[email protected]: Why use catch-all email domains over email aliases? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 hours ago

Same experience

Oh , that's cute this spammer thinks there must be an [email protected] etc

Only other downside I could think if is when my catch all cant be used to send a mail or reply.

So I do use them a lot for suppliers en services, but for registering initially and password reset. But I can't use it to contact support by mail.

Mostly I rely on forms or self service portals when I need it as a customer.

Or its just miniturisation in contexts without a separate phone (aka IoT)?

As a #2 person, when my level-of-current-knowledge hits a ceiling and I ask for technical advice in forums or lemmy or even social media, it often comes from a #1 person.

Assuming its specialized knowledge few other #2 have.

Half the time I get an answer (about what and how) AND background explanation (giving context and WHY).

But half the other time a #1 doesnt realize easy things for them are hard for me. When they are miles ahead their answer assumes I have a host of other skills already in place. But I dont know what I don't know so I dont ask for them.

But ... every answer from a helpfull stranger is appreciated. Just bridging knowledge is hard.

Is "choosing which files and folders" an upfront configuration thing, or does it happen "on the fly" when opening a file?

It's a type of integration with local file handling:

  • you see every folder and file in explorer / finder.
  • they are just filenames but without the data
  • they act normal and can be copy pasted renamed etc
  • the moment a file is opened the first time, the data gets synced locally.

I use it to connect to rather large folders (bigger then my SSD) because it only takes up space of the files in use.

I deleted my comments seeing the ending side note about NC.

Does the MacOS NC app do files-on-demand?

Firefox DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials Extension NOT injecting CSS for Google Ads (addons.mozilla.org)
submitted 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

My questions are:

  • Does the DuckDuckGo Firefox extension "Privacy Essentials" add a local css file to every visited site?
  • Can others reproduce this?
  • Is this harmfull or not?

Background:

I have a simple static one page site with just one html and css file. It's completely tracker free. Debugging it a bit with developer mode (F12) on I discovered a second css file. This file isnt on my webserver but added local. To pinpoint what caused this I removed every add-on / extension in my browser one by one, reloading and checking my website every time. Took me a while because didnt expect this one causing it.

To reproduce:

  • Install the extension from the link.
  • Open a random site
  • Check in developer mode the tab Style editor.
  • Scroll and look for a file named %3Ais(%5Bid*%3D'google_ads_iframe'%5D%.css or something like that.
  • Remove the extension and refresh.
  • Check if the file disappears.

Content of the css file: :is([id*='google_ads_iframe'], [id*='taboola-'], .taboolaHeight, .taboola-placeholder, #credential_picker_container, #credentials-picker-container, #credential_picker_iframe, [id*='google-one-tap-iframe'], #google-one-tap-popup-container, .google-one-tap-modal-div, #amp_floatingAdDiv, #ez-content-blocker-container) { display:none!important; min-height:0!important; height:0!important; }

/run/user/1000: What to do with it? (lemmy.ml)
submitted 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

My main question is about /run/user/1000:

  • Should I avoid touching it?
  • Could I delete it?
  • Is there something wrong with it?

Background: I'm fairly new to Linux and just getting used to it.

I use fsearch to quickly find files (because my filenaming convention helps me to get nearly everything in mere seconds). Yesterday I decided to let it index from root and lower instead of just my home folder.

Then I got a lot of duplicate files. For example in subfolders relating to my mp3 player I even discovered my whole NextCloud 'drive' is there again: /run/user/1000/doc/by-app/org.strawberrymusicplayer.strawberry/51b78f5c/N

Searching: Looking for answers I read these, but couldnt make sense of it.

Puzzled:

  • Is this folder some RAM drive so my disk doesnt show anything strange? Because this folder doesnt even show up at the root level.
  • Are these even real? Because the size of it (aprox 370 GB) is even bigger then my disksize (screenshot).

Any tips about course of (in)action appreciated.

Although the headline focusses on a obvious category of media, it really can go wrong on a lot of other categories as well.
