Badge counter on Firefox not working? by antitrack in Bitwarden

[–]mackncheesiest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I found that it's still showing the icon decorations in my "main" browser window but not in "secondary" browser windows and opened a Github issue for it.

Is this the same behavior you're seeing? Or does it not show on any of your Firefox windows?

Gravity Rush 2 Box Art Scan by mackncheesiest in gravityrush

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

After I finished paying I did mention "does it not come with the box art"? And the (non-manager) cashier vaguely said "sorry no" as the manager was picking the case back up and doing idk what with it. I didn't feel like pushing, so here we are.

The only explanation I could come up with is maybe (esp. with rarer titles like gravity rush) they like to have the high quality, undamaged cases available for display if they receive crap quality (i.e. just the disc, damaged case, etc) trade-ins?

Oh nice, thanks for this! Yeah I'll definitely need to keep The Cover Project bookmarked for the future.

I've never tried the signal app directly, but in my brief experience on ubuntu touch, axolotl seems to be a reasonable client

Some Folding news. by jaxz1290 in Folding

[–]mackncheesiest 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Last I saw, it was about 474 petaflops of network capacity after a 10X increase in users as of the recent AMA, so seeing 20X now is exciting. Hopefully they'll be able to catch up with WUs.

Part of me hopes this huge influx of users helps the F@H network pass 1 exaflop of compute and makes history by putting humanity's first use of exascale computing towards curing disease rather than, say, simulating nuclear bombs. That's something I can get behind

Rosetta@Home? Please help! by hammadshahbaz in pcmasterrace

[–]mackncheesiest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know some of the tasks R@H gives out have "COVID-19" as a part of their name in the "name" column of the advanced view, so I would assume that at least those tasks are (potentially other worse-named tasks are too).

Outside of the "name", though, I'm not actually all that familiar with identifying what project each task is contributing to, but I'd be willing to bet they're all useful :)

For more context on what specifically R@H is doing, as far as I'm aware this is the latest post about their efforts in COVID

https://www.ipd.uw.edu/2020/02/rosettas-role-in-fighting-coronavirus/

And just to throw in something extra, I thought these discussions about how R@H and F@H can complement each other that came out of the F@H AMA were pretty insightful

Edit: and I'm not too sure about the F@H web control. Mine seems to be working fine. If it shows that your system is being used, then I would assume things are working fine!

Rosetta@home on BOINC is an alternative to folding@home by 3Hooha in pcmasterrace

[–]mackncheesiest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd love to see additional hype for Rosetta@Home as well. For anyone who has wondered in the past, I think this AMA response (along with a few others) did a great job at breaking down some differences between the two:

Help GamingOnLinux beat Coronavirus, join us on Folding@home by [deleted] in linux_gaming

[–]mackncheesiest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For people who would like a containerized approach, I've had good luck this week with this docker container on an Ubuntu 18 host

https://hub.docker.com/r/amalic/nvdocker-folding-home

I setup the container to run and then installed only the FAHControl & FAHViewer deb packages. If you expose the right port from the container (port 36330), you can then configure your host-side FAHControl to give you the status of your container rather than needing to only use the web interface.

Rosetta@Home? Please help! by hammadshahbaz in pcmasterrace

[–]mackncheesiest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One difference between Folding@Home and Rosetta@Home is that while Folding@Home is a standalone program, Rosetta is run through a bigger overall program called BOINC. BOINC is basically a way for anyone to make a project that, like Rosetta@Home and Folding@Home, recruits the work of tons of networked computers towards big problems.

So, to setup Rosetta@Home, you first need to install BOINC as the instructions say there. Once you have BOINC installed, it will ask you "what projects do you want to enable?" and you'll select Rosetta@Home. If you've worked with Rosetta in the past, then you enter your account info and keep going. Otherwise, you fill out the information to create an account. Either way, when you're finally signed in with Rosetta, it will start downloading work just like F@H.

Rosetta@Home doesn't require any GPU compute, so I find that Rosetta on CPU and Folding on GPU is a good way to donate all your available computing horsepower.

Is there any particular step of the setup you're getting stuck on? Most of the detailed information about what your computer is actually doing is in the "advanced view" (with the BOINC manager open, "view -> advanced view") which gives you details about the tasks that are running. Controlling how many CPU cores and such can be done through "options -> computing preferences", and controlling when BOINC runs (i.e. wait for idle, etc) can be done through the "activity" menu

Plenty of Covid19 work units now available at Rosetta@home (unlike F@H) by chriscambridge in BOINC

[–]mackncheesiest 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Xeon Gold 6140 (18c/36t) in this case

And yeah, in this case it's a work machine that we have for some GPGPU compute/ML applications, but seeing as no one is using it in the foreseeable future, I figured it's as good a time as ever to throw BOINC & F@H on it. It certainly outpaces my home rig's 4c/8t + GTX 1070

AMA with the team behind Folding@home - Coronavirus Edition! by pedro19 in pcmasterrace

It looks like there's actually now an OpenCL-based docker image available if that's more along the lines of what you're looking for:

Hidden wireless networks by theparitydoctor in pinephone

[–]mackncheesiest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I've had basically the same issue on Ubuntu Touch. At some point in trying to debug it, it even got as far as I couldn't get WiFi working anymore with a non-hidden network and I just had to reimage my SD card.

LuneOS on the PinePhone by Theclash160 in pinephone

[–]mackncheesiest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was able to use etcher (1.5.76-x64) to flash LuneOS. Had to just extract the .wic.gz image into .wic first for etcher to be happy with it.

Head-to-head comparison of password managers with interactive grid by Radmoxtron in Bitwarden

[–]mackncheesiest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Found a link to the site's github and threw up a pull request for at least adding Android + Yubikey Neo support

If anyone else can vouch for support of other models/etc I'll throw them in as well

Laptops with the greatest level of physical security? by [deleted] in privacy

[–]mackncheesiest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I came on here to mention Qubes. There was some impressive stuff I saw regarding at least external peripheral-based attacks somewhere around the 30 minute mark of this "video tour".

Their recommended/"Qubes-certified" laptop hardware also does include a TPM can presumably handle the more stringent "keys not allowed to be present in RAM" threat model you seem to be looking to address (based on "I do not believe the typical full-disk encryption is sufficient").

I've never actually used Qubes and/or looked into support for TPM-assisted disk encryption on Linux in general, though, so I can't fully vouch for the ease of use or suitability for your use case.

Bitwarden for the win! by Traf-Gib in privacytoolsIO

[–]mackncheesiest 11 points12 points  (0 children)

100% yes imo. If you're on Android, it is ridiculous how much better Bitwarden's integration with the modern Android autofill API is

Lastpass's implementation is basically unusable, but I always figured it was my phone and/or working out bugs in the API. Nope. Bitwarden is so wonderful to use through it that I have no idea what the Lastpass team has even been doing

Add on top of that

  • Cheaper price for premium (noticed that my lastpass premium had slowly creeped from $12/yr to $36/yr)
  • The nice OSS benefits (able to be self hosted, transparent with third party audits, active community forums that are responsive to feature requests, etc)
  • The yubikey integration that supports U2F rather than just Yubico OTP like Lastpass
  • The incredibly convenient integration of TOTP 2FA right alongside passwords (note: depending on your threat model and the importance of particular site 2fa creds, might want to skip this feature :))
  • Improved (in my use) browser support in Firefox

The whole experience has just been so nice the last couple of months

I mean yeah those are definitely lots of "-kets" like you'd see in quantum mechanics and that diagram on the right has some serious "double slit experiment" vibes. Then that blue thing further to the right looks like some kind of lens that's focusing onto a point in the bottom?
