I use flightaware and similar apps, but they all eventually want a subscription. Bleugh.
Is this one totally free … or at least better than your average app?
If you have a little technical skill, you can set up your own raspberry pi ads-b receiver really easily. Just need the raspi, and SDR dongle, and an antenna. Floghtaware provides a flash image for the OS. If you feed them data, you get a free premium subscription. I used to use it to get alerts when the state patrol speed trap aircraft were taking off so I knew not to speed on a long interstate commute.
Thanks. I’m sorry it’s yet another science project, though.
I’m plenty technical, with a few C contributions to projects in the web and VPN space. But with two jobs and three ageing parents, I’m tapped out!
Hey when did I comment this
Totally get it. My SD card got corrupted in a power outage almost a year ago and I never got around to reflashing it. To many other irons in the fire.
I must say, it was an impressively reliable setup, uptime was effectively limited by power outages. Their image is basically Raspbian which is basically debian, but I was still impressed that the service was so stable.
I like to plan ahead and after posting my info in the website https://www.death-clock.org/ it scared me into changing my eating habits.
Without endorsing these liberal American news outlets,
Ad-free, js-free, tracker-free, bs-free news articles. Just text. Honestly, it’s a bit of a shock to me that these even exist.
Semi-related is the Boring Report. It’s an attempt to use modern LLM to remove sensationalism and bias from current media headlines.
Was about to post the same exact thing. Good job.
CNN is now owned by a MAGA-loving billionaire. Definitely not a liberal news source at all - hence the many changes happening at a slow trickle.
Are you talking about that Chris Licht guy? Or who are you referring to?
Wow the CNN lite thing is awesome! I think it’d be great to set up a permanent redirect to it from the CNN website. Probably will use TamperMonkey and set it up
Wasn’t CNN bought by a Trumpite a while ago?
If memory hold true yes. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2022/sep/10/objective-cnn-rightwing-week-in-patriarchy

I will spend a good amount of time on those sites! Fascinating!
What is different about your links that i can’t click on a single one? I’m on mobile and touching them does nothing, but i can click on others’ links.
works fine for me on Memmy iOS
I don’t know. They’re formatted the regular way
They all work fine for me but I’m using Connect.
Fantastic list, thanks.
That’s a great list, I have bookmarked a bunch of those entries, Thanks for sharing it.
Nice list, thanks
All mentioned site absolutely great!
I can’t seem to click this

Hacker news is good for links, but the comment section can be radioactive with capitalist tech dude bros that think technology and VC funding is the answer to the worlds problems.

Nice to explore latest news! (Mostly are for techie people)
is there a site like this but not focused on tech ? I like it but it doesn’t have that much non-tech links
Surprising how many people won’t just go search for the answer to their question before asking it online.
google is becoming more useless by the day
ad riddled spyware
startpage.com mojeek.com Searx.be
Alternative search engines that respect privacy. 👌
Y’know, sometimes people ask questions on public forums rather than just searching on Google because they want to start a conversation.
Yeah those aren’t the kinds of questions I’m talking about. I’m talking about ones with objective answers that can be easily searched.
Obviously.
Even a question with an objective answer can be elaborated further upon through engagement with an actual person.
This type of question is worth to be posted here, IMO
To figure out if your email addresses are part of a known breach. Also, start using a password manager (https://bitwarden.com)
and if my Email is part of any kind of breach, is thier something else I should do beside changing my password ?
PS: I do have 2FA activated already
Use a unique password for everything. I recommend bitwarden
Is this really that useful though?
I pretty much just assume that I’m getting pwned regularly.
Obviously the password manager advice is very useful.
Is this really that useful though?
It’s very useful if you don’t use a password manager and/or reuse passwords.
The most useful part about it to me is the API. You can tie it in to Active Directory to blacklist all hashes that appear in any breach, plus expire/force a password change if any user on your domain uses a password that has been in a breach. It completely eliminates that vector from threat actors immediately.
So yeah, I would call this intensely useful.

This trick alone makes my Lemmy addiction pay off. Thanks for even suggesting such magic is possible. Adding that as a task after my samba-AD rebuild this very f’n week.
👍

So who has the highest score? I’ve got 21 on my OG email and 13 on my primary 🤣
30 on my OG and what use to be my primary up until a year ago.
A good alternative to Bitwarden is KeePass/KeepassXC btw
A good alternative to keepass is a self hosted vaultwarden btw. (compiled from bitwardens opensource code iirc)
I agree. But I think is much easier for people to use KeePass compared to self hosting Vaultwarden
I agree, I do this and it works great.
Nothing can beat passwords written on paper though
Scissors can.
I was talking about digital espionage, assuming one is not stupid enough to record their offline passwords digitally
So I will write them on a rock, instead.
But paper beats rock
Physical access can. Indentations on the below page can. Fire and moisture can. Someone looking over your shoulder can.
Vaultwarden is not compiled from Bitwarden’s code, it’s a separate project and codebase but designed to be compatible with Bitwarden’s API.
Bitwarden is open source and you can self-host it but IIRC it’s a bit more complex and resource-hungry than Vaultwarden.
They have totally different design goals which is why Bitwarden is more resource-hungry and more complex to deploy. Bitwarden can scale up to large use cases such as companies with hundreds of thousands of employees (it’s what they run on the hosted version, after all), whereas Vaultwarden is designed to be small and light for home use cases where you almost always have <10 users total.
I found keepassium for the work phone and I was in love that I could keep a separate db with my OTPs under a password and backed up.
Then I left that job and had to split my OTPs. Vanilla keepass for droid will gives me the OTP values for gitlab etc, so it’s good there, but Vanilla keepassium for Android has no camera/QR->OTP input that I have yet, one that works like keepassium does and is all compatible down the line. I’d love to keep using it to maintain the existing separate keepass OTP db I have.
Do you (or anyone) know of a good combo for droid that gets
- keepass
- backup to box/gdoc/etc
- qr for OTP
In one final package? Does XC do it in a way we think may be compatible?
Keepass2Android does all that on android. It natively supports Dropbox, google drive, one drive, nextcloud, pcloud, and mega, plus you can use WebDAV or sftp. When editing an entry, the totp setup has the ability to scan qr codes with the camera. Plus, the whole thing is free and open source.
They even have a package on F-Droid, though that build lacks the built-in support for cloud syncing (due to F-Droid restrictions prohibiting binaries, I think).
I’ve used this app for years on android, paired with various cloud sync options as providers change their restrictions and capabilities. On desktop, I use keepassxc.
Hm i switched from KeePass to Bitwarden because the latter lets me use my passwords on multiple devices and as a Firefox extension that enters my credentials at a shortcut.
Can you elaborate why you think KeePass is better?
I do all of that with Keepass, for what it’s worth.
I think it’s more flexible. Also, due to the databases just being normal files you can sync them with syncthing between your devices.
In my case I run a NAS at home on which they’re stored so I don’t need to sync them. I just open them directly from the NAS.
Spoiler alert: Yes. Yes it has.
I use this to cut through the bullshit of Prime Day deals or Black Friday. It shows you the historical price of a product.
I literally just used this site last week to set up a price alert for a purchase.
Noticed via their chart that the item I wanted to buy (an air purifier) went on sale every few weeks from $340 to $199. I set the alert for $200, and the next day it emailed me saying the price had dropped. Saved me 140 bucks which was awesome.
Works for Amazon.ca links as well.
Crazy how I have a bunch of alerts set up on here, prime day started and I didn’t have a single item drop in price.
Also I believe there is a browser plug-in for this as well to make it even easier to use.
I’ll also come in just to mention the android app “TryCamel”. Being able to conveniently add things when on mobile was a game changer for me.
Same! I find the alerts come at times when there are no holidays or events. Like on a random Tuesday afternoon in the middle of June I get an alert that a game or movie is $20 when it’s been $40-60 the last 6 months. Prime Day comes around and it’s “on sale” for $55.
Http://keepa.com is also really good

Two things I learned… you can apparently see a human embryo with the naked eye and Japanese spider crabs are terrifying.
I’ve seen one. They’re not actually humongous, just really stretched out. They’re still shorter than you, probably. But yeah, nightmarish.
Nice! It even works great on mobile, thanks!
spent a good 20 minutes on this!
this is a classic 😊
