Don’t tempt me… or else I’ll have to take you down with my SPAS-12!

Maybe I’m thinking of some companies who say they’ll double your warranty time if you register your warranty with them.

It’s fine for me on mobile, and I’m glad that the “I” has horizontal lines. So many scammers adopt fake usernames by using an “I” (capital “i”) instead of an “l” (lowercase “L”) and vice versa.

I wonder how it works. Maybe it has to do with the intentional varying of the sizes of holes in letters, and the lopsided lines so one can’t be confused as another.

They usually require you to register to use warranties, I think.

Different Lemmy denizen here: for a long time I was quite sucked into Soldat, though I haven’t touched it in a decade. Been thinking about it as of late, though…

Interesting, didn’t know that. Ironically, I’ve unintentionally followed this definition anyway because I think open-source is so incredible that I always describe FOSS as specifically FOSS, not “just” freeware.

In fact, I’ve pivoted so strongly to FOSS as of late that I haven’t even said the word “freeware” in… years… dang…

Hmm. Thanks, though I’m seeking universal /offline so if I get URLs in other platforms, I won’t have to turn to the browser to purge them of junk. Or maybe this could be converted into a standalone program…

It rarely ever does anything in my experience.

Anyway, I built a URL-cleaning script in AutoHotkey, but that’s Windows-only; I, too, am on the hunt for a Linux equivalent. Maybe this could be done in SikuliX or Espanso, via a Python script, but I suck at Python so far.

Ha, you wouldn’t want that attempt; with my programming skills, I’d only mess up the game!

macOS blocks tools like Espanso from viewing or modifying login input fields.

I wonder if SikuliX may be of interest to you, then. I just invoke KeePassXC’s built-in autotyper; it’s not too much more painful for me. Anyway, thanks for sharing! We certainly use it for very different things. Here’s a Reddit search URL generation script that I use sporadically:

  - trigger: '`rs'
    replace: '{{output}}'
    vars:
      - name: form
        type: form
        params:
          layout: |
            [[subdomain]]
            Subreddit (optional): [[subreddit]]
            Query:
            [[query]]
          fields:
            subdomain:
              type: choice
              values:
                - www
                - old
              default: old
      - name: output
        type: script
        params:
          args:
            - python
            - -c
            - |
              if '{{form.subreddit}}':
                print(f'https://{{form.subdomain}}.reddit.com/r/{{form.subreddit}}/search?q={{form.query}}&restrict_sr=on&include_over_18=on')
              else:
                print(f'https://{{form.subdomain}}.reddit.com/search?q={{form.query}}&include_over_18=on')

I wanna make a Lemmy equivalent of this, eventually…

Update: Okay, just did for my instance!

  - trigger: "`lemmy"
    propagate_case: true
    replace: "https://programming.dev/search?q={{lemmy.query}}&type={{lemmy.search}}&listingType=All&page=1&sort={{lemmy.timeframe}}"
    vars:
      - name: "lemmy"
        type: form
        params:
          layout: |
            Query: [[query]]
            Filter: [[search]]Time Frame: [[timeframe]]
          fields:
            query:
            search:
              type: list
              values:
                - All
                - Comments
                - Communities
                - Posts
                - Users
                - URL
              default: All
            timeframe:
              type: list
              values:
                - TopWeek
                - TopMonth
                - TopThreeMonths
                - TopSixMonths
                - TopNineMonths
                - TopYear
                - TopAll
              default: TopAll

Interesting. I wish Hangman would tell you what your missed word at the end was, though.

Little or no support for multiple passkeys + the spec allows sites to know what my storage tool is and decide if it’s allowed to sync it = nope.

Instead of client-side certificates, they decide they need to also handle literally every security level imaginable, which means sites can dictate what you can do = nooooope.

I’ve also gotten unexpected TOTP email calls from multiple orgs, yeah.

Did you put in a request for this? And sure, I’m always interested in seeing how others use it—especially to complex levels.

Whoa, yeah, F-Droid is perhaps the biggest FOSS Android app market, an alternative to the Play Store. I suggest navigating through it using Droid-ify. Enable visibility of all repositories in the top-right corner to be able to see more apps. Even Bitwarden has an official presence in F-Droid to accommodate Play Store avoiders, etc.

Oh. In that case, I just use Syncthing for now, since I only have 3-4 devices.

Its .YML formatting is really clunky. It feels like it takes up twice as much line space as .AHK (for example), which can do a lot of this kind of stuff in a single line. But I wanna go cross-platform and this is all I can find…

If you’re an Android user: scroll through F-Droid, download interesting apps, and then hunt for problems or try to come up with interesting, helpful features. For example, I could really use a live stopwatch widget in: https://f-droid.org/packages/com.best.deskclock/

Google Clock has it, but this app doesn’t for some reason.
