Fuck's sake, might as well be a warrant canary.

And they're peddling the myth of anonymous data. Great.

Are any of those independent browser projects functional yet?

Konqueror, which is Webkit, is still actively developed, though less feature-rich than more popular browsers.

If you consider cutting off hair an amputation, sure!

"the exact center of the Big Bang" is not a phrase that makes sense.

If you can't tell which person in your group is having a stroke right now, it's probably you.

Ukraine is the fire.

America is currently trying to put out the fire by dumping more fuel Russia on it.

Hmm, Trump might actually attempt it, but I think Russia in general is far more likely to sell to Chinese interests and accept a long-term Chinese presence.

I think the inevitable outcome will be China buying up a lot of Russia's economy in the form of property, businesses, and access to natural resources.

Ah yes, I too require everyone else to only express views that agree with my own or else keep silent. Of course, I am the only person allowed to have nuanced opinions.

Does Proton really support Trump? A deeper analysis

One thing to note is that while on Reddit, people are alleging that Proton is a company run by a fascist, pro-MAGA, pro-dictatorship CEO, users on X are accusing Andy and the company of being anti-MAGA/anti-Trump.

So, in the face of all the evidence I’ve found, to compare Andy to a tech oligarch like Zuck and Elon, who are now bootlicking on display for all to see, is not supported by the evidence.

[...]

However, being disillusioned with one party on one issue doesn’t mean that all of a sudden Andy Yen changed all of his stances and that now he’s actually pro-Republican or pro-MAGA. All of the evidence gathered suggests the exact opposite.

Considering how many users here have expressed similar disillusionment with the current Democratic party, it seems a bit hypocritical to judge Andy Yen for having the same feelings (or expressing them on occasion).

This whole "Proton supports MAGA" thing is another example of internet mob-think where everybody has an opinion informed by no facts at all, actively ignores or dismisses the larger context in order to protect that fragile opinion from reality, and most haven't even looked at the original statements that sparked the controversy.

I recommend getting familiar with SMART and understanding what the various attributes mean and how they affect a drive's performance and reliability. You may need to install smartmontools to interact with SMART, though some Linux distributions include this by default.

Some problems reported by SMART are not a big deal at low rates (like Soft Read Errors) but enterprise organizations will replace them anyway. Sometimes drives are simply replaced at a certain number of Power-On Hours, regardless of condition. Some problems are survivable if they're static, like Uncorrectable Sector Count - every drive has some overhead of extra sectors for internal redundancy, so one bad sector isn't a big deal , but if the number is increasing over time then you have a problem and should replace the drive immediately.

Also keep in mind, hard drives are consumables. Mirroring and failovers are a must if your data is important. New drives fail too. There's nothing wrong with buying used if you're comfortable with drive's condition.

So... who wants to bet that the new version of Notepad is not constantly scraping anything you type into it and feeding it into the AI, regardless of whether you're paying for this feature or not?

Fall of Civilizations

A podcast about the collapse of civilizations throughout history.

Why do civilizations collapse? What happens afterwards? And what did it feel like to watch it happen?

The original podcast episodes have been set to high-quality video of the area being discussed and whatever remains of the civilization are possible to capture on video.

The discussion of what we know about these dead civilizations and what happened to them is really fascinating.

Or maybe an immortal woman with magical healing abilities.

The Century of the Self by Adam Curtis

The business and political worlds use psychological techniques to read, create and fulfill the desires of the public, and to make their products and speeches as pleasing as possible to consumers and voters. Curtis questions the intentions and origins of this relatively new approach to engaging the public.
