It does sound like SUSE mainly removed them due to issues specifically with how Deeping was packaged for SUSE. It's likely that there were also issues with Fedora's packaging (if that was also handled by upstream), but not necessarily that they were the same issues, so I get why they wouldn't just blindly copy their decision.

(It also looks like Deepin's working to correct the SUSE-specific issues, which is good to see.)

Inspired by road safety innovations widely used in the Netherlands, several US cities are installing street crossings that can better protect pedestrians and bicyclists.

I hadn't updated my Firefox Nightly on Android for a while (two releases), and just did. However, the new toolbar mentioned here disappeared! I had gotten pretty reliant on being able to open a new tab or go forward with a single tap. Anyone know if there's a way for me to get it back?

At Mozilla, we consider security to be a paramount aspect of the web. This is why not only does Firefox have a long running bug bounty program but also mature release management and security engineering practices. These practices combined with well-trained and talented Firefox teams are also the reason why we respond to security bugs as quickly as we do. This week at the security hacking competition pwn2own, security researchers demonstrated two new content-process exploits against Firefox. Neither of the attacks managed to break out of our sandbox, which is required to gain control over the user’s system.

Thanks everyone for your active participation here. We knew this would have a lot of interest and so we’ve waited to dive into the conversation because we see some themes emerging that I’ll respond to broadly here. The main concerns I’m noting are around the license agreements we declare, our use of data for AI, and our Acceptable Use Policy. Below are a few clarifications to each of these areas.

Maybe learn to take screenshots first? :P

Appears to be a mistake, but needs gorhill to appeal to make the reviewer aware of the mistake and to be able to fix it, which he doesn't feel like doing because he thinks it's unlikely to have been a mistake.

Update: now reversed, but gorhill removed it himself just to not have to deal with the review process and the possibility of human error anymore.

How do we improve JavaScript usage, teach progressive enhancement and reconcile the community?

Europe jumps on the train (english.elpais.com)

More and more people are using this form of travel to get around the continent, using high-speed routes and a network of night trains that continues to expand. We traveled from Madrid to Prague and witnessed how the future of European transportation is clean and fast

That person in the audience was really grinding my gears. Just let the folks you're talking to answer you; no need to keep going on your diatribe when it's based on a false assumption and waste the whole room's time.

This sounds exactly like the type of nontechnical nonsense they're complaining about: attacking a strawman ("they're trying to prevent people from refactoring C code and making them rewrite everything in the current fancy language") even after explicitly calling out that that was not going to happen ("and to reiterate, no one is trying force anyone else to learn Rust nor prevent refactorings of C code").

They've committed to not changing any displayed text ("strings"), so that translators have time to translate everything.

That only applies to personally-identifiable information.

At some point you reach critical mass, where the majority of the population uses the bicycle as at least one of their modes of transportation, after which improvements to bicycle infrastructure are more widely supported and thus more easily made - which then causes more people to use the bicycle, etc.

That's what happened in the Netherlands a couple of decades ago, and the infrastructure now is wonderful and still getting better.

If TypeScript still is a fad at this point, his definition of fad is far lengthier than mine is.

I'm fairly sure TypeScript will remain in popular use longer than whatever project you're working on 😅

It's a good thing we're no longer this narrow-minded, right? Right?

[-] Vincent@feddit.nl 66 points 2 years ago

I think "You do now." probably works better than "Now you have one!" It feels more threatening.
