At some point something has to give though. Security and convenience are constantly at odds with each other. My opinion is that it's far better to convince people that it's worth the inconvenience rather than watering the security

Well I mean, like I say, I'm pretty careful not to let out personal information online (Although I'm sure someone could probably track me down if they really tried). Without being in that situation it's pretty hard to say. Pe

Having been on the internet since a young age, I've always found it strange the internet is, well, so "srs business" these days. The internet has never, and as you say, will never be a harmonious place where everyone will be

Just a note - looking at Wox, the official repo seems to be unmaintained, there's appears to be an active fork here however: https://github.com/jjw24/Wox/

As always, a reminder that the Reader button exists in the menubar in Firefox and it's a godsend for pages like this! (although one of the less intrusive ads still seems to get through). Alternatively, the article itself seems to load

This Christmas I finally took the time (which admittedly didn't take long; I was just lazy until now) to set up LibreElec on my pi and hook it up to my TV, and I honestly don't know how I've overlooked this for so many years.

The "I don't care about cookies" addon[0] seems to do a pretty good job of it, I've not seen a banner in ages. I assume it works on a mixture of detecting popular cookie popup js libraries, and user feedback for the rest

A minor nitpick, but the "Cookie Law" that introduced these banners was way before GDPR, although the GDPR does have articles that also talk also about cookies. The intent of the parts of GDPR which mention cookies (or, at least,

Lubuntu is using LXQT these days right? I'm running it on arch, but by default that DE should support menu searching out of the box, and if it doesn't I expect it's been configured out for some reason. Definitely worth playin

For some reason I don't ever see people recommending the MSMG Toolkit[0]. With it, you can take a regular Win10 Home or Pro .iso, and completely gut it. Like, completely gut it. It'll stop automatic Windows updates (you can still

Google actually honors that for you? It seems for me that no matter how hard I try to tell it that I _absolutely_ want an exact search term, it tells me to go fuck myself and returns results that don't include it. DDG seems to do a muc

Why would they when people keep buying it regardless? Why would a company ever change when they're making more money than ever and the consumers don't care?

If people do that, that's on them. So long as the device appropriately warns people, I fail to see how it's the companies problem to baby people who don't know what they're doing. It's their device, if they want to

While I can't say anything from the prospect of an interviewer, as an interviewee I am a big advocate for this style. Give someone a set of requirements, and then talk through how they would solve it. Allow for further clarification,
