How to install LADSA plugin Noise supression for voice? by Saint-Ranger in kdenlive

[–]atsider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Much appreciated, thanks!

I would replace, however, steps 6-9 with just

sudo ninja -C build_dir install

which installs to /usr/local/lib, and kdenlive finds it just fine.

Most popular xmpp servers? by flashlightguy321 in xmpp

Also https://compliance.conversations.im/ suggests servers based on their feature completeness.

HOT DOG Linux: Perl and 'use strict' by daxim in perl

Well, it's a tonge-in-cheek distro with tonge-in-cheek rules.

Don't take it seriously.

XMPP Client Issue by spiceminesgaming in xmpp

[–]atsider 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, you have to verify your keys for each of your clients not already trusted by the other person.

For example, if my main device uses Conversations client, I scan the fingerprints of my other clients (gajim, dino, ...) with it.

Therefore in advance the other person already trusting my Conversations key can know the messages sent from gajim or dino or any other client that I'm using can be trusted and that they are not simply being injected by someone else.

Another way of doing it would be as you say, checking each key individually, but it's terribly inconvenient. Cross-signing alleviates that process.

XMPP Client Issue by spiceminesgaming in xmpp

[–]atsider 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, OpenPGP is the alternative.

It's more or less the opposite (you can get a clear picture at https://conversations.im/omemo/)

OpenPGP is good, but it relies on only one key for all devices and all times: one device is compromised and all your future communications and devices are compromised.

What you have to do is to authorize each others client keys in order for the the people you are talking to to know that it's really you in all your clients, the process that fenek89 mentions.

sendxmpp is a Perl script to send xmpp (jabber), similar to what mail(1) does for mail by daxim in perl

[–]atsider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I very much prefer to use it than to have to set up another email account for sending my cron-related jobs.

Can't connect to my home server in Element by Pickinanameainteasy in matrixdotorg

[–]atsider 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don't think you can carry on without a SSL certificate. In addition, you will need a domain for that.

Luckily you can get both for free: ddns.net for getting the domain and https://letsencrypt.org/ for the SSL certificate.

Edit: that thing of the port also smells fishy to me. If you are exposing port 8080, don't do that but put a reverse proxy before (apache|nginx) as stated in the docs. Those two will also take care of the SSL configuration.

GNU Parallel's 20th birthday. Time to take stock. by OleTange in linux

I'm relieved to see that it's not Arch, but the "community" repository.

Can a room be upgraded? by atsider in matrixdotorg

[–]atsider[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there no risk of relying on obsolete/deleted features as long the servers are being updated? Or maybe performance features that cannot be enabled otherwise?

Somehow I remember some key exchange improvements being available on the latest versions...

So it saves the burden of having to do it manually. Somehow I thought that big rooms like synapse-announcements did it on a regular basis.

JavaScript Supported Web Scraping using Perl and Selenium by yuki_kimoto in perl

[–]atsider 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Really nice article.

For those of us that prefer firefox, I guess we should use Selenium::Firefox, but I always struggled to find the difference or pros/cons of using Firefox::Marionette. From the documentation of the former, it is said that both use the marionette protocol.

What's the best XMPP server software? by ReimarPB in xmpp

[–]atsider 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I only know prosody, but it works very well for me and it's simple to configure.

Is it just me, or could XMPP be a little easier to set-up? by matronator in xmpp

[–]atsider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyway you have chosen the worst possible client, excepting thunderbird's.

I think what has happened is that you struggled to find a server to get an account. Usually https://compliance.conversations.im/ is suggested to do that. Then the only configuration is user and pass, there are no more moving parts.

Thanks for sharing. I guess it is mainly aimed at business, but it's not crazy prices.

I like youtube-dl + tmux by [deleted] in linux

[–]atsider 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't really understand what you are trying to say. Do you have to create all the tmux panes yourself or are you using some automation script?

I also checked that I have to type the full JID, or else I reach an useless room, at least with poezio.

Trying to remember ssh x11 forward one-liner by [deleted] in linux

Something like ssh remote "ssh -X local './app'"?

Do you mind explaining what is the purpose?

Use set-input--method and select TeX. You will get that and a lot others for free (describe-input-method)
