i had drifted away from sabrina over the years but she just cut me off and slid back into my lane

i am the only person you know who’s seen her live. any ‘you’ 😛

aye, sailors, i see. are the bonus tracks purchasable loose, or do they try to make you buy the whole album?

wth ‘taylor’s version’? like there was an o.g. eras tour that made money for scooter?

OSM has a lot more data inside than the website shows - in dense shopping areas you can’t zoom in far enough to see all the POIs, much less business names.

I’ve read before that using cached previews was done to stay accessible to less-powerful mobile devices, which would have smaller CPUs that would be taxed by rendering the native vector data. I view it as a branding disadvantage that OSM appears, from desktops, to have less info than alternatives. But that’s a battle that’s been had many times before, one might as well argue over paper vs plastic.

NO. HOW MANY OF HER ARE THERE TO BE DOING ALL THIS?!

The main URL points to this:

it’s perhaps interesting to see what existing apps ZipoApps has on the Android Play Store.

is 2fa reliable now? in the early days of lemmy one could end up in lockouts when trying to set it up

no idea. impossible to rule out. there’s no good answer to ‘why’ that i’ve seen

Prerequisites

• Internet-facing web server with reverse proxy and domain name (preferably SSL of course)
• Server behind the reverse proxy with Rust environment

Installation

• Don’t bother downloading the source code to your server; installing it that way gives you a big debug executable
• Instead just cargo install mollysocket
• Move the mollysocket executable if desired
• Run mollysocket once so that it will emit the default config

Configuration

• Fish the config file out of .config/mollysocket/default-config.toml and copy it somewhere.

config.toml

• In the new file, replace the allowed_endpoints line with allowed_endpoints = ['*']. The default 0.0.0.0 config appears to be a bug; this setting controls access to endpoints within the app, not IPs from outside. Leaving the original value causes mollysocket to reject everything.
• Put a proper path in the db = './mollysocket.db' line rather than just having it land wherever you’re sitting.
• Delete the mollysocket.db that was created on first run (even if it’s already where you’re intending to put it). This is just to make sure the web server creates it and has the correct permissions.

Run script

• The environment variable ROCKET_PORT must be set or the server will sit and do nothing. It’s best to create all of the environment variables mentioned in the README, whether that is in a user profile script or in a shell script that wraps startup. You can change any of these values, but they must exist.

• export ROCKET_PORT=8020
  export RUST_LOG=info
  export MOLLY_CONF=/path/to/your/config.toml
  

Proxy server

• You’ll need to proxy everything from / to your mollysocket server and ROCKET_PORT.
• Exclude anything that you may need served from your web server, such as .well-known.

Things to know

• I get this warning on startup: “Forced shutdown is disabled. Runtime settings may be suboptimal.”
• I also can’t stop my server with any sane signal; only SIGKILL brings it down.

you probably already found this, but for others who might be curious:

in the settings if you change notification method from websocket to unified push, the UP settings come up, including a server address (which is what they intend to be used) or some air gap mode that i can’t find documented

if your threat model were ‘encrypt everything at rest’, invitations to people outside your own service would be tricky as they have to be machine-readable text in a specific format. i’m sure it’s possible but you’d have to be specific in looking for that as a feature.

my needs are more modest - don’t store email in GAFAM or particular regimes - and i use runbox, which is bog-standard except for being stored somewhere else, being paid, and having slightly more homely webapps. using ‘evolution’ on linux, a bog-standard email program that’s also a bit more homely than alternatives, invitations go out to whomever i choose and look normal. i make recurring events for myself all the time and remove individual occurrences. i’ve added on ical subscriptions for things like country holidays, which are the first thing you’ll notice missing when you leave outlook.

the mail’s just imap and the calendar’s just caldav. when you get into providers that don’t provide imap or caldav for (valid) security reasons, that’s when you’re more likely to get integration issues with regular people.

i’m shopping for mp3 players for precisely this reason - a friend has an ipod touch that abruptly stopped scrobbling. the last.fm app is stuck in a loop sucking battery. and she needs bluetooth anyway. she has always kept music and phone separate but now we have to ask the five whys on that before getting her a new unfamiliar gadget.

i am confused. the online store says ‘1 of 4 versions’ in the description of the vinyl, but only shows blue. target show only tangerine and it’s a lot more expensive. what are the four editions that the online store alludes to - other colors that are sold out? why is target $8 more?

part of humans learning to drive safely is knowing that flouting traffic laws increases your chance of being stopped, fined, or if you’re not the right demographic, worse things. we calibrate our behavior to maximize speed and minimize cops, and to avoid being at-fault in an accident, which is a major hit to insurance rates.

autonomous vehicles can’t be cited for moving violations. they’re learning to maximize speed without the governor of traffic laws. in the absence of speed and citation data, it’s hard to measure how safe they are. there is no systemic incentive for them to care about safety, except for bad press.

again not foss so won’t dwell at length — but i use fund manager from beiley software. commercial, but works double-entry and handles more investment complexity than a human could ever need. windows app, i run it under wine on linux and crossover on mac. (i don’t own a windows box — that’s how irreplaceable it was for me.)

so per wikipedia and confirmed at MDN, firefox is the only major browser line not to consider certificate transparency at all. and yet it’s the only one that has given me occasional maddening SSL errors that have blocked site access (not always little sites, it’s happened with amazon).

i don’t understand how firefox can be simultaneously the least picky about certificates and the most likely to spuriously decide they’re invalid.
