Google have a special naughty list for anyone who google searches automatic or paid captcha solving, which makes recaptcha stricter for a few weeks/months. I wouldn’t be surprised if they apply it to visitors to this chrome web store p

It is a scary reality, one that I think the average person would be strongly against if they were aware of it. I would go so far as to say there should be laws or regulations preventing shadow banning/deletions

The name isn’t great, as someone unfamiliar with it, it sounds like a synonym of ‘Null FS’ and elicits thoughts of a mock filesystem for testing. In a list of filesystems I would gloss straight over it

The article talks about tar.gz for archival, which is scary considering none of tar.gz, tar.xz, tar.zstd are safe formats. Try corrupting a few bytes in the middle and half the archive is lost, even files untouched by the corruption Repair

systemd-nspawn is worth a look - I found it more intuitive, well designed and security conscious (within reason for containers) than the other container options. It must get some serious use behind closed doors somewhere, because the qualit

This brings back memories of the Xperia Z1 Compact (+ several later generations) that used this same design of gluing the screen and back glass independently to a mid frame. Unfortunately they are not good memories. The slightest, barely vi

Integer scaling still isn’t as good as CRTs because the gaps between the pixels don’t change. The grid of black between pixels is a key tool to make pixel art (and low resolution content in general) look good

Does it have 1000hz polling? NKRO? I got bitten by buying a non-gaming mechanical keyboard, thinking that for office/coding use gaming features were unnecessary. If I type my password at natural high speed, it nearly always transposes

The ${var} syntax has always been my preferred approach. In all the editors I’ve used it syntax highlights as if you had typed “.$var.”, rather than just displaying $var in bold and same colour as the string literal. Plus it allows for more
