Huh, in my head I was reading it 'twit-text' (this is not meant to be a pejorative comment), but I guess that is ascribing it another 't' where there isn't one
So ideally it should "solve" a sudoku puzzle when there's one in the frame. Then you can use the snapshot button (taking you to /image) to save and download the solution.
Though if it's not solving it (Which is definitely not uncommon in less than perfect lighting etc), I can see the workflow being unclear.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but if I was on a different peertube instance, there'd be no way to discover his videos aside from word-of-mouth? As in, peertube has no global search, right?
There is offering from the creators of Peertube I believe: https://sepiasearch.org/. I think instances have to be added manually into the index, and tbh I don't use it much and so I'm not sure of the quality. But it sort of covers what you're asking for, at least kinda.
It's an awesome game, I'm playing it non-stop since last summer and embarked my 9-years old daughter along. We're sharing games and exchanging bits of information (yes, she's thinking out of the box, and it sometimes works :) )
The author, Evan, is maintaining a fediverse community for all mods of the original Pixel Dungeon, accessible via https://photon.lemmy.world/c/pixeldungeon for instance, after the Reddit troubles from last year.
What kind of security updates actually worry you though? Not trying to sound snarky, but do you install sketchy apps regularly? What are examples of actual threats are you trying to protect against? If you install untrusted apps regularly I could see why, but if not then what attack vector are you worried about? Are you worried about a WiFi attack in a coffee shop for example?
Not the person who you are replying to, but in my case, yes, connecting to a hostile WiFi and someone physically stealing my phone and having access to my entire life is exactly my fear.
Also, being able to fine-tweak app permissions is a huge plus for getting Android 6+ phone.
I've switched to Nexus 5x at the beginning of this month. Current price is around 250€, and I basically gained all the features of flagship models (fast charging, good camera, up to date software, security updates for a year from now etc).
But, up until that point, I refused to install apps that I would be scared of what would happen if they were compromised (so, nothing business-related) and apps that are asking me permissions that I don't want to allow them (as an example, no Facebook app what so ever).
Been that way ever since I became a smartphone user, which, because of my privacy fears and dissatisfaction with current market options didn't happen until like two years ago.
Regarding hostile Wi-Fi: okay, so that means when such an exploit comes out, you can then decide to buy a new phone if your phone is still not receiving updates and if your phone is vulnerable. And I would expect most such exploits to be specific to the phone brand, not the Android/Linux kernel in general. Out of curiosity, do you know of any actual such exploits that remain unpatched in (say) late versions of Android 4?
Regarding someone stealing your phone: I don't understand what this has to do with OS or hardware updates. You can put a PIN on your phone and encrypt it. Perfectly possible on older versions of Android.
Regarding fine-tweaking app permissions: Privacy Guard and XPrivacy do the same thing. Why necessarily update the OS? And in any case, why constantly keep updating the OS past Android 6 where this feature was introduced?
But I wouldn't call it a killer app when linux has great native DAW like ardour (libre), LMMS (libre), Non (libre), Renoise (proprietary) or Bitwig (proprietary) and probably others.
Obnam ( http://obnam.org ) is a similar tool but support forgetting old generations. However, it still suffers for youth problems and tends to corrupt backup repository when pruning old data on a remote server.
I'm really looking forward for a mature and feature full backup system based on git principes. Bup or obnam might be one of those.
I wrote ddar before I knew about bup. It works in a similar way, but uses sqlite and flat files for chunk storage, so removing old archives isn't a problem. I'm not aware of any corruption issues in ddar; I rely on sqlite for integrity.
ddar sounds like it could be really useful. However, it looks like the last functional change to code base on GitHub was a year and a half ago. What do you think the future of the project is? For something like backups, I wouldn't want to invest into a tool that has no prospect of support.
I'm aware, thanks. https://github.com/basak/ddar/wiki contains the content, thanks to a kind contributor. I should probably deprecate the old URL and remove references to it.
Obnam I liked using, because I love the authors attention to testing and details. But I found it started taking longer and longer and longer to run a backup - to the point that it was crazy.
I switched to atic instead, which also started taking longer to run backups as more things changed, and longer still to check the archives, but it is still faster than obnam by a significant margin:
As much as I love GNU tools "universe", I feel that this ideological position of RMS regarding GCC future is hurting more libre software than it does good.
The GPL principle of "all your code belongs to everyone" is infuriating to say the least, and the efforts of those to force this on people is even more damaging to the open-source community.
Free, open-source software has helped considerably in the last twenty years. That's why I think licenses like MIT or BSD help keep software free and truly open: Use it for what you see fit without any obligation on your part.
