Oof yeah, some programs really love to touch a lot of stuff making strace kind of annoying to use. I usually end up chaining more grep -v
pipes on the end as I find files I’m not interested in seeing e.g.
strace okular | grep openat | grep -v breeze-dark | grep -v icon
Might help to first save it to a file so you don’t have to keep relaunching okular as you add more inverse greps
strace okular | tee some-file
^C
cat some-file | grep -v ...
I would probably try running
strace okular | grep openat
to see all the files it’s trying to read and see if any aren’t managed by your package manager and move those.
But the latest reply by felixernst in the kde discuss also looks helpful.
Ah yeah I don’t know how I would do that easily on a phone. Do those in my example above render for you? You should probably be able to just copy/paste them on a phone if they do.
I can’t find a keyboard with them, or a copy/pastable line where they’ve been typed
Maybe use combining diacritical marks?
I’m using 0x326 (Combining Comma Below), but you may need the CGJ in there to render correctly in all contexts
e.g.
Foo!̦ Bar?̦
Edit: Combining grapheme joiner, not zero width joiner
I hate that Google is exerting even more control on the internet with their TLD, but I don’t really think this attack is made all that much worse with .zip TLD. I can already bury a .com
in a long URL and end it in .zip just fine like so:
https://github.com∕foo∕bar∕[email protected]/foo/bar/baz.zip
Or even use a subdomain to remove the @:
https://github.com∕foo∕bar∕baz.example.com/foo/bar/baz.zip
The truth is most people don’t look much at URLs outside of a domain to verify its authenticity, at which point the .zip
TLD does not do much more harm than existing domains do.
For mitigation, Firefox already doesn’t display the username portion of the URL on hover of a link and URL-encodes it if copy-pasted into the url bar. It also displays the punycode representation when hovering or navigating to the second example.
Edit: looks like lemmy now replaces 0x2215
which is a character that looks like forward slash with an actual forward slash, so my comment is a bit more confusing. For clarity, the slashes before example.com
in the above urls were 0x2215
and not “/”.
While I agree that first party systems suck, as someone with neither an iOS or Android device I personally prefer something work rather than a screen that says “connect iOS/Android”.
I use a hard G when pronouncing gif, and the inventor using a hard G is a good enough reason for me. But the argument that the G stands for graphics being the reason for it is a garbage argument. There are plenty of acronyms that are pronounced differently than the letters that make up those acronyms. For example the U in SCUBA is pronounced as a long U as in rule or June, but stands for underwater, which is pronounced as a short U.
If I super heat a metal and it turns visibly red what is happening? Was it already emitting infrared and as it gets hotter the frequency shifts up? Or is it still emitting infrared but has a wider band of frequencies it is emitting as well (i.e. is it emitting frequencies below infrared as well as visible red)?
Yeah I’ve played with git-issue and agree it’s not ideal. Have you checked out Sourcehut? It is entirely email based but with some pretty great tooling around it to make it more accessible.
I agree that in a perfect world we have a separate open protocol for all of the non-repository related workflows/data, that has all the features we need. But the nice thing about email is it’s decentralized, and everyone already has it. And in my opinion, with the right tooling built around it, it can get pretty close to the same quality of life as a github PR, but also degrade gracefully without it.
I just tried subscribing to [email protected], but it’s empty despite the peer tube channel having many videos. Any idea what’s going on?
The problem isn’t the version control itself. Obviously git continues to function and I can commit things offline in a plane. What I can’t do is create/review PRs or read/open issues. That’s easy to brush off, but the most egregious thing is the fact that this used to be federated over email!
All we needed was more user-friendly tooling to make it easier for new college grads to start contributing to FLOSS, but instead of better email based tooling we got the centralized trash that github is today.
There’s no way of knowing, which is the whole problem with their model and why a lot of us self host things in the first place. Even if they super duper promise not to use the data, they could be lying. And if they are actually true to their word today, that could change tomorrow.
The way I remember the order is that the parentheses around the link would make grammatical sense outside of markdown (the goal of markdown is to still be fully readable even when looking at the raw source).
For example if I were posting on a forum that didn’t have markdown support which one of these would make more sense:
You can find that on this lemmy instance (https://lemmy.world).
You can find that on (this lemmy instance) https://lemmy.world.
Option 2 makes no sense grammatically. Then you just need to use the square brackets (which rarely show up in non-markdown text) to denote the link range.
Alternatively, if you still have a hard time remembering the order, you can use reference-style links which make it even more readable outside of markdown rendered contexts (note that there are no parentheses in this version, nothing to get confused):
[Here is a link][1] and [here is another link][2].
[1]: http://example.org
[2]: http://example.com
Invidious is just a frontend to Youtube like Teddit was a frontend for Reddit. It’s not federated, and Google can and will do everything in their power to make it suck. Just like how Reddit will now destroy Teddit next month.
Peertube is the federated option for video hosting/sharing. But of course, like everything else currently controlled by the centralized mega-corporations, there is a huge network effect hurdle that users need to overcome to get their content off of the user-hostile megacorporations (Youtube) and onto the federated alternatives (Peertube).
I see invidious/teddit/nitter/quetre/rimgo/scribe/libremdb as stop gap band-aids to temporarily give power back to the users, but in the end the owners of the content have full control over stopping these.
This is why it is so important that we promote federated networks like lemmy, mastadon, matrix, peertube, etc… Otherwise the entire internet will be a user-hostile cesspool.
Personally I think Spotify is worth $10 a month.
While I agree that there aren’t any great self-hosted solutions, more diversity in the music space is important. I refuse to use Spotify, and for me it’s not about price. In fact, if they charged more and actually paid their artists more I would probably hate it less. But overall I mostly refuse to use it for other reasons:
It couples the company that delivers your music with the app you must use to stream your music. In my opinion these should be separate - perhaps an open protocol that streaming companies can all use and open source clients that can connect to one or many of them?
Spotify made it clear that they don’t care about Linux users when they killed their Linux client. Yes I know about librespot, it’s only a trivial decision away from Spotify killing it. And unlike Reddit’s API changes, the backlash would be minimal since most people use the official one.
It strongly relies on network effects to get everyone on the platform and keep them there. As mentioned above, this hurts independent artists because they are forced to publish their music on a platform that doesn’t pay well just because everyone is on that platform. But there are more than just network effects between artists and consumers: Spotify relies on social-network style antipatterns to keep users in their ecosystem. I’ve been told by my friends that I am “difficult” because I don’t use Spotify and they want to share something with me. That is Spotify’s manipulation
Their official client is electron, I don’t want to have to run a whole browser stack to listen to music. Not to mention the fact that npm is plagued with supply chain problems and unless the Spotify devs manually audit every dependency of every dependency of every dependency any time they add or update one (doubt it), users are one attack away from being compromised.
When I did briefly use Spotify many years ago I took the time to build up some playlists of music and randomly songs would disappear from the playlists when Spotify lost rights to stream it.
I personally use Bandcamp for recommendations/discovery, and then purchase music I like to listen to and self-host it with MPD. It works great.
I’m not saying this is for everyone, obviously streaming has its merits. But in my experience most people self host not because something costs money, but because they have zero control of the actual experience, and they want to avoid the vendor lock-in issue.
It is likely not worth your effort as whatever you come up with will likely result in discord deactivating your account for breaking their ToS, or them breaking their API forcing you to constantly play catch-up.
This is why open communication protocols are so important. Email is still as ubiquitous as it is because it’s a protocol, not an API.
I personally think it would be less overall effort to get your friends to switch to an open protocol like matrix, or XMPP than it would playing cat and mouse with proprietary APIs. But you do you, I wish you the best of luck!
