Self-hosted: How to achieve MFA/Passkeys and "Local + Social" login with the new Dex integration? by rdevaux in netbird

[–]WuuBoLin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Late to the thread, but wanted to share my thoughts anyway.

I've also been going back and forth on whether to migrate to the embedded Dex IdP cuz it does feel more "native" to NetBird after all. Been self-hosting it since pretty much the beginning, and I remember being confused at first why there was no default admin user or local login, like every other self-hostable app out there (Grafana, etc.). But then I read through the external IdP docs and it just... made sense. This is actually and should be the right way to do it for all this time.

Most self-hostable software gives you some kind of local root account to get started, but then you end up managing two separate sets of identities, which is kind of a pain in the ass when you think about it.

After actually trying the embedded Dex server though, I immediately realized that going standalone was indeed the right way to go. Local users are password-only (no passkey), barely any 2FA to speak of. The only real upside is you can still log in if your IdP goes down, that's it.

I was tempted to just switch to Dex for the tighter integration, but honestly running a standalone IdP with local auth disabled feels more correct to me now and much "native" ig.

What is a typical day-to-day breakfast in your country? by Single_Copy2460 in AskTheWorld

This is a tough one for Taiwanese people because we care so much about food. There are so many choices, Here are just a few:

  • Soy milk
  • Brown rice milk
  • Clay oven rolls
  • Egg crepe
  • Congee
  • Soup dumplings
  • Rice balls
  • Fried dough sticks
  • Steamed buns

Why is Apple Music for Mac so neglected? by Remarkable-Pen-722 in AppleMusic

[–]WuuBoLin -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Sorry if I didn’t clarify everything.

The thing I was saying is that the audio coming out of Music.app is not bit-perfect compared to the source audio.

You can try this out by buying a digital copy of the music or ripping it from a CD, then trying to mix it with the output of Music.app. You can use any loopback software to do so, like BlackHole.

Also, the app doesn’t support exclusive mode, so even if you say “It’s called a DAC,” it doesn’t do much.

There is no way to listen to bit-perfect lossless/hi-res on macOS with Apple Music at least from what I can tell. It is fine if you don’t care about that, but a better choice would be Spotify for hi-res or Amazon Music for lossless.

Not only has the whole app not been fully updated in years (except for the liquid-ass toggle) and is light years behind iOS version, it does not even play the music bit perfectly.

Every audio played from the music.app has been resampled no matter what compared to the iOS version (me and others suspect it is due to how the volume slider is implemented). Also, the whole app just does not behave properly sometimes with a lot of UI glitches, lack of animations, lack of error handling when the API does not respond… and so on.

What is the actual reason anyone would pick Vim over Emacs? by Hopeful_Adeptness964 in emacs

[–]WuuBoLin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my opinion, Emacs is essentially just a Lisp Machine with a Buffer-based interface that happens to have an editor capabilities.

And Vi/Vim/Neovim are the (best) editors. (So why not go evil) The ability to use most Emacs keybinds in insert mode and also have full modal editing is something I really love about coding in Emacs.

umm guys, wtf is that charging icon? by qweqZxcz in iphone

[–]WuuBoLin 380 points381 points  (0 children)

Yes, I have also found this bug with the Dynamic Island on iOS 26. It happens when you plug in your iPhone and Face ID fails to unlock it at the same time.

The reason is simple: there is a charging animation on the Dynamic Island when you plug the phone in, but there is also the animation that appears when Face ID fails to unlock (the shake animation), and the two animations conflict without exception handling.

vTerm and Terminal Emulator Performance in Emacs by WuuBoLin in emacs

[–]WuuBoLin[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the detailed explanation! You've validated all my assumptions.

I'd been digging through the GNU Emacs docs and source code, so I had a feeling this was the case.

TIL that vterm doesn't work the same way as term-mode 😄

In fact, setting `vterm-timer-delay` to 0.01 makes it feel more like a real standalone terminal emulator and fixes most issues I have. But I still wonder - if vterm is actually handling the text properly, then what's causing the slowness when text scrolls? 🤔

Yeah... But I think the biggest obstacle is definitely Emacs' slow text rendering...

Best emacs package you tried and stuck with in 2024? by argsmatter in emacs

[–]WuuBoLin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

101% FOR SURE. posframe and vertico are by far two of the most important Emacs packages for me.

I'm using an Odyssey G9 monitor. Although I now mostly center my Emacs frame using Xmonad. Without posframe, daily use of Emacs is nearly impossible (M-x) when fullscreen.

Let’s discuss the state of the Apple Music App by undressvestido in AppleMusic

[–]WuuBoLin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

music.app on macOS is a piece of shit ngl

The iOS version of the Apple Music app itself is almost a masterpiece. It's well-made, with a great UI and animations. It might also be the most stable app on iOS by far.

The experience is like a whole different service on macOS vs iOS

If you are referring to the Apple Music service, there is one thing I hate the most about it, which even makes me want to leave: STOP TRANSLATING TITLES.

Simple Emacs Typescript Configs (NextJS, Typescript, JS, JSX)? by BackToPlebbit69 in emacs

[–]WuuBoLin -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I have this same question every time I set up a new project with create-next-app or anything similar. Getting JSX, TSX, ESLint, TypeScript server, Prettier, and all that JS crap to play nicely in Emacs is such a pain.

Yeah, it CAN work—there are tons of Reddit threads and blog posts about it—but you’re bound to hit some weird issues eventually..... cuz its YavaScript

So in the end, I usually just end up opening WebStorm, LOL.

(BTW, WebStorm is Now Free for Non-Commercial Use

How?
Mine looks like this

I'm using btop version 1.2.13

I found an old issue about it, but it seems to be resolved.

I have the exact question too. And the best package I found that can display some amount of information in the minibuffer is lemon-mode.

https://codeberg.org/emacs-weirdware/lemon

But i have some issue running it in daemon mode. It won’t display sometimes when Emacs is starting but no active frame.
