I'm confused about whether/how this is related to https://github.com/tteck/Proxmox/


> This website is not affiliated with the Proxmox VE Helper Scripts repository. This website is simply a redesign of the original website, with a focus on readability and security.

I'm assuming there's no malicious intent here, but tteck explicitly warns against these kinds of copycat sites.


How weird, tteck's site is great and what is this nonsense about security.


There’s drama between the two sites for sure.

And agreed the old site is much better than the new one.


I also use NginxProxyManager (8 hosts) and I'm not seeing any replies to your post that would explain why caddyserver or traefik provide any benefit over NPM.

Pertains to user scripts injected by MV3 extensions. Noticed this when my Tampermonkey extension updated today with this message:

Enabling developer mode will soon become mandatory for running userscripts via Tampermonkey.

Not a big deal for me, I have extension dev mode on all the time, but ymmv.

Some discussion here: https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/g/chromium-extensio...


It simply puts up friction for the non-technical user from adopting these user scripts. The stated goal of google is to prevent malware from extensions, but i suspect the real goal is of course, prevent the browser from being changed by the user in a way that google doesn't like.


They already make it hard enough that you need to get an extension to run extensions. That's so lame.



That link doesn't mention anything about it being a "bathroom spy camera".

It was sold as a nanny cam which is really a legitimate, if slightly distasteful, function. There is an image of it shown with towels on the hook, but it isn't stated or implied that it should be used to spy on people as they use the bathroom.

I'm a big fan of holding tech companies to the same standards as other industries, but not a big fan of holding them to unreasonably high standards.


It literally says spy cam in the product title.


It's obviously only for the legitimate usage by the James Bond type of spy.


As well as under the “Recommended uses for product”section it says, “ Pet, Spy”


Nanny cam is obviously a crappy attempt at covering the seller's ass and no judge should believe it.


Are nanny cams not a legitimate product?

If they are a legitimate product, how do we tell the legitimate product from this (in your words) "crappy attempt at covering the seller's ass?"

If they are a legitimate product and we can't reasonably tell the difference, why should Amazon have banned this product?


Nanny cams do not need to be disguised as not-a-camera.


Of course they do. There are countless legitimate uses for a hidden camera. The only thing a visible camera is good for is to ensure that nothing bad happens in front of that camera.

And even a towel bar or clothes hanger does not automatically mean bedroom or bathroom either.

Closets and towel bars can and do exist anywhere, like kitchens, laundry rooms, front and rear entrances, mud rooms, workshops, offices, stock rooms, really anywhere.

They are even legitimate IN bedrooms, if it's your own bedroom. It's wrong obviously to peeping-tom on a guest or tenant, but if I want to monitor my own bedroom when I'm not in it, I certainly can, and that means the product can't be automatically invalid to exist.


This is my main usage of ChatGPT :-)


Based on the turnout at the Northwest Chocolate Festival last month, I can confirm it has exploded :-)


lol breaking news



Weird I got stuck in recaptcha hell. 10+ attempts was never successful. On mobile


Pretty sure the owners of one of the archive sites is a dick and does that intentionally to people who use certain DNS servers


What a useless article, especially given the title. Here's all they have to say about the layout:

There’s some dispute over how and why Sholes and Glidden arrived at the QWERTY layout. Some historians have argued that it solved a jamming problem by spacing out the most common letters in English; others, particularly more recent historians, hold that it was designed specifically to help telegraphists avoid common errors when transcribing Morse code. Regardless, after around 30 test models, Sholes and Glidden settled on QWERTY—and changed the world.


I disagree. When I have a question, I am prepared for the answer to have some amount of ambiguity, especially when it comes to historical questions of the format "why is X", "how did X originate", etc. If I were trying to choose a descriptive name for an article, the question that it researches is a reasonable choice. Combined then, I am happy with the article's content given its title, and I am happy with the information it delivered to me without my having to do my own research. I don't feel that this is clickbait, nor do I feel qualified to assert that their conclusion is wrong.


Yes, and like many I've heard the anti-jamming explanation (contra the slow typists down one), so I actually find it interesting that this is a somewhat unsettled question.


>> There’s some dispute over how and why Sholes and Glidden arrived at the QWERTY layout.

Well at least it says who came up with it and when, so we know who to blame for it. None of the common suggestions make sense to me. It might be useful to examine the design of their first model now that we know who made it.


Starting with a piano keyboard where A-L were on the black notes and M-Z on the white below them in reverse order

Then the vowels were moved to the top row These letters still fit that pattern eyuio adfghjkl mnvxz

I and O were near 9 and 8 because they were also used as 1 and 0 to save keys, and people wanted to type 1870 etc easily.

A was swapped back to the middle row for ease of use, everything else was pretty much to avoid patents of other layouts

QWERTY stuck because typing classes were invented and they first used QWERTY
