Details on a new open source fund! From 10-100k per supported project. Maybe a lucky dev here could get some funding.

Chrome is disabling uBlock Origin because manifest v2 extensions are getting purged. You have a couple options, switch to uBlock Origin Lite, or the better option, is take the time to finally update to Brave!

Stack Wallet is my favorite mobile wallet. I can point it at my own Fulcrum server, it supports Tor, and even supports CashFusion, making it the most private mobile wallet for BCH.
Plus it is multi currency, supporting Monero, Ethereum, and a bunch of other coins.
Oh, and did I mention it is available for every platform, both mobile and desktop. It is a game changer.

Linux compatible kernel completely written in Rust.
Worth watching for sure. I wonder what Linus has to say about this.

Furi Labs releases a new Linux phone to the market. Runs Furi OS, based on Debian, with an Android compatibility layer. Thoughts? Anyone actually used it yet?

Be careful using process.stdout.write on a pipe in Node.js, you might end up losing data.

Extensive write-up on Uber's MySQL 5.7 to 8.0 upgrade. They updated 16,000+ nodes, and it took over a year.

Anyone here run their own mail server? Seems almost impossible to self host email these days.
If anyone has a working, easy solution I would love to hear it. I really would love to setup my own email server.
All I see are horror stories.

Don't believe the hype, they didn't actual hack any military encryption... bogus headline, but interesting nonetheless.
"The study emphasizes that while a quantum computer has not yet revealed the specific passcodes used in the algorithms tested, it is closer to doing so than previously achieved."

Full review of OpenBSD 7.6. I have to say it is spot on. If you like a minimal OS then it is stable and works great. However if you need more than the base, then you will probably hit a lot of issues.

Reminder there is no such thing as plain text. There are always other details like text encoding that must be handled.

FLUX is the best image generator out there, open source, and fast. If you haven't tried it yet you should. Replicate is an awesome platform, been using it for a while for Visionati. So many awesome models to choose from!

Just got to Argentina yesterday and the food has been delicious. However, it did take me a while to find good coffee which was surprising. Here are a few delectables.
A reminder for secure DNS (DNSSEC/DoH/DoT) users to include at least one IP address for NTP queries. Critical if you don't want to see the occasional deadlock.
You can get NTP IPs from NIST: https://tf.nist.gov/tf-cgi/servers.cgi
Here's an old blog about this issue, still relevant today.

Plus an issue filed against systemd-timesyncd which never got resolved.

Lots of fun with the original cast. Worth seeing and has the old school appeal of the first movie. I was particularly fond of the soul train!

As a Go dev this was extremely useful. Having come from Ruby I was spoiled by amazing iterators (Enumerable). Nice to have a similar flow for Go.
