By going through that line of thought, you could also argue that the slow implementation for the slow version in C and Rust is actually implemented in C, as memcpy is on glibc. Hence, Python being faster than Rust would also mean in this ca

I've been using sourcegraph when I'm not logged in, which has also the bonus of being a lot better (at least when compared to the old search). It's as simple as appending the repo URL, starting from github.com: e.g. sourcegr

As of yesterday Cypress binaries for older versions started blocking third-party plugins, breaking CI for multiple users. It bypasses package.lock and yarn.lock as it downloads a binary from their CDN when installing. See also: https:&#x2F

gnome-terminal does support bracketed paste[0], and both bash 5.1 and zsh 5.1 enable it by default, so if you paste into it it will input a newline in the prompt instead of executing the command [0] https://en.m.wikipedia.org&#x2

I use an app called "Open In WhatsApp" which lets you paste / write a phone number and it will open a conversation with that number (by using android intents). You can also share contacts from the Phone app to this App, so yo

Can't you use a "sanctioned" VPN to tunnel your connection to a "real" VPN or any wireguard endpoint? They could still be able to find out you're using a VPN, but not monitor your traffic.

Do those companies specify what they use it for? They probably have their own internal "small-ish backoffice systems".

Have you tried rebuilding the XPI in a different way or trying a different XPI? I would guess that your addon is broken, as it works for me: https://postimg.cc/9rkbMd7v I understand the frustration and would also like impro

Just as a curiosity, why? Do official carrier support matter that much in the US?

Oh, good to know! That seems very real but I don't use it that much and it'll still gonna be a good upgrade for me.

Just a correction, but the Fairphone 4 does have a SD card slot.

For Rust specifically, the compiler does force safe programs to have no data races. That's actually what the ownership system, Send and Sync are about. If you manage to corrupt memory or have undefined behavior in safe Rust, that shoul

WireGuard is pretty minimalist and has great defaults, AFAIK if you manage to set it up you're good. Unless your credentials leak, of course, but a security expert would have that same risk.

I'd even argue that the only reason it currently is hard to do it in many parts of the world is just because people believe it's impossible. You need general population support to make changes.

This is all just giving away control to corporations. Freedom is about having the option, not using it. Even if most "regular users" never use it, if they ever change their mind they'll surely appreciate having it. It also af

By default firefox only prevents content with audio from autoplaying, which I can't think of any way to circumvent and it's probably good enough for most people.

A minute ago StackOverflow was also throwing "Oops! Something Bad Happened!" to me on many different pages. I wonder if that's somehow related or just a coincidence.
