Pas peu fier

Donc depuis presque deux ans les enfants ont une machine à eux. Elle tourne sous Linux et je peux donc en prendre la main à distance. Cela m'évite de crier quand ils décident d'ignorer mes demandes et restent scotchés devant l'écran. Les deux ont les droits complets sur la commande `sudo`.

Afin d'éviter des questions, sur le chemin de l'école, comme 'Papa, pourquoi la Terre est plate'. J'ai malheureusement dû censurer leur accès internet et bloquer un certain nombre de sites web.  Dont youtube. Je ne me suis pas pris plus la tête que ça j'avais mis dans le /etc/hosts de la machine :

 lhirlimann@enfants:~$ cat /etc/hosts
# Loopback entries; do not change.
# For historical reasons, localhost precedes localhost.localdomain:
127.0.0.1   localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4
::1         localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6
# See hosts(5) for proper format and other examples:
# 192.168.1.10 foo.example.org foo
# 192.168.1.13 bar.example.org bar
#0.0.0.0 youtube.com youtubekids.com #www.youtube.com www.youtubekids.coma music.youtube.com music.youtube.com
0.0.0.0 www.tiktok.com
#0.0.0.0 www.crazygames.fr

Je pouvais ainsi à coup de commentaire leur faire plaisir et leur donner ou non du temps de consommation de vidéos.

 

Il y a de cela entre six mois et un an que le grand avait décidé de comprendre pour contourner. La première fois, il avait demandé à ChatGPT de regarder des videos, youtube, mais cela ne contournait pas. Hier, il a réessayé GTP mais l'a envoyé paitre en lui disant qu'il n'allait pas l'aider à contourner la censure. Il ne s'est pas dégonflé, et a demandé de l'aide a gemini pour des motifs éducatifs.

Je l'ai entendu demander si on avait la commande nslookup - ce à quoi j'ai répondu qu'il regardait dans la bonne direction. Ensuite a-t-on nano ? J'ai répondu, je ne sais pas mais cela s'installe. Aujourd'hui  /etc/hosts ressemble à : 

lhirlimann@enfants:~$ cat /etc/hosts
ço# Loopback entries; do not change.
# For historical reasons, localhost precedes localhost.localdomain:
127.0.0.1   localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4
::1         localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6
# See hosts(5) for proper format and other examples:
# 192.168.1.10 foo.example.org foo
# 192.168.1.13 bar.example.org bar
0.0.0.0 #youtube.com youtubekids.com #www.youtube.com www.youtubekids.coma music.youtube.com music.youtube.com
0.0.0.0 www.tiktok.com
#0.0.0.0 www.crazygames.fr

Et ils ont accès à Youtube. Je suis content qu'il ait trouvé comment faire, mon petit plan de faire de mes enfants des personnes qui comprennent le fonctionnement des ordinateurs, avancent un peu.

Firefox OS's story from a mozilla insider not working on the project

  I clearly remember, but can't date it. I was working for Mozilla messaging at the time ( momo ), being the QA lead for Thunderbird. It was at the end of one of the Mozilla All-hands, maybe in 2011 or 2012. At one of the ending keynotes, we were introduced to Boot 2 Gecko. A hack that would let US - Mozilla own the platform to run a mobile browser on. At the time, the iPhone was going strong and Google was trying to catch up with Android. MeeGo had been in development at Nokia for a while but was going nowhere even when Intel tried to help. Blackberry was slowly starting to die. In the Silicon Valley everything was about mobile, mobile, mobile and the emerging South Easter Asian market, where people would skip computers and use smartphones to join the internet revolution. We were struggling with Chrome and the massive investment by Google to take market share. Our Firefox port on Android was having loads of issues. We were denied by Apple's policies to be present on iPhones....

I have organized a few in the past using tools like biglumber (website is gone, if someone know of a replacement or where the source code of site is, I might end up running one again) and others tools . I've also run once the KSP at FOSDEM and helped running it a few other times.    === Details below === When, Where   We'll meet in front of the infodesk stand in building K around 12:00 Sunday Feb 4th 2024.

Are mozilla's fork any good?

To answer that question, we first need to understand how complex, writing or maintaining a web browser is.  A "modern" web browser is : a network stack, and html+[1] parser,  and image+[2] decoder, a javascript[3] interpreter compiler, a User's interface, integration with the underlying OS[4], And all the other things I'm currently forgetting.   Of course, all the above point are interacting with one another in different ways. In order for "the web" to work, standards are developed and then implemented in the different browsers, rendering engines. In order to "make" the browser, you need engineers to write and maintain the code, which is probably around 30 Million lines of code[5] for Firefox. Once the code is written, it needs to be compiled [6] and tested [6]. This requires machines that run the operating system the browser ships to (As of this day, mozilla officially ships on Linux, Microslop Windows and MacOS X - community builds for *BSD do ex...
