Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•My office has automatic faucets in the bathroom and I've started sticking my hands under the faucet at home and wondering for a second where the water is.
9·2 years agoSomeone I know recently switched from automatic bathroom lights to manual ones. Remembering to turn them on isn’t an issue, but months later everyone still forgets to turn them off.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•What hostname do you use for server? home.box or home.local?
10·2 years agoAnd
.boxhas been registered as a generic TLD now, so you could run into external .box domains.

Fediverse@lemmy.world•Dutch government starts own Mastodon instance as reaction to the instability of Twitter
25·2 years agoThey’re not going to have open signups. It’s government agencies only. Not that there’s technically anything stopping Germans from joining the PR departments of our government agencies…

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•So I tried signing up for Twitter to do a little trolling there...
131·2 years agoSo what you’re saying is that Twitter successfully kept out a bad actor.
It’s a shame that most of the users they have left are also in that category, but hey, they seem to be working on it.

Firefox@fedia.io•delete all site setting and cookies exceptions on firefox mobile
1·2 years agoAs far as I know you can’t set exceptions on mobile Firefox yet. It’s rather annoying.

World News@lemmy.world•France passes bill to allow police remotely activate phone camera, microphone, spy on people
26·2 years agoThese are all fine in the US, but in other countries not carrying proof of identity can get you into some trouble, as can refusing to talk to the police. Know your local laws.

Linux@kbin.social•Open source developers - have the recent moves by RedHat changed your opinion of using non-GPL licenses?
1·2 years agoFor Fedora users it changes nothing at all. Fedora is upstream from Enterprise Linux. There’s no practical reason you’d want to switch to a different distribution, just maybe a personal one if you strongly dislike what Red Hat is doing to the RHEL clones.

Linux@kbin.social•The Current Challenges With Using Linux On Airplanes
1·2 years agoA FreeRTOS derivative has gone through the effort of getting certified for safety critical applications, but that derivative is sadly proprietary. Even if FreeRTOS itself can’t meet that bar, though, the work wouldn’t have to start from scratch.



Does the certificate have a basic constraints extension with
CA:TRUEset? Firefox doesn’t allow that for certificates used as ‘end entity’ certificates. You’ll want to re-generate the certificate without the extension.
