From what ive heard, these risc v chips have a long way to go for performance. Is that still true?

Many common Publisher scenarios—including creating professionally branded templates, printing envelopes and labels, and producing customized calendars, business cards, and programs—are already available in other Microsoft 365 apps such as Word and PowerPoint.

I use syncthing and poweramp.

I enjoyed it.

Sad they didn’t use dial up sounds for the protocol.

I have a couple of kuru toga pencils, but found them to feel a little spongy. There needs to be a little give to allow the ratchet to turn, but sadly I couldn’t get on with the feel.

Faber castell tk fine. You were right.

Cheers.

Yeah, I know YoL, but a bit pricey.

My fav is still pentel p205 for some reason.

What’s the mechanical pencil in the thumbnail?

I love a good pencil.

I have a friend who collects PDAs and he has lots of different psion machines.

I’ll never forget when he brought a 5 MX in to college and showed me it running window windowmaker in our physics class. I was blown away.

I use OpenSMTPD for mail delivery, dovecot for IMAP, fdm for filtering and some tool I forget the name of for DKIM signing.

To bulk move mail around, just move the maildirs.

It depends how shiny you want to keep it.

I do mine every 3 days, but it’s quality podcast time.

Razor blades cost pennies. So cheap.

So true. Haired people don’t realise that their haircut is a helmet.

I tried it once. NFSv4 isn’t simple like NFSv3 is. Fewer systems support it too.

NFS is fine if you can lock it down at the network level, but otherwise it’s Not For Security.

Yes, I have a Linux vm for docker. I’ve chucked up a pairdrop container. So easy.

Sounds like WebRTC crypto is mandatory.

pairdrop

I like this a lot.

A question. Docs say:

Your files are sent using WebRTC, encrypting them in transit. Still you have to trust the PairDrop server. To ensure the connection is secure and there is no MITM there is a plan to make PairDrop zero trust by encrypting the signaling and implementing a verification process. See issue #180 to keep updated.

Does this mean if you self-host on your LAN for personal use without https, then nothing is encrypted, or does WebRTC negotiate its own crypto?

This is super-cool, just a shame it’s unmaintained.

Hah. Nice hack!

Also, I love red dwarf.
