RT has been a joke ever since they rated a Marvel movie as the greatest achievement of cinematography in history.

This would very quickly devolve into either a hardcore bullying platform, or a banfest of everyone who criticizes the favorite people of the site's owner, his friends, and moderators.

Not just image searches, the entire website is basically unusable, especially without proper filters to block whole screen popups, unwanted login prompts, and modal windows obscuring everything. Not to mention the JS messing up the browser

Nothing against TOTP per se, but plenty enough against Google Authenticator and its typical use cases. If you log into a website on your phone and use an authenticator running on the same phone, it's not 2FA, it's just two passwor

That's why everyone sane avoids giving out their phone numbers to any company except dire necessities, like maybe banks. Use U2F, don't use "google authenticators" or any other pseudo-2FA. No website has any business kno

The day this comes out I hope there will be a browser extension that automatically strips the retarded DRM by copying the html from the "viewer" website and replies to the original sender with the contents, so that a "cracked

They're cocky enough now to think that they can take on the e-mail as a de facto standard and do the Embrace, Extend, Extinguish dance with it. This is akin to DRM and just like DRM it will be ineffective - if I can see it, I can forwa

It's a matter of policy for them to never disclose anything but the vaguest possible details about the case if there's any suspicion of wrongdoing on the user's part.

So now anyone who has ever owned a terminated account is a Typhoid Mary and as Google refuses to provide any details about their bans and cuts all communications with banned accounts, it's like being exiled by a commandment from high a

I can't believe they used git even in the 70s and they managed to do it all in just 4 commits. Incredible engineers and astounding geniuses.

I also wrote a NES emulator in Rust, and managed to do it without using a single unsafe block. I used SDL bindings for graphics, if that counts, but it can also run in headless mode (for testing) without SDL perfectly well.

They do spy on how you move the mouse though. But it's all to detect "automated traffic", you see.

Horror stories like this one crop up every now and then. The other time they locked all the G Suite accounts of an entire company just because one of the employees has made a couple of bad chargebacks for some Android apps on his private ac

They should start thinking about producing enough waste for themselves if they're unable to get by without imports, this creates a huge dependency on the US and most developed countries are completely self-sufficient when it comes to w

I eat McDonald's once or twice a month and I'm looked down upon for eating junk food, meanwhile a whale eats nothing but _literal_ junk and it makes the news and the whale is called a victim? Something doesn't add up here.

At this point, between no encryption, horrible clients, mistreatment of irc users, and questionable corporate behavior there's nothing in Slack that's worth saving it for me. Superior free software alternatives exist that bring th
