The whole credit card payment system is built on another legacy system (we have emboss letter on credit card because of compatibility with a zip-zap machine!) so having explicit authorization consent for recurring payment is probably not go

This is probably enforced at the policy level rather than systematic, like many other things in the credit card industry. The likely implementation of this, is that the merchant will be liable for chargebacks if they can't prove that t

I believe First Party Isolation is what you're looking for. To enable, change `privacy.firstparty.isolate` to `true`. See also previous discussion[1] [1]: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17944991

Spacemacs does indeed use evil. I found Spacemacs to be great starting point for someone new to Emacs, but after a while I highly recommend extracting your workflow from Spacemacs to vanilla Emacs. Thanks to use-package[1] (that Spacemacs a

That's certainly an option if you want to run public DNS-over-HTTPS server, but you don't have to do that – DNSCloak do provide a way to specify a local blocklist. DNS-over-HTTPS spec also mentioned that you can use a standard HTT

by sirn 8y ago
You can use DNSCloak[1] for this. It runs a local DNSCrypt client and acts as iOS VPN. You can run your own DoH server that blocks tracking domains, or use a public DoH server that does, or use a well-known provider that provides DoH (e.g.

Nix does everything I want, but I find it hard to convince friends and coworkers to try out Nix. I think this is partly due to Nix itself not belonging to the Python's ecosystem, so the barrier is higher than say, "Yeah, Pipenv is

I have been revisiting buildout recently and I wish there's something that merge ease of use of pipenv with buildout concept. Perhaps something similar to Nix throw in the mix, but more specific to a Python project. I heard that I can

Just want to add: if anyone running iOS, you might want to try DNSCloak[1] which is a small wrapper over dnscrypt-proxy. I've been using it for a while and it has been reliable so far. I also run my own DoH server in Singapore that blo

I believe Chrome itself do invoke Keystone when visiting chrome://chrome to manually check for updates, as it looks like from a forum post[1] (Chrome unable to check for updates after chmod 000'ing GoogleSoftwareUpdateAgent)

I have never tried, but presumably launchd won't run the Keystone agent (although using defaults command can archive the same, if we were to just disable it from running). The issue is when we want to keep Chrome and maybe other Google

Keystone Agent is running by launchd on macOS, usually modifying defaults can stop it from running: defaults write com.google.Keystone.Agent checkInterval 0 However, this won't remove the agent from the system, and I think the

You can try either Tridactyl[1] or Vim-Vixen[2]. They come pretty close to the Vimperator experience (although with WebExtension limitations). I'd recommend Tridactyl with native extension though (install the extension and type :instal
