Maybe they wouldn't care about the ads but the residential proxy is another story. I'm sure lots of problematic stuff goes through that and you take the risk of being associated wi…

Not to pile up on the negativity, but looking at the SDK, first reaction is it's fucking C++ ? Can't wait for my watch to crash in the middle of something. And second reaction, whe…

I feel like this whole discussion boils down to one question (as commonly when considering political issues) : do we want a framework that favors progress globally for everyone, or…

Latest venture of the ilk behind all that : device attestation for Linux (Amutable). Yes, they clearly have an agenda and are being quite successful at pushing it.

It's called cut and paste (2 actions), not "move" or otherwise. Being consistent with decades of software usage is more important that whatever you think is "broken" or not, becaus…

12k is obviously a large number of preventable deaths, especially, and it's a huge difference with diseases, when you consider that some of those deaths are people getting killed b…

This is part of a large movement to end personal computing as we know it, and give all control over our digital lives to the mega corporations. It is already impossible to use some…

Your two paragraphs are completely contradictory. I agree with the first one.

It definitely feels like there's a dedicated core of people insisting on removing choice from the Linux ecosystem. RedHat, Gnome, fredesktop.org ... they have an ideology and a str…

This article is using "fake" for click-bait purposes, implying some kind of scam, in fact it's just a filler RGB stick to make pretty lights inside your case, nothing nefarious abo…

"I'd like 32G but I can't afford 2x16G right now so I'll buy a single stick and keep a slot open for later when prices are better or I get more available money". Seems pretty easy …

I'm amazed by the lengths Americans will go to try to convince themselves they're the good guys. America never has and never will go to war to liberate a people from oppression and…

Interestingly the original author ported the code from the Mozilla C++ version which is licensed as "MPL 1.1 or LGPL" (it's a bit unclear as the readme says that but the license fi…

The future right now looks more like everything in remote datacenters, no autonomous capabilities and no control by the user. But I like yours better.

That's a non sequitur. Creating long-term professional politicians is not going to create legislators competent in the various domains they legislate on. It's going to create polit…

DNSSEC is encouraged ("SHOULD" wording) in the RFC draft : https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-acme-dns-pe...

I guess what they're saying is that, for example, a password of length 12 has about 71 bits of entropy if using an alphabet of 62 characters, and 76 bits with an alphabet of 82 cha…

> I was tempted to try it until I saw the curl | bash pipe, then no I don't quite get that argument. It's the same as the old download installer from random website, double click t…

This coating looks like it can selectively make parts of the satellite radiators or insulators, as to regulate temperature. But I don't think it can change the fundamental physics …

Some people just can't stop making other's lives more miserable, can they.

Everyday the world is becoming more polarized. Technology corporations gain ever more control over people's lives, telling people what they can do on their computers and phones, wh…

I don't use IPv6 because it solves a problem that I don't have and it provides functionality that I don't want. And also because I don't understand it very well. My points : - I do…

Ah, capitalism. It's only rainbows, children laughing and happiness. Well, if you're a potentially profitable customer, of course, otherwise you're left on the side of the road. An…

You'll also have to live without banking, government ID ... The "I don't need those services" rhetoric only goes so far.

Android has not been really open for a long time now. - Many APIs have been moved to Google Play Services (which is not open source), and many apps have come to rely on them. You c…
