- Comment on Windows 11 Start menu ads are now rolling out to everyone 2 weeks ago:
I meant in a way that most of the people who would actually care to know what an operating system is will be against paying for it.
- Comment on Windows 11 Start menu ads are now rolling out to everyone 2 weeks ago:
37% is very hard to believe with custom built PC. I don’t think more than 90% of all PCs are pirated windows machine. That can’t be. Plently of OEMs and laptops alone will break that number.
- Comment on Windows 11 Start menu ads are now rolling out to everyone 2 weeks ago:
Which is why I specifically mentioned custom built pc
- Comment on Windows 11 Start menu ads are now rolling out to everyone 2 weeks ago:
I came up with that figure knowing that there are much more 3rd world country people who can’t afford proper PC let alone windows license.
Honestly, considering China/India, I think my figure has to go higher than not.

I was aware of forgejo back when I first started hosting Gitea. Didn’t see much of a diff back then so I just went with arguably more popular option at that time.
About few months after it’s mostly just because I’m too lazy of a person.

- Comment on Apple to switch to OLED displays for iPads and MacBooks - Nikkei Asia 4 months ago:
I’m using Galaxy Tab S7+ and it is real nice. I don’t know what people do with their tablet but I never understood why some people say that Android tablet is garbage. I’ve used iPad too and I was very much frusted with their lack of proper file management/closed nature of the OS than lack of some better-polished apps on Android.
- Comment on Four years after Apple, Google will finally kill third-party cookies in 2024 4 months ago:
You’re correct about first-party cookies being from the domain in the address bar, like a.com in your example. When a page from a.com includes a resource from b.com, and b.com sets cookies, those are considered third-party cookies.
In a scenario where you navigate to c.com, which includes a resource (e.g., tracking pixel) from b.com, without third-party cookie protection, b.com would indeed have access to the cookies it set previously while you were on a.com. However, with 3rd party cookie protection measures, the browser restricts this access. This can impact user tracking and privacy.
In the JavaScript world, this is often managed through mechanisms like the SameSite attribute for cookies and technologies like ITP (Intelligent Tracking Prevention) in browsers. Developers need to adapt their code to these privacy measures to ensure compliance and user privacy.
