the reason i use this (and just a container with -v $HOME:$HOME before) is to get an environment with all the command line tools i'm familiar with from debian, instead of using something like homebrew. in general, i mostly trust these

the arabic writing is also crazy, so i have no idea what author was going for.

have you actually looked at the map? there a whole inset panel for israel, and not a single mention of palestine.

i used to slip mine in a manilla envelope whenever i needed to take it home from the office and i hadn't brought my backpack with me. our stationary cupboard was well stocked with these!

i'm the author. i keep a close eye on it for any security issues but i'm not adding any new features, hence the lack of commits. i also obviously maintain the instance on https://webwormhole.io/ .

i mainly use apple devices, but never put anything on icloud before adp came out.

yes of course - but in this case the "unexpected" prompt is presented to the attacker, not the user.

You should probably be building a web app (on PWA vs. Electron apps)(recursiverelay.net)

some years ago i played around with something similar: https://sa.lj.am/sun/ source is linked at the bottom. much of it was written in elm and i no longer understand how any of it works.

I developed it mainly on Firefox on macOS. I'd love to figure out why it didn't work for you. Do you get anything on about:webrtc while trying to connect?

The command line version shouldn't have any trouble with large files. There's https://github.com/saljam/webwormhole/issues/4 to fix the web version. :)

The website uses Google's. On command line it's an option and Google's is default. I'd like to make the signalling server also a STUN server at some point.

Pion is great. Thanks for making it! Definitely give a talk if you can. It's all remote currently!

This uses STUN servers to help it poke through NATs. (That's what I mean by "WebRTC's NAT traversal tricks") There's no TURN server set for this, but it shouldn't be hard to add one. There are NATs where you&#x

Codes are intentionally single use, to limit the bruteforce vector. And only two peers can connect any given time currently. It would be interesting to figure out how to make it work with more than 2 peers!

Making usable interfaces that work in a single directions is really hard. Making them work in both is much much harder. The bugs might be funny, but I have great respect for the programmers trying to make their applications more accessible,

The sheer scale of this is facilitated by technology. We should all be wary of what we build.

That's an appalling thing to say. Like the US's neverending war on terror, "extremism" here is a handy excuse to commit atrocities. It's no argument to justify this level and scale of human rights abuse.

The Upspin project uses these to make private key recovery easier. I love the idea. However, the choice of letters only seems unambiguous to western speakers. In Arabic, for example, P and B sound the same, and so do V and F for most native

I'll add to what others mentioned the fact the proper text selection for bidirectional text is awkward at best, and often outright impossible with buggy UIs. Particularly at the border of where the text changes direction.

it's not unusual for people to occasionally return to their country of origin to engage in politics. quite often the reason they're abroad is the security risk involved in being in opposition to the political status quo.

I find it surreal how this article is reporting about a business based in an Israeli settlement in the Palestinian West Bank as if that's completely normal and isn't part of a horrible colonial occupation by any international stan

Does this have notation for quarter tones? I can't find that on their website. That's always been a pain point for me. No quarter tone notation rules out a lot, including most of Arabic and Turkish, and much of Greek maqam music.
