About 1password publishing their pentesting results. Why put it behind a ‘give me your email address’ wall?
That alone is enough for me to instantly disregard them as an option.

Thanks so much.

Sounds like a plan. What do you think Mr. Altman?

Yes Mr. Musk.
- Comment on BMW’s Newest “Innovation” is a Logo-Shaped Middle Finger to Right to Repair 3 days ago:
In my head that sounds like what they actually want to be called, not what they are. I’m pretty sure those drivers actually want to come across as arrogant.
- Comment on BMW’s Newest “Innovation” is a Logo-Shaped Middle Finger to Right to Repair 3 days ago:
BMW drivers have this fame of being douchebags (most absolutely are) , which makes me wonder, how the hell do we describe Tesla drivers then?

It’ll be hard to burn through the remaining funds of unlimited funds. But I hope it happens.

No biggie. In less than a week we’ll have thousands of Chinese Amazon sellers providing these tools to everyone for lose to.

‘Arse’ technica 🤣🤣🤣

Could you please share that blocklist? Anything that can slow down Ai slop is a win in my opinion.

Voyager on Android as well. It MUST be intentional. No?
- Comment on HelixNotes - a local-first markdown note-taking app (Rust + Tauri, AGPL-3.0) 3 days ago:
Isn’t this basically just an Obsidian replacement then? I haven’t tried it, but reading the info in Codeberg does point to that.
- Comment on OpenAI has deleted the word ‘safely’ from its mission – and its new structure is a test for whether AI serves society or shareholders 3 days ago:
What is there to test? The answer to this is so clear that just asking that question seems pretty dumb to me.

- Comment on Nvidia might not have any new gaming GPUs in 2026 — and could be 'slashing production' of existing GeForce models 1 week ago:
I have a somewhat old Gazelle 16 with an 11th Gen i7 and a 3050TI. My PC is a MinisForum miniPC, pretty good for what I need, but nowhere near as powerful as my laptop.
- Comment on Nvidia might not have any new gaming GPUs in 2026 — and could be 'slashing production' of existing GeForce models 1 week ago:
Thanks. I’ll check them out. But I was actually referring to discreet GPUs. I think I’ve never seen an AMD laptop GPU before.
- Comment on VLAN’s and Subnets For Home Networks 1 week ago:
Thanks so much. I’ll start here. I really appreciate this.
- Comment on VLAN’s and Subnets For Home Networks 1 week ago:
I’ve been trying to get my Unifi infrastructure force IPv6 addresses to all my devices at home (mainly laptops, PCs, phones and tablets, potentially media devices as well), but it has proven a huge challenge for me because of my ignorance on IPv6 and how it differs from v4.
For the time being, I have disabled everything v6 in my network, including my ISP provided ONT, but that leaves me with only the option of a commercial VPN when I’m not at home to try and block as much as possible (together with NextDNS for some added blocks).
I know I’m currently open on that front, and would love it if someone could tell me where I can go to try and understand v6 so that I can then make an informed implementation across the board.
Thank you beforehand.

Because I travel a lot for work. My PC is way less powerful than my current laptop precisely because I spend more time in the road.
- Comment on Razer account “Human Verification” promotes World ID biometric verification 1 week ago:
I’m not a fan of the bullshit they try to push every now and then, but the reality is that, at least for my use, all Linux based, for work and entertainment, Logitech has the best mouse out there (at least that I’m aware of) with the MX Master 3 (haven’t tried the 4). The way I can scroll down large pages and spreadsheets and the side-scrolling wheel alone make it worth dropping my values and giving them money.
Now, if anyone has an alternative that meets the specs of that mouse from a brand with better values than Logitech (which should be pretty much any brand, lol), I would really like to know about it. I’d rather support a more customer-centric company, but not at the expense of having a worse experience.
- Comment on What's your opinion on Ubiquiti/Unifi gear? 1 week ago:
I have a ICG-Ultra driven network infrastructure with 3 switches and 7 APs at home. I wouldn’t use their NAS options though. For NAS I just have 20TB of spinning disks sitting there attached to my ProxMox for all my data, and have all services in VMs or LXCs. I set up an UnRaid (before it was a subscription) in my brother’s house to backup off-site and sync it once per week.
- Comment on Nvidia might not have any new gaming GPUs in 2026 — and could be 'slashing production' of existing GeForce models 1 week ago:
This is still a pain point for me. I have been looking for a laptop with an AMD GPU for years to use with Linux, but System76, Starlabs, framework, etc insist on only having Nvidia as a discreet option. Or is it that AMD does not have laptop GPUs? Could be.
- Comment on Nvidia might not have any new gaming GPUs in 2026 — and could be 'slashing production' of existing GeForce models 1 week ago:
That’s a fact. PC gaming vs consoles is to gaming as Linux vs Winblows is to Computers. It’s a weird world we’re living in.
- Comment on The new Microsoft copilot key is impossible to properly remap. 1 week ago:
Yup, they’re ‘frikkin’ amazing at locking you in. Microslop is just chasing that with OEMs, and doing a great fucking job too.
Now, is this every single make of laptop out there allowing this at the hardware level? How are they doing it? MoBo firmware? BIOS?
- Comment on Flock CEO calls Deflock a “terrorist organization” 1 week ago:
Can someone explain how this makes any sense? They were ordered legally to deactivate and remove, unilaterally decide to put them back up and reactivate, the authorities (whomever those are) resort to covering them instead of removing and destroying them because “removing them is illegal”?
What the actual fuck is this?
- Comment on Ad blocking is alive and well, despite Chrome's attempts to make it harder 1 week ago:
Depends on your implementation. It does need some tweaking and using the logs to add more crap to the block list.
- Comment on Ad blocking is alive and well, despite Chrome's attempts to make it harder 1 week ago:
This is the solution. I’ve been using it for a couple of years, no ads, and almost no segways either.
