The situation is wild. In older Outlook versions they've used IE to render the received mails but used a custom engine when you were writing/editing an email. You could even use Word as an editor so you could generate the HTML usi

I don‘t know too much about this but I kind of always assumed that even if there was perfect separation, one way for the NSA to get to the necessary data would be through GCHQ as an agency in Europe which could help and share this data. It

Shadowsocks and similar tools are mainly about obfuscating your traffic flow so it‘s harder to classify and block by the GFW, right? The Tor Project has the „obfsproxy“ project for that I think, or is that aimed at something else? I always

But any of the VPN services out there do that for you without the incredible stigmata of having an IP of a Tor Exit Node and the reduced performance of the Tor Network.

It's commendable that the project states "anonymity is hard to get – solely using Tor doesn’t guarantee it" and "it is strongly advised not to use TorBox if your well-being depends on your anonymity". Other such sol

I do agree that it looks like they should not have engaged him on his level by pouring gas on the flames every time he went off the rails. Remaining on topic would have been the "professional" way to go I guess and just leave him

I think it's perfectly fine for a project to have a discussion about what they are calling themselves and what the consequences of that are. I really like the introduction of the linked wiki and I think it leaves it open to anyone to a

wow, this is crazy. I would never have imagined this level of a shitshow when you said "annoying"... But what to do with such a person if you can't/won't ban them from posting? Delete his comments? Don't engage

I am also a happy Telegram user and think it offers amazing UX but if you leave WhatsApp due to privacy concerns, Telegram might not be the right solution. All Groups and by default any other conversation you have are only encrypted in tran

I've run a Mumble server for my friends group for a while. It worked fine and had a couple of nice features, e.g. that anyone could create a temporary channel and move there with some people and when they all quit the channel would be

For a first step these labels are okay but I would like for the developers to have to provide more details on the what/why/whatfor for all these points to settle exactly this dispute.

Instead of the brutal patchsets that simply remove all the features that touch anything from google, it would have been amazing if there was a project that aims to make them pluggable, maybe even to end users, not just during compile time.

I was a bit shocked when I was hit by this a couple of years back (2017) and learned that browsers are adamant about providing autocomplete, going so far as to infer the type from labels or placeholder strings. The problem was even more fru

I do wonder how all the Nintendo leaks do/will/don't impact emulator development. If the core team don't look at it, fine but how can they accept PRs/MRs and make sure nothing from the leak makes it into their codeb

Documentation is a big pain point for many of the big platforms for me. Be it Android or iOS. On the Android side it seems like there was a huge push for documentation some years ago but due to the sheer size and scope it seems like many th
