I think it’s the direct mention of the user that the c/technology mods didn’t like, which I can understand. You might be better off removing it from your comment.

I don’t have a vendetta. I’m entirely ignorant of the context you’re describing. I got blanket banned from a series of communities by aforementioned user for (presumably) downvoting. I’m not really very interested in continuing this.

why are you even going on about it a month later to shit talk the user?

Why did I mention something relevant to the conversation? That’s your question?

I have no idea what you’re talking about.

There are plenty of ways to frame fascism – just compare 1930s Italy and Germany to find sticking points – so we don’t really have a definition everyone agrees upon. I think one can argue that Iran has plenty of the hallmarks:

• ✓ A leader with virtually unchecked power (until Feb 28th).
• ✓ A state with overbearing control over citizens.
• ✓ A state that directly opposes cultural and political liberalism.
• ✓ Suppression of political dissent.
• ✓ An exclusivist cultural identity.

Fuck Brendan Eich, but he’s not been involved with Mozilla for 12 years, and JavaScript is open-source. There’s no reason to boycott either because of Eich.

Oh, I was just making a cheap joke. I used Telegram for a while for a specific group, and in that time I was inundated with catfishing bot messages. The joke was that that’s the purpose of Telegram and if you’re doing any else on it, you’re misusing it.

It was a very funny joke.

They’ve done a really amazing job of convincing the world that this is an encrypted messaging app.

This is a play on people’s naivety. It is an encrypted messaging app in as much as regular messages are encrypted between the client and the server. It’s just that this achieves nothing for the user in terms of privacy unless you can both completely trust the provider (you shouldn’t) and be confident that the back-end can’t be compromised (you can’t).

They do also have “secret chats” that are apparently E2E encrypted, but you’d be mad at this point to give them the benefit of the doubt without at least looking at independent security audits of the client.

Were you using it to catfish strangers via DM? If you weren’t, maybe they banned you for misuse of the platform.

It’s also Microsoft’s get-out-of-jail-free card here; someone else ripped the ebooks, processed them, and uploaded them under a CC0 Public Domain license. “How were we meant to know the release wasn’t authorized?”

If you’re using KDE, apparently changing your system application style might help - Breeze, for example, has an option for visible scroll arrows. Link.

In any case, it’s a GTK thing, not a LibreOffice thing.

This strikes me as an odd comment. Did you have a specific reason to expect that 26.2 would include this, such as an enhancement request that you’d logged (or had been following) via their community channels?

Also, I’m curious about the UI refinement.

In the release notes you’ve linked, there’s a heading called User Interface. It’s a fair number of small QOL improvements.

Is this not just AFU? If so, the effect for a physical user is the same (needs the passkey), but encryption keys are still loaded.

As I understand it, if any seller is using Amazon fulfillment centers, the product you’re given is picked out of the same box regardless of the named seller. That makes it impossible to buy confidently from Amazon based on the reputation of the seller, and makes Amazon themselves an unreputable seller.

Seems a little redundant when the article we’re all commenting on does precisely that.

I guess there’s both “blend” in the traditional sense of mixing varietals from grapes you grew or sources you trust to create more balanced or complex wine, and “blend” in the sense of chucking in whatever grapes you were able to source cheap, from any climate and terroir and growing technique.

“You fell for a phishing scam and hadn’t enabled two-factor authentication” is more likely, followed closely by “You used the same password for another service/platform that got compromised”.

Microsoft are being unhelpful here and deserve to be criticised, but the fault for the “hack” is almost certainly the responsibility of the user.
