I agree with the overall sentiment, however:

Lootboxes are at least a conscious action you must take. They definitely have the same problems as gambling (because that's what they are), but you can also choose not to engage with them. Ads however, are forced upon you, and do things that you cannot see (track you) and cannot turn off.

I mean fair enough but in the context of indies trying to "hack the algorithm", you're probably not even a target because you don't even look at the Steam store.

Thankfully you posted it online for everyone to see!

Please don't platform hateful imagery for internet points.

Yet another very common db0 W

When I was 11, an entire class of students and the biology professor were adamant that snakes do not have skeletons. I knew for a fact this was false because I had seen one at the museum.

Not on Google. They work on kagi and I assume they do on DDG/searx etc

It's not that amazing. To be a registrar, you have to pay $10k for the privilege, then pay for multiple audits that you must pass (if you fail them you do not get reimbursed), and then you get to profit like $2 per domain per year, and you have to maintain high availability server farms, pay for the electricity, pay for the sysadmins, pay for the audits every year etc

There's a reason Google stopped doing it after they got their .google tld

My current daily driver is a 13€ blue switches thing for AliExpress with 20€ DSA keycaps also from AliExpress. Both are fine.

Doctorow has never been a practical thinker. That's just not what he does.

Yes but you have to lobotomize the frogs first.

Either Seagate is doing it or all the retailers get them from the same source (which may not be Seagate) that is doing it or is contaminated by fulfillment pooling

Pretty much all monitoring solutions on the market track cert expiration nowadays. I get an alert when any of my certs have <5 days left

It's quite lucid. The new thing uses a fraction of compute compared to the old thing for the same results, so Nvidia cards for example are going to be in way less demand. That being said Nvidia stock was way too high surfing on the AI hype for the last like 2 years, and despite it plunging it's not even back to normal.

That can't possibly be legal in germany

Me too. My final reason to not go back to windows was that I realized I didn't actually really care for the games I played with restrictive anti cheat and was only playing them because they were popular.

Now I just play games that I consciously acknowledge I'm enjoying playing, and that has been great for mental health as well.

JS execution in a browser is hardly a problem.

Reminder that the US marines have the second largest air force on the planet, right after the US air force.

That virultotal report looks completely fine to me, including the behavior tab.

Regardless, imagine what would happen if the firefox pdf reader was vulnerable to a well-known attack (of course there probably exist 0 days but they wouldn't be burned on you). Any attacker could simply link you a PDF and you'd be infected simply for clicking the link? If this was true, people would stop using firefox because it would be insecure.

Modern switches are all jailbreak able through mod chips.
