This doesn't seem any more secure than broadcasting SHA256(phone number).

Is there a reason you can't run pre-commit in CI/CD? That seems to get around your version mismatch issues.

Can the HN post title be changed to the article title? The post title is inaccurate and misleading. No functionality was removed, just a fix added for Chromium not respecting `view-source` URLs in the URL blocklist.

The full title and subtitle of the article are:

> Microsoft engineer fixes enterprise-level Chromium bug students could exploit to cheat in online tests

> Ability to block 'view source' for specific URLs hasn't actually worked for years

The post title is a decent summary.

The post title can be interpreted as being done at a global level, instead of per enterprise instance by an admin.

I believe lockdown mode is available in the power menu by default in Android 12.

Related: Does anyone know of a PKI-on-WireGuard implementation? Specifically I'm looking for a system that lets clients join the WireGuard network by presenting a CA-signed certificate.

I mean, re-inventing IPsec is probably inevitable anyway.

Sadly I haven’t found anything. All there is are those curv25519 key pairs last i looked which is a real pain to manage at any scale, can’t be setup with a ttl etc. That’s probably main value proposition of products like Tailscale tbh

Blender Guru's YouTube channel has been active this past year.

This reminded me of scene, from a sci-fi book (Arthur C. Clarke, maybe), about a naked race on the moon. The racers filled their lungs with some sort of oxygenated liquid.

How does this compare to Commento?

You tell us. How do you think it compares to Commento?

It's lacking a comment example of edison and tesla arguing over dc/ac so for me it is subpar.

Commento doesn't work. I tried to integrate it with my site a while ago. Didn't work. Got some server error. So I tried to contact the guy behind it. He didn't respond.

It's dead, as far as I can tell.

I'm the guy behind it. Was this with commento.io or were you self-hosting? I'm truly sorry it didn't work out, but if you want to shoot me another email, I promise to respond this time.

So there's a whole bunch of improvements actively going on the behind-the-scenes (essentially a Commento v2) and I hope to announce things soon. I know support has been lackluster and I intend to turn that around too. It's certainly not dead :)

Great to hear! I tried using it at CommunityRule.info but ran into no-go issues, which I posted here: https://gitlab.com/commento/commento/-/issues/391

Also would love for it to be easier to match the CSS to the host site.

Was running it self-hosted on Cloudron but would be happy to try the paid, hosted product if it worked for me.

Commento.io

I actually sent you two emails.

I will send you another one.

Did you buy support from the author? As the author of an unrelated open source project, I receive an enormous amount of messages from people feeling entitled to receive support for free on the pretext it's open source. Answering and following up on those message could well be a full time job in itself except it doesn't pay for my bills

Thanks for that unjustified hostility.

I am sure the creator of Commento is happy you are here exacting vigilante justice against his customers for their imaginary entitlement.

I signed up for a free trial of his commento.io service, and immediately tried to integrate it with my static site.

When I ran into difficulties (bad responses from commento.io) I contacted support.

If I had got it working, I would have gladly paid him, and I would still be paying him.

I think I was within my rights to request a modicum of support during the free trial period for a paid product, and then to not pay for it when I did not receive a response.

In this context, I find your story about some open source project you have to be quite irrelevant.

I run commento on my blog right now, and it works fine for me.

You can even deploy it relatively painlessly. A little googling brought up an ansible playbook to set it up with minimal configuration: https://github.com/kathawala/commento-ansible-playbook

What is the pricing for the enterprise? It's hard to get excited about IF usage < X then $99/yr ELSE undefined as a pricing model.

I've heard that if something goes wrong and you need support... good luck. Even if you're a paying user.

A swapfile can be used in place of a swap partition.

At the cost of being practically forced to write your own initramfs, since few of the distro ones actually support this. Surprisingly how few projects use uswsusp anymore...
