I’m on my way through Revelation Space, current listening to Redemption Ark. It’s a great series for my daily commute!

It requires a malicious hypervisor, it seems? At that point it seems pretty hard to remain secure in the guests regardless.

tl;dr “Theoretically, yes [you can catch diseases from the toilet seat], but the risk is vanishingly low,” says Jill Roberts, a professor of public health and microbiology. Also covering seat in toilet paper doesn’t really work against germs.

Yum, looks great!

Great list, thank you!

That looks fantastic :)

Allons-y!

That’s my approach - once in a while I take a peek at /all, get stressed out and quickly retreat to my curated home again.

Do we trust Amanda though? If it’s the only HMD she tried today, it doesnt say much.

Joking aside it’s some pretty impressive specs for roughly 1300 USD.

That made me laugh, thank you for reminding me of that episode!

Yes. I’m excited to try it out :)

It’s impressive, but security’s going to be a fun (hard) one to solve for general usage: https://embracethered.com/blog/posts/2024/claude-computer-use-c2-the-zombais-are-coming/

Except stuff like push notifications, that requires the pwa to be added to home screen.

Same people and companies that buy high-end headsets such as Varjo XR-4.

This. My friend had a triple stroke shortly after having neck manipulation done by a standin for his usual chiropractor. Luckily he survived, but it has very much opened my eyes to how dangerous it can be.

Also note that mac addresses can change automatically on iOS, because of the Private Wifi Address feature

Seems a little off that a hack of “all of Sonys systems” only yielded approx 6000 files, or am I missing something? :)

I tried the python code out and it actually does work for me, ie. I’m able to update an existing bookmark.

# hashing code from link inserted here
def update_place(id, new_url):
    new_url_hash = url_hash(new_url)
    conn = sqlite3.connect('places.sqlite')
    cur = conn.cursor()
    cur.execute('UPDATE moz_places SET url = ?, url_hash = ? WHERE id = ?', (new_url, new_url_hash, id))
    conn.commit()
    cur.close()
    conn.close()

update_place(16299, "javascript:alert('Testing bookmarklet update ...');alert('Great success!');")

Only annoying thing is that Firefox needs to be closed while updating. Anyway, I haven’t tried with bigger scripts though, so there might be some gotchas there.

Agreed, keywords are really nice for keyboard navigation!

Thanks a million, great info once again! I didn’t realize that the %s was simply replaced (because that seems a little dirty), but it makes sense in the bookmark context.

Yeah, the development flow is a little tricky :) Ideally it would be nice to re-apply/import them automatically without user interaction and/or run automated testing. I fiddled a little with the command-line (for testing), ie. firefox -url “javascript:…”, but it doesn’t seem to work. Accessing the places database directly would be great of course. I’ve been thinking about using the enterprise policies, but haven’t gotten around to testing it.
