I didn't mention my vaccination status or any conspiracy theories, those are your projections. You seem triggered by this debate, so I don't think a productive conversation is frankly possible. If you honesty think rejecting new t

What's going to happen the day you meet someone who doesn't want the vaccine or a 5G phone? Is your brain just going to combust, or something? Are you okay?

Unbelievable cringe, possibly even more so than actual Facecrook product. I couldn't even watch the whole thing as it was too painful. I know it's satire, but it's just too painful to watch even a satirical rendition of creep

I literally quoted Demolition Man - the irony that this comment was memory-holed is apparently lost on the moderators of this "hacker" board.

John Spartan, you are fined one credit for a violation of the Verbal Morality Statute. Discussing vaccination restrictions has lowered your social credit score and you are now also banned from owning firearms. Oh wait, that's already t

No information on how it's secured, audited or even considerations about software lifecycle. This project is either straight up compromised or begging to be - the browser equivalent of rolling your own crypto.

This is the hilarious irony of this entire software project. I trust Google a lot more to produce a safe binary than some random internet stranger who promises to be good. Even if I don't ultimately trust Google as a software vendor, I

Eat whole plant based foods. At first it's difficult, but taste for it develops and so do one's cooking abilities. Healthy eating is like playing a video game on high difficulty settings - arduous and steep learning curve, but rew

Same, really not a fan of the dumbed-down Apple look laptops are heading in. Look to old school Thinkpads if you want "Linux-friendly" inspiration.

The best thing you can do for your personal and our collective compensation right now is to quit and seek a higher, more equity-based employment offer elsewhere.
