BodaciousMunchkin@links.hackliberty.orgOPto Technology@lemmy.world•Novelist Sean Michaels envisions what life will look like 125 years from nowEnglish3·7 months agoCould you help me remember the theme of that episode? I’ve only watched Black Mirror once.
BodaciousMunchkin@links.hackliberty.orgOPto Technology@lemmy.world•How Americans View Data PrivacyEnglish5·8 months agoYeah, especially everything now is in the hands of so few players, we don’t have much of a choice!
BodaciousMunchkin@links.hackliberty.orgOPto Privacy Guides@lemmy.one•How Americans View Data PrivacyEnglish8·8 months agoThis is all rather meaningless because we don’t know the demographics of those who answered: 5,101 US adults of what generations?
18 or older selected at random from across the entire country, read this for more information about how they selected those adults.
BodaciousMunchkin@links.hackliberty.orgOPto Privacy Guides@lemmy.one•CreepJS - Creepy device and browser fingerprintingEnglish9·9 months agoYeah, this is even creepier than coveryourtracks from EFF.
BodaciousMunchkin@links.hackliberty.orgOPto Privacy Guides@lemmy.one•CreepJS - Creepy device and browser fingerprintingEnglish7·9 months agoTry Mullvad Browser or Tor Browser.
BodaciousMunchkin@links.hackliberty.orgOPto Technology@lemmy.world•CreepJS - Creepy device and browser fingerprintingEnglish4·9 months agoAh, sorry about that. I will include the link in the post. The point is I want people to try this out to see what kind of information get leaked off your browsers but didn’t really think about the info of the tool.
BodaciousMunchkin@links.hackliberty.orgOPto commandline@programming.dev•How and why to use Lynx - the faster web browser9·9 months agoCompletely agree. But if you know, then you did use it at some point right?
Use
lynx
to browse a meme community is like closing your eyes while watching a movie, lol that’s my experience.

How much time do you suppose you save when working with it?1·10 months agoInstead of remembering what line number you were at, you can use marks (
:help mark-motions
) to immediately jump back to where you left off.For example, type
mx
to mark the current position withx
(or anything you want). Say now you are at the top of the file, just type'x
to go back to the line marked withx
.
BodaciousMunchkin@links.hackliberty.orgto Ask Experienced Devs@programming.dev•Users of Vim and similars, what exactly makes it useful compared to other text editors? How much time do you suppose you save when working with it?4·10 months agoA godsend for saving time - the
ab
(abbreviation) command. This command lets you shorten a long sequence of characters (be it a text or a complex command) into another sequence of any length. It works in both insert mode and command mode. If you frequently edit text using a lengthy command, this feature will significantly save you time. For example::ab ul s/\<./\u&/g
to capitalize every word in a line. When you enter command mode (type:
) and typeul
, vim will automatically expand it tos/\<./\u&/g
for you.Additionally, the
map
command can save even more time, but IMO theab
command offers more control for handling various cases. In my example, you can useul
to only capitalize the lines that have a specific pattern using the global commandg
.Another overlooked aspect is the
.exrc
file. Enabling it withset exrc
in your config allows for different setups based on different situations. For instance, when writing notes, I prefer to have line breaks on to make the text look nicer on the screen. In contrast, when writing code, I don’t require this option. I simply need to placeset linebreak
in the.exrc
file in the note-writing directory to adjust accordingly.

To take it a step further, you could enable the Do Not Disturb feature on your devices and only grant notification permissions to essential apps. This way, you can enjoy some peace of mind.
BodaciousMunchkin@links.hackliberty.orgto linux4noobs@programming.dev•Is there a way to automatically clean my home directory of app-specific directories?2·11 months agoI haven’t come across any information regarding the automatic aspect, and I don’t have any personal experience with
bubblejail
either. However,bubblejail
is mentioned on the arch wiki. It might be the closest match in this case, so you could give it a try.
BodaciousMunchkin@links.hackliberty.orgto linux4noobs@programming.dev•Is there a way to automatically clean my home directory of app-specific directories?2·11 months agoYou can use bubblewrap (its CLI name is
bwrap
) to make an arbitrary directory as$HOME
for a specific program session. Basically, you can bind or set any environment variable you need for that particular program. I recommend checking out the arch wiki on this topic.For example:
bwrap --dev-bind / / --bind $HOME/your/dir/path $HOME <your_program>
. This will let<your_program>
have access to/
and device permissions, with$HOME/your/dir/path
serving as its$HOME
.

I edited the title, thanks for mentioning that!

Edit: The new link of the post works but I think providing an archive link would be more sufficient.
BodaciousMunchkin@links.hackliberty.orgto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's something you want to tell us lemmy users ?63·11 months agoThis kind of self-fulfilling prophecy is what will drive down even more support for Linux. The thing we need to do right now is to let more people try out Linux so that corporations will see Linux as a potential target on the desktop and make products for Linux, not the opposite like what you are saying.
There’s an icon on the web interface, next to the star icon to save the post. It looks like a copy icon with two squares. I’m not sure how to do that on mobile, it may depend on the client you are using.
