This article is not about Covid not being a threat, it's about people not knowing who to trust in a rapidly changing world with multiple actors with conflicting goals. "Politicians lie to achieve their goals" This is hardly n

This. Lots of SAML libraries don't fully implement the spec but I second what parent says. It does well for federation attributes.

Try scrolling. It's right below the fold: monocles - search engine ocean - data sync (hosted nextcloud) email - (literally the name of the service) chat - (same) confer - video conferencing

Don't have time to compare them now but I've been looking at flagr. This seems more polished.

Try Infomaniak ( https://www.infomaniak.com/en/hosting/web-and-mail/mail-host... ). I've been using them for years. Solid platform, not 5-eyes, good webmail experience, cheaper than fastmail.

Don't just look at salary, compare against cost-of-living. There are gaps, I'm not denying that. It's just not as large as is looks on paper.

Keep in mind that many other countries have socialized medicine and a better nationalized retirement program. We pay for those and, because of our system, they are very expensive.

I'm glad to see this. I hope they can get the TTS to sound more conversational and less like a newscaster...that being said...free is nice.

There have been a lot of remailers in the past. It's hard for me to see what legitimate purpose this service provides for Mozilla as an organization or for users of the free web. It would be nice to have an account-specific email addre

I was also curious about Parler but, when going to sign up, it asked for my phone number. Ummmm, no thank you. That kind of association is like going to a protest with your cellphone. Pretty easy to get the wrong kind of association attach

Think back to any round of recent protests. People are passionate about their positions...they post about it on their chosen social media platform being completely unaware of the technical consequences. Later on, they "disappear"

Tiktok doesn't require that a user film themselves. If they never appear in frame, there would still be plenty of other data captured from the device to correlate to a specific human.

TikTok has been outed as an app that captures massive amounts of telemetry data that could be used to identify a user after the fact. The data it collects (contact lists) absolutely could be used for targeted oppression.

Handy for a one-off, but it uses regexps which are difficult to get right when you have nested strings (as can be done with template strings).

Shower looks nice but reveal.js has some really great features like a blank screen button and presenter mode with notes a timer and the next slide. You can make reveal.js slides in a gui at slides.io

I think a lot of it comes down to mindshare. Firefox has does some advertisement but what to we call it when we "search the internet"? We "google" something. Google has so much mindshare and they exploit that to push the

This question assumes that Chrome is "better". But what does that mean? Faster? Generally no. Uses less memory? No. The core engine is easier to extend? Perhaps in the webkit days. Chromium ships with the Raspberry Pi but its an o

I just discovered the Pico-8. It has the retro feel but most of all, the games are awesome arcade games. They're fun but you don't feel addicted when you have to walk away from them.

When you write the code, you can do what you want. BigCorp has done a lot of stuff to be angry about. I don't see a problem with the license.

Inrupt has been around for a while. I don't see why people don't just setup webdav and have apps that can use that for data. It's webby! It saves files! Solid could just be a mapping service from username/password to use

Interesting and really cool...but...binary distribution via sourceforge is a no-go for me. Sourceforge has never recovered in my mind from the days of bundling spyware.
