Big difference between open sourcing an Atom clone vs a browser engine and operating system. Microsoft only open sources the minimum to try to attract developers away from Linux and get them working in a Microsoft bubble.
This is what happens when someone with basically little technical experience joins a JavaScript coding school and has to build something in order to graduate.
I'm pretty sure it is designed that way on purpose. Nothing will ever change as long as both sides are fighting each other and no one is willing to fight the system.
Always wanted to try using email for Git since it is built in and decentralized. A lot of core Linux projects do this, but I wish there was a better guide on getting started.
TikTok also is violating COPPA. Any underage child that signs up with a Google Account, you can clearly see from the Google account settings that they are collecting email addresses and other personal information. I believe Google and other app store providers should just remove them.
It wasn't even enabled until this release for video. It has been working on Chromium for over 2 years, if not longer.
The Wayland issues have improved after trying it out just now, but I still often get artifacts when resizing and switching between fullscreen and split screen.
Mozilla has continually put Linux last in nearly everything they do. Hardware acceleration on Linux has been absent but works on Chromium. Wayland support is broken with noticeable artifacts but works on Chromium. In their recent VPN announcement there is no support for Linux. In their password manager announcement revamp they don't support Linux. Why would I support a company that doesn't put open source first?
Yes they are. Once you look at the actual specs beyond the name brand, you can get much better deal. Dell and Apple monitors are also going to usually be higher response time and lower hz as well, so worse performance for more money.
Safe by what measure? If you mean safely track your pixels movements, fingerprint and identify your OS/browser version/etc, allow WebRTC to leak your IP address and download torrents or mine crypto in the browser.. then yeah I guess it is safe. Safe for advertisers and malicious actors to exploit users.
The same developer sandbox used for spying and pixel tracking?
Almost every website now requires JavaScript for the most basic functionality and the regular browser user isn't going to bother with installing an extension and enabling each piece of JavaScript manually to ensure that it is safe. I personally don't believe the JavaScript approach is even maintainable anymore. These Web APIs are so complex that you need third-party frameworks to make them useable and before you know it your site relies on 30+ frameworks for functionality that should be included by default in a markup language.
Because you're looking at manufacturers that primarily cater to enterprise. There is a big difference if you look at MSI or Acer for monitors generally and build your own PC.
Spend his whole life being taught about white privilege and is never allowed to say that he understands so he has to get re-educated all the time. If he says he has already heard it before and understands then he is obviously a racist Nazi Trump supporter and must violently be re-educated about his white privilege.
Yes, but there are multiple open source tools that make this easy and they have an API for it as well. I think the need to have a large monolithic platform for issues is absurd. I probably won't be using GitLab or GitHub for my next project. It totally defeats the decentralized nature of Git.
There are many high-quality CI platforms that integrate into Git that look great. It doesn't have to be built into a large monolithic platform like GitLab. I feel like this is a bad decision too. You'd think they'd at least move to Sourcehut.
If they treat it anything like your mail, they will gladly sell your information and fill your banking notifications with about 100 spam flyers with no opt-out.
Yes and yes, unfortunately can't wait around for Mozilla. This has been a problem for years now. Even with Mozilla's new official VPN service, and similar to their password manager, they did not start with support for Linux and it is always on the backburner. Until they want to prioritize open source first I am not interested in their solutions. I use chromium on Arch and it has hardware acceleration and everything else I can adjust through my policy file.
You still have to disable those policies for Edge too. Firefox also has network prediction and malware detection that sends your searches to a third-party, as well as telemetry.
