Wow, even Smyte's website was gutted. Bold move, to say the least.

>If you primarily work with Mac OS, Safari makes some sense, otherwise it makes no sense. Why do I never hear that complaint? Edge being multiplatform was part of that post, so what the commenter said makes sense. There are better option

I agree it is nonsensical, but I'd rather it stay as it used to be. Through the usual meme grapevine I saw a tumblr post on reddit about this. Being gender neutral/genderless in this case is also actively ignoring Spanish linguist

Yes, Ghostery was bought out. Regardless of what they say I wouldn't trust the current model. I currently use Privacy Badger instead.

To call Musk an extreme optimist in these cases has become a big understatement these days. He's a visionary at the cost of jumping the gun all the time. It's like he's so desperate to achieve his visions that he mentally liv

As a South African, this is certainly something I'd root for. However, I think these days bureaucracy and societal factors also need to be accounted for in the feasibility equation. In that regard, renewable energy for SA is still quit

Keep in mind Ghostery was bought out by an ad agency. Use alternatives like Privacy Badger (or others, I'm not too clued up on the main players in that plugin space right now).

Ha, the entire team at my previous job were using NUCs. Nifty little buggers. In the summer it would heat up quite a lot (not yet to the point of damage I suppose) and I couldn't even turn it off without burning myself if the PC froze.

Doing a small self-hosted Nextcloud to sync my KeePassXC database across devices. cPanel + Softaculous made it a breeze and the syncing works fine. Considering expanding my use of Nextcloud apps on my phone but haven't found many good

In relation to another comment in the thread about who exactly GDPR covers (seemingly anyone in Europe right now), what about EU citizens not currently in the EU? I made my FB account when I was a teen in Greece, but now reside elsewhere.

Everyone who saw the video has said it's the fault of camera for seeming so dark (since even the street lights have almost no effect anywhere), and regardless of that AVs work with lidar and such. Where is the telemetry and analysis? I
