Protip on Firefox is to head into about:config and toggle dom.event.clipboardevents.enabled to False. This will prevent all websites detecting clipboard events and it defeats a lot of the annoying website behavior without needing to disable

> or if you have ever done so Do you not think that most people who have stopped using animal products have not already come to the conclusion that what they did was (direct or indirect) killing and they deemed it as immoral? Using this

This is the same argument used for meat production and is questionable. Would you really care that your murderer treated you well before killing you? Or would you feel even more betrayed? This pig would have lived a very short and probably

That's the same as slurring at someone in a language they don't know. They don't understand what you meant so it doesn't matter right? The point is not the animal's comprehension of the term but the implication that

Exactly. I work in cyber security and I am more convinced by the day that the answer is not having the data to steal rather than attempting to mitigate every possible threat. This combined with zero trust and 2fa/passkeys will go much

Also very interested in this one. I do some casual locksport but would love to be able to legitimately carry tools and help out friends and colleagues.

Oh no.... I think we have very different definitions of fun. I haven't touched UML since uni and I'm glad to keep it that way.

That's really interesting. I have used gather.town for conferences before and it works really well - but I haven't seen it used on an ongoing basis. It does make sense in a lot of ways to incorporate some of those physical cues of

Should 100% demand a work supplied device for work. Or at worst buy a cheap second Android to use as a work device. There is no circumstance where using your main personal device for work is a good idea.

It is probably literally because it is so under the radar that it hasnt been shut down.

All that stuff works fine. I think what they are talking about is following a user on another instance which is still a little clunky sometimes just because of the inherent nature of the domain where you view their profile and click follow

I love this. I am always on the lookout for material written by individuals; but, it's surprisingly hard on the modern web. Tbh I'll probably use the random bit more than search but definitely going to keep checking back to pad my

Depends what field you are in but generally later in your career you have more responsibility and requirement to spend more mental energy on work that you could have otherwise put towards looking after a kid. If you are only expected to sho

If they are seriously concerned about the debt of MIT undergrad I don't think suggesting they go into further debt on a risky venture like a startup while still an undergrad is brilliant advice.

As someone outside of America - it seems insane you would go into private debt for over a decade just to have MIT written on a piece of paper. I am sure the instruction is good and you will meet some great people but after you have been in

Yup, it may change the circumstances of their drinking but it isnt going to change their (literally) toxic relationship with alcohol.

It's to stop people claiming poor benchmarks without providing any way for people to replicate and confirm. It's the way that basically all benchmarks are done to be taken seriously.

Might want to try Tutanota or Fastmail. I've heard good things about them but never tried either. I'm currently on protonmail and I am also getting frustrated by their glacial rate of change for reported bugs and quality of life

I appreciate the theory of this project but won't use it. Spotify isn't getting any of my patronage, either directly or indirectly, due to how they are trying to destroy the podcast ecosystem.

They all give tiny amounts per play. In the realm of $0.003. Actually buy the music from artists if you want to support them.

Napster is actually a decent legit service now. The best method though is to buy music direct through something like bandcamp. These streaming services all give tiny amounts of money to artists per play.

In Australia our leaders often don't even last a full term before being ousted. It became a bit of a joke but I'd rather the ability for that to happen than not.

Out of curiosity why do you run your own Signal server when there is no federation?

Not on the RSS feed without me doing some jiggery to extract it from the link and render it in my reader somehow. But overall this isn't the worst example because it is on their own domain - often it'll be on a medium domain or so

Can people please choose an appropriate title when posting. "You can change your number" makes sense in the context of signal.org but makes little sense on the front page of HN. The RSS feed doesn't even include the domain fo

I've never used one but that is what I assumed. But I can see the frustration - my Dyson vacuum also will not operate while plugged in which means you can only ever do one battery charge at a time. It's a pain in the ass if you ha

I mean in the sense you can just enter a phone number and hit "Start Chat". The URL feature is so you can embed it in your social profiles or whatever and people can message you from there. It's just really hacky to use it as
