I don't think it's a UTF-8 problem. It's just that most people don't have "Å" on their keyboard.

They are 2 different services, run by different people, one goes out of their way to bypass paywalls while the other doesn't, one is banned by Wikipedia and the other isn't, etc. I think it's a distinction worth making. Not t

They need access to sites to archive them. It's already hard to do it as it is, imagine if they start selling access to content. They'd be shooting themselves on the foot, independently of what the law says.

I think the Hugging Face attack is just a preview of what's to come. It doesn't need to be very intelligent to cause serious issues.

How many apple seeds do you need to eat to get to that point?

I don't find it hard to believe that eventually some AI may kill a number of humans. You give it instructions to do something, it goes off the rails and after a certain point starts having like malware, destroying things to accomplish

This seems to be a very powerful way to contribute to OpenStreetMap, but I'm not sure if it's the right option for a new user. I have over 2k contributions and most are from the Every Door app ( https://every-door.app&#

Kagi seems to heavily rely on Yandex for results. I don't use it, so can't compare, but are results much better than using Yandex directly?

Kagi was using Yandex, it comes up on every Kagi post here. Seems that they've removed that info from their site now though...

Not to the same extent, but during his first term, his administration had issues with Canada, Mexico, Europe/UK, NATO, China, etc. Tariffs were a thing back then already. And he was elected again. Clearly it wasn't a huge issue fo

Can I still get Google Adsense payments when Google has my European bank account and address if there are sanctions or something like that? Can I still login to my Cloudflare account and manage a domain registered with them? Will I lose acc

I'm not sure if it's really a "trump agenda". The ideas didn't start with him, the people who voted for said ideas aren't going to suddenly disappear, and this is his second term. It looks more like part of the

Something changed because Apple Weather has never been as accurate as Dark Sky for me, especially for rain forecast. I used to be able to go on walks without an umbrella because of how reliable it was at predicting when rain was going to re

Early this year I was thinking "will I still have access to this service if they invade Greenland?" Never had to do it before. That's how much it has changed.

There's a lot of important data that runs through Cloudflare, so I think it's a bit naive to think that there's nothing interesting for the NSA there.

That's just what the countries that defeated Germany did. The Americans had Paperclip, the soviets had Operation Osoaviakhim: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Osoaviakhim Not to mention the initial dash to

That will depend a lot on the user/customer base you have. I doubt your business will continue as normal if you support those same ideas publicly and many of your clients are likely to be targeted, for example. The same would happen if

I don't think Anthropic was punished for technical reasons.

That "You would willingly and intentionally chose a less secure [...]" did sound like you assuming they would do it, but I guess I misunderstood what you were saying. My bad. By the way, if you don't consider politics when ma

You should check your settings (or run this again) after each major update, because Microsoft loves to reset some settings to default.

Been using this for a few years, since I moved to Windows 10, so I don't think it's a copy. But thanks for the link, wasn't aware about that open source project.

I guess for that you could have a Windows machine just for gaming. No need to deal with the trade-offs of that come with using a console (if that matters to you).

This is more a decrapifier than an "anti-spy tool". Yes, it also lets you easily block things like microphone access and disable AI features, but it's not a firewall. I started using it with Windows 10 because I could disable

Slow down mate, you're not replying to the same user :-) You asked them the following: > Would you chose a product inferior to 1password if it better aligned with your politics? Nowhere in your question you mentioned security, but y

by celsoazevedo 22d ago
This doesn't concern me, but how do you go from "inferior product" to "less secure" and "let me contact your employer"? There are other secure password managers out there, including open-source alternative

(In case you're not aware) It's the same thing. Uber operates in London as private hire operator, so their drivers are mini cab drivers. Same rules (now: basic English and rules test, yearly car inspections, MOT every 6 months, ca
