This is very neat! However, it appears there is no way to have a "user" and an "admin" mode? As of right now, it looks like if anyone loads the page they can edit and move all the objects on the map?

Is there a way to lock it down?


How to Set Up Password Authentication with Apache2 You can protect a specific directory on your Apache web server by requiring users to log in with a username and password. This is useful for restricting access to internal tools like MapStruct, admin panels, private pages, or staging environments.

Prerequisites Apache2 is installed and running

You have terminal (SSH) access to the server

The directory you want to protect already exists (e.g., /var/www/html/map)



So there is no built in "public view"? How disappointing.


I will make this in next version.


There are actually a couple options out there - Alice, and SwitchLens! I've not used either of them, but both of them are apparently decent (but not world changing). I have thought about grabbing them, but I lack m4/3 lenses which would be perfect for this.

I have an Olympus E-M5 II with some nice m4/3 lenses, like the 12-40 F2.8. Once you add optics like that, the size difference between a dedicated camera and the Alice or SwitchLens is completely negligible.


wow, switchlens looks really cool. It would be amazing if there was a Canon EF-compatible mount and full frame sensor option as well. I suppose integrating other mounts and sensor sizes is straightforward once the platform is established.


What sort of nonsense is this? Wayland is the opposite of "on the way out". XOrg has been made the secondary option on a variety of distros for the last few years[1], and there are plans to fully depreciate it in the near-medium term[2].

It is far from a "farce" and your proof, if you read the discussions you provided are for corner cases and specific implementations that go against the explicit and specific designs of what the protocol should do.

You're purposefully misleading the discussion (which is fantastic - Godot being Wayland native is a huge success and benefit for the engine on Linux).

If window icons and drag and drop are corner cases "that go against the explicit and specific designs of what the protocol should do" the "specific designs of what the protocol should do" are clearly wrong.

Besides that, only RedHat and Collabora consultants are pushing for Wayland. People that actually use their computer (as in requiring e.g. drag and drop to work properly) stay on X11 and have done so for the last 16 years.


You're being a little disingenuous. Window Icons exist in Wayland, there's nothing stopping a compositor from adding an icon to their decorations. That proposal is about windows being able to set their own icon.

And drag and drop exists in Wayland. I can detach a tab from my browser and a new window appears and moves with the mouse. It seems that proposal was to replace an unstable protocol.


How is that a valid reason?

Standard compliance, especially in something like a website builder should be a top priority. If the builder doesn't work in major browsers, why there be any confidence that the sites it produces will?


when you say confidence, is it because the person who builds, can't test in other browsers inside builder?

this is something we are going to solve soon by having ability to open up the build url and keeping it in sync with the changes.


So, you are saying that there is no plan for it to work outside of Chrom(ium) browsers? It doesn't solve the problem of forcing someone to use a specific browser to use the platform.

It does not inspire confidence in an end product will work everywhere and be of high quality when the product to create it is buggy and limited.


This would also solve the problem with testing on various mobile devices by e.g. using browserstack and similar tools or even physical phones.


Are they not referring to the default price which is available to all?

Adding all those situational discounts is not a fair comparison since it requires a very specific set of circumstances to achieve it.


Yeah I was just referring to default prices. The only one I modified was the comparison to the Overkill system because the base Apple configuration does not have 32GB of RAM and 1TB SSD.


Ok, but that same spec is 1699 plus tax direct from Apple without a discount so the same as frameworks pre built 16 inch option that ships in Q4. If you compare their “build it yourself and bring your own OS” version without memory or storage shipping in late Q4 the base MBA 15 +70W charger w/o discount is still $100 cheaper, shipping now and very likely will outperform w double the battery life


Dark Forces 2, cog files! I haven't thought of any of this in years!

We're very similar, it was my introduction to game editing - I was never a fan of DOOM, Quake or Unreal/Tournament. But, I played around so much with JKEdit, and even continued with Jedi Outcast. It was by far the most fun I had with modding a game until Morrowind came out years later.

I really wish that modern games were as accessible, at least at a surface level - modding has fallen to the sidelines in recent years - I can't even think of the last game that came with an editor outside of a Bethesda game.


Sadly, that version is fairly outdated and has issues with newer Samsung devices. There has been a couple forks[1] of it that still work with newer devices and are based on newer releases.

I believe that Sisah2's fork on GitHub is the newest version that's stable/widely used and on version 0.48[1].

I haven't played through OpenMW in awhile, but I was able to do it on a Blackberry KeyONE from 2017 and it ran smooth and was quite fun!

The affect of computers on photography has grown dramatically in the last decade, its been very impressive seeing all the 'tricks' that we have incorporated into mobile phones to deal with their shortcomings.

But, more excitedly, we are seeing these advancements coming into the professional field - such as with Sony's new mirrorless A7RV which has a dedicated AI processor for autofocus.

All these additions help aid in composition, understanding what a scene needs and helping produce the most accurate image. As someone who still regularly shoots with film, it is amazing to go back and see just how many additions we take for granted when taking photos today compared to in the past.


I am on Fedora 36 and it doesn't run in Firefox either, however it does run in Chrome.
