You can have a work profile as well as a private space account. I think the latter is a relatively new feature. Really useful if you want your dating apps or NSFW apps not tied to your personal account.

The only drawback is that the private space cannot use background services so you can’t get notifications of hot MILFs in your area.


If I’m reading this correctly, the haystack is the malicious compliance of providing all documents printed and in Korean. The needle is the document that snuck between other documents so that Valve attorneys wouldn’t find it.


I remember complaining on Amazon about the price of digital books when they were still relatively new. They wanted me to pay the same price for a digital book as a physical book. Back then, Amazon still had pretty decent customer service and wrote me back saying that the price for the book wasn’t for literal pages but for the work in making the book, etc. etc.

I told them I understood that but I don’t get the same rights with the digital book as I did with the physical, namely the right to sell the book.

Books, board games, etc. any physical media is technically a license, yes. BUT the copyright holder cannot bar you from doing whatever you want with the physical copy, within the limits of copyright law. Those same rights simply do not exist with your digital copies and, in fact, is often codified within your terms of service that you don’t fucking own anything and they can pull your license at any time.

DVD is next to impossible to revoke while Blu-ray is not. But you can’t revoke Blu-ray licenses to specific people but to regions. I haven’t heard of this happening but if it did, you could, in theory, still play your Blu-ray disks on players that aren’t connected to the internet to receive those updates. That said, I’m like 80% sure that Blu-ray keys have been leaked and you can rip them like DVDs today.



Wills aren’t required and not everyone will have one.

I think the best course of action is to have a trust set up and have all of your assets under the trust. That’s how my attorney set up my end of life tasks. It saves you problems with probate and taxes while also giving you flexibility if you want to change things.


I’ve actually been thinking about playing Fallout again. I don’t even remember half the things you’re talking about.

Ah the memories.


I could see tor browser continuing to be developed. There are enough users who are technical enough to take on a browser project.


I would agree that ublock is good but I have pihole so even on chrome I don’t see ads. It’s part of the reason why I still haven’t moved. If I didn’t have pihole I’d probably already have made the move.


I hate to say it but me too.

Chrome is my daily driver. Firefox Mobile needs major features that only exist in chrome for now.

Tab grouping is the biggest one. But if I could have multiple profiles on Firefox like I can on desktop I’d move today.


I’m just waiting for Musk to sue all people on earth for either not having an account or for abandoning their account on Twitter.


I don’t think I explained it well.

I shop at 4, maybe 5, different grocery stores. Some products I have preferences whereas others I don’t.

For example, say this is my grocery list for the week:

  • grapes (never buy at Walmart)
  • composition notebook
  • ground turkey (only buy at Wegmans, unless there’s a sale)
  • oat milk
  • chocolate chips
  • eggs

I want an AI to scrape every grocery store’s weekly ad or their website along with any coupons that are available, and determine the best price and, based on patterns of sales, what I should wait on and what time of day I should shop.


There was a Twitter post about great uses for AI but it’s not being developed. The one I aligned with was scraping grocery store ads and creating a shopping list based on the best prices and personal preferences.

AI is solving problems for the business class. They are trying to stop paying people. AI has use cases to actually make our lives better but are antithetical to the capitalistic companies and would likely try to stop any AI use that undermines their bottom line.


I’m in the market for a truck and actually drew this same conclusion. Trucks are terrible in fuel efficiency and would likely not be my daily driver.

The main reason I want to buy (vs renting a truck or uhaul) is primarily availability. When I’m doing a weekend project, on more than one occasion I could not rent a truck because everyone else had the same idea.

Over the past year, I’ve rented the Home Depot truck four times, totaling about $400 which includes fuel and late fees. The main difference between renting a Home Depot truck vs a uhaul is that you don’t pay mileage. Renting the Uhaul once is about $200 with mileage and gas.

Uhuals can be reserved, but at that price point it’s not worth it.


Is the Cybertruck even a truck? I don’t see the “truck” part.

I know very little about cars, and even less about trucks. When I think of a truck, I think of a bed in the back where you can haul stuff from Home Depot.

Where is the “truck” part?


If you’re going to sell a DLC that is only a skin and people buy it, I don’t have an issue. A skin adds nothing outside of “looks” and it’s purely optional. If you the player want to pay for it, be my guest.

It’s when games release a game that is unfinished, has bugs, and what should be a patch is sold as a DLC, I have problems with that.

Or when DLC adds a competitive advantage, that is just wrong. Like for $5 a month, you get extra “stability” in your scope, or the whole “pride and accomplishment” crates.

Those DLCs can go fuck themselves.


They obviously look at child porn. If they had nothing to hide, they would volunteer!

I say it’s time to investigate each politicians phones and computers and then install monitoring software.

For the children.


Oooh… I’d love a YouTube integration with jellyfin.

Tell me more.

I’d love the features of a podcast app but for YouTube creators I follow.


There are the small-medium business that use the standard slack EULA. Then there are fortune 100 businesses that negotiate their own licenses because they have the money and resources to do so.

My company has very specific BAAs with the major business apps and would be shocked if this even raises an eyebrow with them.


If it’s still in alpha, then a standard non disclosure should be fine.

A non-disparagement clause is overkill.


I don’t get how HDMI got so popular. DP had much better features earlier on. And no licensing fees.

Iirc the main reason for HDMI was its copy protection and Sony BluRay players only having HDMI. I could be wrong though.


Your passkey is an encrypted message that authenticates you, the service you’re trying to reach, and your computer.

If you go to a phishing site, the passkey won’t even come up because the browser doesn’t recognize the site. Granted a dumb user could still use their user/pass but ideally the user has MFA set up so they can’t get far.

The goal of a passkey is to replace username and passwords entirely so that phishing becomes less common.

The main issue with passkeys is that unless you have something like a YubiKey or an authenticator (like bitwarden), the passkey is tied to the browser which means if the device gets lost you can’t log in anymore.


Either with a pin or thumbprint


If you’re entering a u/p along with a passkey, then it’s MFA.

There are only a few sites I know of that do passkey correctly. CVS works wonderfully on my phone. Requires a username and then the passkey on my browser.

My company is working on a passkey only for login and it’s really really slick.

You basically click “login” and then authenticate your passkey and you’re in.


Huh. I didn’t know that. I only have two vpns, mostly because they come with a product I subscribe to.

Good to know


The biggest thing was being able to switch it on and off from the notifications menu. It is/was super convenient.

Not surprised this is being shut down because it lacked many of the features that most major vpns had.

But that feature was unique.
