There's also the thing where trade work is in the process of pricing itself out of what normal folks are willing to afford. Combined with Youtube tutorials and AI help that is getting better, it wouldn't surprise me if…
There's not only Mt. Everest. You can also take a stroll to your local hill. Or watch footage of someone else doing the climbing.
Good excuse to become a data hoarder, but bad timing giving the pricing situation.
The default state should be adult. Kid devices should have something special on setup that makes them kid devices. Or even better, don't have anything like that at all anywhere other than in front of the screen. I…
It won't be only facebook in the long run. Once this works for facebook more and more sites will be pressured to use age verification by law. Once that works well enough it will probably come for all sites, even ones…
I disagree. The proper thing is to not have this at all in any shape or form.
There's little use protesting free things. But you can run Linux without systemd entirely. Void is a pretty good experience, for example.
I still think it is a better idea to ban children from the Internet altogether, but without enforcement. Then the parents can decide and if things go south, the parents are to blame and not whoever runs a website.
I'm using an addon that just changes my unique fingerprint every ten minutes. Not sure if that helps or not.
I'd be totally fine to solve this problem by banning children from the internet altogether. Not that I'd enforce this or anything. Just so no one other than the parents can be liable when things go wrong. There's more…
Uses unholy amounts of CPU making my laptop's fans spin out of control. Editing is very slow, too. Not really a good impression of vim. I'm still going to recommend people to use vimtutor to get used to vim.
It's so weird to me how people don't like these kind of glasses. They are basically a dash cam for your entire life. Seems like a pretty valuable thing to have. The only thing I object to is the facebook association.
It is indeed an infrastructure problem, but the infrastructure has to come first.
The existing designs are fine, are they not? Even if they only spent a single Euro on all of this, which I doubt, it would still be a wasted Euro.
There's a small but important difference between surveillance in certain settings (like a prison) and surveillance around the clock. There's also a difference between keeping records forever and not keeping records at…
You know how animals in captivity behave differently from animals living in the wild and why this is judged to be a bad thing for the animals? Humans under surveillance also act differently from free humans and it's a…
It's a waste of resources to make something that exists worse.
You have to consider that people got paid coming up with this nonsense. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. That is before looking at the new designs and how horrible they all are.
Linux phone is already a thing that exists and is at a point where it can be used by tech illiterate people within the confines of what is possible normally. It's just that few people bother using it. But that number…
Currently my bank requires a device where I need to insert my card to get a one time six digit code based on a QR code the banking website serves me that the device scans. I'm not quite sure why they don't support…
I always disable everything Google that comes preinstalled other than maps, including the App store. You can download stuff that you can only get there through Aurora, but really most of what I use comes from F-Droid.…
I am fine with the "degraded" experience. I eventually gave up because I got served captcha loops instead of the actual site. All I need from an untrusted site is to read text which shouldn't require JavaScript.
There's a lot of rambling in this article. The way I see it, if you cannot sell it, you do not own it. And if you don't get to own it, there's no reason to buy it. Been thinking about whether hardware keys could solve…
I find it endearing that someone is keeping up the resistance against JavaScript. Used things like noscript myself since 2008 or so. Eventually gave up since nearly no website would work that way and served you captcha…
I won't even go there for search results, as new reddit is unusable to me. Too many clicks to get anywhere. It's quite surprising that so many people seem to have no issue with it.
