So true.


I agree, there was lot of effort put into python documentation i believe.


Have you tried sidebery for ff?


I have now, thanks to you(r suggestion), but it doesn't show all the tabs/windows in one place. It only shows tabs of current window. Nor does it even show everything in a full new page. This add-on seems to be made only as a vertical tab bar as an alternative to the horizontal.

It has a quite impressive list of settings, but none of them enable the basic fundamental functionality I'm looking for.

I keep trying all the add-ons successively, although without success. I'd really appreciate a solution.


Niceee, im looking forward to start learning rails soon for private projects


Absolute true.If you are reading this, i want to say BIG thank you mr Raymond!


I have couple of uses cases for my actually :)

1. I use it as a wifi access point with hostapd. Where i live net is shared with many residents. This way my devices are isolated from others.

2. I portforward ssh from main wifi router to rpi, when im not at home i can ssh into it and use it at as poor's man vpn - handy at airports/pubs..

3. Its attached to tv via hdmi, i can watch youtube/twitch with it fairly ok (better then most "smart tvs" anyway with ff and ublock).

4. It serves as a "backup", i have usb 1tb hd and some scripts that mirror my github/gitlab repos, this is more as a precaution then as its "real" backup, but if i ever need it i could make it better with md raid i guess.

So, with all above, its a nice device to have for me at least, its not wasted 50-60e :)


Thinkpad t14, intel version, 48 gigs of ram, 1TB ssd, win10 with wsl2.. using it for ~6 months now, i switched from osx, no complaints so far


Coming from OS X, are there any key features you miss?


The retina screen and the fantastic touchpad.


"You need to enable JavaScript to run this app." Closed it instantly.


This might help, its a bit overkill maybe, but it will give you great knowledge about linux internals http://www.oldlinux.org/download/ECLK-5.0-WithCover.pdf


I have to say it, but asp.net and microsoft in general fits very well into my idea of zero-trust per se.

Jokes aside, i dont know that much how is it today, but years ago i had to run some asp.net apps in production, it was a nightmare...


There's good and bad apps, like most platforms, and it is comparable to PHP from that perspective. Having worked extensively in both, I'd say the general problem with PHP is it's really easy for a beginner to get started, and just easy to grow a small, simple app into a large, functional-but-awful monstrosity.

ASP.NET is really just a foundation layer for a whole bunch of different web frameworks including WebAPI, MVC, RazorPages, Blazor, WCF and WebForms. I'd blame WebForms in particular for a lot of the bad apps: it basically tries to make the web act like stateful Windows Forms apps (literally with controls that have "server-side events" and maintain state across several HTTP requests). As a result, lots of Windows Forms developers could build apps without actually understanding a lot of the complexity of the web and especially its security implications.


Perfectly put. Btw, ASPSecurityKit supports MVC/web API/ASP.NET Core/ServiceStack, but not web forms!

More info here: https://aspsecuritykit.net/docs/article/introduction/#suppor...


I wonder how many WebForms sites have been built new in the past decade?

Probably more than I'd think...


exactly ASP.Net is a much more mature framework right now and web forms seems to be the least preferred option to build apps


Not sure what was the particular issue you faced, but ASP.NET Core has come a long way – you can run .NET Core apps on Linux as well, not to mention the whole thing is open source under DotNet Foundation [0].

Is the source code for ASPSecurityKit available for review? Generally enterprises prefer that when it comes to using a security component in a critical production system.


Yes, under business/enterprise plan [0], you'll get access to the complete source code on our private GitHub repository.
