Yes. I firmly believe this is an attack on user control. For example, I believe they REALLY want us to use the youtube app: - Viewing youtube.com on a new iPad pro, Goolag lies and says "your browser doesn't support 1080p." -

“Unwillingness to support content creators” We are under absolutely NO obligation to support them. They like to talk. We may or may not like to listen. They are the digital equivalent of HAM radio operators, and Spotify is acting like wors

Thanks! I figured it had already been tried. I wonder if it can still be done.

Sign all the things! But for real. I had an idea a while back: with all the photo/audio/video manipulation and ‘deep fakes’, there should be a certification available that accompanies (very expensive) cameras/recorders with p

Unless he's using scrap wood he's salvaged, Mathias almost always uses birch plywood. He uses the gears in many heavier-than-you-would-think-duty applications. Mathias was an engineer for BlackBerry Ltd. before he retired young.

I think your points are completely biased. I'm going to rail against your attitude here, not you: 0. Appeal to authority. 1. Sounds like job security. 2. Footers are NOT useless. Menus are aggravating. 3. Analytics are 99% evil, 1% hot

Why does it NEED to be public? So the bad actors can know how they are being caught and mitigated and can circumvent again and again?

How does one defeat these evil systems? For example, I recently had an emergency that I HAD to get in touch with a company, but kept being rerouted, re-advertized to, hung up on. The emergency unfortunately was not handled in time.

The point to a 27" 4K monitor is two fold: - More stuff on the screen. Some people can see all the pixels of a 4K display. or - More detail on your stuff. Some people really enjoy crisper lines. There is no point to scaling one 1080p-s

Why? How? This would have to be a Federal program, and it doesn't fall under their purview to provide such a program. The States are all independent in this regard. For example, even though we all have Driver's Licenses, the 50 st

This does break all sorts of apps/workflows, and it's a pain having to let each and every tool (pip/curl/firefox/java/etc...) know about the cert you want it to know about.

Does anyone else here use Mattermost, an open source, self-hosted alternative to Slack? I like it. We're not allowed to store communication offsite. I have no experience with Slack, so I'm wondering how current offerings compare.
