mesa@piefed.socialto Technology@lemmy.ml•Evidence of cell phone surveillance detected at anti-ICE protestEnglish6·2 days agoSuper easy. You can also do basic triangulation with some specialty hardware.
mesa@piefed.socialto Technology@lemmy.ml•Evidence of cell phone surveillance detected at anti-ICE protestEnglish7·2 days agoMeshtastic with 3 jumps would be stretching for actual communication. Plus Bluetooth is even worse for security. Direct connection might be a better way to use the device.
I’ve had meshtastic for about 2 ish years now and its still being worked on.
mesa@piefed.socialto Linux@lemmy.ml•Anyone else able to "sense" whether a solution on a forum will work before fully reading it through? Especially the long-winded ones.English18·3 days agoThe more experience you have, the more BS your able to smell. Sometimes I marvel at how succinct other people can be fixing an issue with amazing docs. Compared to my old “wizard spell” shenanigans that solve the issue, but only on a Tuesday, full moon, goats, etc…
Its hard to solve issues, even harder to keep the solution working after a certain amount of time.
mesa@piefed.socialOPto Videos@lemmy.world•Why don't Americans use electric kettles?English1·3 days agoI think certain regions of the US do have them and others do not at all.
For example, where I am at, I have only met one other person in real life that has one. But I do hear about a lot of my friends on the east coast having them. Dunno.
Nice!! Woo hoo!
mesa@piefed.socialto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Wafrn: a tumblr clone that federates with fedi and now also has opt in native blueskyEnglish1·4 days agoInteresting: Activityhub and bluesky integration out the door. Thats a first (I think?)
mesa@piefed.socialto Open Source@lemmy.ml•If Oracle goes bankrupt in the future, what would you like to see as the destination for some of its products?English2·4 days agoYep they inherited it from Sun. JavaScript the name.
mesa@piefed.socialto Technology@lemmy.world•When tech hardware becomes paperweightsEnglish24·4 days agoIt’s the only reason my 1500$ CPAP still works. Company discontinued it but I fixed it up so it still works. And it had a hard 5 year replacement rule, ie it’s designed to software block you from using the machine after 5 years and get a new one.
mesa@piefed.socialOPto Videos@lemmy.world•Why don't Americans use electric kettles?English7·5 days agoHe goes into it in another video on the channel. Almost everyone I know uses a microwave for water.
mesa@piefed.socialto Open Source@lemmy.ml•If Oracle goes bankrupt in the future, what would you like to see as the destination for some of its products?English12·6 days agoWe will finally own JavaScript. Which is hilarious.
mesa@piefed.socialto Fediverse@piefed.social•Piefed reaches 1500 monthly active usersEnglish1·10 days agoProbably because lots of things are blue.
Just FYI, piefed and the community has a LOT of awesome ui themes that you can use.
mesa@piefed.socialto Technology@lemmy.world•What Does a Post-Google Internet Look LikeEnglish4·10 days agoMeh there’s a ton of other services like opentofu, podman, vms, ect…
mesa@piefed.socialto Technology@lemmy.world•Supreme Court to decide whether ISPs must disconnect users accused of piracyEnglish60·11 days agoThis is how you get a new darknet.
mesa@piefed.socialto Games@lemmy.world•Day 349 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playingEnglish2·11 days agoIt has a port master version as well. It’s a really fun game. Very well done.
Is there a better spot for technical blogs? I figure that [email protected] is probably fine, but I am not sure where else to put technical posts like this one. I figure the votes will have it either way.
Technology sometimes feels closer to Technology news (which was how reddit acted like it was).
mesa@piefed.socialto Technology@lemmy.world•Gartner Predicts Over 40% of Agentic AI Projects Will Be Canceled by End of 2027English3·12 days agoSounds like a number pulled out the butt. It will be closer to all of them going by GitHub projects spun up on the timeline, never to be completed.
mesa@piefed.socialto Sysadmin@lemmy.world•How you automate tasks which have a gui app instead of CLI?English6·16 days agoPython can do it quite well. Look for certain pixels, click if they have a certain value.
As others have said it’s better to use other methods like apis where there is context but it’s definitely doable.
If it’s on the web, I’ve used selenium for years to get around apis and websites that don’t support it.
mesa@piefed.socialto Technology@lemmy.world•No JS, No CSS, No HTML: online "clubs" celebrate plainer websitesEnglish2·17 days agoblink and center dont work on most modern sites. iframes in particular break now. Give it another 10 years. Hell React will break if you dont keep up with the updates every 6ish months. Or so it feels.
We can have both. Sites that marvel and little txt sites.
Search is unusable because of shorts. Also I want the ability to turn them off.
