Does the US government want Google’s developers of the Chromium codebase to work on another company’s payroll instead?

Probably. The point is that google can’t have any direct control of the browser as there’s a conflict of interest between google’s ad and other business and how web is developing. Take manifest v3 for example. Blocking content blockers directly benefits google’s ad-business. Also removing support for third party cookies etc benefits google’s ad-business while hampering others.

Just checked. At least the windows installer on their website is for v138. And their rpm repo is at 138 as well. I’m using an unofficial build due to it not being available in Tumbleweed repos and that version is at 137.

The feature is in FF 138 and LibreWolf is at 137.

I would quit youtube immediately but there are some good content creators that don’t post their videos elsewhere and I do want to watch them. Gladly there’s FreeTube for that.

Curious choice to write a c++ program for this instead of doing the same thing in a powershell script.

One feature it should have: delete itself after running to leave no traces of such a tool.

at least existing features and data remain free.

For now.

The file system was not unmounted cleanly so the dirty bit is 1 -> windows tells you to check the drive. This clears the dirty bit even if nothing was wrong.

It depends on your threat model. Using tor via a know vpn endpoint does make you stand out and can be used to profile your traffic. One of the main points of tor is that all users look exactly the same.

If you have e.g. one user out of a 100 using a vpn endpoint instead of some residential ip address that user immediately becomes a much more interesting target. There is information floating around in the web that state actors have control over several entry and exit nodes.

You got most things right about UDP and TCP. They both work in the transport layer of the OSI model. They are also completely different protocols, related yes but independent.

UDP is “simpler” as it basically throws data packages in to the network and hope they reach their destination. TCP on the other hand has checks in place that verifies that a data package has actually reached its destination.

It’s all Fediverse. You can follow things on lemmy on mastodon and vice versa and so on.

Not the same thing. With session saving I don’t have configure anything.

KDE + wayland on Tumbleweed gave me this experience.

Wayland has at least one deal breaker for me. It doesn’t remember where my windows were at logout when saving the session. I have six virtual desktops and have specific windows in certain desktops. Putting everything back where they belong after each login, no thank you. Until they add that I’ll stick to X11.

I’ll add shift + f6 for refactor rename and ctrl + 6 for redefining your function i.e. add/remove parameters and/or return value.

I use Jetbrains’ products for all my coding needs.

X11 can be easily forwarded over ssh. You do need to have at least the application you want to forward installed on RPI, possibly X11 as well. You also need a X11 server on the other side.

On a related note. Why would creators add sponsored segments/other sponsoring/patreon etc if YT pays them enough?
