- Comment on ublock Origin can get rid of Cookie Banners 3 hours ago:
I hope, EU legislation will force websites to accept a global “Auto-decline”/“Minimum-possible” configurable in the web browser, in which case no banner can be shown. IMO, that’s how it should have always been.
The banner is a stupid solution. Tracking and ad profiles should be completely banned instead.

Those are perfect reasons to use it.
- Comment on Israel ranks lowest in global brand index 1 week ago:
Every Israeli I have ever talked with is at the top of my list for most racist and awful people I have ever encountered. The delusional and brainwashed bullshit they spout is so awful I try to actively forget it.
- Comment on The dominoes are falling: motherboard sales down 50% as PC enthusiasts are put off by stinking memory prices 1 week ago:

- Comment on Proton launches privacy-first alternative to Excel and Google Sheets 4 weeks ago:
If you use Mullvad you get a token instead of an account. It’s not linked to any email address. You can then pay directly to this token using crypto. You can even send cash in an envelope. If you use Tor to get a token and pay, you’re as private as can be.
The thing however is that VPN providers can always see what IP address is using their service. So however private your account and payment is, in the end you always have to trust the provider that they are not logging IPs.
If you are buying from Mozilla, then both Mozilla and Mullvad get access information. This means that buying from a reseller is less private by default.

- Comment on AI finds errors in 90% of Wikipedia's best articles 4 weeks ago:
The tool doesn’t just check the text for errors it would know of. It can also check sources, compare articles, and find inconsistencies within the article itself.
There’s a list of the problems it found that often explains where it got the correct information from.

- Comment on Self-Hosters Confirm It Again: Linux Dominates the Homelab OS Space 5 weeks ago:
It seems Windows was a bit less than 15% and 61% of those were on Windows Desktop. So I guess those people just used some Windows PC and put it in a closet.
