Change the T to a P then an E, maybe even a Z, and then we’re in the right ballpark.

Mhmm, I’ve only gotten into vt recently, so I don’t know all the big players very well yet, and can only really judge things from a surface level.

Ooh, you’re an aspie! Ganbarre! ^^

I just read Vei’s account of why she left vshoujo, and damn, now I regret giving gunrun any sort of benefit of the doubt. Holy.

I mean, as far as corporate apologies go, it could’ve been way way worse. So often I’ve seen execs blaming everyone but themselves, and completely shirking responsibility.

Still, the whole situation is very disappointing.

I just tried their site in fennec w/ NoScript and only have their main domain whitelisted. That bar appears at the bottom for me. Not sure what’s going on here.

I’m in a country where there’s no legal precedent against torrenting, so it’s somewhat safe, but it’s still better to use one anyways. You never know when the laws might change, and it’s best if there’s no record of your IP/timestamp torrenting.

Either way, there’s a risk-reward tradeoff of not using one, but the risk is much higher in the US, and if you’re made an example of, it could be life ruining. You’ll have to decide for yourself if it’s worth paying to mitigate the risk.

Grats Saba! Now on to 2M!

Just a quick clarification: /*/*/* is not a relative path. The first / references the root directory.

That’s just a cat thing. Some of them are intent on displaying their poopers whenever possible, especially if it’s right in your face.

Damn, I was with you until the unnecessary vegan bashing.

Say it ain’t so

I think VPN is the proper way to go about this, but another method is to do port knocking with fkwnop so your SSH port won’t respond until the host receives a magic packet.

That’s not the only point though. IIRC, they also remove telemetry, and pocket as well as some other things. I personally turn back on persistent sessions and history, but leave all the other privacy features there.

Asides from the kinda-shady crypto stuff and the other things that’ve already been mentioned, just philosophically it should be kinda evident that over-concentration on one corporate controlled rendering engine isn’t a good thing. Google wants the internet to be a walled garden with themselves as the sole decision makers so they can stuff ads down your throat.

Gecko’s web compat is bad largely because of this over-concentration.

That is the default behaviour, but it’s pretty trivial to change. Also, I’d imagine the distro maintainer could choose to change the default settings as part of a post-install script, if they wanted to.

Edit: Not sure why you’re being downvoted, as I do think it’s a valid concern.

While FF’s evil quotient has been on the rise, Brave definitely isn’t a better option. If anything, librewolf is the way to go.

Considering Google’s track record on simplifying UIs by taking away features, I’ll take my chances, and only update for severe threats.

Sadly software updates have turned in to an enshitification vector.

Could someone perhaps explain the major use cases or give a real life example of a time you’ve needed to use awk? I’ve been using Linux casually for quite a long time now, and although I learned the basics of the tool, I can’t recall having ever felt I had a need for it. If I want to glue a bunch of cli stuff together and need to do some text processing, it generally seems like it’d be easier to just use a simple python script.

Is it more for situations that need to be compatible with most *nix systems and you might not necessarily have access to a higher level scripting language?

While I pretty much agree, I can definitely think of a few sporadic times doing sysadmin where things have gone so significantly wrong that an enforced sanity-check on every sudo command would have been appreciated.
