?) isn’t better to pay a different shift? Then your office has always fresh people with happier morale and not zombies that are just waiting to go home after 12 hours of slave work

If it’s a small website like the one you screenshotted, yes, I disable the adblocker for them.

If the website is unreadable without an adblocker like XDA, then fuck them, I’m going to block the adblocker-blocker

What were they thinking, it was almost identical to the burger king brand identity

I feel maybe that’s a dovecot issue? Or a spamassassin issue?

In my setup it seems “normal” that spam sent to aliases gets in the “catch all” instead of the mailbox of the user that has that alias. Very infuriating as I had to tune down the spam filter to block only the most obvious spam as false positives get “lost”

Although since 3-4 months ago I didn’t receive any misdirected spam in the catch-all mailbox, so it might be that’s now it has been fixed (I’m one of those guys that run updates automatically unattended because my hobby is fixing problems when there’s a breaking feature after update)

Where’s the selfhosting in something that is server-side proprietary code?

Yes but in this case it’s something that parses stuff received from internet, not a calculator or a sudoku app. There’s a tiny chance that a specially crafted email could be exploited. It’s very unlikely that it would be explicitly targeted as it’s a niche app that now gets less than a download a day, but still IMHO it’s dangerous.

On the fdroid community I once recommended to everyone a 100% offline app that generated generic images for contacts without pictures and because it was abandoned in 2018 I was downvoted by many who would say “what if an attacker with some top tier social engineering skill persuaded you to use a specially crafted exploited image as a contact picture on your phone, then when you used this app to parse existing picture, the 6 years old image library would be exploited and your phone hacked??” - something that has the same probability of “what if the same day you found on the ground a winning lottery ticket a meteorite hits the ground, bounces back all the stairs and hits you while waiting the subway pushing you on an incoming train?”

I wonder if finally would be possible to have decent SMB browsing speeds when there are thousands of directories on a non-apple SMB server, as the system file browser checks all the subdirectories for resource forks.

At work the guy that insisted for a Mac takes 3+ minutes to load the main share with 10k directory, while on windows/Linux is instant.

Agree. At least email can be easily filtered but phone…

Should be kept more secret than SSN

They already have to sell it at half price due to sanctions 😂

yes but with the immense amount on money that they literally blew in ukraine + all the money they’re losing with sanctions they could have done some geoengineering megaproject to transform a similarly sized amount of land already in their possession into grain farms

I’m also wondering this. Maybe they’re targeting gullible HR personnel with some social engineering if they reply. Or some phishing if someone clicks the “read the online version” link

spam because it has been sent to all the addresses of my company, software gore because badly programmed/misconfigured spambot

I Hope not, for the environment. Just three weeks before the invasion Europe declared that gas can be considered green energy because the Russian one was cheap and abundant. Putin the environmental conscious dictator immediately stepped in and reminded the EU that Russian gas is not cheap nor abundant.

Thanks to his big push now the EU is increased the share of renewable energy. Once built, we don’t need gas anymore. And hopefully developing countries will leapfrog

I don’t understand his goal, honestly. If he “wins” he gets a barren land acquired for huge human and monetary cost. Has to pay to rebuild everything and still sanctioned forever by the west, with limited trades. If he “loses” (example chokes, dies tonight and replaced by a decent human being) then they have to pay a lot in reparation costs and Russia would need decades to regain the trust status they had pre-war. It’s a lose-lose situation
