The shit has an MIT license... then requires an API key. Open source all the way, guys! Microsoft loves Open Source!

The bastardization of the term "decentralized" in this post has energy levels over 9000 for sure. Should be flagged as click-bait.

There are still occasional posts here that resonate with the hacker ethos. They don't seem to be very common, though, and the front page has a clear Big Tech bias. Many visitors are part of that $600bn market. The "adblockers are

costco.com is legal, malware is (often) not. Google is distributing malware, and getting paid for it. It is also actively promoting rogue websites that stand for the original product. This all seems very different from your costco example.

Indeed. Ads enable shitty products to exist, products people wouldn't pay for. That's why half the stuff on the Internet has ads -- it's complete and utter garbage nobody wants.

What do you mean? Everyone gets paid to serve ads, right? Otherwise, why are you serving ads? Not that I disagree with the accountability. Google and the other platforms are royally irresponsible.

We'll just advertise it on Google.

Possibly. But the site loads an order of magnitude faster than the ones it links to, aggregates all the updates in one place, and isn't riddled with Facebook/Google/Twitter crap. If there are trackers, they are not obvious to

Thanks for the heads-up. Guess they don't put that on the front page.

That's all fantastic, but this guy actually has a point. Software quality at large is pathetic, anybody who uses technology knows this, and especially those who develop it for a living. The lack of regulation plays a big role in this.

Is it, now? Is that all you've got? Funny how comments that hurt your egos get down-voted, but this kind of trivial comment gets by just fine.

Well, they betrayed themselves and became everything they stated they would not become.

I thought OpenFraud would have been more fitting. They are a fraud, and openly so about it. Possibly the only thing they are open about.

Unimaginable horror can come from stopping the endless pursuit of profit and the cutting of costs at the expense of quality in engineering. And to hold companies accountable? That is just over the top. Can you imagine if, next, people had..

No? You'd have to carry out the third-party software RCE on each individual user to install a keylogger. This attack installed a keylogger on a single computer, then exfiltrated millions of passwords. Centralization is a bad thing. Sam

This cannot be overstated. The online managers have an absurd amount of complexity. Just think of all the millions already spent tracing back the attack, writing these statements, all the turmoil inside the company... just for the convenien

What exactly makes the average Electron program so goddamn awful? Does the Javascript language inherently result in a bloat runtime? Are the runtimes accidentally bloat? Is it all the browser stuff and not the JS runtime per se? Or maybe ju

This sentence is great. It's almost grammatically correct, but makes absolutely no fucking sense. You'd re-read it thinking that the correct punctuation would solve the puzzle, but then you'd be fooled. Must be an adversarial

Can't argue with "few people care", but I'm just not sure what "new features" or other nonsense you'd be getting. I think much of the new phone-buying, Apple fanboys aside, is that carriers make it easy to

22.99 + 44.99 = 67.98 149.99 / 67.98 = 2.206 So the new phone costs >2x. Also, why do you need to replace the battery after 1 year, let alone the screen?
