I mean, there’s a big ol’ warning in the docs: https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/linux-postinstall/

The docker group grants root-level privileges to the user

But, I guess Docker doesn’t really tell you not to do this… and I feel like a lot of mac users are not used to adding sudo at the front of docker commands so… idk.

surely they wouldnt have invested trillons on it if it was garbage

Resources has been accepted into the GNOME Incubator, with the goal of eventually replacing the current System Monitor in GNOME Core.

Ooooh. Resources is pretty nice.

GitHub issue about this: https://github.com/jqwik-team/jqwik/issues/708#issuecomment-4554650392

the agent detected and refused the injection on first contact

Shame. Prompt needs more work.

Maybe instead of deleting the code, it should do something more subtle… like telling the agent to generate (even more) mountains of code and introduce subtle bugs, crashes, and sleeps.

Huh. Good to know!

I’m not sure limiting customization is actually a good thing… There are legitimate customizations and innovative inputs that people like.

For example, Logseq has a fancy text field that can bring up a submenu if you type two left brackets. Something like this is pretty specific to Logseq (or at least certain notes apps) and this would be much harder to replicate in a native app.

Or are you saying Logseq shouldn’t do that? And it should assume that the notes area is just a plain text field? I guess that would be considered more “expected”.

At least in my experience with Vala and GTK, this would take significantly more effort. Not impossible. Just way more effort.

Most native apps collect far more data than their website equivalents ever could. They request permissions to hardware, sensors, and background processes that browsers deliberately restrict.

On March 27, 2026, the Trump administration released an official White House app for iOS and Android. … Apple requires apps to submit a privacy manifest disclosing what data they collect. The White House app declared an empty array. Zero data collection. Meanwhile, the actual binary contained ten analytics frameworks, including the full OneSignal SDK with a sub-framework specifically for location tracking

Hm. Didn’t think about it like that.

Web apps ruined UX though

How so? Do you mean that companies are allowed to customize their own apps now? Cuz with regular desktop frameworks it’s pretty hard to do that (compared to web frameworks anyway). All apps end up looking the same.

No local storage or offline capability

Yeah, this is 100% wrong. They definitely can use local storage and have offline capabilities.

They even have an object store: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/IndexedDB_API

Has anyone had to work with Advanced SubStation Alpha files? Extension .ass.

I don’t think you need too many subscriptions for self-hosting. Just the domain. And that’s only if you want to be fancy. You can just use an IP address. Or services like Netbird give you a free domain (whatever.netbird.cloud). Uh, what else. Uh, the electricity subscription? My server idles at about 70w. It runs 24/7. (Netbird and Tailscale are free options for creating VPNs.)

That’s kinda the point of self-hosting that you don’t have subscriptions.

starting into homelab/selfhosting.

There is a 1-time up-front cost though. You need to acquire hardware and right now AI is messing everything up. Hardware is at an all time high. Maybe you can find more affordable used hardware somewhere.

Is anyone running https://plasma-bigscreen.org/ yet?

The best supported third-party device is the Sony Xperia 10 mk3.

If you don’t want to install it yourself, you can buy the mk3 with SailfishOS already pre-installed here: https://buy.jolla-devices.com/product/sony-xperia-10-iii-sailfish-os/

They shipped to me in the US. It works on Mint Mobile.

Yes, it’s a little old, but it runs pretty smooth actually. So far at least.

It works on US bands! I have one! I’ve been able to send SMS and make phone calls fine on Mint Mobile.

(Still haven’t had time to fully switch over from my Fairphone 6 though.)

Wait! Sorry.

Uh, I think you’re talking about the Jolla C2 specifically. I can report that the Sony Xperia 10mk3 with SailfishOS works fine. Not sure about the C2.

Yeah, definitely. Legitimate or not (and probably more likely not), we’re going back to: What does god want me to do oh “wise” AI priest? I can’t think for myself.

Ah, yep. :/

Yep. Recently convinced my brother to install Fedora Silverblue on it.

Not only will America go to your country and kill all your people. But they’ll come back 20 years later and make a movie about how killing your people made their soldiers feel sad.

I wonder if instead of Jellyfin + Tailscale, people should be doing Jellyfin + Netbird.

Netbird offers a reverse proxy, so you can easily expose Jellyfin to the public Internet and not have to jump through hoops for friends and family…

At least, in theory… I haven’t tried this setup yet, but I’m thinking about it…

I bought my parent’s an Android TV, just so they could install Tailscale on it. Unfortunately, Android TV keeps killing Tailscale or doesn’t launch it on boot. They’re old, so they can’t really troubleshoot VPN issues.

I’m in the US and when I tried migrating from DO to Hetzner, I got asked to upload my passport to prove I’m not spam or something. Same experience with OVH.

Is this a thing for all European hosting companies? I ended up finding some Canadian hosting that would just let me sign up and pay like normal.
