Seems to be a problem with sh.itjust.works, I think.

Jokes aside, this is very concerning. And sad. Humanity will never be able to pull on one string.

Yes, I'm using Vaultwarden as lightweight alternative to the Bitwarden server.

I'm saying I don't trust 1Password. The OP asked for 1Password vs. Bitwarden. To me, Vaultwarden = Bitwarden and 1Password = Closed source crap.

I'm also part of the Vaultwarden crowd. I'll never trust something that isn't open source.

I like both. But many people don't even realize that nano has quite a lot of configuration options. To me, they're text editors, not code editors. For code, I use VSCode (or "code", the FOSS variant).

*opens up customized nano*

Yes, I had my mom start with Linux and she's confused when she has to use Windows.

That's a pretty bad point you made there. Imagine having to google for each app on your smartphone and tell me how that's better.

What about the scammy search results that point to malware infected sites?

What about stability and security updates for the software you obtained that way? Every software will have it's own update mechanism, if there's one at all.

How is it not better to install or update all software on the computer with a single click or command?

That happened due to the emoji vulnerability. One mitigation step admins had to take is rotate JWT secrets, which essentially deauthenticated everyone's sessions.

Lemmy-UI and some 3rd party applications didn't know how to react to that, as this is not an official Lemmy feature (it required a database query), so they stayed in that limbo state you're describing here.

Just log out and back in. If the problem persists, delete the cookie for your instance and try again.

 

Hey, community.

This one might probably trigger some of you. But just a question that comes out of the blue: What are your thoughts on it?

I first learned programming back in the day with Visual Basic 2008. Nowadays, I can program with C#, Java, PHP and some other languages rather well (I'm no professional, though), but I often come back to Visual Basic, because I'm just so used to it. Even though it's not that often, because I'm a Linux user.

But let's say I need a small program for Windows real quick? VB.NET is gonna be my choice. Right now, I'm implementing a board game server + client for the game of go (also called baduk or wei'qi) and I'm making really good progress.

I personally think that people should just use what they want to use. I don't get the hate for PHP and some other languages and I think this gate-keeping and god complex some developers have is really annoying. Makes me want to use VB.NET even harder.

I also don't like to jump on board with every new and upcoming programming language or library, just to be cool.

I'd also like to emphasize that I'm not creating software for a living right now. I do have a small company for a little bit of freelance work, but that's just money on the side that comes in by creating really small projects.

 

Just some cutsies enjoying the weather.

 

RAWR!
