These 2 don't relate at all. By your definition, the service might as well be a platform for disc jockeys because computers and speakers both use electricity.

If they would just use a container sandbox and AppArmor/Seccomp/etc we wouldn't be stuck on this JavaScript monster we've created that still allows companies to spy on every mouse movement and track you around the web by default, but now requires 100s of unvetted JavaScript modules and dependencies for a framework to do the most simple tasks that should be included by default in HTML.

Is this for script kiddies that just want to be called a hacker? All the hackers I know realize Git is already decentralized and all you need is an SSH server.

Yeah, had some issues too but everything seems resolved in the latest 1.5 update.

I already run Sway on an old laptop. It is faster than my modern Windows gaming PC for most tasks and apps.

Markdown and similar markup languages is the perfect note taking solution.

Arch running Sway would be awesome

That is what I use Skaffold for

From the article:

> Docker is an excellent means of distributing those sorts of tools.

No, package managers are excellent means of distributing and managing installed tools. Docker is an excellent way to package the tools, but it's distribution and management are terrible. There isn't even a command to simply show which containers are considered "outdated" without having to repull all your images, which can take 10+ minutes on 30 images.

Tor + VPN makes it very difficult. You have a lot of faith in the government. They usually just go for hackers who make research papers publicly available using school and library computers.

Flat-file DBs and mountable DB file systems are the future.

The best part is being able to play videos without the bloat of JavaScript

Yes, it has live playback with mpv and you can even use it on Livestreams.

I take it you're not familiar with youtube-dl?

Except they we wasting development cycles prioritizing platforms that are generally built on proprietary platforms. When you've got a bunch of telemetry and other services recording your VPN address after you've logged in using personally identifiable information, or they have fingerprinted you, then you are no longer anonymous.

If you think Mozilla should prioritize profit over freedom and privacy then it doesn't sound acceptable or smart to me.

It really isn't that much different or extra work to create a cross-platform app. They are rebranding a solution that already has Linux support. Besides, if larger companies started releasing on Linux first I'm sure those numbers would shift dramatically. Linux really is a superior desktop for developers and engineers.

No, but even today people don't need help using a VPN. That isn't why Mozilla is offering an official branded VPN solution. It is because the name Mozilla is suppose to imply trust.

Mozilla consistently putting Linux last yet claims to pride itself on open source

Do you have more information about how susceptible CoinJoin is, because what I've seen for someone that knows what they are doing it would be near impossible, especially if they then convert it to Monero after.

Did you see the costs? Might as well use YouTube.

They must do some crazy code obfuscation or security though, because the source hasn't leaked.

They hack thousands of accounts and make national news, I doubt they are that worried. They probably just don't have access or they would have.

They'll probably just use CoinJoin and a mixer

Windows 10 gets a lot of love too. So much that updates often brick the entire install and deletes files and folders.

Ask Microsoft to reimburse you for your time.

Microsoft switched to no longer providing updated ISOs for Office 2019 and actively pushes Office 365. Plus their package management and update tools for enterprises are riddled with their own issues that makes managing hotfixes and updates a major PIA.

Except email labels (aka search folders) are severely limited

Pass has got to be one of my favorite CLI tools and is descent third-party browser plugins and mobile apps. Gopass works well too, especially for Windows and is compatible. I wish someone would build a bookmark manager using a similar concept.

Explains why they ignore the obvious violations and still publish the app in their store. Seems like a major conflict of interest.
