No, I am not a customer because I do not believe bookmarks should be something that you pay to host in the cloud. However, for a self-hosted alternative my suggestion would be awesome and likely superior as it could be synced with any provider (Google Drive, One Drive, Dropbox, Nextcloud, etc).

Microsoft uses a .NET static site generator for company blogs similar to Hugo.

That is like a team at Microsoft using Gmail as their email provider.

Does it really matter if you use Tor as the first hop, and pay for it anonymously with crypto?

Microsoft is now using Medium as their official blogging service?

Thought people would have learned after they were caught the first time installing backdoors and then saying they'll spy on you unless you pay them.

Wouldn't be their first, probably won't be their last

Would love to see a Go-based bookmarking server (no JavaScript) and CLI/ncurses app that uses yaml/toml/json files for bookmarks:

It seems like with the right client that IRC could basically do what Discord does today, but without the need for all the bloat.

Just started using this and love it. I think I may be able to finally ditch Hangouts/GV.

Did they publicly announce the finances? They wouldn't have sold to SUSE unless their investors were getting desperate for some return.

All easily done using Helm and kubeadm.

You clearly haven't used or heard of kubeadm, which is a certified installer and lifecycle tool from CNCF.

They recently when through a Series D round for $75 million, but yet you believe they have half a billion in the bank? They were on their last leg begging for seed money to keep them afloat.

Kubeadm is the "official" and certified tool, not Kubespray. It is easily scripted as well. If you're used to graphical installers though and don't like automation then by all means continue to use Rancher.

Just enough to pay off their debt

Makes a lot of sense to sell now since Rancher doesn't offer a lot of value anymore compared to vanilla Kubernetes and a few Helm charts.

Well for music, people may want to continue listening to music when their phones are off or the app is in the background.

For video I agree it doesn't make much sense, but in a web app world if you're recording video you may want to turn off the screen or do other things just like a computer. It should at least show you in the notification area.

Just run Firefox:

It is only a year old. I mean how high of a priority can it be to not send your camera when your phone is locked or when you send the app to the background?

Microsoft cares so much about racism they going to be installing games by default in their proprietary OS but won't include quality educational content.

Probably enough to get them on a blackmail list

> Because it is a well known fact that it is trivially easy for a resourced attacker to retrieve data from a storage medium well after your computer claims it is deleted.

No it isn't. You said nothing about a browser. You said storage medium.

Not if it is securely wiped multiple times. At that point they'll go looking at your DNS provider and ISP, or local fusion center.

If that is all they got going I don't foresee them lasting much longer. At least Chrome and Firefox have their own open source browsing engines.

What about the phrases black magic, darknet and black market?

All you need to perform unethical human experiments is a psychologist to say it is okay.

If we write it down on a piece of paper and there is a fire or natural disaster it easily lost or destroyed. If you factor in writing it down on a piece of paper, scanning and making it searchable then it is easier just to input it on an electronic device.

Pretty much. Closed source at it's core for people that can't be bothered with freedom and don't mind being lab rats.

Manjaro is much better, or Ubuntu. With Debian you'll be lucky to get acceleration support and constantly be searching for unofficial repos to install modern software.
