What is your favourite open source software that you discovered in the past year, that you can no longer live without?
  • Do note, because it's using email, the recipient and sender are not private, along with the time, and probably the relative size of the messages.

    The specific content of each message should be private as long as the encryption is done well. I haven't looked at it so I don't know if it implemnts safeguards to verify who you're messaging with (besides using the email address) and I don't know if it uses PFS (Perfect Forward Secrecy) to protect against a key getting compromised.

  • Pomodoro Technique
  • Maybe surprisingly, it is actually a technique to limit interruptions, specifically because you are only working on your current task for 25 minutes. It makes it much easier to not switch tasks in the middle because your next time to switch tasks is less than 25 minutes away. For example, if you're in a task writing a report and you remember that you were supposed to send an email, you write down the email task to do later and don't worry about it because if it's important than you will pick it for your next pomodoro. This allows you to stay focused on the report you're writing for this pomodoro.

  • ZeroTrust Your Home
  • I've been researching zero-trust for my homelab recently and I'm considering OpenZiti instead of Cloudflare since I think it can all be self-hosted. The BrowZer from OpenZiti is especially interesting to me. The fact that I'm behind CGNAT is a hurdle though.

  • Evolution of authentication
  • It ends up being a lot like FIDO or Passkeys but without having to store a separate key for each site. Each key is derived from your master key and the domain so they are all unique, to prevent tracking, but you still don't have to save a separate private key blob for each site. There is also a recovery key built into the spec so that if your master key somehow gets out, you can use your recovery key to prove you're the real person and regain your account to change the signin public key.

  • Deadpool & Wolverine | Final Trailer
  • I would somewhat agree, except for things like tension or mysteries in movies which spoilers can ruin sometimes. It can remove unique experiences where you wouldn't know a characters motivations, or not know if a character will survive. They can also ruin some comedy setups where surprise is part of the humor.

  • Life
  • Yeah, it seems Buddists are more focused on mindfulness and being fully in the moment, which is kind of the opposite of escapism. Also understanding duhkha, sometimes translated as unease due to "not having what one wants" or "having what one doesn't want" and accepting it and living with it rather than striving to eliminate duhkha.

    ...and of course Buddhists have been known to kill other Buddhists for being the wrong kind of Buddhists, so ymmv
