Exactly. Being able to copy data from the PDF instead of relying on OCR or copying by hand is a great asset. Also, in my country if I send plain screenshots from important things like bank transfers, legal documents instead of the generated

Sometimes you must send a proper PDF. And saving a page to PDF (or "printing") is a basic feature of a browser. They shouldn't release a mobile browser without that. Also, sending a low quality screenshot of a mobile screen i

Maybe you could try by modifying WinPE images [0]. They're quite lightweight. WinPE has been around since Windows XP and it's updated regularly. The last version matches with Windows 11 incoming release. [0] https://en.

I expect that Microsoft won't like this and they will patch it. Even if Firefox does this with good intentions, malware creators can follow Firefox's example to do the same. Since Firefox is open source they only need to copy the

Well, it did drop to 3.9 stars. Initially, Google Play reviews got filled with 1 star reviews from users complaining that a lot of their workflows were broken, things that they liked were removed, extensions not working (unless you used the

On Oracle most of the error messages are bad, not precise enough or plainly wrong. Basic things like a wrong error line (failure is on line 3, displays 5 or 6), messages that aren't related to the real issue. You're pretty much on

Well, I used to work with Oracle Databases and that "old man" (Donald Burleson) website has saved me quite a few times. I even remember the "Learn Oracle at the Sea" advertisement. But that's the state of affairs a

Pretty much, nothing of value was lost today. It would be more surprising if Fedora started to bundle not legally available applications [0] or Debian added the nvidia or amdgpu-pro drivers by default. [0] https://docs.fedoraproj

Manjaro used to do nothing around Vivaldi's package. It's just the inherited community/vivaldi package from the Arch Linux's repositories. I have a Manjaro and an Arch Linux machine with me so I can just type "pacma

Both Manjaro and its parent Arch Linux aren't distros oriented to pure FOSS. The community repository contains a mix of open and closed source applications. And there's AUR to build your own custom packages, which most of them ar

As a Vivaldi user I'm quite happy to see my default browser as a default for Manjaro Cinnamon. I've been using it since 1.x on both desktop and mobile (after they added the adblocker). From my point of view, I try FOSS alternative

The Chinese Government is speeding up their efforts to swallow Hong Kong and Macau into the Mainland. Closing the media outlets, museums, websites that speak against them. And a few key people get abducted here and there to scare more peopl

It's not a good idea to ban chemical fertilizers when your whole food production depends on them. Ecologism may sound like a beautiful thing but it can't be implemented overnight and at scale. It's just ignoring decades of hu

It has good enough specs for daily activities like browsing, whatsapp, telegram, signal messaging... Seems like a nice little device. I too hope it gets LineageOS (and if I remember well... The ROM scene is quite active in India. After all,

Kiwi Browser also allows to install Chrome extensions. I keep it as an alternative browser with uBlock and other useful extensions. Also, Vivaldi has a fairly complete adblocker built-in, with custom filter lists and also scores a solid 100

My bad, I really should be more careful with autocomplete. I just fixed my message. Mullvad's pricing page explains their available payment methods quite well: https://mullvad.net/en/pricing/

Both Mullvad and Mozilla VPN are the same service (Mozilla leases it from Mullvad). Mullvad has a flat monthly fee (5€) and only stores a randomly generated 16 digit account number that you can stop filling up the day you want. You can pay

It doesn't feel that detached from reality. I watch a lot of small YouTube channels (some of them don't even reach 100 subscribers) and their comments are flooded by bots. Channel owners remove them quickly though. Some of them p

Firefox is another nice alternative if you have a good Android phone I guess. Sadly, I have a quite old Android device (but its battery life it's still good) where Chromium-based browsers are already quite slow and Firefox feels even s

Use Bromite, Vivaldi or Brave on Android. They have built-in ad tracker protection. The first two even support custom filtering lists. On iOS the options are a bit worse but Brave has some kind of adblocking that works. Safari also supports

You can't compare pears to apples. Tibet and Crimea annexations were quite different. Crimea used to be part of Russian Empire and then part of the Russian SSR until it was gifted to Ucranian SSR as a region in 1954. A 65% of the resid

Unless Samsung enforces an internet connection on the first start of the TV it's completely useless as long as they don't connect it. Still, a worrisome approach. After a few years if they shut down or change the blocking servers
