This article could also be titled 'The Case for Limiting cautious about software you execute' and with a few tweaks in text could support the below sentence. "If you go to a bad website, it might cause bad things" is ~=~

I have, but I've not been able to VNC over them. I've made sure the FW rules let tailscale do anything and have even tried turning both firewalls off entirely but at least for TightVNC it doesn't like it, nor RDP (RDP enabled

OK it defaulted to UDP, got nothing, changed to TCP, got nothing. Will change it back and try again. I will also double check the port number.

TL;DR: Should I keep fussing with PiVPN or try something like TincVPN? Semi-OT: So I just installed PiVPN to use with this protocol to try and do a small vpn at home (all I want is to go to my domain, auth, and be on my LAN so I can RDP &#x

All true points, but I'd rather risk being tracked by a company that would be completely cratered even more than they've already been by being bought by Privacy One than just go straight to the devil himself, so I use the !s and j

Is it OS and SDK bloat? Where do you think most of the cruft is coming from? Let's say I had a given LOB application written in vb6, c#.net winforms, heck, maybe even WPF. All single-threaded. If I re-wrote the same application (featur

Maybe - but why not indicate clear password length requirements on the password entry screen and/or have the PWE text input HTML form only accept password characters up to that max length? Additionally, silent trucation and 'maybe

TransUnion does plaintext passwords. Found that out when I typed in a (example) 25 character password, but at some point the field was truncated down and I somehow figured out that if I backspace IIRC 4 characters away, my saved password wo

No kidding. Already, I've found some interesting articles to read. I'm taking a look at https://dwheeler.com/essays/easy-cross-platform-gui.html , which has references to XULRunner etc. which since 2009 have f

OWS is working on foundations to allow people to use usernames and link them with FCM / push notifications without the central signal server being any wiser than currently with just phone numbers. My hope is to be able to add ephemeral

Reminds me of being a first time user trying to get out of VIM while following a tutorial. How frustrating it was then! If you have flailed around and messed with a file because when you type, it ignores your input until you use the 'i

In your opinion, is that viewpoint shared by a plurality or majority of what we can loosely define as the feminist crowd and adherents? Admittedly, I don't have a big world-shattering new point to add or logical argument to segue to ba

I agree with you 100% and will amplify your comment with one of my own. I suspect this won't be immediately possible as I'm not certain what languages OP is allowed to use, but if OP has some wiggle room in what PL to use, then I

I have also hopped to Qwant / DDG for their proxied Bing search. Keeping that in mind, doing a !s bang is probably better privacy-wise (bonus - you get the same results) vs a !g bang, even if it is no longer as good as it was.

I own zero Apple products so am not the customer for this, but I do like being able to support people, not a faceless corporation. That said, I swapped to Mullvad VPN recently due to the Private Internet Access controversy.

It's probably the HN filter bubble, but I feel similarly. I am excited about the return of 'dead' formats like landscape slider Android phones (Fxtec Pro1) or 'open source' hardware (PineBook/Phone/Time),

YMMV but at least here in the southeast USA, the default GSTV signal can be turned off by pressing a combination on the 4 soft touch keys on the outside of the screen. If your buttons are like so, 1 | CONTENT | 5 2 | CONTENT | 6 3 | CONTENT
