Thank you! I have a pair of these and they recently started beeping occasionally and switching noise canceling mode on their own. I was not looking forward to digging through search results on this.

What does OCI mean in this context? My best guess is Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, but that doesn't seem right...


I guess this refers to OCI image format from Open Container Initiative: https://opencontainers.org/

Here is Containerfile from the repo: https://github.com/ublue-os/bazzite/blob/main/Containerfile


It refers to the OCI image format. Think of git for your base operating system. The host system is immutable with full support for easy rollbacks. Stable installs can be pinned permanently for maximum stability. Software installs happen in user space, typically via flatpack and distrobox, so you can reach for any packages you want with minimal fuss. It’s pretty great.


I've done that too. I ended up just using a local webserver with some Python cgi scripts instead though. I found it more flexible and easier to remember how things worked that way.


I've found it really handy to just have a local Python webserver running on my workstation. Then my bookmarklets can just hit eg http://localhost:8000/cgi-bin/script.py to modify a local file or open up my notes for a certain Jira ticket or whatever else I can think of. There are security considerations with that approach though, since any random site you load can start sending requests to your local webserver.


I have bad news for you. This exact topic has been discussed on my local radio station (in a medium sized city) and loads of callers described working at a photo lab where there was a drawer full of copies of "noteworthy" photos.

I think it's apples and oranges though. With a photo lab the customer has deliberately handed over whatever images they want developed, whether the images are private or not. Tesla employees sharing images from cameras that some people may have plausibly not even known were there feels like much more of a violation.


If an employee at a hotel planted secret cameras and...

If an vacation rental landlord planted secret cameras and...

Bad news all around.


You can go to jail for having a surveillance system in your own home: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/navy-doctor-guilty-of-making-se...


Hidden surveillance of the unsuspecting in restrooms, bathrooms, and bedrooms -anywhere where people can expect to have privacy- should of course be illegal. Nannycams in living rooms and other "public" rooms in private homes probably should be legal for obvious reasons.


"I have bad news for you."

Yes, secret cameras can get the host in trouble, but poke around at airbnb listings and you'll see cases where everyone reports highly visible internal cameras.

I'm not saying its good.



Last time I compiled standard Lua I think it was only 300-400KB. It has all the cross platform file manipulation capabilities that C does. I was using TCC though, and it does seem to generate small (unoptimized) binaries.


Another one that I use from the address bar is "subl -n ." to open a temporary Sublime Text project. I imagine you could do something similar with VS Code.


I use a Mac, but I very frequently use `code .` to open vscode for the current directory.


That didn't work in windows because it tries to open the unix shell wrapper "code" instead of "code.cmd" for some reason.(Because I have wsl2 installed?) Type "code.cmd ." instead works.


Hmmmm, I use WSL2/Ubuntu and I always navigate to my folder in Terminal and type `code .` from there - works perfectly. Really love this integration.


URL parameters will be encrypted with HTTPS, so they're not plaintext over the wire. The problem is that requests are usually getting logged somewhere, so anyone with access to the logs can see your password.


I've only skimmed the code but it seems to me that the repo is an art piece just as much or more than it is a software project. The medium is code but that doesn't mean that it needs to adhere to professional standards anymore than someone's woodworking project needs to adhere to building codes.
