This is exactly how developers of malware want you to behave. Update without really thinking about it. I do wonder how long it will take before an attack is developed by submitting…

The manifesto refers to “working software”. It does not say anything about “okay quality”.

The app settings offer a way to set default browser to the system default (which is what I have selected), as well as a toggle to “Ask me every time” — I have this turned off and n…

I’m in the UK and use the Gmail app, I don’t ever see this sheet. Is this US-only? I don’t see the sheet for imgur.com either because, well, they’ve blocked access completely for U…

I thought the law said it’s illegal to post footage of people without their consent if it’s publicly accessible. Which means videos of some random on your driveway or some random i…

Yes, that demo. You can clearly see the resize pointer flashing briefly, but the user continues aiming right inside the window. I’m not sure why he’s not stopping when the resize p…

Indeed, just enough. And the correct resize pointer shows all along the rounded edge, so I agree, this doesn’t seem like the problem it’s made out to be.

I’m referring to the demo in the original article. The mouse pointer moves rather rapidly onto the inside of the window. You can just about see the resize pointer flashing as the u…

This is absolutely true. The demo in the original article seems quite deceptive in that respect. Nobody would attempt to resize a window by launching their cursor at the corner wit…

There are 2 in quick succession in Marple ([1] and [2]), very near the Marple Lock Flight ([3]). This happens to be at the very start of Macclesfield Canal. [1] https://maps.app.go…

Just installed it to see if it might be better than AdGuard on memory usage, and now I’m getting constant “Pssst! You forgot to apply some settings” notifications as soon as I leav…

The only part of the API that is free is the passwords API, which would not help for this use case. Every other endpoint requires a subscription. This is very far from “The API is …

Change the password for what account though? The dashboard doesn’t seem to list the actual website(s ) linked to the email/password breached, so how am I to know which password to …

The details about the “Stealer Logs” on the dashboard even state: > The websites the stealer logs were captured against are searchable via the HIBP dashboard. There is no way to us…

Interesting. I would say you’re definitely the minority here, and I would still argue that limiting content width does work better for most. When you say you sometimes enlarge the …

If a text-heavy website does not constrain the width of its content, what do you tend to resize the browser to? Does it depend on text size? Or other factors?

Interesting choice of example. I would probably have gone with the PayPal or eBay apps, which (on iOS at least) still refuse to let you select the text from the address you have to…

Is the biometrics step (fingerprint reader) on macOS much different from a ubikey? I imagine implementation may have some differences, but in practice it seems I can already protec…

The argument that cyclists (implied: all cyclists) ride at full speed on pavement at all times is akin to arguing that cars (implied: all cars) go over the speed limit at all times…

The data you present does not say that: > 35% des cyclistes tués, 63% des cyclistes blessés gravement le sont dans un accident sans autre véhicule impliqué. 35% of cyclist deaths, …

Why would a VPN provider do that?

> Are there still customers giving tips as "a reward for good service"? Sad if this is no longer the case. In the UK at least (and the rest of Europe too, as far as I can tell), th…
