   I didn't even know about "HTTP Exchanges", and I'm more interested than ~98% of the population about this kind of stuff. Showing the name of the "signer" in the address bar, instead of the server where the cont

   What if you left your phone at home and it's not connected to the Internet?. I usually leave my phone at random places in my house and have to find it and 'wake it up' so that it connects to the wifi and I can use Whatsapp we

   Sad to think that the Internet is becoming increasingly censored by many governments. Maybe the Unabomber was right ,and you can't have technology and freedom at the same time. People just don't like freedom when it affects them n

   > Under copyright law, translation of a work is considered a kind of modification. Wow. I'm really curious about what legally counts as a translation. It's an interesting mathematical problem.

   Have you tried Lineage OS?. It's an open source Android distribution, it doesn't include Google's proprietary stuff (Google Play services and such, even though you can include it if you really want to) and works surprisingly

   Have you had RSI issues? Do you use it with the default keybindings? I've tried it a few times but the default keybindings seem unnatural to me. Not that it's Emacs fault, considering the keyboards they used back then.

    In which ways would they keep spying on you? If you install privacy badger, block their IP addresses on your hosts file, don't use an Android phone(at least not a stock ROM), don't visit Google sites, etc. I don't think they

    How much would it cost to hunt [insert group of people here]? Even if someone commented that as "sarcasm" it would look pretty bully to me.

    IMO, all patents need to be abolished ASAP. They're a bad idea to begin with, and this case is just particularly ridiculous. Don't hate the player, hate the game.

    That would be such a stupid way to implement a search. When you search you don't type letter by letter and inspect the suggestions after each keystroke. You type many letters and only then you inspect the suggestions/results.

    Pardon my ignorance, but what's the nature of these musl-related issues? Is it because some programs or libraries use glibc specific-features/bugs? Or is it something else? Does glibc have their own non-standard functions?

    When does he say that he uses Linux Mint?. From what I've seen, his desktop looks like Gnome 2 with a dark theme, or a heavily modified Gnome 3.

    I'm sorry but I didn't quite understand the first paragraph of your comment. English is not my native language. What I call the SJW movement is people who see the world as a battle between races, genders, sexual orientations inste

    What things about Firefox are not user friendly? I'm genuinely asking, I'm not defending Firefox. The only one I know of is that you have to go to about:config to disable Javascript.

    I agree that communicating things differently would convince more people, but on the other hand, the man is like he is, and I dislike when people try to mold you to fit their person stereotype, almost like you can't be different from t
