These are the kind of reactions I get when I recommend Anubis to deal with bots at work, what alternatives are there? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

I don't think you understand the problem.

I will never put myself in a situation again where I have to explain that it’s not weird to anyone again, same for that URL.

To some people, anubis is weird, there is no changing that. It does the job, the mascot can be changed by paying, but the project itself is weird to some people. Such person is asking, is there an alternative. You cannot just say "push back that is not weird".

    I'd say more like coffee. If you drink it every day, you are addicted and legit cannot work without it. But it does keep you focused when in a crunch. As for LLMs, they does have their uses, but they do not produce quality software.

    dousing them with a mixture of hydrogen peroxide, acetic acid, salt, and acrylic paint

    Is there a civil engineer here who would know what degree of damage will this cause?

    Anyone running Sandstorm? (programming.dev)
     

    Is anyone here running Sandstorm? If yes, what's your experience?

    I really like the idea of "grains" where an instance of the app runs for each document/project/unit of data your app has. It does improve security a lot, because it is very similar as running root-less docker.

    I also like the unified auth and user management sandstorm provides.

    Is driller really this bad for dreadnoughts? (programming.dev)
     

    I've played driller with all possible weapons and when going on a haz 5 dreadnought mission, I figured cryo was the best main weapon.

    And it sucked. Real low damage output. I've tried to freeze it and then throw the axe, but it was not dealing much damage.

    Is it just me, or should we be picking 2 engies and 2 gunners for dreadnoughts?

    Flutter is kinda good (programming.dev)
     

    I don't have much to say, only that I expected flutter to be a bloated fragile abstraction on top of different native GUI APIs, but no.

    It's quite fast, relatively easy to develop and it just works.

    I'm working on a desktop app that needs a high-perf rust impl, and (for now) flutter looks like a much better choice than tauri.

    ELI5 why do people in USA need to register to vote? (programming.dev)
     

    I'd expect the state to have a list of all its citizens and their basic personal info (age) which could be used to determine their eligibility for voting. In my country, we get a "invitation" to the vote, with your voter station and info on how to change it.

    Instead, I'm seeing posts about USA's "voter rolls", which are sometimes purged, which prevents people from voting. Isn't this an attack on the voting system and democracy itself?

    So why doesn't USA have a list of voters? Are they stupid?
