If you read the article you’d know it was the Megatron-led Decepticons.

According to people familiar with Microsoft’s plans

Might as well get your information from psychedelic mushrooms.

Well, you obviously have never used BitLocker. The first thing they ask you when you activate BitLocker is to pick one of 3 options:

1. Link to Microsoft Account.

2. Save to a File

3. Print Recovery Key (so you can write it down on a piece of paper or whatever)

There’s no “railroading”. There’s plenty of real things to not like Microsoft. No need to make them up.

Microsoft only has your key if you give it to them for convenience (by syncing to your Microsoft account), and they’re required by law to give anything stored in their servers if asked. There’s no conspiracy here.

JavaScript would have prevented this.

Why would you do that when you can pull 50 JavaScript libraries and wrap it in Electron?

This is being done because PDF is adopting JPEG XL, so Chromium must support it since it doubles as a PDF reader.

You can’t get more legal than obtaining content directly from the rights holder. It’s more likely that the rights holder is leeching and recording the IP of the seeders.

Cloudflare can’t be forced to censor anything because CDNs are not actually needed by the internet, they’re just nice to have. The only place where they could actually do anything is in the registrar business, where any foul play would just result in de-accreditation by ICANN.

AWS, Azure, and Oracle do have too much power over the internet, but that’s a different scenario.

Why is Cloudflare bad for the internet?

With that much voting power why even bother having a public company.

Yeah you’re right. Mastercard says tapping your card also sends a tokenized version or the card number.

Tapping your card shares the card number. Paying with your phone doesn’t.

Signal is against federation.

The reason why I can’t stand LLMs is because they congratulate me before replying to anything I say. This could be a good thing.

AI has money and Mozilla needs it. Are you going to pay for Firefox development?

Not sure if that’s even possible. Even a GoPro barely lasts about 2-3 hours while running no AI and having a bigger battery than whatever you can fit in glasses.

Cloudflare blocks VPNs at the request of whoever is running the server. There are tons of websites running on Cloudflare that work with VPNs.

Do you actually expect journalists to have any integrity these days?

If the EU is going to pay for the developers, sure. I’d even go higher and say make it 50 years. Otherwise make your own OS or use Linux.
