Mullvad are the 'good VPN provider'. They make an effort to store as little customer info as possible, including getting rid of subscriptions to reduce payment information they hav…

These look like they might be the slides from SPJ's talk at Haskell eXchange this year. I'm hoping they'll upload a video soon, which'll probably be a lot more fun than slides. The…

The main advantage Flow has over Typescript is soundness. Neither language is sound, but Flow tries a bit harder, and so there are fewer cases where you write bugs that 'should' be…

Every Door and StreetComplete seem to do different things, with a bit of overlap. StreetComplete works by asking you for more details about certain things that are already on the m…

I use Dvorak for 'real' keyboard typing but I don't feel an advantage from having Dvorak on my phone. If anything, having common letters spread out, and not all on the home row, is…

If I've understood the linked post, the login panel doesn't have to behave or look different if someone gets the username and password right. You could still show everyone the 2FA …

Huh, interesting. Maybe it's changed, maybe I'm misremembering. In either case NewPipe has picture-in-picture playback and audio only playback. Not sure what else I'm missing from …

Vanced is pretty good. It seems like it's just the official YouTube app but with premium for free. Newpipe is another ad-free YouTube app. https://newpipe.net/ It's FOSS and doesn'…

Sorry to hear about that. I doubt it makes you feel any better, but isn't that an effective cut of 4.4%? As a starting point, original pay was 100% of original pay. A year later, t…

This doesn't seem to work with Firefox. A blue splash fills the whole screen and stays there until I move my cursor outside the window or right click.

Affiliate links seems like a type of advert or they at least share some of the arguments against implementing them on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Funding_Wik…

The prefers-color-scheme CSS media feature could be a way of doing this without requiring any additional action from the user. The spec is still a draft but it has decent browser s…
