Pretty much the usual. Make sure to keep it updated. Don't install crappy plugins. Use safe passwords.

Not just a little heavy-handed. If that's what they did, they probably picked up users that just happened to use the service from one of the countries at some previous point in tim…

I liked the part about replacing the React code. Small is beautiful.

For SEPA transfers? Are you sure you're not mixing it up with SWIFT transfers?

I know, I had to fallback to Facebook for the link post!

True, but if you visit a site like http://sia.tech/ , in my opinion it gives the impression of a product ready to use today. Though if you look at their roadmap https://trello.com/…

I did leave FB for awhile. But I realized that there are groups on Facebook that I do find interesting. I do get the occasional event invite on FB, sometimes personal, sometimes ev…

There is a proposal in the EU that would prevent "unjustified geo-blocking" but I'm not holding my breath waiting for it to become law.

I'm surprised this wasn't upvoted higher. Having multiple servers without the ability to connect them in a secure network doesn't really make sense. Ofc you can DIY with VPNs but i…

There's something fishy with the adblock detection at forbes.com. I have no adblocker at all in Chrome, but I can't get pass the landing page that tells me to disable the adblocker…

Swiss, not Swedish. Switzerland - bankers, cuckoo clocks and chocolate Sweden - IKEA, meatballs and Spotify.

The two stories are similar in that both founders seem mostly interested in getting publicity for themselves. Neither project is a real attempt to create a new state.

When I was using dialup speed in the 90s, I certainly didn't have any gigabyte storage.

Lol, that was my initial thought too. Also, I obviously once had an account on vBulletin.
