Yeah, Google tends to send a lot of junk back.

They're prompts you get when you have three Teams tabs open at the same time. When you click them, it refreshes the current tab. Kicked me out of calls a couple of times.

IMHO Teams isn't as good as they make out. Firstly, you have the constant stream of 'Are you there?' popups which kick you out of calls, alongside the blocking modals which stop you from editing documents. Moreover, the UI is

I'm not really talking about this from an a11y standpoint, but audio CAPTCHA's are so much easier than "choose the fire hydrant" hell. I actually remember reading a post saying that an accessible CAPTCHA is hard . To ma

I chose to highlight the Chinese aspect, but you're absolutely right: any keyboard with personalisation puts Signal users at risk.

I think the word 'track' is misleading in this context. The proposal outlines various methods to detect the use of a third-party keyboard, whereas the term 'track' commonly denotes corporate surveillance. They could do t

$100 is very expensive compared to the other platforms. These licensing fees destroy the majority of open-source projects geared around said platforms, sadly.

IIRC if you disable POST requests, Chromium should show the searX instance in the Search Engines settings menu.

I'm personally worried Signal will suffer the same fate. It's heavily trusted in its current state, but it could, in time, turn into a Silicon Valley "product" (and so will we). eye roll .

Your data isn't even in the picture. We are simply not interested in any of it. My gosh, how the tide can turn. https://write.privacytools.io/right-to-privacy/getting-whats... WhatsApp now collects:

Oh damn, didn't realise it was a dupe. It must be really good then :-)

I'm confused. Where does it mention those companies?

You make it mean something. You can help others, find your passion, support your family, or create your own family. Life does not have to be meaningless, it's all up to you :-)

That'd probably make the problem worse, by encouraging developers to force JavaScript to see the page. Nevertheless, it probably can't get worse than it is now. You'd be surprised how many times I've seen websites which

The only thing worrying me is that none of this seems to be scoped, so it'll probably clash with other external libraries using the same class names. Am I understanding this correctly?

Well, Vista has a lot more blue in it. Plus it has that sweet dark black taskbar.

Looks great. That being said, a lot of the open-source Flash runtimes I've seen have been left to rot. I'm hoping this doesn't go down the same path, because it's a very good idea.
