Avast blocks the site from being loaded.

I should be more clear - iCloud safari restore just says “loading…” for about 5 minutes then says “No bookmarks”

Thanks Apple

Somebody posted a git client written in awk here on hacker news today.

I used sled.com — Sam’s Little Editor - for years while a university student - and years later tracked down the author to pay him.

Bought every single boxed product that Borland put out: TurboC, TurboDebugger, TurboAssembly, TurboPascal, TurboC++

Bought 3 versions of OS/2 — back when I thought it might win over Windows. Oops

I started reading through the Narrowlink URL, but the frequency of typos was frustrating enough the I came right back to HackerNews to read the comments and synopsis of what the kerfuffle is about.

Thanks for the pointer to headscale - will take a look ;)

MAJOR two thumbs up on this one - the pibox is a very cool product, great for learning, easy to deploy on, and powerful enough for smaller tasks. the Kubesail folks are responsive (both in email and on their Discord server). Couldn't be happier!

Another option for open source aficionados might be https://www.pgedge.com - with their spock extension they also achieve multi-master replication. Looks very interesting!

Just to add context - I do have backups, but they're spread across a myriad of different hard drives. I had used Amazon Photos to consolidate, and benefit from the facial recognition to be able to quickly locate pictures of family members quickly.

I think that I'll give DigiKam another go, against the NAS loaded up.

Thanks for the comments!

Pop goes the photo cache, all my family photos mysteriously vanish into the depths of Amazon Photos

I think that as somebody's already commented - having people send email to both [email protected] as well as to [email protected] may be the best option here.

This represents an involuntary migration of customers who purchased a license to 1Password6 to REQUIRE them to upgrade to 1Passwords SaaS offering -- evidently through no fault of 1Password, since it's actually on Google for changing how the signing of the binaries changed.

I've added my email to the list of messages sent over to 1password.

DON'T BE RUDE in your email to them - I'm sure that they're frustrated with the change as well, but you also have to admit that they have a business to run.

a price break, and this unfortunate turn of events, might just be that final tipping point where I finally upgrade to get features that I don't want. :(

Can anybody reveal WHERE to buy the standalone / non-subscription version of 1Password? It seems like it's vanished off their site (it used to be that if you hunted for long enough, you could find it)
