He should be complaining to the standards bodies. DKIM keys should expire like most other asymmetric cryptosystems. There will always need to be backward compatibility, but then it's your fault if you're using outdated software or

Super secret spy agencies are much less competent than you'd be led to believe. I'd be more afraid of Google and Facebook.

Linux UI is far worse than Windows. It's not even close. I use Linux but definitely not for its UI. Windows can out-of-the-box do HiDPI, multiple monitors, multiple desktops, trackpad gestures, hardware accelerated UI rendering, facia

Then you don't get to use what is probably the biggest selling point of MBPs, their patented touchpad and gestures.

If Apple is so good at chip design why don't they just pivot to that? Then we can all standardize on the single (objectively superior) software stack that is Android. There is a lot of money to be made with licensing and they wouldn&#x

The overhead of Kubernetes's runtime (Go) is nonzero. It's meant to run on Xenons which is going too far for a home server. You have the slow Go GC then you add on top of it a bunch of PHP and Ruby apps like Nextcloud, sprinkle a

Ten years ago it looked like that might be where the entertainment industry was headed, but then Netflix and Spotify got big because it was even more convenient than torrents. When there are 10 major streaming services with exclusive conten

It's called torrents. All the content on all the streaming platforms for an even cheaper price ($0).

The success of Medium has proven that lowering the barrier to write content is extremely valuable. If you're asking people to "work for free" then it should be as easy as possible and not feel like an errand. When you're

JSON is popular because of JS and web browsers. It's the native serialization format of the most popular platform, so naturally it is the most baby ducked. There are also pragmatic reasons such as browsers and various interpreters (Pyt

TOR, at the moment, is based on TCP and since the whole architecture is based on the assumption of TCP, I don't see it changing anytime soon. QUIC means TOR is now "legacy" unless we just do the right thing and boycott QUIC.

Not hostile. Just pointing out the hypocrisy of embracing "openness" and "free software" that anyone could use freely, then getting mad when someone does use it. Also it's funny to see the FOSS crowd rediscover the
