I've closely been following Mobile Firefox development over the past year - this browser is dead, like totally dead. Bug reports pile up, nothing is really fixed, a ton of commits about telemetry…

Almost three dozen authors, yeah, for "beginners" :-)

What's bad about that exactly? I like the badge actually. Looks nice and warm.

A long time ago. Sourceforge has been more or less abandoned/forgotten for the past five years. Some projects continue to stick to it though due to inertia and laziness.

Plus a million.

To fuck with karma, I'll tell you what, this is the wrong story, the wrong conclusions, the wrong pretty much everything with our society. In most cultures people are raised such a way, the naked…

> AMD is paying a smaller price; they still had some mitigations to do, but they didn't let speculative memory accesses bypass access control, IIRC, so there's less speculation to turn of…

This guy definitely deserves a Wikipedia article.

The website has been updated and permissions are now hidden everywhere. WTF are you doing Google??

I'm using VPN 99.9% of the time, so it's all the same for me. The perks of living in a authoritarian state which tries to limit your access to the Internet.

Windows XP, Vista and 7 were the most beautiful operating systems ever. Since 7 we've had what could only be described as horrendously unusable and ugly.

> When was the last time you used Linux? $ lsb_release -a LSB Version: :core-4.1-amd64:core-4.1-noarch Distributor ID: Fedora Description: Fedora release 35 (Thirty Five) Release: 35 …

I can imagine the script they've created removes certain DLLs/EXEs (and disables Windows Updates - which is a red bloody flag) but there are numerous ways in which this can break Windows dow…

> Windows 7 is becoming very outdated, both in usability and security. Usability? What's wrong with its usability? There have been a lot of BS claims in this topic but this one looks the most …

I've no idea what this crap is doing here. It's also warez and no one but microsoft can distribute Windows ISO images.

And precisely for that reason many companies nowadays don't allow to edit/modify certain fields unless you request support and provide a proof of your identity.

It's almost never been about growth. Actually deleting accounts means you're losing very valuable information about [past] customers, their behavior, geo, etc. Also some people may suddenly …

I've worked for several companies and let me tell you the truth: * accounts are never deleted, period * At most there's a column in the table which specifies whether the account is alive or …

This has been my pet peeve for ages. Google ignores the Accept-Language header on pretty much all of its websites and uses your location instead. And I fucking hate them for that.

> and even if it was, it would be on a tiny fraction of running devices right now. That's correct and I misjudged the situation. Sorry!

You're right, I though kernel 5.8 is a lot older than it actually is. I've edited my post. Sorry!

This if f*cking scary. Such a simple code, so dangerous and it works. You can trivially add an extra root user via /etc/{passwd|shadow}. There are tons of options how to p0wn a system. Pleas…

I've been saying this for years. Whoever came up with the idea that passwords need to be regularly changed must be shot because no one has ever proved it makes any sense. What it actually does is…

I've got six google accounts and never seen this message while connecting from my normal IP address or a random VPN provider (so hundreds of users sharing the same IP address). I presume somethin…
