I disagree and think it depends on where you live

Some tech-related things I personally use instead of their american counterparts in c/buyeuropean@feddit.uk

Ohh cool I didn't know that. I'll take a look myself and test them some more. I've recently been using Duckduckgo again since abandoning Kagi

Some of these products would not exist without their American counterpart, which directly fuel their existance.

Librewolf is just a hardened version of Firefox. It would not exist without the Firefox team continuing to develop Firefox and to fix its security issues.

Ecosia primarely uses Bing and Startpage uses Google for search results. Both would not exist without the search engines backing them.

I'm not saying these are bad products and I don't mean to criticiseze. I'm actually a librewolf user myself. I just think it is important to point out that the European label might be deceiving in this instance and might mislead people into thinking they are using something different than they actually are.

It might also not be so important. Perhaps focusing our energy on good open source projects and NGO-backed initiatives is desirable regardless of their origin?

idk food for thought

What's the translation for "Buy European" in your language? in c/buyeuropean@feddit.uk
[–] exposable_preview@slrpnk.net 3 points 3 months ago

The romanian one kinda works, but is too formal, impersonal and also sounds someehat strange imho.

I think "Cumpără din Europa", or "Cumpără european" are both better. These use the second person singular, which is more personal and friendly. The former would literally translate to "Buy from Europe", which I think sounds a lot closer to how people actually use the language. The latter also works and is very much understandable, but to me at least, it also sounds a bit off.

Snake plant help (infosec.pub)
 

Hi there!

I need some help with this individual. It's a snake plant (i don't know the exact species). I've had it for a few years, and it's been doing quite well.

However, it grows really sporadically and it started taking up quite a bit of space. It has some strange growth, due to a bulb leaning to one side at some point. I also can't sustain the weight of some of its own leaves so they hang laterally.

I don't know how it can be helped / remodelled. Maybe a bigger pot could help, idk? I've also though of removing some leaves, but i'm afraid of damaging it.

Suggestions are very welcome.

Can Ghidra do inline strings? (slrpnk.net)

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but here we go.

I run into scenarios like these quite often. There is some kind of stack based array (or character string in this case) which is initialized on declaration. Ghidra displays it like this in the decompilation window, which is, declaration first and initialization one element at a time. Is there a way to make Ghidra display a stack string like this on a single line? Something like:

wchar16 buf[22] = L"69F2a+18d346b/SQ5c65e";

This would be a lot nicer on the eyes.
