Cities will not need to do that. In Europe they are gradually banning cars as a whole from city centers an you are right, it saves lives. And it also makes those cities more livable. When I say gradually, it's an euphemism, it's a

Well, even if I define myself as a sort of anticapitalist, maybe before waiting for UBI (for which I’m for), we could also do something to halt this race to extreme inequalities. Even neoliberalism isn’t incompatible with dismantling monopo

You have an issue. Firefox is not slow by any means. I use all the browsers for work and Firefox for my navigation. Firefox have never been slower than anything else.

You are exaggerating here. While there was for sure a long period of time where Chrome was significantly faster than Firefox, there was never a time where Firefox was particularly bad. Firefox always oscillated between "really good&quo

I would be surprised if Mozilla’s VPN was a substantial source of income. They are just reselling Mullvad’s VPN but for double price. That’s incredibly lazy and I hope Signal will find something more ambitious.

There is a web version of iCloud Drive and iCloud Photos. They are not "great" but they are more than enough to download a zip with all your files and all your photos. From there you go where you want.

You are lucky. I just ignore the reminder until I really need to run. I think it’s a side effect of my ADHD medication : it both makes me focus a lot but also makes me pee way more so every time it’s a fight in my brain. </my-pee>

I worked in a company where the codebase of a team took hours to compile so it was compiled every nights. Interestingly, it may have been beneficial to focus because you had to work the entire day without compiling the code. I suppose that

I suppose that those laws are from an era where the only media you could write was audio cassettes and it was mostly a way to record FM radio or copy your friends music. And now there is an intense lobbying not to change things.

My natural workflow is everything full goes full screen. It’s sometimes painful on Windows but on Mac, it’s a breeze to switch full screen apps with the trackpad. But I’ve got the combo of myopia + ADHD so I naturally prefer little screens
