- Comment on Zen browser had a backdoor enabled by default 2 weeks ago:
Not really an excuse but I expect writing a browser is an extremely intensive project and perhaps they were unprepared.
Navigating any code base that isn’t your own adds it’s own challenge on top.
So at this point I think it’s a “deer in headlights” case with some “head in sand” thrown in.

Took me a few reads to get it

Oh okay, thank you ☺️

I don’t get it
- Comment on France is about to pass the worst surveillance law in the EU. 5 weeks ago:
Although not in the same way, the US is leading the charge on that front.
- Comment on Jellyfin is not just good... but *better* than Plex now?! 1 month ago:
This is more about familiarity than difference in ease of use. I’ve used both, they are both super easy.
- Comment on Leaked chat logs expose inner workings of secretive ransomware group 1 month ago:
Not much information in the article but an interesting read nevertheless. Thanks for sharing.
- Comment on Italy to require VPN and DNS providers to block pirated content 1 month ago:
What nonsense. If I want my origin to tor to start with a VPN then I will and I’ll be more anonymous because of it.
- Comment on Microsoft is cracking down on people upgrading to Windows 11 on unsupported hardware 2 months ago:
How is this cracking down? The article says the documentation for the registry edits have been removed and an automated approach of removing restrictions is now a false positive for windows defender.
I’m assuming the registry edits still work (article doesn’t say) in which case where am I meant to point my outrage?
Now if they block windows 11 from running and the registry entries do nothing, that would be a worthy news article.
- Comment on Dell kills the XPS brand 2 months ago:
That’s a very weird take. I didn’t blanket recommend Dell, but a specific model.
- Comment on Dell kills the XPS brand 2 months ago:
I bought a Precision 5480. Looks like an xps but better. Was so good I bought the 5490 for work a few months later. Would recommend.

I was thinking the same thing. And you got an answer too. Cheers 🥂
- Comment on Sweden, Norway rethink plans for cashless societies over fears that fully digital payment systems would leave them vulnerable to Russian security threats 5 months ago:
Cash is still used a lot. Especially for second hand small purchases. Not everyone wants to do the PayPal dance at a car boot.

Report it lost instead. I’ve lost cards loads of times over the years. One phone call and the new one is on its way. However the fact your bank wouldn’t issue your replacement makes me think they would charge you for this privilege.
- Comment on Nvidia blocks access to video card driver updates for users from Russia and Belarus. 5 months ago:
I think you’re confusing “many” with “most”. The definition of “many” does not mean the largest, just simply large.

What issues did you have?
- Comment on Disposable vapes to be banned in England and Wales from June 5 months ago:
In the same fashion that cigarettes are no longer on display in stores this will absolutely have an effect. The supply chain will eventually evaporate so once stores are out of stock it’ll no longer be common place. Sure, they could be imported but stores that don’t comply won’t be common and will stick out easily.

How is what he said wrong? 25% is “many Russians”.

Please elaborate.
- Comment on A tiny town (Spruce Pine North Carolina) just got slammed by Helene. It could massively disrupt the tech industry 6 months ago:
You are the MVP. Click bait titles need to die.
- Comment on Reddit is making sitewide protests basically impossible 6 months ago:
Aw man. I left Reddit on my own terms as soon as the writing was on the wall re: 3rd party apps.
To have access ripped away without notice must have bred some deep hatred for the platform.
