This wouldn't be a tool for wireshark. It could be a tool for the browser dev tools though. With it you can see every time a website tries to make a connection out, what data is submitted, and what the response is. Unfortunately, if you don't understand how http works, it might be all Greek.

Generate images with self hosted models, or integrate it with art programs? Because yes to both.

Disney climbed the ladder of public domain and then pulled the ladder up behind themselves.

In this case the person you were responding to was right. It is where they put their news and weather widget. Which only exists to push people onto Bing. It is annoying, and by default pops up on rollover, not click, so it is trivially easy to accidentally pull up, pumping those Bing engagement numbers.

It took me a second to understand your picture, because for some reason, which I have just now realized, I always pictured the left on the right side of the drawn graph, and the right on the left. I have no idea why my mind drew the spectrum that way, but I had literally never questioned it until I saw your picture and thought it was backwards and realized I am the one who was backwards.

I got an ad like the a month ago, made me start looking at alternatives. I haven't found one besides Apple TV that supports all the streaming services, is made for a TV, and doesn't have worse ads. I could handle content ads for streaming services I didn't have, but just straight TV commercials on my hopepage? Get fucked Google.

As a LightBurn user and license holder, this is annoying, but I could see this being a good thing in the long run. Right now, there is very little opensource alternative to LightBurn. As of today, there is a much stronger incentive to make it happen. I'm hopeful this spurs on a modern tool in the open source community that works as an alternative. What LightBurn might have done is save them selves some support overhead and created competition. We'll see how that works out for them.

Meshtastic is a great one. People are making all kinds of software for it. I saw someone developing a BBS for it. For those who want a summary: Meshtastic is a very low bandwidth radio system for creating mesh networks. The speed of data transfer is similar to the modems of the 80s, so you aren't transferring anything but text. But the range is good and the hardware is cheap, and it is completely stand alone. It can normally pair with something like a phone for ease of access, but has its own dedicated device for a radio.

Effectively, the other option is passwords, and people are really, really, bad at passwords. Password managers help, but then you just need to compromise the password manager. Strong SSO, backed by hardware, at least makes the attack need to be either physical, or running on a hardware approved by the company. When you mix that with strong execution protections, an EDR, and general policy enforcement and compliance checking, you get protection that beats the pants off 30 different passwords to 30 different sites, or more realistically, 3 passwords to 30 different sites.

I hadn't heard of that. Thanks. Just marked up my neighborhood. This a real clever and simple way to get casual users to contribute.
