More pleasant, but also only with a small fraction of the information alternativeto has.

My impression is that the rules make sense. For big companies. Sadly there are no limits whatsoever, so the same thing that’s easy for big companies, is essentially impossible for smaller ones. I’ve seen several smaller bands in the EU stop

Baseline newly available. For Germany that means 80% vs the usual 90% (I wonder how the Internet looks for those 10% who use ie, Firefox 20 and Chrome 1 or whatever), which, considering that it doesn't really degrade well, makes it pre

As others said, I also believe this post to be wrong. There is simply no evidence of the double account thing. But as we are all now talking about incorrect gmail mails… I paid 1.4€ or something on ebay back then for an invite and got a ver

Chatgpt makes teams feel like an optimized app. The azure website makes everything else feel like it's been optimized. Especially in the era of AI, performance has been thrown out of the window

It’s more than just Passkeys, Webauthn is super convenient with my YubiKeys, I even have it set up as 2FA on some selfhosted services.

Depends on the browser apparently? Only on Webkit is what it says, it’s not clear if the site doesn’t support FF, or if FF is secure.

And it clearly tells you something is run by sociopaths if they "care about your privacy and want to share your data with their 9999 closest friends, family, and partners".

I mean, that was always possible and many offered that. Wero offers the PayPal style integrated flow, QR code scanning from your banking app is slightly higher friction

My sister used it, and is currently requesting documents, but it looks like my grandad (over 2 decades dead) might not just have been in the NSDAP, but instead a member of the SS, and either they hid this from my mother and her siblings, or

Same for the kindles, but the buttons used to be much better. I'll probably buy a used (they are discontinued) oasis some day just to get buttons.

Not just for children, many "narrative style" TTRPGs encourage exactly stuff like this. If the item is not majorly important (a sausage), then you can just assume you have it on you (though a GM might want you to do a short explan

The paragraph following that explains what I mean. It’s technically not always all on Friday, as Japan doesn’t join in, and smaller labels or non-labels sometimes also pick others days, but the bulk of releases happens every Friday. For tom

A lot of old stuff was also encoded way worse than one might think from the alleged bitrate. A while ago I went through a ton of old files, and everything that sounded shitty (or, far more commonly, stuff I downloaded but didn’t care about)

I loved OiNK (and had the t-shirt), but neither What.cd nor waffles ever were a proper replacement for me. What got me that feeling of discovery again, decades later, and even surpassed it, was doing release Fridays and just listening. I mo

But bandcamp is only 128 kbit MP3 for free streaming, now that’s not a mystery, but probably also not worse than whatever YT offers.

That is what keeps confusing me when people hype wero. It essentially (I think some limited trials?) doesn't exist for B2C, and sending money to friends is a very minor use case. So once it has really broad support and can be used as m

No, please do keep using them if you use any requiring puzzles (like hCaptcha) at all. It’s the easiest captcha to solve automatically, with many extensions available.

I plan to eventually get there, just need to find the time. It’s a lot of code, and a lot of it is not set up for testability.

I work on a codebase from the early 2000s, a lot of it using webforms, a long abandoned .NET technology. A rewrite preserving all behavior and making no observable changes whatsoever would be amazing. But it’s also tested exactly as well as

Personally, I like the elastic (and similar) license… as long as, as you did, it’s chosen upfront. Being open source as a marketing strategy and later switching to source available licenses is what I find highly [0] problematic. [0]: With a

Still looking fondly back to when I was studying back in ~2006, and my C program on some (I think?) ATMega device (probably not the latest version of the compiler? I really can’t remember the details anymore) device didn’t work the way I th
