I log into HN almost everyday, each time from a different location (Tor) and I've never seen a reCAPTCHA on HN.

The OS chrome between users varies a ton. Each taskbar, dock and titlebar can have their own size. In my case I'm using a window manager without decorations, so I don't even have a titlebar!

It could work if Firefox had as much marketshare as Chrome...

This is awesome. Other things I'd like to see added directly to Firefox are things like Ad and script blocking, HTTPS everywhere, and maybe something like a Tor button so that I don't have to rely on third parties for these critic

It's the same shortcut on Linux and *BSD and probably everywhere.

reCAPTCHA is a Google thing so it gets blocked in my browser already anyway (by uMatrix). If I need to load it to see a website, I close the tab immediately and go somewhere else.

I recommend the privacy.resistFingerpriting about:config mentioned. It's been available for a while and does other things too, like changing your user agent.

I don't know what you're getting at. I just wanted to share a trick.

Some of my oldest books had small roundish marks that come out if you vigorously wipe with a wet cloth. I'm pretty sure those must be bacteria living off organic matter from the paper.

I suppose this a good chance to ask: is it a good idea to try to keep old and browned books isolated from new ones? I imagine a cause of degradation is bacteria, so I worry that keeping them together will cause cross-contamination and accel

Better to use the `pwgen` command for that. There's no guarantee the passwords from that site are really random / not being stored.

That's really clever.

An attacker that knows your algorithm can restrict the search space to only sequences that follow the algorithm.

Well, I use pwgen and gpg ┐(´ー｀)┌ A great thing about password managers is that you can change your passwords more often since you don't have to bother coming up with and remembering new passwords. It can even be somewhat automated wit

What do mean by giving up entropy? Password reuse? You can use a password manager to generate a secure pass for every site, there's no excuse for weak passwords. Here's a few I made with `pwgen`, get it while it's hot: ai

Let this thread be a reminder for everyone to use a password manager.

If there are fewer female essayists the chance of any given one making into any given list is reduced. I'm not saying there are fewer female essayists, but if there is that's a reasonable alternative explanation to the (implied?)

Did you try Krita?

If people start buying Intel instead of Nvidia GPUs, that's good news for Linux and BSD.

For those that don't know, Krita is an excellent digital painting program with real potential to dethrone Photoshop. See the website for more info: http://krita.org Of the listed ideas, the one I want to see the most is an

>Are any security researchers actively researching this topic? What's the point? If you're using Windows you already lost. Use a FOSS OS if you care about your data, it's really the only answer.

I really, really want to use OpenBSD. I love everything they make. The one thing that keeps me on FreeBSD/Linux is ZFS support.

Sorry, it's my fault. I had Javascript disabled. I didn't realize it because the dropdown still worked, it just didn't have the search box.

Yes, I think that was it. It needs work, I can't even figure out how to search for my city.

I remember seeing a federated meetup.com alternative in the brief time I used Mastodon. I can't find it anymore though.

Awesome. Now I want to make one shaped like the Cardcaptor Sakura grimoire. You even get to upgrade it with each new Raspberry Pi generation.
