Android 16 brings that desktop functionality


I’ve noticed Mullvad advertising a lot in London on billboards, tube station platforms and sides of buses. Not saying it’s a bad thing just that I noticed it, they must have really ramped up spending on marketing.
Probably in response to UK’s Online Safety Act


The Ninth


Whether you like it or not, some people want AI features and Firefox isn’t in a position to snub their users. At least they give you a choice of enabling/disabling that functionality


Excuse me, this is the internet. Nuance isn’t allowed here


I wouldn’t really call this a “report” when there aren’t any metrics in the reasoning other than price.
Even in their own article, it mentions how support and updates vary by manufacturer so it’s kind of meaningless to compare iPhone to the whole Android ecosystem. You’d need to choose one or more manufacturer in order to make an apples to apples comparison.


You are completely right.
I do also get why the run these commands is a thing, because it’s usually faster and also is distro / desktop environment agnostic.
Why would someone want to write separate guides for Gnome, KDE, Cinnamon etc. when one or two commands will suffice? But on the flip side, my family and friends will see a scary looking command and immediately be put off.
I feel it’s getting a lot better since more apps are just in the browser or electron apps, there’s way way less to actually configure for most end users. The type of people put off by commands generally won’t go digging through the settings anyway.
I do wish there were a proper GUI for configuring GRUB though. Any that I’ve ever found seemed to fall out of date very quickly.
Whaat? This is the first I’m hearing. Snap bad because proprietary.
Are there any good standalone pkg formats?


I feel like a lot of my European (EU citizen) friends are commentating from some high horse but in reality I feel European lawmakers are just watching how this plays out before deciding to follow suit.
In my client, it opens as a page in an embedded browser instead of just opening the community
There is the Nvidia X Server Settings app but it’s pretty barebones
Because the Firefox looking glass fiasco wasn’t close to the same level and they immediately responded to criticism on the issue.
Meanwhile there is a pattern of behaviour like this from Brave.


Thanks for this


It does often feel like as soon as a significant hurdle is overcome, the industry just makes another one.
Hopefully SteamOS/Steam on Linux gets enough traction to force publishers to reconsider.


It would be six days at max, assuming they managed to steal the certificate immediately after it was issued, otherwise it’s gonna be even less.
Having the certificate doesn’t automatically mean you can change the site, if you have control of the site hosting you likely wouldn’t need to steal the cert anyway.
Stealing the certificate would allow you to run a man in the middle type attack but that’s inevitably going to be very limited in scope. The shorter time limit on the cert reduces that scope even further, which is great.
Since most Let’s Encrypt certs will have an automated renewal process this doesn’t even really change the overhead of setup so I think this move makes a lot of sense.
There are other things certificates can be used for as well of course but I’m just going off your example.
There’s really a lot of good value devices out there once you get past the barely functional underpowered cheapo range.
Also though… you spent $250 on a phone just while waiting for your main phone to be repaired?
Yeah same, I remember initially feeling the Outlook integration was extremely clunky, for example, but there’s a big simplicity to being able to grab a recurring meeting link and then just attach it to any meeting regardless of whether it’s rescheduled or has an unusual pattern.
Teams is much more annoying in this regard since it pretty much requires calendar integration for the meeting to work. Trying to set up any new meeting regenerates the meeting link, and it’s maddening. Like just let these two things not be connected if I want.


That’s not the reason lmao, also it was a return flight in the opposite direction so the US would be the “destination”
Your critique makes no sense
you can use contactless payment with Curve Pay
Banking app probably depends on the app
