Although they default everything to being on, you can turn off every privacy-centric feature in Windows. That depends on whether you believe they are lying about those settings actually doing what they say they do. On top of that, you can u

All I can say is that it seems as if you are measuring your own performance not as an absolute, but as relative to where someone else has arbitrarily placed the bar. The only thing you should ever be measuring yourself against is your young

I’m not very concerned about the semantics of the word censorship. The definition of a word in the dictionary doesn’t also define the boundaries of what behaviors are acceptable. My point is that unless something violates the first amendmen

XKCD 1357 is how old? And yet people continue to get it wrong. It’s not censorship unless the government itself is doing the censorship and making people face criminal consequences for disobeying. If a private entity is doing it, even at th

As long as they can get into the email, they can eventually get into everything else. If there are second factors in the way, I have backup codes printed out and stored in a safe location that they will be able to access. And this only matt

I’m taking the opportunity to reshape my digital life around the POSSE model. I’ve always considered that the right way to go about it, but I haven’t done the best job of actually doing things that way. https://indieweb.org/

This would be a lot better if it didn't make me start and end every entry with / Also, the timer is way too short for anything more than a word or two. The third one is a whole bunch of words. That's too much.

I stayed at one of my jobs for 8-10 years. There might be a company out there that appreciates it. There might be a company out there that rewards it. I haven't experienced either of those things. I was convinced by everyone else'

That depends. Some files are files that are part of the web site. They are put there by the developer(s) of the web site. Things like maybe the logo image in the header, or that cool rotating flaming skull in the footer. These files just go

There isn't ever going to be official support for it, that's for sure. As for unofficial support, it's going to take some nerds to put that together. It could be you! Go buy one and start working on it. Let us know how it goe

Because with virtual farming you don't have to shovel poop. You can also harvest an entire field with one mouse click. Pretty obvious why few people want to actually become farmers. Despite all the mechanization, it's still diffic
