I am so disappointed that there are camera LEDs out there that they aren't hardware connected to the sensor. Especially when there are bio-metric sensors out there that can do a crap-ton of calculation all in-device so no privacy concerns arise. I wonder if any of them are vulnerable to a firmware attack.

Calling a polypropylene cap sustainable is a joke, right?

Sounds like the hackers used recycled logins to gain access to 14000 accounts and then for each account gained info about other related accounts.

I can see how you can get 14000 compromised accounts even though it sounds too much to me. Cant see how you can get info to so many related accounts. a 1 to 500 ratio.

But if it is true then there is a little blame for the costumers too.

4 bolts (I actually think they are screws) is not a danger but it signals a failure in the maintenance pipeline.

its not fair to call people shelfish when the only subscription option given to them is 10000x the value of an ad shown to them. Flattr was a good idea and if it was integrated to youtube I would have easily pay more than the ads would have.

I use them for multiuser and multi-purpose usecases. And it combines nicely with "Progressive Web Apps" so I can have, for example, a youtube app that has all my youtube specific extensions.

I wouldn't trust a shop's article about their competitor's pricing and availability claims.

Apple's crime is not doing enough even though it's one of the biggest tech giants and not collecting data is against their interests. Cataloging and informing users of all the possible info going into the apps is a really good tool against data harvesting. In an "Apple vs Meta", apple is defo the winner.

Still apple is not your friend and is actively working against your interests in all kinds of ways.

Mozilla prism has been discontinued. Firefox first removed the feature by default and then removed it completely. IOS-add-to-home-screen always sucked.

We deserve a better SSB implementation. Stuff like 1-click-install would be dead simple if a browser would do it properly. Notifications, multiple instances, extensions and without the overhead from atom or toDesktop or whatever.
