To be honest, other than the argument of “everything is political,” I get where The Verge is coming from.

When I was a kid about ten years ago, it felt like EVs were uncontroversial and just the next logical step for cars. I don’t remember nearly the same levels of backlash. People in my family on both sides of the political spectrum didn’t really care too much one way or the other on them.

Now it feels much more scrutinized, both by people on the right who don’t typically care about environmental issues, and some leftists who want transit instead. And that scrutiny tends to be pretty harshly worded.

Maybe it’s down to factors like the costs of EVs. They’re damn expensive so I could see why people would get more frustrated at them. Though how they’re “woke” escapes me.

+1 on this. Easiest way to get around school filters - used to have this setup when I was in high school (well, OpenVPN, but same thing just different VPN tech).

lol my meetings start at 6:30AM, 8 is downright bougie

respectful counterpoint: marketshare is important, especially if we want to get more users to use ethical softwares instead of corporate controlled proprietary messes.

that doesn’t mean this particular issue needs to adapt to a Windows-style approach (and in fact it already can with flatpakref files, AppImages, etc.), but dismissing accessibility to people unfamiliar with Linux or dismissing having a goal of increasing Linux usage is harmful to the longevity of desktop Linux in society, and harmful to the goal of competing with the monopolistic, proprietary platforms that currently dominate.

here you go: https://github.com/wtpisaac/bruno2postman

If I get it minimally working (aka basic HTTP request and headers able to export), I will upload it to GitHub and reply to you with a link.

Yeah, I’m annoyed by this as I’m looking to script a rudimentary Bruno->postman tool, so I won’t be blocked at work on Monday. means I need to dig into their tooling.

they have an internal bru2json method that is used when exporting a collection into a single file, so I wonder what the benefit is keeping it in the proprietary format at all. maybe it makes it a bit easier to edit by hand, which is a supported use case, but there’s JSON tooling to enable good autocompletes/schemas iirc

EDIT: I has made script (very wip) https://github.com/wtpisaac/bruno2postman

I saw that too, but I couldn’t tell if it was a community or corporate backed thing; I also don’t like that it’s only available through a browser (I know Bruno is Electron, but having a separate desktop app is nice to me)

At minimum Hoppscotch sells some kind of Enterprise Edition https://docs.hoppscotch.io/documentation/self-host/enterprise-edition/getting-started

I don’t know the details, but I’ve just gotten burned too much. Bruno seems genuinely fully libre, no bs, so I’m hoping that it gets more traction.

No problem. Trying to raise awareness of this tool bc Insomnia totally screwed me up at work today.

Dickinson, however, said internal studies showed some 88% of his civilian workforce would not leave Colorado Springs for Alabama.

💀

wait, it’s all enshittification?

always has been

Haven’t seen much yet, but driving through Colorado and its mountains comes to mind. Absolutely gorgeous state, and the roads going through the lush green forests and steep mountains + rock faces were awe inspiring to me, having spent most of my life in California cities.

for real, not only is OP a god awful transphobe, but they clearly have shit taste. Emily’s content is the best out of LTT.

(Not sure how I’m feeling about that channel post allegations, I’m no longer watching it, but Emily’s content quality is indisputable)

well, closer at least, given voice calls in a group is still proposal stage: https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/3401

but most people I know use discord primarily for text chat (outside of gaming)

I would really like to see Spaces added if possible. This app is quite good and would be excellent to recommend seriously as a Discord alternative, with the mainline Element client being substantially slower and clunkier. Spaces support would deliver that.

yeah, OK, I didn’t realize QAnon had outright financial scams out of it. Wow.

(Found this research on one particular scam - helps put it into perspective. Linking for anyone else who might be unaware)

Yeah, that’s fair - but I suspect if it is anyone not super elderly, or just anyone not bumbling their way into it unintentionally, they may be more likely to be aware of your actions - and that’s bound to create some very nasty conflict that you might be no better off if you get into.

As the other commenters pointed out though - for certain classes like the elderly, and maybe anyone else not-at-all technically savvy, it might make sense. I’m sorta responding assuming intent of the person to get to QAnon, and assuming they might know enough to find they can access it on other networks but not home.

Yeah, another commenter made the point of very elderly people, which admittedly I might not have the best perspective on needing to handle. They would probably not notice, and it would probably not create any real issues.

My reaction was more if you tried to do this to a normal, younger to middle aged person - where I would suspect if the filtering were to come to light, it could create some very nasty conflict. But also in that case I’d suspect anyone trying to reach QAnon material is more likely intentionally trying to get to it, versus some 80-something who might have one Q moron in their Facebook feed that sends them somewhere no one ought to go.

OK, I guess that’s a valid edge case. Still, I’d be wary of how that would really work out - if they were to become aware that you were filtering the internet, I would suspect that could lead to some really bad conflict.

Though, for the very elderly, yeah they probably wouldn’t notice. There’s some nuance there I didn’t think about.
