It’s annoying but pretty clearly about differentiating the Pro model, at least at first. This has been Apple’s strategy at least since the XS/XR: the high end model gets a better camera and higher performance SoC to entice consumers wh

Browsers have the tools for companies to manage this. My workplace actually does restrict extensions to an annoyingly small allowlist. But I think it’s not on the radar for as many companies because the extension controls are moot if you ar

The specific development this post references is a proposed injunction [1] that Internet Archive and the publishers agreed on and sent to the judge. With certain exceptions (such as accessibility and fair use), IA would have to remove from

Part of the reason is that this is a macOS browser. macOS's window management is a joke. But I think I'd use the tab tiling on Linux too, I do a lot of work with tiled browser windows and it's great, but also sucks when you w

Try working in IT or software dev at a company nobody would confuse for a "tech company", preferably outside of California. The Windows monoculture and Apple hate is massive in my experience. (Not trying to say it's a bad thi

Fastmail by default uses @fastmail.com addresses for masked email, same as their cheapest plan, so when I used it there was never anything blocked except the occasional site that only accepts gmail addresses (yep, they exist). Personally I

Chrome doesn't have a TOTP authenticator, Keychain does. I don't use that feature in any password manager but some people really love it. Keychain will sync on any Windows/Mac Chromium based browser (so Edge, Brave, etc) plus

I think this would add friction on the whole, adding an authentication step to transactions where you currently just type in your card number and hit submit. It reduces friction compared to an alternative where you confirm transactions with

For areas that require a great deal of confidence in conclusions, like forensics and incident triage, I can only see generative AI making matters worse. There’s already a ton of over-automation and humans making mistakes because they trust

Sites that stream movies have nothing to do with anti-circumvention laws as they’re not breaking those laws. They are just breaking regular copyright laws.

Anti-circumvention laws are pretty global. It is part of the WIPO Copyright Treaty, which has been implemented in most major economies.

This is nothing new [1], but the music industry has seemingly been getting more aggressive recently. The other day there was a story about an independent label trying to get a Wikipedia article delisted [2]. TorrentFreak is doing great work

It only takes one mistake, but this was a pretty easy one to prevent. At a mature company with a decent security program, creating an internet facing Jenkins instance wouldn't have been approved by IT, doesn't matter if it was an

I don’t think that’s the point, when you get a device from Aliexpress that’s been tampered by the retailer (as opposed to the OEM), the bootloader will already be unlocked and you could install a clean OS. That’s okay if you are the one buy

Never been an issue? Just recently there was a LTT review of an Aliexpress laptop [1] where they found the Windows install had been tampered with (mostly because the Windows was pirated). PC or phone or anything, you buy stuff from shady so

Smart app banners don’t work in webviews, so on iOS you could block this technique by using a different browser. However, most iOS browsers set a different user agent that’s distinct from Safari, which might make you even more fingerprintab

I wonder if this will result in more diversity of ads, or more of the same. As a Brave user, the concept of automatically supporting websites and creators is interesting, but I don’t like seeing scammy crypto/web3 ads so I disabled the
