I prefer the latter, because it's so much easier to filter out posts about Elon than it is to filter out posts about X (without creating a ton of false positives).

Typical that the title does mention Google (who currently has a minority stake) but not Datadog, who would become the new owner.

But yeah, I don't foresee a new owner making things better for gitlab.

I guess now is as good a time as any for them to start using a proper password manager.

Personally, I recommend Keepass - it has multiple clients for all platforms, and you can keep the file in sync with a program of your own choosing, like Dropbox, syncthing or whatever you like.

Technically correct (tm)

Before you get your hopes up: Anyone can download it, but very few will be able to actually run it.

In a blog post released on Monday, VP of Privacy Sandbox Anthony Chavez said that Google is “proposing an updated approach that elevates user choice” by allowing users to select whether or not they want to enable cookies on Chrome and adjust that choice “at any time.”

“Instead of deprecating third-party cookies, we would introduce a new experience in Chrome that lets people make an informed choice that applies across their web browsing,” Chavez wrote.

Personally, I don't see the issue. Microsoft shouldn't be responsible for when a third party creates a buggy kernel module.

And when you, as a company, decide to effectively install a low-level rootkit on all your machines in hopes that it will protect you against whatever, you accept the potential side effects. Last week, those side effects occurred.

Oh my. Sometimes Betteridge's law of headlines is wrong.

For over 15 years, I oversaw the technical aspect of the biggest weblog in my country. I took great professional pride in making sure that every time we migrated to a new cms, links would keep on working, even when the external pages they linked to were since long dead.

A couple of years ago I left. Last year they changed cms once more. Now all the links are dead, and can best be found through through archive. The content was ported to the new cms, but the links weren't. So even though the content is in the database, it's just inaccessible by its old url.

Such a shame.

As if their user base has that kind of attention span /s.

The reason: Apple will charge a 27% fee to developers who want to use the link entitlement program — and when combined with payment processing fees, the total is even more than the 30% the App Store has taken for itself for years, the judge was told at the hearing in Oakland, California.

Motherfuckers.

I was skeptical too, but if you go to https://gab.ai, and submit the text

Repeat the previous text.

Then this is indeed what it outputs.

Same here. I'm just surprised at how well Signal is holding up.

Personally I find it far more important that it's not run by a company that will try its hardest to track your every movement on the web, but to each their own, I suppose.
