  • Yes, though it works a bit differently.

    In your mastodon bio you link to your other precenses on the web (webpage, twitter, GitHub, whatever)

    On those profiles you add an (invisible) link to your mastodon profile. Mastodon can then verify that your mastodon profile and your other sites are controlled by the same entity, and get a blue tick.

  • Paywalled, so can't comment on the whole article.

    But the excerpt does not support the headline: Share of EU GDP says nothing about internal or external trade growing or shrinking, only that the relative amount of external to internal trade move to slightly more external

  • Recommend a Pdf viewer for Windows.

  • Do you need the pdf to open in Firefox/browser?

    If not, PDF-XChange Editor is a pretty good advanced standalone program. It comes in free and paid versions

    EDIT: Never mind, just noticed this is the FOSS community. PDF-XChange Editor is not FOSS

  • Good FOSS design software for beginners?

  • Dune3D is a relatively new 3D CAD for Linux. https://docs.dune3d.org/en/latest/ I haven't tried it, but it looks very promising.

    Personally, I use FreeCAD, which is leagues better than it used to be, and improving quickly

  • Not sure I buy the "not critical infrastructure" argument. Even if 95% of public (and private) correspondence is digital these days, paper-mail is still used as a fallback for some institutions and whenever a physical copy must be sent for whatever reason.

  • Wow this is awesome on so many levels!

    Could you just buy wood sticks of that size in the hardware store, or did you have cut them to width yourself? And how is the wood glue sticking to the plastic flare? (Never tried using wood glue on plastic before)

  • Yikes, are those required? Looks very rug-shaped, perfect for pulling things. Or not. Who knows?

  • Yeah it's a normal model, but BitWarden is a bit special in that their original server-side implementation was enough of a pain to self-host on a small scale that an alternative implementation Vautlwarden was created. And Vaultwarden became very popular in self-hosted circles. And now many years later BitWarden offers a Lite server which scales down. I think it's a good thing, just a bit unusual. I'm struggling to think of similar examples.

    I'm sure Vaultwarden still funnels plenty of enterprise use of BitWarden, since Vaultwarden users still use official BitWarden client.

  • Forward thinking venture capital funded companies are getting rarer, hence the question on motivation. Especially the last few years many VC Foss companies have squeezed harder the other way (gitea, Terraform, docker). So all kudos to BitWarden for launching Lite.

    What you say a about brand dominance, or brand protection makes a lot of sense. It's not a good look for them that a large number of people choose to use an unofficial implementation instead of theirs. And should there ever be a catastrophic security issue with Vaultwarden, it would still reflect bad on BitWarden as that kind of nuance (like "unofficial server side implementation") tend to get lost in reporting. Having more IT workers self-host official version probably also helps pave the way for bringing enterprise-bitwarden to companies.

    Valve are a bit of a unicorn though, because they are privately owned. There's no investors demanding ROI the next quarter, which gives them freedom to think long term.When Microsoft launched windows8 and the Microsoft Store, Valve took that as an existential threat to their whole business model (the Steam store). Valve feared that Microsoft was trying to position itself like Apple on iOS and Google on Android, where there is only one platform store, and all apps are purchased through the platform store, and the platform store takes that sweet sweet 30% cut. So Valve pivoted to ensure the Steam store would not be obsolete, and give customers a reason to still use the Steam store. And what they achieved is awesome, for Linux, for Valve and for gamers. But it took nearly a decade, which is a level of patience few companies have.

  • Filesystem suddenly becoming read-only?

    Jump

  • I had the same happen on the root folder on a SATA SSD. The SSD was dying (don't remember if there was SMART errors, but the dmesg log showed write-errors. I cloned old SSD to a new SSD and haven't seen the problem since. That was years ago.

    When there are multiple consecutive write errors, Linux will re-moumt the partition as read-only to protect the data. (There usually a statement along the lines of "on-error:remount-ro" for the partition in the /etc/fstab file)

  • Wonder what's the reasoning behind offering this Lite version. I don't imagine competing with Vaultwarden is very lucrative financially.

  • It's a bit of a sad state of Europes electric car manufacturering that the only two mentioned manufacturers are Volvo/Polestar, both wholly owned by Chinese Geely, with production in China.

    The ChargeUp organisation consists of charging infrastructure providers (including gas station companies like CircleK, BP, Total). The only manufacturer is (American) Tesla, presumably because of their charging infrastructure division. https://www.chargeupeurope.eu/membership

    EmobilityEurope organization is mostly driver-associations and supply chain companies. The actual manufacturers are:

    So not a single European (electric) car manufacturer is involved

  • I just did it not long a ago. Gittea -> Forgejo10 -> Forgejo11 LTS, in Docker. Surprisingly quick, painless and smooth.

    (My only issue was not Forgejo, but MySQL. Because the hardware is ancient and Docker compose pulled down a new version of mysql8 at the same time as pulling forgejo. New version of mysql8 didnt support my CPU architecture. Easy fix was to change the label mysql8oraclelinux7 in Docker compose and pull that image. There is a issue with solutions in the MySQL Docker GitHub repo)

    Anybody advocating for other public administrations to migrate can point loudly at Schleswig-Holstein that it's been done before and how to do it right. No more "that would never work" from the proprietary nay-sayers
