I have a floccus sync with NextCloud bookmarks but for long time archival and accessibility I use FireShot for pdf and png saving to local copy.

Your bookmark + pdf + image + html intrigued me but I is it possible to export in bulk these files for local archive and backup?

Got a work related variant, a 3 letter domain we really liked was registered by a person asking a couple of hundred bucks or so. Which really was a good deal and we were more then happy to pay.

Our IT department advised guiding the transfer themselves. Instead our marketing department went ahead anyway and just agreed to "you end your subscription and after that we register it" ... instead of using transfer codes.

In the minutes between, a bulk claimer snatched it away.

Wasn't sarcastic at all! I do think the visual coding style can be an inspiration for cli also.

Let's say ... like a ScratchJr but for terminal commands ...

I do see valid use cases for pc in a test-exam-facility (meaning 80 pc without personal login) or pc in kiosk mode.

I came across something like that in a proprietary "epub" format. Not because of formatting/styling but because of crossreferencing and footnotes it stored every word in a database with its position.

Yep, decrypt ... export elsewhere to csv txt json ... encrypt

While true I don't get why this is long known and also news at the same time.

For Signal Backup tools for example this isn't a bug but a feature and the only way to make long term archival of chats possible.

Same experience

Oh , that's cute this spammer thinks there must be an admin@mydomain.com 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)?

"Supersims are popping up in shared rental scooters, fleet tracking devices, and digital billboards."

I donate regurlay to:

• OSMand
• Signal
• Bitwarden

Which happen to be myself. And the datacenter facility owner.

How would that be leaking, home hosters aside?

Yep, that would be the ip adres of my €5 a month VPS somewhere in an german datacenter.

Ouch ... I hope I smell them from a mile away ... and change course.

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?
