Just one more day and it would have been gone forever.

It looks like 'ratshit' is misspelled

I had to look up the panopticon reference, so I thought to share with others: 'A proposed prison of supervision, so arranged that the inspector can see each of the prisoners at all times without being seen by them: proposed by Jeremy Bentam.'

Looks good.

Don't stray too far from the desk.

I like the 'ground up' approach they mention that doesn't rely on insecure 'adversaries'. I'll check it out soon.

It's true (and it feels a bit dusty), but it's still meeting my needs. I hope it'll get picked up again or perhaps another project will replace it.

Say the line BartGPT

I installed a custom launcher that's close to the stock one on my Pixel 3 specifically to make it possible to remove the Google Search widget. Now I have a Firefox widget that points to DDG.

If any are interested, the launcher is Lawn Chair, and it can be installed via F-droid.

It's a fundamental flaw. They're unable to admit making a mistake. Rather than being a sign of weakness, acknowledging errors is the first step to correcting them. I think this is why they keep failing.

This is not a real term, but maybe Freudian Hint?

Excellent. He’s had enough delays. Five months is more than enough time as he’ll have had 3 years to prepare for a trial such as this.

I’ve avoided Microsoft for years, but recently I’ve been reducing my Google use. I’m still on Gmail, and Street View is special, but I’ve been slowly replacing Google utilization:

• Search: Duck Duck Go
• Maps: Open Street Map, OsmAnd
• Drive: Extra Hard Drives
• Chrome: Firefox
• Home: Home Assistant (WIP)

Upcoming projects include replacing my phone’s Google-built Android image and transitioning to ProtonMail.

It’s not one big project, it’s lots of projects. It’s worthwhile, though. Along the way, I’ve reconnected with my love of good tech and I’ve gained new hobbies like privacy and contributing to OSM.

After using it since Lucid Lynx 10.04, I switched from Ubuntu to Mint last weekend. I’m lazy about distros these days, and I really didn’t want to switch, but Firefox instability was driving me nuts. The web browser must be reliable, IMO. It’s a fundamental requirement for a desktop OS, and this problem didn’t exist before snaps.

OP, here’s another one! This one’s also pointing out incorrect facts about Arkansas!

At first, I thought this was one of those rule posts.

Not related to the headline/article, I’d just like to comment on funniness the picture, from left to right: confused disbelief, dismissive disbelief, indignant disbelief. Much furrowing of brows, such concern.

IMO, the focus should be on being a good person and not on conforming to unrealistic gender stereotypes. One’s gender presentation (or lack) is enhanced by universal positive attributes like honesty, confidence, commitment, charity, etc. This is not an original idea, but thought it worth saying.

Goodness, that needs to stop. I’ll concede it’s a life saving tool during natural disasters or in places where tap water is unavailable, but the rest of the time it’s a symbol of waste and ignorance. On my walks I see at least one half full bottle of water every day on the ground. Some dummy paid real money for it, then couldn’t be bothered to even dispose of it properly.
