I still use IRC. It’s great.

Would you/she be willing to share a high rez version with me so I can turn it into a 3D relief for my laundry room?
- Comment on Why? 1 week ago:
Exactly. My Aliexpress specials have lasted forever. Buying a “brand” is dumb.

I hear this a lot, but it doesn’t seem true anymore. Every country I go to in Europe, tipping culture is creeping in and more expected in small amounts.

This seems like a bad behavior, I wonder why. The whole point of code blocks is to not wrap.

For a second I thought loss.

Uhh, why is Voyager wrapping code blocks?

Theory: As the factory line fills the bags, the nuts that fall out of the shells go through a grate to another line. Those are used to fill bags of deshelled pistachios.

One add-on: a Bar is a formal music term: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bar_(music)
Spitting bars is aligning the 4 sentence count of the lyric to the beat. So, oddly, if you salivate while rapping, “spitting bars” becomes a pretty literal activity.

- Comment on Those moutains are so quaint 2 months ago:
Hadn’t noticed that. Perhaps it’s because it’s the whole island?
- Comment on Those moutains are so quaint 2 months ago:
The north east mountains are beautiful, old, wilderness. So crazy in places you can’t even predict the weather. And if you’re bragging about size, maybe try remembering the US is not the world.
- Comment on Those moutains are so quaint 2 months ago:
And prominence of many is still impressive. And there’s Mount Washington, where it’s so crazy you can’t predict the weather 15 minutes out.

At my rate, probably about a year or so older.
- Comment on "Digital Signatures" just ask you to type your name into a box now. Am I right in thinking this almost-completely defeats the purpose of a signature? 2 months ago:
I claimed no such thing. That is not a digital signature
But that’s what OP is describing with the “”'s, so I assumed you were responding to the question, which they may have as well.
The functionality uses a separate PIN from that which you use to verify your identity in the context of a website you are visiting.
Interesting, I hadn’t realized Finland added a separate cert from the ZKP ( suomi.fi/…/dc540ff4-0030-46b2-add0-9f7ceb2a41c8), new info gleaned.
Though this may still be “slightly” off. Seems the finish ID is a standard Zero Knowledge Proof (ZKP) plus a pin activated signature (Citizen) certificate.
This should mean you can identify yourself, or that you are over 18 without revealing your full identity) without the PIN, as that operates separately from the signing certificate which can be activated independently. The PIN would be used for signatures or encrypting things. Very cool.

Sorry that’s not right. You can see my other comment about the ESIGN Act here: lemmy.world/comment/25214883
Note: it also points out how the top response is just… well, wrong.
- Comment on "Digital Signatures" just ask you to type your name into a box now. Am I right in thinking this almost-completely defeats the purpose of a signature? 2 months ago:
What? No it’s not. This whole comment is wrong, sorry.
When a website has you type a name as a signature it’s a legal representation of that signature. There’s nothing cryptographic at all about it. Wjere would you even store the key? I’ve made ways to use Webauthn keys to do this, but no signatory uses these methods.
And that’s not how ZKPs in government IDs work, either. You never sign with them, you only verify.
Ref: My job is cryptographic signature protocols, and I have a draft at IETF for one of them.

Sure he has. He watches then for a couple of hours every week and plays with them sometimes when dinner is being cooked.
