I’ve read all the answers. I still don’t get it. I find it WAY more complicated than copy/paste or a browser extension that does that for me. I hope it won’t become mandatory. (I h…

I’ll take it even further: I've stopped reading ANY kind of news. Yep, tech news too. And I've realized that I'm not missing anything important or anything that some colleague or f…

The personal computer is getting more and more expensive. Here we are, where it's getting harder and harder to get a computer to create your art but you can get a subscription to a…

First world problems

Oh I've missed that, thanks!

$120 max and I’m feeling generous. If it had an option to install a messenger of choice (Signal, Telegram, WhatsApp etc) then maybe $140-150. The whole "people want their data and …

Extremely funny. First the fact that Techcrunch asks for adblock disabling and secondly that Meta from all companies has the nerve to ask for subscriptions. All the data harvesting…

Damn!!! And I keep hardening my RSS app which was partly vibe coded and not exposed to the WAN while "professionals" give data away.

People who NEED to hide their notifications from iOS have this already disabled. They rest who "evaluate their threat models" can practice Spy-life-gymnastics by disabling it from …

I discovered something concerning about iCloud's Advanced Data Protection (ADP) that Apple doesn't disclose: deleted files are never actually removed from their servers. The Test: …

Never liked it. Terrible font rendering.

Every now and then a new article "Why you should go Linux". I get it, I like Linux too but every case is different. I want to use Linux but I have to use Digital Audio Workstation.…

Bluesky? Fediverse? Really?

It's unacceptable that Meta did something like this. But this doesn’t change the fact that she shouldn’t share anything personal on social media. Consider social media the new "str…

According to article, the whole authorization system is flawed. But we haven’t invent a new one and the one we’ve got never meant to be private, it is just a way to separate users …

The enshittification of Bluesky is just around the corner.

Don't use Bluesky (who uses Bluesky?) Problem solved.

I've stopped using it after the iRobot fiasco. I use Brave or Ungoogled Chromium. What do they do better? Pretty much everything.

Firefox holds about 2.25% of the global browser market share. There is absolutely no "criticality" at all. Google won and also they are the ones who pay for your favorite browser t…
