       @sabmes @grote Alpha means it has not yet reached beta.Software lifecycle path: pre-alpha -> alpha -> beta -> release candidate -> stable.

       @itsfoss Nice. I assume once it's actually used, it will mean a performance boost over extensions like uBlock Origin.What I don't understand though, is how many anti-fans Mozilla has. Every time they announce anything, comments are full of FUD.

       @davidrevoy There's a classic TES solution: enter stealth mode, put the dagger in his inventory and take the gold back.

       @itsfoss Lack of 2FA is the real news here.

       @itsfoss I wonder if Pijul handles big binaries well?

       @itsfoss When using Arch, you have to pay attention and remove unused packages. It's not rare that a package stops being required and gets moved to AUR. Don't build it from AUR then, just remove it.

       @davidrevoy First of all, you need to contact The Linux Foundation, otherwise they will not realise you are upset at them.Second, Linux and TLF are two different things and likely only the former cares about your tablet driver contributions unless the manufacturer of those tablets is a TLF member.Third, I suspect this is a result of one employee's decision because likely TLF does not have any internal AI use guidelines. That brings us back to the first point. Complain to them.

       @eff Interesting, but the main points against ZKPs could be clearer.Just to make sure: the main downsides are centralisation and expected shittiness of underlying software, right? With more issues stemming from those two root causes.Did I get it right?

       @eff Send DMCA takedown spam claiming Trump's tweets infringe on your copyright and the courts will change their tune very quickly.

       @itsfoss Good. At the same time, people should move away from Twitter.

       @itsfoss Rust is better than C, but I don't like that uutils are under MIT rather than GPL.

       @itsfoss STT models are useful on a phone, so you can dictate without sending your speech to Google or other online services.

       @davidrevoy @TopazRabbit This is the case in many disciplines: making adjustments and fixing issues early is cheap, but fixing them late is very expensive.

       @itsfoss Reportedly regular Google engineers were happy to cooperate with GrapheneOS, but higher-ups at Google decided to be assholes.But withholding fixes for known security issues goes beyond being an asshole. It impacts the security of millions of devices.

       @davidrevoy @oddhack @DrJLecter Alcohol is a poor disinfectant for wounds. Better than nothing of course, but it's best to use modern antiseptics, like the mix of octenidine dihydrochloride and phenoxyethanol, which is sold under brand names like Octenisept, Oktaseptal, Help4Skin SEPTI-SPRAY, etc.
