That programmer has obviously been playing https://neal.fun/password-game/
Do you have evidence of that? That's not what I saw: https://www.gimp.org/docs/userfaq.html#i-dont-like-the-name-gimp-will-you-change-it
I don’t like the name GIMP. Will you change it?
With all due respect, no. We’ve been using the name GIMP for more than 20 years and it’s widely known. The name was originally (and remains) an acronym; although the word “gimp” can be used offensively in some cultures, that is not our intent. On top of that, we feel that in the long run, sterilization of language will do more harm than good. GIMP has been quite popular for a long time in search engine results compared to the use of the word “gimp”. So we think we are on the right track to make a positive change and make “gimp” something people actually feel good about. Especially if we add all the features we’ve been meaning to implement and fix the user interface. Finally, if you still have strong feelings about the name “GIMP”, you should feel free to promote the use of the long form GNU Image Manipulation Program or exercise your software freedom to fork and rebrand GIMP.
It's about the journey not the destination.
Threads integrating with Mastodon is bad news. Flipboard integrating with Mastodon? Interesting I guess? Hampers Meta's 4E strategy I suppose.
Gotta love the heavy use of buzzword technologies and no actual information on what is actual is. Then you click the "How does it work?" button and it takes you to a Google powerpoint... so much for the sleek website design.
It's all good just make sure you have an up-to-date ublock-based extension: https://reddit.com/r/uBlockOrigin/comments/17j6ygs/youtube_antiadblock_and_ads_october_29_2023_mega/
As of writing this Adblock Plus isn't working with Youtube but no reason you should be using that over ublock origin anyways.
This is what happens when you patent software, folks. You die. Let this be a lesson.
And the site's dark mode is fantastic...
Have you tried Immich? It has a very similar feel to Google Photos but with the advantage of owning your storage.
problem is the late stages of the game the password requirements change when your password's emojis start catching fire.
