The Epic Privacy Browser for Windows has this extension built-in. Other platform versions will be getting it soon.

I really really wish LetsEncrypt would support 1 year long certificates. Round Robin DNS isn't really supported "easily" so for those sites & others, manually replacing certs every…

Ethereum has a value equal to roughly GM, Ford and Toyota combined. Probably as much as AWS despite the fact that no large company I know of runs their company on Ethereum. The lar…

Solana with its proof of history and performance sounds extremely cool. The performance relative to network size also looks really good. The general idea strikes me as a great insi…

I care about true privacy and transparency...so I use the Epic Privacy Browser and their ad-free and transparent EpicSearch.in. The claim in the blog post and by DuckDuckGo "They d…

Ah great, this has controls (pause!) :-).

Sorry...I just found it at the left side by the taxi. Fantastic idea, UI & song selection...working great :-). Thank you!!

Pause or Stop button?

Sadly it's very common to hear from many reasonably serious potential acquirers before something is consummated. 10 is not unusual I think. It's best to always focus on your busine…

It's not so much the difficulty, though yes it is hard, but it's generally extremely difficult to raise capital as a late entrant into an established industry. Unless there's somet…

Yes, you're basically right...but the problem isn't building your own search engine, it's in getting search ads privately as well as just being transparent and honest about how you…

If you're looking for a book that's both easy and stimulating to read, but that discusses a lot of mathematics in reasonable detail, I highly recommend the novelist David Foster Wa…

This is untested to my knowledge, but I feel like the best prevention for suicide is mentorship...that every teen has someone they're attached to.

Great read! "...an early genius of military engineering, Gabriele Tadini." But more than 1500 years before him there were others such as Archimedes and Caesar. I wonder if Tadini w…
