I've been using Zen Browser on macOS and Linux for a few months now. It's a great browser experience, and I hope it gains traction. One thing it currently lacks that I'd like to see is a tab group feature like Chrome.

Nope. Snowflake has been around for a while. I've been running my node for at least a year now

Like others, I have a folder in my home directory called "Code." Most operating systems encourage you to organize digital files by category (documents, photos, music, videos). Anything that doesn't fit into those categories gets its own new directory. This is especially important for me, as all my folders except Code are synced to NextCloud.

It's the logo of "0din", which is a Mozilla-backed bug bounty (say that five times fast) with a focus on GenAI

I thought it was going to be the Chinese lady who recorded, "the Bluetooth device is ready to pair" 😂

Anyone who found this interesting should check out Nick Harkawway's novel Gnomon. It's set in a near-future society with a similar kind of omnipresent and ambivalent AI/surveillance system, combined with some fantasy elements.

"The day God intervened" is crazy. I'm not religious, and clearly neither is Trump. Straight up blasphemy...

If I understand your question, you can just assign some of your server endpoints a public IP/URL and keep some others behind the firewall. My home lab exposes some services to the open internet, while others are only accessible with a VPN.

It's about time. I hop between iOS and Android every so often, and the lack of RCS has always been a major pain in the ass. Goodbye shitty compressed photos and hello read receipts. Unless your Android vendor doesn't fully support RCS... Looking at you, Samsung

Shared Data Partition for macOS/Linux Dual Boot (lemmy.sdf.org)

I am interested in dual-booting a Linux distro (probably Ubuntu) on my 2019 MacBook Pro. Ideally, I would have a shared data partition so that I could access my documents from both OSes. Does anyone have suggestions on the best way to accomplish this?

UPDATE: created macOS, Ubuntu, and data partitions. Was able to mount and access data partition from both systems without any issues. As a bonus, Ubuntu let me replace the standard documents, photos, videos, etc. folders with symlinks to the data partition.

Joe Bellarosa - Kiss Me (Visualizer) (vimeo.com)
 

My partner and I bought a low-end 3D scanner on Amazon to create this visualizer for a song I wrote!

The scanner aided in created a 3D mesh and texture map, which we brought into Blender and added fluid simulations via the FLIP plugin.

The song was recorded in Logic Pro, featuring my childhood Yamaha Portasound PSS-270. The video was comped in Final Cut Pro.

I'd love to know what you all think :)

Thoughts on BOOX Tab Ultra C? (shop.boox.com)
 

Does anyone here have a BOOX e-paper tablet? I'm a big fan of e-paper devices—I love my Pebble smartwatch, Kindle Paperwhite, and Light Phone II. I've been eyeing the Tab Ultra C for quite a while, and I am considering the pros and cons. Mostly, I intend to use it for browsing the web and maybe some light note taking and document writing.

Hi friends! Has anyone here had success using Yubikeys on Linux? I've been going back and forth with support to no avail, trying to get my Yubikey 5C NFC to play nicely on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. Any suggestions are appreciated.

I have the following Yubikey-related packages on my system:

UPDATE: After working my way down the entire software stack, I contacted the vendor of my USB-C port and requested a replacement. It did the trick...
