Totally agree. Many people who keep using Chrome have a VERY outdated view of what Firefox can do. That’s a shame, but it’s unfortunately an aspect of human nature that negative impressions are SUPER hard to change.

I don’t think that’s always the case. 1Password started out as a personal password manager and only added the corporate/teams/families features later.
I blame the tinfoil hat infosec crowd for not understanding that the world they inhabit is not the same one Regular Users live in.
Is there risk in keeping all your passwords in one place, whether it’s on your hardware or someone else’s? hell yes! Is that risk stastically speaking ANYTHING LIKE the risk you take when you use ‘pencil’ for all your passwords because you can’t be arsed to memorize anything more complex? OH HELL YES.
Sure, if you’re defending against nation state level agressors, maybe using a password manager isn’ the wisest choice, but for easily 99% of computer users, we’re at the level of “keeping people from drooling on their shoes”. So password managers are probably a GREAT idea.
Friends don’t let friends run Chrome.
This is brilliant. Thank you!
Long shot here: Donate to charities which help people in need in predominantly Trump held districts.
Less of a long shot: Volunteer for organizations like Vote Forward to try to reach folks. We’re all human beings at the end of the day, and appealing to people can’t hurt.
I think “malls” in the traditional sense of giant concrete behemoths with nothing but row after row of stored and fast food were killed by online, but if you open up the definition a bit, some are thriving.
Like where I live, it’s an ‘archology’. A mix of residential units on top and commercial on the bottom. All outdoors which is a draw for folks in the forever pandemic world.
Yeah, I feel like this is one of those memes that just travevls like lightning because it’s attractive to people.
IPv6 WAS crazy bad for a very long time, so I can kind of understand it at least, but wake up and smell the 128 bit addressing people, ipv6 is a SUPER useful tool when you need it :)
Please stop doing web dev, it isn’t real.
So, let me guess. Web dev isn’t “real” but Linux kernel dev is VERY real?
I mean, I don’t take issue with what SEEMS like your base case: Capitalism is crap and money is a silly game we all play, but what I’m reading / understanding from your statement is that the millions of people sending E-mail, writing documents, and managing spreasheets using web based applications aren’t doing “real” work as well?
Not arguing, just desperately struggling to understand where you’re coming from and what you’re trying to say in concrete terms.
I keep hearing this, and I KNOW it’s true at the enterprise level, but I’ve been running my home LAN IPv6 native for the last - 6+ years? Ever since I learned Comcat would vend it to you from their stock router.
Works great. No problems. Didn’t used to be that way, but these days most (more?) of the stack bugs have been shaken out.
Just here to say thank goodness for the EFF. I support them, and if you live a cushy life like I do and have the money, you should too.
I looked at their site and thought: What a #!@$ stupid idea.
The whole thing stinks of Twitter brain. “Follow topics, not people”? So what you’re saying is that the null brains on Twitter are far too focused on whenever one of the Kardassians farts to focus on anything real?
Puhh-lease. The Fediverse isn’t about that all.
Hard pass.
I don’t love this question.
I spent a huge chunk of my life putting so much focus into being “nice” that some friends sremovedd about me being “a doormat”.
Also? The word “nice” has so many soft negative connotations in 2024.
Subtext: if you’re “nice” you’re fundamentally un-interesting Subtext: if you’re “nice” you’re a push over and ripe to be taken advantage of.
GOOD person? MORAL person? OK.
Nice? Asking anyone to attribute this to themselves is a foot gun.
I would spend more time doing charity work and contributing to open source.
I already volunteer for a reproductive justice charity, and I would LOVE to devote more time to making the Linux desktop more accessible for visually impaired folks like me.
I won’t moralize because that never stopped anyone from doing anything, ever :)
What I will say is, with the vastness of the internet available to me, I would not personally choose to sift through the reams of malice and hate to find the useful grains that no doubt exist, buried.
Plenty of other permissive fora where even somewhat radical ideas can be expressed but without the embrace of genocide, Neo-Nazism and rape.
Convos - self hosted web based client written in Perl of all things, because it’s small, simple, does exactly what I want and no more, and avoids my having to faff with client + bouncer which was getting old 10 years ago and feels positively withering now.
Yes TheLounge is fantastic but I switched to Convos these days because it’s lighter weight and I somehow manage to overrun my disk much less often :)
Good choices!
The original Thief is such an incredibly atmospheric experience. Nothing quite like slinking around in the shadows watching that visibility meter…
If I had a #11 I’d have listed Halo3. GREAT game :)
Post pandemic, this kind of ID “verification” is SUPER bogus, but it’s quite common unfortunately, and, tbh, I can’t think of a better way to handle it that isn’t either in person or via snail mail.
Not great for sure, but most likely not racist, or at least not purposefully so (not that that matters).
