Microsoft’s idea of a standard is a unicorn

Love it! Thanks for sharing!

That’s a cute gimmick! Love it!! 😍

Wow, it’s a whole new level of f*cked up when Zuck collects more data than the Winnie the Pooh (DeepSeek). 😳

Well that explains a lot… 🤦🏻‍♂️

Yup, good point. One can run a private instance for “selfish” reasons.

Get a free VPS from Oracle cloud in whatever region you want, run Wireguard on it. There, now you have a VPN that you control, and since it’s hosted by Oracle, and not a VPN company, there’s no way to “detect” it.

Soon they’re gonna start using Widevine DRM to encrypt the Javascript required to access the search results. 🤦🏻‍♂️

The term “Nazi” has been overused so much, especially in US [identity] politics, that it’s losing (or has already lost) its meaning. When are we going to start calling elevator farts “genocide” and “nazism”? 🤷🏻‍♂️

If the outrage is based on the screenshot of the comment above, I’d say that this is a typical example of “Swiss neutrality” with a touch of “I don’t give a flying f*ck about US politics because I don’t live in the US.” I don’t see how that makes you a nazi??

I suspect I may be missing something here…

Make a plain text file under Apache somewhere with .php extension and stick the following into it:

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

Ctrl+F the word “memory” and see if anything looks off.

Well, they forked wireguard go… I say their seriousness will depend on:

• how well they maintain their fork
• whether or not they continue to offer their self-hosted tier

I’ve been burned too many times by startups who gathered up some initial money from investors and then went all corpo once the money dried up.

The only way to combat this is to vote the assholes out at the end of their term.

Extreme leftists are getting a little too comfortable all over the world it seems.

400ppm? That’s pretty hard water. Your espressos must taste awful. 😣

If you’re that worried, why not run chmod -R u+w .git inside the project dir to “un write-protect” the files, then just ascend to the directory containing the project dir (cd …) and use rm -r without -f?

The force flag (-f) is the scary one, I presume?

Wow, beautiful analogy! I’m going to use that in my professional career if you don’t mind. Also with your permission I’d like to give you credit with a link to this comment, if that’s OK with you, of course.

I wonder if this has anything to do with Apple’s CSAM scanning. You know, hang on to the photos as evidence, and, for an added bonus, sell more iCloud storage because the “System Data” now exceeds the free iCloud data storage quota. Win-win!

If it is indeed a boneheaded mistake, then it’s probably because of over reliance on RPC-type calls from the front-end that displays the data, to the back-end that actually handles the data. User deletes photo, and the front-end, instead of actually deleting it, tells the backend to do it… and then hides the photo from view, maybe updates its index of photos marking them as “deleted” regardless of whether the backend actually deleted the photo.

Then an OS update comes along, and rescans the filesystem, and report a bunch of new photos to the front-end, that then happily add them to the GUI to the user’s surprise.

Modern APIs and software architectures are a bloated, unnecessarily complex mess, and this is the result.

The ability to walk at 40km/h speeds.

Wasn’t Google Plus used to be called Circles? Man, I feel old!

At work, if you have the option, consider using KeePassXC or similar software. That will give you a properly encrypted file with secrets and also password-manager features.
