To see the full picture, you must first step outside the frame.

@yurnidiot I'm usually a swipe-typer in Android (dictation when driving) but I've been daily-driving a Linux phone and it currently only has tap-typing available.

After @jacqueline told me it was possible, I tried 3d fdm printing a keycap for my mnt reform trackball. Went surprisingly well!

Getting it to fit was a bit fiddly and not the sort of process I enjoy, but it sure beats not having just the exposed switch...

My need for a job is beginning to supercede my convictions to professionally support personal ideologies.

@mntmn @martijnbraam >= 4x SATA or m.2 with hardware RAID, >= 2x 1GbE or better, network interface link aggregation, and support for OpenMediaVault would be ideal for my use case.

Running a #homeserver with a now #postmarketos, former #android phone. It's kinda cool to "upcycle" what would otherwise be an outdated, useless device.

FYI: "[...] the new text app will have an element of as well. “Soon, our app will be compatible with certain other apps like [...] Users on these other apps will be able to search for, follow and interact with your profile and content if you’re public, or if you’re private and approve them as followers.” (Presumably that compatibility will come through , which has been exploring alongside other tech companies.)"

A vulnerability (CVE-2023-32784) in the open-source password manager KeePass can be exploited to retrieve the master password from the software’s memory.

The bad news is that the vulnerability is still unfixed and that a PoC exploitation tool – aptly named KeePass 2.X Master Password Dumper – is publicly available, but the good news is that the password can't be extracted remotely just by exploiting this flaw.

@gamingonlinux It's a devious tactic leading up to jump scares. 😄

@ernie I'm a little surprised that this author didn't leverage the opportunity to advocate for the importance and relevancy of the Internet Archive.

god the reform is cool. i wanted to try out a trackball, so i just built one of the modules and it wasn’t even hard

@jacqueline Definitely! The feel is important, esp given how much it's used. If rotational inertia of a sphere is I=(2/5)mr^2, an epoxy resin billiard ball would have the same feel as another sphere with the same diameter and weight as long as it has uniform density, right?

@jacqueline I did!! That could be a solid choice. What number/color would you go for? Personally, I think it would look stunning to get a 25mm galaxy marble that would pop with the (red, I think? I don't have a Reform in front of me right now to confirm) backlight from the optical sensor.

@jacqueline Doo eet! I'm curious what aesthetic you'd choose for the ball itself

@gardiner_bryant @notnomiSylimE
Nice! is still my favorite party game, despite how its popularity has waned over the years. I was hoping that the would've succeeded to fund a PC variant of the game, but maybe the interest will emerge again one day.

I came across a neat browser extension today. It looks for "rel=me" links pointing to mastodon profiles, and puts it in a little list for you to review.

In other words, you visit a website, and if tells you if there are any mastodon accounts associated to the website.
