A smart online newspaper that suddenly sees a lot of hits on their "model bus" article would seize that opportunity. They could rewrite the URL and show an inbetween page that says something along the lines of "we see you are

Running 2k3 office outside of a container, vm or otherwise, is not recommended as it hasn't seen security patches in about a decade. Where you see no problems i can only think "Eeeks".

This isn't the first post of TS either, but it looks like it is his first successful one. FWIW, had a few failed "Show HN's" myself. You certainly need a certain amount of luck in order to get enough upvotes to be notice

You are trying to make me say things I never said. What I did was try Brave out. I _want_ to like the product. On top of that I have a lot of respect for most of the people behind the project. As a security conscious person I looked at what

I'm not claiming they are doing something nefarious. Trust is something you have to earn. I do not install Chrome as I do not trust google. They have too much of my data already. Brave claims at their main page: "Brave is open sou

Figured to try Brave as it keeps popping up. Installed it and then noticed in my firewall that it is - trying to connect to a number of IPs owned by google, umm OK - sending a multicast SSDP UDP request on port 1900 to 239.255.255.250 So go

No worries. It runs native, so your statement wasn't technically wrong. Just wanted to point out that it does still look and behave a bit different from using native controls. Although apparently that nowadays that depends on the host

Firemonkey does not use native controls, it draws its own buttons and other controls.
