I bet he said this because it made many Europeans realize the threats are real: Trump can block the EU from using any US service, whenever he feels like it.

This is obviously not good for business…

Which is useless for 99% of users since they use Wi-Fi at some point in the entire phones lifetime….

Slightly off topic, but what's the origin / where does the name "W" come from?

…which probably won’t work for everyone and their grandmother, because most settings in Apple Configurator require you to have a managed device.

Hmmz the "briefing" rss feed can't be filtered by "minimum votes", i believe...?

Since Arch is hosting / facilitating the AUR on the archlinux.org domain, i think this causes less technical users to assume some level of trust. Even when they are aware that these are 3rd party packages.

Also i find it surprising that there's only very little/slow communication from Arch via their news channel. For example, how users can check for infections.

Thank you!

Yea, paru makes it really easy, i noticed the diffs are a little easier/different versus yay. Not sure though if it's a config setting, haven't figured out the details yet.

Also paru shows you coloured code syntax if you have `bat` installed, i think.

Would using traur have prevented this attack?

Curious, in this specific case: if people DID review the PKGBUILD, what exactly would they recognize to spot these packages were compromised ?

Noob question, but how do people know this is thrustworthy, since it's not from Arch / an official source?

There's a lot of voodoo in that script, i can't easily tell it's safe by reading the code.

I'd expect some reaction/solution from official Arch developers...

The announcement is from May 4, 2026 ?

I don't see the "Claude" story. Did you change the filters? (i can clearly see a message that the AI filter is active in the top of the page.)

"GenAI" is not filtered indeed. Maybe it's not working perfectly, but it does work for most/many AI stories. Good enough!

PS. You can just add the word "GenAI" to your manual filters, in settings...

A much better option, in my opinion: https://hcker.news/?ai=exclude

...so i think its just a cumulative view of the Hacker News front page, except grouped/ordered differently? ¯\_(ツ)_/

Thanks, love it!

I'm now wondering, what the default filter of https://hckrnews.com/ is exactly. I can't seem to get the same result on https://hcker.news/ ....

:/

This reminds me of a time long ago when i first found out about uBlock Origin “Medium mode” [1] Daily browsing, searching, reading webpages and such is a lot better when using it.

It’s amazing to see how many webpages you can just read without any 3th party scripts being loaded at all. And in case you do need them, it’s a simple keyboard shortcut to load them (= Relax mode).

Other than that, i stopped “consuming” many kinds of media that have ads in them (radio stations, media streaming, etc.) If it has ads, i simply dont’t use it.

Consent-O-Matic works even better.

uBlock Origin and others remove the banner / consent screens fine, but it breaks functionality sometimes...

Left of the "Share" button there's a little arrow (pointing to the upper right) which opens to the original url... Right click it to share / copy.

Noob question;

So if i only use the Firefox extension, all pages Hister will "fetch and store" will have gone through my browsers content blocker (uBlock Origin) before being saved ?

> Damn near impossible to find DRM free books to purchase

My method has always been to buy physical books (which is also better to support the author, because they get a bigger % of the price you pay.

And then, there are other creative ways to download the ebook... (without buying from Amazon, or other monopolists.)

"Blink is a browser engine developed as part of the free and open-source Chromium project. Blink is by far the most-used browser engine, due to the market share dominance of Google Chrome and the fact that many other browsers are based on the Chromium code."

Maybe that helps?

It would be great if each Signal group/contact had the setting: "Name Only" or "No Name or Content";

That way, you could disable this only for "non-sensitive" groups / contacts...
