• I want to create IMDB for Open source projects

  Automating also requires resources to keep the DB up to date. Just look at the state of https://openhub.net/ . - Source: Hacker News / 21 days ago

• I want to create IMDB for Open source projects

  Https://openhub.net/ already exists (but it looks quite dead). - Source: Hacker News / 21 days ago

• I want to create IMDB for Open source projects

  OpenHub (formerly Ohloh) tries, or tried, to do this. Seems like it’s not getting a lot of love lately but perhaps you can learn from it. https://openhub.net/ One useful feature is the ability to coalesce different identities. For example, I've released libraries on my personal accounts as well as through work. I’m not sure where you start with this or what the use case is. If it’s bragging rights, we have Github... - Source: Hacker News / 21 days ago

• Is geolocating a computer possible with obtaining a Proxy IP?

  I'm using SearXNG and tried Ahmia which only have .onion urls to find extra results in my searches. I just started using Tor for extra saftey, privacy benefits and discovered what a Proxy IP was upon visiting openhub.net on safest Tor settings. I didn't find much information about it so I'm asking here just what a proxy IP is. Source: over 1 year ago

• TIL: You can open man or info pages in Firefox by man:<page> or info:<page>

  Addendum from https://mastodon.social/@mofosyne/112385581085525369 Turns out that it's because KHelpCenter in some linux distros hooks to these uris. So typing this uri would autoopen these man entries in KHelpCenter. - Source: Hacker News / 2 days ago

• Systemd Rolling Out "run0" As sudo Alternative

  Good news! Run0 will use polkit[1], which uses JavaScript for its rules[2], so there's no limit on how complex your rules can get! On the other hand, maybe adding a JavaScript interpreter to Linux's trusted computing base isn't such good news...

• TfL's simple pop-up message led to a significant drop in paper ticket sales

  Apparently there are some stations which still have ticket gates, but I haven't seen any in the rather short time I've been in the Netherlands - they seem to be concentrated in metropolitan areas[1], and I've only been in the somewhat more rural[2] province of Limburg. As it happens, though, I have never actually used the OV-chipcard myself, as I always use an Interrail pass when travelling any further than... - Source: Hacker News / 8 days ago

• Systemd Wants to Expand to Include a Sudo Replacement

  Uh, depending on exactly how it's implemented, it could break a lot of things. If all you are using sudo on is a personal (i.e. Single user) laptop/desktop to install packages, this (along with other things like pkexec or doas) would seem to present no issues (and personally, from what I can see, I'd be happy to run `run0` on my personal systems!), but sudo does significantly more than that,... - Source: Hacker News / 7 days ago

• Ask HN: What do you think about a subscription based social media?

  Oh, TIL about https://mastodon.social/ (https://joinmastodon.org/) Looks like what you describe, doesn't it? > Social networking that's not for sale. - Source: Hacker News / 9 days ago
