That's exactly the issue I have with passkeys. All that lockin to big tech. I tried bit warden but most sites with passkeys didn't work with it (like Amazon and PayPal). And on android it only wants to use the Google version (I do

Ah ok I was not aware of that. I have not flown a plane that had it (I did fly some with G1000 and autopilot but it didn't have this, I think it's only an option on the G3000). But I just saw about the activation button.

I only use OpenVPN (another reason to move away from Mullvad), not their own clients. I moved away from PIA in the past, I don't remember why, it was a long time ago. I was happy with Mullvad for a long time, especially being able to b

I've used it and I found it the worst form of DRM. It required creating an "account" with Adobe despite having no relationship with them (It was to access books at my local library where I already had an account) and the soft

SafeReturn doesn't detect that as I understand it. It still requires manual activation by one of the passengers.

Why? It's still DRM. Pretty awful one IMO. Our local library used it. Personally I just buy my books DRM free now. If that's not possible, then I get them from my friend Anna who has a nice library.

True, especially the goods shipped "with prime". It's always a 5-10 bucks premium over the AliExpress price of the same item. It depends on how much in a hurry I am.

Yeah I recently downloaded all my purchased content (while that was still possible, it isn't anymore) and liberated it all. I'm not going to buy any more DRM content.

Exploratory yes but when you're still exploring it's not a great idea to bet a whole company on something that might not pan out. Or to dump stuff on users with lots of promotion that may or not be actually useful. And yeah for ac

No I agree with you. I think it is bad framing as "S3 open bucket" when people would totally understand an open website :) I'm not shitting on anything except the wording in the article. I guess I didn't word it clearly.

An 'open S3 bucket' sounds really bad. If it were posted on an HTTPS site without authentication, like the firmware for most devices, it wouldn't sound so bad. Sure an open bucket is bad, if it's stuff you weren't p

They did actually jump on metaverse with Firefox reality and Mozilla hubs. Both weren't bad products at all. Both are now cancelled and they have done basically nothing for Mozilla's market position. Edit: so I mean I agree here i

I think the correlation of people using extensions and people disabling telemetry is pretty high. I do both myself. Even a decent password manager requires one (though not on android because it has an API for that). On android I do use othe

I don't agree. I think opinionated design products are much worse in general. It's really great when your opinions are aligned with those of the designer. If they're not, you're straight out of luck and you're stuck

Hmm in our community it's also a way to connect when you meet someone at parties, that doesn't expose too many details like your real name or phone number.
