Any numbers on exactly how much safer the average user will be? How many scams are we stopping here? I don't know anybody outside of technical people who install apps outside the p…

Some sort of middle ground should have been found where the unpublished package is still accessible as an archive or something. I'd much rather get my package broken than get hacke…

Definitely wait at least a few months if you've not already. There are legal risks with these kinds of things and some orgs move slowly.

"Like the team that decided I need to pay $150 a year to sign software to put in the app store, or whatever jerk put RFID tags on the water filters in my fridge like a sort of drin…

> Google's latest concession makes the sideloading controversy a big nothingburger. It's really not. Try to realise that it's not meant to be Google's phone and they shouldn't be "…

I'd recommend making sure your site is in Marginala's index. E.g. here's how I confirm my site is in there: https://marginalia-search.com/site/nhobb.com?view=info And link to sites…

I agree with you but the whole thing makes me uncomfortable. We're definitely making it easier for these security conscious companies to do vendor lock in if we encourage passkey u…

Hey Omar! I met you briefly in Grenoble many years ago. I hope you're doing well. I only recently watched this series and found it very entertaining. But I never expected it to be …

I actually write down the secret for all my totp codes in a notebook as a backup

Yep I have been in one group for years then in the last month I start getting spam emails from comments on the group

We need another os in the market. A duopoly just isn't competitive enough. Too bad the cost of entry is so high.

Yeah if this goes ahead I'm going back to my feature phone

Okay so we just need another company to release a nice phone and release the device tree right?

That's awful. I bought a pixel because the ecosystem around alternative android roms was healthy. This seems to change that. Why can't I just get a general purpose computer in my p…

I was under the impression that selling anonymised data would also fall under this category. Either way we need more transparency here.

Dumb question but why /do/ browsers move quick? Surely we are nearing feature complete. Is it just the complexity of the task? I'm sure there are lots of awful bugs.

I just want to say thank you for mentioning qutebrowser. I'd never heard of it before and I'm now hooked.

What do you mean? Are they going to officially launch it or something? I'm running steam os on my desktop right now.

It's nice to chat to real people for 15 minutes sometimes? Such a short meeting shouldn't feel very disruptive.

I've written a bit of CUDA before. If I want to go pretty bare-bones, what's the equivalent setup for writing code for my AMD card?

I think this might be considered disposable by military prices. Missiles, torpedoes etc are very expensive

We still need to receive the mail somehow. It's analogous to the post of yesteryear. The issue seems to me that marketing loves to abuse dark patterns and whatnot to sign most peop…

Of course I understand that it's not my money. Weirdly hostile comment. I'm just expressing that the value wasn't quite there for myself. And these projects kept coming out so I wo…

Yeah like it's fine. I just felt the value wasn't quite there for me personally and I found a few too many projects coming out that didn't benefit me. So I cancelled. No harm done …

I cancelled my Kagi subscription because it's a little too expensive for me in the unlimited search tier. And I search too much for the limited search tier. I can't help but wonder…
