Many of the details discussed (links, stats, etc.) may have changed in the years that followed.) Which mobile operating system spies on you the most? Android or iOS?

**Hi @hacktoberfest! 👋

Your page says that “YOU’VE BEEN AWARDED A SWAG PACK (OR A TREE PLANTED IN YOUR NAME, IF YOU’D PREFER) FOR YOUR PARTICIPATION.”, and gives a code and a link, but the link appears to only allow for a swag pack…

How/where can I choose the tree 🌳 option?**

wsl-vpnkit: Internet for WSL2 distros behind a VPN
I’m still alive. 👋 Today, at work, I discovered a nice little tool for WSL2. On my work laptop I need to use Cisco AnyConnect to connect to the corporate network. Unfortunately this blocks Internet access in Windows Subsystem for Linux VMs (at least in the Ubuntu VM, I tried to use for some Docker stuff). I tried a lot of different hacks and workarounds, but none worked. Until I found wsl-vpnkit. It just works. 😄 ⌘ Read more

@prologic@twtxt.net That looks nice. So that if you link the post in another app it will show the message

@prologic@twtxt.net I guess as long as jenny just links to the post.

@akoizumi@social.kyoko-project.wer.ee We were talking about having links on the yarn.social page for some guide on how to setup jenny + mutt

@prologic@twtxt.net There is also a link to the blog post on the yarn.social site about how to setup jenny with mutt.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de @prologic@twtxt.net When searching for a replacement I came across somebody telling, that nobody used it and it shouldn’t be needed anyways, so they removed it and put a half^Wfully-assed implementation in place. Can’t find it now. But I found this bug report that is linked in the addon’s readme and also an article by the same guy opening the bug report. I haven’t read any of them.

@prologic@twtxt.net No, haven’t seen them yet. Do you have a link?

“Common Table Expressions in SQL”
I’m currently working in a project that involves a lot of data processing and therefore databases. This means that we often come into contact with SQL at work and have to write an SQL query at least once a day. ⌘ Read more

web0?

@fastidious@arrakis.netbros.com the things Gemini has going for it are mutual TLS and lack of JavaScript. Which makes for a secure albeit boring experience (much like gopher). The fake markdown is a bit of a drag.

With Web3 the whole trust a 3rd party browser ext + high fees + env impact for compute and storage are serious no gos for me.. I have heard one too many horror stories about clicking the wrong link and some script draining your metamask wallet.
