Avoiding shorts is a feature IMO
I’m not claiming that it was “intuitive”, just that the browser did tell the user exactly what the add-on was allowed to do. Sure, Chrome and Firefox deserve some blame for not making the warning more explicit/dire, but they did make an attempt. Overwriting cookies and rewriting affiliate links are subsets of “access your data”.
Also, I’m not claiming that I knew exactly what Honey was doing, just that I suspected it was shady and recommended no one use it.
It wasn’t “uncovered” though. This is their business model. I’ve told every person I know using Honey for years that it’s a shady extension and they should stop using it. Unfortunately I don’t have a huge following to offset Honey’s massive ad spend.
I’m not calling anyone stupid, but stop treating this like it’s new information. Your browser warned you this might happen when you installed the extension:
I think you meant to reply to the parent comment?
Vaccines protect the workforce and allow individuals to produce more. People being against vaccines cannot be good for capitalism, can it?
Unless you cause harm to others (like accidentally starting the next pandemic), how could you ever punish someone for treating themselves? 🤣
We don’t, as far as I know, make cutting your own arm off illegal and I fail to see how this is different.
PS: I’m not arguing against you, just noodling philosophically.
But you couldn’t release your own projects based on this under pure MIT or Apache-2.0. Presumably you’d need to include the same restriction about selling on Atlassian’s marketplace.
Split meaning equal shares, or split as in each person pays for what they ordered?
Canadian checking in.
Biggest oddity to me is that the default for restaurants is one bill, and waiters get annoyed if you ask them to split it by person.
Like why would I want to either:
It’s complete insanity to me.
I run Gentoo as my main distro, and have for a couple years now. It’s a pretty stable rolling release (IMO more stable than Arch), and since you’re already an advanced user, the experience should be pretty rewarding!
The wiki is great, and the installation handbook is top notch.
You get to control exactly what features each package is compiled with, so no bloat at all.
KDE 6 just landed too!
Bah, real power users only need a magnet and a pin.
Linux is whatever the Linux Mark Institute says it is.
You don’t need reproducible builds. You can get by if you trust whoever compiled it, like your distro’s maintainers or the pidgin developers.
The risk of mis-ordering your layers is a security issue.
There are two ways to layer a VPN and tor:
In the first option, you gain little. Tor already encrypts your traffic, so your ISP can’t see inside them. Technically, Tor over a VPN hides the fact that you’re using Tor from your ISP, but Tor’s snowflake does something similar if you need that.
In the second option, you’re revealing your VPN account information, which could theoretically be associated back to you. Tor adds nothing over just a VPN in this case.
Don’t mix tor plus VPN.
If you’re using tor browser without tor for some reason, carry on.
Copyleft means: “if you modify the program and share it, you also have to include the source code for your modifications.”
The owner of the copyright (usually the developers or their employer) can still change the license later.
It’s FOSS. It’s pretty normal for it to be a passion project or a community effort.
A penny saved is still a penny saved. I’m not saying it would amount to much, but it is non-zero.
