that trend continued, i’d say. ever seen shark boy and lava girl?

they did their autoupdate through an unencrypted connection, without any verification, and just executed the payload locally. when pressed about it they added https but then it turned out they had no auth on the update server. it was a whole thing, took several years for them to correct and they complained every step.

i think “a tenth of the budget” is a pretty good excuse honestly

gedit and kate are better alternatives honestly. and with their security practices i would rather be without.

bash could really have improved things by giving us noitcnuf.

fi and esac but not rof or elihw

smh my head

as long as you’re having fun and learning. although i don’t know if it’s dogfooding if you’re a one-man band; seems more like just cooking.

that’s probably not true for most people. there are over 30 local versions of sesame street co-produced by the henson company and whatever tv-station in a particular country requested it, with different focus, cast, and stories, but with the same general aesthetic and target audience.

the swedish one took place in a theater and only got two seasons.

oh damn that’s a lot…

most terminal fonts are very careful to distinguish them. commonly i uses an extra half-serif up top and l a tail, making it look a bit like a backwards j.

that’s why they removed it, probably. denuvo only keeps that stuff on as long as nobody has breached it.

iirc there are only a few people who actually know how to do it, too.

did you click the link? did you read the thread? no worries, i will help you.

exhibit a, the official response:

exhibit b, the post in question:

Edit:

and just for good measure, the actual text of the ToS, with the change highlighted:

You must not share any content that’s expressing hate or encouraging violence towards a person or group for any reason. We also explicitly do not tolerate:

• Discriminatory behaviour towards and promoting oppression, especially of marginalized groups on grounds of ethnicity, gender, disability, nationality, education, age, and religion.
• Violent nationalist propaganda, Nazi symbolism or promoting the ideology of National Socialism.
• Mobbing, stalking, doxxing (exposing someone’s personal information), brigading (inciting a group to spam a specific place for any reason), threatening and harassment, as well as encouraging others to do those things.
• Insults, discriminatory jokes, sexualized comments and other unwanted sexual attention.
• Sexually obscene content, including content involving the exploitation or sexualization of minors.
• Content that’s glorifying violence; that includes any violent material without a proper content warning.
• Content that harms the reputation of Codeberg, such as cryptocurrency related projects.

i get the rationale of the dev that it’s too easy to masquerade as another user, but it feels like that could probably be worked around. reveal the real name when poked or something. anyway i tend to go though old convos in the browser so i tend to pick up people’s displaynames.

writing a text editor in a shell language is certainly… a choice. also this kinda feels like an ad for your own project.

anyway i’ve gone notepad, np++, eclipse, sublime, atom, vim, nvim, back to vim, then vis, then vim again, and now helix, which i’ll hopefully stick with a while. worst has gotta be the GMod Wiremod Expression editor. honorable mention to acme.

ayn rand?

…oh, actual vampires.

man i love that early 90’s cg. poor job looks vacuum-packed.

voyager is nice, as long as you’re okay with it not showing display names.

… is your terminal okay?

isn’t he the dianetics guy?

no they didn’t. it’s right there in the thread; they reserve the right to remove any project that “damages the reputation of codeberg”, with crypto scams listed as an example.
