I opened an issue about it in the past at https://github.com/i3/i3/issues/2971 . Apparently it's not on the roadmap, but someone posted an xdotool script in the comments that you can chain with every foc

That's always been my primary reason, honestly. Yes, I also take the Intel Inside stickers off my laptop.

HTML also works perfectly well offline, though, if you don't reference online assets. And if your objection is that it can run JavaScript and make web requests, then I have some bad news for you about PDFs.

I literally typed nytimes.com into my browser moments ago, right after typing in news.ycombinator.com. Granted, I'm sure I'm an outlier but it was an entertaining coincidence, especially as I don't typically read the NY Times

I hacked up an existing (shitty) webchat client I had around to do this: https://github.com/Qu4Z/chattr-nojs It still uses CSS so as not to be ugly, colour-code messages by user, and to position the "Enter message

I found it helped me that "indicators of compromise" is written out in full in the relevant paragraph, and then just abbreviated in the summary. It's rough if you're skimming though (and who has time to read everything o

One option means no choice :) I have a Key2 and I'm fairly happy with it (and the pain points are more with Android than with the phone itself).

As far as I can tell, your main choice there is a Blackberry Key2. There's not a heck of a lot of variety in hardware-keyboard phones...

You can turn off tap-to-click (and I strongly recommend doing just that). Other than that it's the best pointer input device, though.

I unfortunately have to second this. The bridge solution is a nice attempt at supporting open standards, but it's not on Linux or Android which basically means my email is silo-ed. I can't use it with my regular mail client and th

I'm not sure whether you're aware that "time for you to leave" is a reference to the old Kung Fu TV show[0]. I also don't know enough about systems programming to be sure whether RET or LEAVE is the right instructio

I'm fairly sure you can also just get the client to request http://example.com:443/ . The cookies get sent before the server goes "Wait, what?".

It does not have an app store. On the other hand, it monitors my step count, heart rate, and exercise sessions. It lets me set alarms that trigger during the lightest part of my sleep cycle, and it displays notifications from my phone. It&#

I have no concrete examples, but even with '+"term"' I've had google return results with "ten" bolded as if it matched, with "term" nowhere on the page. EDIT: Not those exact terms obviously, but

I'm definitely with you on the "Traditional watch" front. I was looking into smart watches recently and decided the so-called Hybrid Smartwatches were definitely more my style. I ended up getting a Nokia Steel HR. The display

Disabling the Google apps hasn't lead me to need time maintaining my phone. Disabling Play Services and Play Store makes things a hassle, but stuff like Google Drive or Google Play Music doesn't.

You can also run multiple profiles in parallel, using something like firefox --no-remote --profile-manager I have that as an alias in bash, and a shortcut on my Windows desktop.

I think it was "People updating their iOS" more than iOS unqualifiedly. If people are Patching Their Shit that seems like a security win regardless of platform.

I would've made that argument then, and it's the reason I have a Blackberry today. It's just straight up not as good, in my opinion. But yes, people in general seem to be fine with it. I just wanted to push back against the i

Attending a con doesn't strike me as that provocative, honestly. (I do agree that he's kind of a dick, don't get me wrong. Just not in that particular incident so much).
