Hitting the back button after initial visit gives me a login prompt. That's pretty annoying... https://imgur.com/605DZMN

It would definitely help, I highly doubt spammers would use that sort of mechanism. The solution gets around potential vendor lock-in and privacy issues with a service like Google's, but it still fundamentally shifts the problem from t

The frustrating thing about this is that you don’t even have to “spend a little more” every time. I make a lot of purchases from bigger stores like Target and Home Depot, and smaller local book, speciality food, home and garden stores etc.,

Interesting. What exactly does the `--no-remote` command do? I couldn't find any real detailed info about from a quick search. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Command_Lin...

The conclusion of the linuxreviews article doesn’t really make a strong case for any major difference between the browsers — It is hard to declare an absolute winner. Brave and Chromium, seem to be the overall winners but Pale Moon, SeaMon

> The @ operator no longer silences fatal errors Interesting. There are still some legitimate (well, “legitimate”) use cases for that behavior e.g. with PHP’s native XML extensions.

This is worth a title clarification, I think. Seems a pretty clear attempt to sensationalize. E.g. “Vulnerability in Wordpress Database Reset Plugin” would be clearer.

This is the messaged PR “postmortem”. It’s basically a shoulder shrug emoji and takes zero responsibility for the incident. They also failed to address their abysmal responses on Twitter that essentially belittled and poked fun at the aff

I haven’t played Fortnite, but this sounds (at least partially) like Battlefield 2 about 15 years ago — huge 64 player maps with fast paced action. I remember at the time being amazed that I could fly jets and helicopters, drive tanks, or j

As a user of Transit (an app similar to Citymapper), I find it odd when I see people fumbling with Google/Apple Maps for transit. The first thing I see when I open Transit is all the nearby transit stop and lines available. That alone
