Brave's adblocker won't do anything against Google's trackers if Google builds it in to the engine. Again, I advise against trusting anything Chromium-based. Also, you apparently haven't heard of uBlock Origin's M

Sorry, but I'm not going to trust any browser based on Chrome. Even Brave. It's not long until Brave won't be able to support Manifest V2 as Google has every interest to kill it completely.

Very nice. I gave a lab assignment like this once! It's a great way to learn Prolog. https://github.com/agiacalone/cecs-342-lab-prolog

I was there too. Napster was good because it was new. And the music was yours when you got it. Never used NAV. Never cared to. Linux didn't need it. Hated Flash too, and never used it. Internet was still great without it. WAP was new,

Been using Standard Ebooks for a while now, but wanted to drop by here and say how great this site is! It's replaced P.G. for me (for whatever is on this site, at least) and I like the much nicer formatting on the texts. It's grea

Curiously, what is the alternative? Chromium-based browsers? Sorry, but I don't trust Google's push to Manifest V3.

I work as a lecturer on a college campus. Printed QR codes are everywhere . I even give a lecture to my advanced compsec class where I take a bunch of real flyers from all around campus and replace them with my own QR code.

Ad networks are a high traffic way to spread malware. I would never recommend disabling a blocker, especially on commerce sites.

Yes, it's any ham test in the U.S. The sw code (morse) portion was eliminated back in the 2000s.

This is a pretty gross mischaracterization of ham radio. There are exams, sure. But the entry level one(s) are typically not that bad. Something a high-school grad could do in an afternoon. Fortune? Most exams now are free, although there a

Weird to think that, in the not-so-distant-future, we'll be doing most of the social engineering attacks on LLMs.

I admit that I have not. But I have used it near other equipment and it causes interference. My Kenwood HT does not.

I forgot about that one use case. But it's not allowed for most practical purposes in the U.S. at least.

Also, the ham bands as a whole cannot be used for profit-motives or any financial gain. People often forget this rule. Not to mention the (kind of absurd, IMO) rule against any form of encryption.

I have one too, and it gives off tons of spurious emissions (RF interference). I pretty much only use it for experimentation and receive.
