Google Analytics gives you insights on what pages people visit, how long they spend, what kind of browsers and devices they use. That can give them data on what pages are important to customers and what screen sizes to support
I’d rather they self host this data vs use Google Analytics, but there are benefits.
They started charging money for Docker Desktop for companies and they have been adding pull limits on Docker Hub.
Personally, I’ve been enjoying cozy games like Dorfromantik, Rail Route, or even Transport Fever 2 (I just play with unlimited money and build great transit networks that I wish existed in my home country.)
The laptops are manufactured in Taiwan. There’s so much unpredictability in the tariffs so they’re delaying until it settles down. Tariffs are going to impact US companies and US residents.
You’re right. Unfortunately, open-source has proven time and time again to be unsustainable and burn maintainers out
That’s a good reason for people to take the money they would have spent buying a proprietary solution and instead donate that money to an open source project. For me it’s not always about the cost, but what I get out of it. I’d rather the money go to the community and better it.
Its only everything from other instances and communities that the current instance subscribes to. It doesn’t subscribe to the full pipe of everything.
What’s likely happening is people in aggregate generally subscribe to the most popular communities and those communities have the most upvoted posts.
I stopped using it to pay because then I’d have to set up a PIN, and then type in the PIN every time I want to use it
This shocked me when I went from my Galaxy Watch 3 to a Galaxy Watch 6. I used to only have to put a PIN when I wanted to pay, but now it’s anything on the watch?
Because of that, I also disabled the payment app.
but completely backwards in thinking that an undocumented bluetooth backdoor is worse than the worst vulnerability found since the invention of the internet
Right HeartBleed was way worse than this, not on the same level. I wasn’t claiming the opposite.
I was responding to the comment that appeared to suggest they were on the same level.
No way they’re on the same level. Heartbleed allowed for remote memory reads. This requires you to have access to change the firmware and just gives you some more APIs to control the WiFi system and possibly bypass firmware verification.
Back in early 2024, I got a survey asking me why I chose to cancel my prime membership and I gave them multiple reasons.
The companion post, I Went To SQL Injection Court, goes into detail about the court process and witness testimony. One of the interesting things is just how different computer people think about security vs lawyers. Somebody might say that having a schema would help a malicious actor a small amount, and a lawyer will jump on that to deny the request. The idea that the schema would help a malicious actor is the same as a map helping a bank robber. The vault security and security guards are the relevant factors for this, not the map.
I’ll keep this in mind the next time I’m an expert witness in a computer case (based on this, I hope I’m not.)
In this context, SKU refers to a variant of this product. That is the correct acronym as I understand
Which stops malicious usage, but doesn’t stop cases where web pages over use pushState as users move around instead of replaceState. I’ve seen maps that would add to the history every time a user moves around the map.
I’m on Wayland and KDE/Plasma. It worked on GNOME, but sadly not on Plasma.
How many users are using browsers that are old enough they don’t even support JS? It’s one thing to disable it for security/privacy (which the OP was talking about), because those users are probably more tech savy.
Do these old browsers not support DuckDuckGo?
I tried self hosting Pixelfed but gave up because it wouldn’t work. I’m used to Docker containers that are able to just start up by themselves, but the guide didn’t work for me. Maybe it’s time to try again.
Here’s a good reason why you should run an ad blocker. Block the Google Analytics script from loading entirely.
