I am excited about the changes to incus-migrate that allow for direct importation of a remote qcow2 or vmdk. Although many people distribute vmdk's zipped or in tarballs, but it's still a cool feature.

Sample with fibonacci:

Here are some cool examples I was looking at:

https://github.com/zardoy/minecraft-web-client — Minecraft in your browser, complete with connections to servers.

https://github.com/inolen/quakejs — quake 3 in your browser, has multiplayer as well.

Any other good examples? or good lists?

I noticed in a fairly recent version of KDE, my computer would pretend to be a bluetooth sink when connected to devices like my phone.

This is a really cool feature, and I really like it, because it lets me stream audio from my phone to my computer with no fuss.

However, there is an annoying glitch where the stream stops all of a sudden. The phone keeps playing the music, but I can't hear anything. I've noticed that this seems to have something to do with CPU usage, like when I switch windows rapidly or do something that requires CPU the bluetooth process is dropped. The only reliable way to fix it is to disconnect and reconnect, or wait a minute, and then it works again. Is there any way to fix this more persistently?

I am using CachyOS + KDE right now.

0patch provides "micropatches", that replace running windows code in place, fixing security issues rapidly without requiring an update/reboot.

I really want something like them for an upcoming cybersecurity competition, specifcally patches for the zerologin and eternalblue vulnerabilities.

Unfortunately, 0patch does want a credit card for the free trial, which makes it unfeasible for us to use.

Any alternatives?

Has anyone tried this? It's discord reverse engineered.

Inspired by this comment.

I'm curious.

Tldr we want a static website that will last a long time and also look pretty nice.

Right now, we have a wordpress website. It looks very nice. It also have 4 extensions that aren't configured to auto update. Also whenever I try to make changes to the website they don't apply because the website was configured via the extensions and I hate it.

I want a static site of some kind. It's simple to self host or host anywhere, and it's also simple to secure and keep maintained for a long time.

I am currently looking at static site generators, like quarto, or docusaurus

However, they are difficult to theme to the "niceness" that I want, and their nature results in these somewhat fixed output formats. Like, it is somewhat difficult and annoying to put images anywhere I want them and etc.

Is there like a fixed WYSIWYG html editor? Something between designing a website from scratch and a static site generator. Or is there a way to finagle static site generators to be more flexible than blogs or documentation sites?

I hate all three. I understand some of the decisions but other ones are frustrating.

Let me explain what I used to do. What I used to do, is take advantage of the fact that firefox profiles are completely separate instances of firefox, each with their own settings and extensions. I would run my personal profile with highly aggressive and experimental settings, because I was ok with it crashing if it meant I learned interesting things. On the other hand, the profiles related to schoolwork and other more important tasks would be defaults, so they would be much more stable. I no longer consider this a necessary feature, but it was fun to play with.

The other big reason why I relied on the old profiles, is because they have separate cookies and whatnot, which is useful for when I want to have an account for each profile. Although Google happily lets you sign into multiple accounts from the same browser, Microsoft, Discord, and many other apps do not, and force you to sign out before signing in again.

But this is painful. Things never open in the profile I want them to by default, which is annoying. In theory, and I am considering doing this, the way to fix it is by creating app menu shortcuts for each profile, and then having them be the apps I select whenever I want to open a website link or file (with no default profile/app set, so I just select every time).

In addition to that, each profile had to have it's own mozilla account for syncing, which was annoying.

Containers seemed like a nice in between. I could use a single mozilla account for sync, but have seperate microsoft or other accounts on the same browser instance.

Except nope, they actually suck and don't work like that. I can't decide a window is dedicated to a container, so all tabs from xyz site will open in that container and give me that account. It constantly prompts me and it's painful and the UX for what I'm trying to do is miserable.

Containers seem designed more for isolating cookies between two different sites, rather than hiding instances of sites from themselves. Like the original version was a "facebook container", which would hide the facebook cookies from other sites, but I don't want that. I want to be able to log into multiple facebook accounts (hypothetically, I don't actually have a single facebook account but you get the idea).

The new profiles, if you've heard of them, somehow manage to combine the worst of both worlds. Firstly they are an entirely separate system and can't be managed by the second profile system. But they exist within a single one of the old profiles, meaning I can't do tricks with desktop shortcuts to make apps open in one profile or the other. But at the same time, despite existing within one profile, they each require seperate Mozilla accounts for sync.

I am very frustrated, but als resetting up my system so I am considering what to do. I am probably going to continue with profiles, but add app menu shortcuts for them.

Any better ideas?
