Question - what do you do when the site is hacked and your biometrics are compromised? Issue new ones?

You can validate that against user telemetry data expected from a browser.

I’ve been assuming this was going to happen since it’s been haphazardly implemented across the web. Are people just now realizing it?

I personally read this as “one quarter admit they did it to get people to quit”. If you think these folks are always transparent and honest, think again. They’re just trying to say whatever gets them the least amount of bad PR

This is effectively a layoff without benefits.

I take comfort in the fact that Oracle hasn’t been able to release new products. They’re basically a legal team wrapped around their existing software.

That said, fuck this guy.

Yeah, exactly. I was about to say flatpak exists and isn’t proprietary.

Also, the snap for docker/compose is hot garbage.

That’s the “getting better at not screwing up” part.

Y’all need high availability in your lives.

This is just it, it can barely handle manage my lighting system. How am I going to trust it to make purchases? Brought to you by the same people who can’t keep fake reviews off their platform.

Nobody expects it to be free. But it used to operate with far less intrusive ads. Also, people didn’t use ad blockers until they got worse.

Website is amazingly responsive as well, seems to be working.

They absolutely should have outlined a traffic limit for the $250 a month plan. That’s on Cloudflare for allowing it.

That said, if you make wildly excessive use of that loophole it probably shouldn’t surprise you if they do something like this. They called it “trust and safety” because it allows them to do anything they want under the guide of security.

Really, they didn’t define their service clearly and wanted to fire them as a customer unless they paid up for what they felt they were owed.

Realistically, this is why you pay for Akamai. You don’t get these shenanigans.

How the fuck were they still on a $250 dollar a month plan when they pumped through $2000 a month worth of traffic? That’s shady on the companiy’s part and Cloudflare shouldn’t have allowed it to happen in the first place.

Each party played their part here and did shitty things. Sounds like the tech equivalent of a crackhead arguing about selling stuff to the pawn shop employee.

I like how people assume they bought them to make games instead of buying them to eliminate the competition.

They know, they just don’t give a shit beyond short term gains.

That makes more sense, I didn’t realize it affected intelligence communities as well.

Legitimate question… I thought Operation Paperclip just brought over the Nazi scientists after WWII? What am I missing? We’re there politicians or other Nazi party members included?

But git is decentralized by design… Just self host.

This is a fantastic write up of the problems we are facing in the US automotive market. Broken regulations incentivize large trucks/SUV’s, including for electric vehicles.

Smaller vehicles use less energy. Smaller vehicles cause less road wear. Smaller vehicles are fine for most use cases - but I recognize not all use cases. Smaller vehicles cause less damage in collusions to other cars and pedestrians.

I’m not saying to take away any options… But let’s stop incentivizing the wasteful and start incentivizing the efficient. I as a consumer would love to see more small car options for selfish reasons. They handle better and are more fun to drive.

Does the Toyota Crown come in a PHEV flavor?

The Mozilla Foundation does such important work to ensure standards across the Internet, and keeping the monopolies on their toes. This is another shining example of just that.

Quantifying monopolistic behavior from major tech companies is important. This needs to be documented before changes can happen.
