studying webfs(4) and webcookies(4) and there is just something intensely fucking nice and liberating that every single one of my cookies is in /usr/$user/lib/webcookies and i can just scroll through them and see what's going on

just blow all these google trackers away just like that

“2000 me: Wow you still work on the web, that’s amazing. It must be so easy to publish really interesting web pages.

2020 me: Uhhhhh. [Very long pause.] Look, you can pay a low monthly fee and listen to any album anyone ever made.

’00: That must create some amazing opportunities for musicians!

’20: Well.”

Tooting an earlier reply on doing doing ssh/sshfs with password based authentication stored in secstore on #9front.

% ramfs -p; cd /tmp
% auth/secstore -g factotum
% echo 'key proto=pass service=ssh server=tcp!hostname!portnum user=foo !password=hi' >> factotum
% auth/secstore -p factotum
% read -m factotum > /mnt/factotum/ctl

With this, ssh (within vt) and sshfs are both working for me.

Now to figure out whether to run 9front hosted on Linux or the other way around. How’s VMX working these days? Can you video chat, screen share, etc?

@sirjofri looks pretty awesome 😀 I'll have to investigate further 👍🏻
