No where did they say anything antisemitic, but you further diminishing the meaning of that word—just like BB has already—only enables actual antisemitism. I frequently see that label being weaponized, especially against other Jews. I see it be used when people merely report on what the President has said, or against the Pope calling for peace. At some point, I'm inclined to believe people constantly making these false accusations do so knowing it delegitimizes the word.

S3 might be relatively cheap for storing files, but with bandwidth you could easily be paying $230/mo. If you make it public facing & want to try to use their cloud reporting, metrics, etc. to prevent people for running up your bandwidth, your "really cheap" static hosting could easily cost you more than $500/mo.

Everyone wants something like a local version of Airtable, but the issue is anyone that tries immediately turns it into a cloud product. Nocodb is better, but is still severely restricted & tries to think too much in terms of replicating Excel functions, rather than making it easy to create your own using JS/TS.

This is exactly the issue. I don't want server-side scripts, what I want with Sheets is the ability to run custom JS from the page itself.

Same argument you're making would be that gun manufacturers know that their product will be used to kill lots of people, and any disclaimer on the package to not murder is silly. Would you make that argument with a straight face or change your argument as a result?

Or does it make sense to put a disclaimer on there, not just from a legal perspective, but to actively discourage those users who haven't made up their mind already? While people absolutely can use their software for pirating content—which is in open debate about the ethics—I've known very few individuals who torrent to actually profit from others material, but I know of plenty anti-piracy advocates who use stolen content for profit.

I've also known bucketloads of people that have paid $50+ for a movie in the theater or $10+ for a rental at home, only realize how badly they were duped by the industry to give money for something that was practically garbage, which they ended up not watching anyway yet the purchase was nonrefundable, which unfortunately happens several times because of all the fake interest in something actually being advertising, which appeals to their desire to fit in. It is often very exploitative.

I've also known a descent amount of people that discovered content they found joy in by torrenting, maybe at the time being depressed... struggling to get out of bed or find inspiration, and as a result improved their condition to become pretty big supporters of those who made that content later on, which they would then gladly pay for thereafter.

Seriously, any actual good artist I've known usually would be the first to encourage someone to pirate their content because they understand that the people that like it will support them, and the people that don't... they have no desire to exploit them.

Like you can claim people shouldn't shoot up heroine, while still giving them clean needles if they're still going to do it.

A majority of banks & investors own real estate. You think people have the funds to pay cash at market rate? I've got an even better idea though to deal with people like this. About time we give renters the same rights as labor unions. If you think it is an inconvenience now, wait until it becomes legal for renters to go on strike & landlords are forced to negotiate in good faith.

A hardware emulator is basically any hardware in the last decade capable of running QEMU or other virtualization solution.

You're free to say thank you but acting like everyone else here should is weird. There are a lot of good points.

And then you make it so when the tyrants do get back to 51% that they can just ignore the constitution instead. And might as well make sure there are only two major political parties so even though the tyrants ignore the constitution, that the other 49% will stay busy stuffing their pockets with foreign donations.

Furthermore, they "heard rumblings that KeepassXC is likely to be featured in a few industry presentations that highlight security challenges with passkey providers."

Basically, do what we say or expect us to have our corporate sponsors write bad press about your security.

That is what I've noticed as well. The thread regarding KeePassXC is crazy... straight up threatening negative PR because KeePassXC allows people to store their private key, demanding that they instead take away user choice and modify their app to hide & prevent users from doing things. Passkeys appear to me to be nothing more than a corporate gimmick, and to be honest, I personally think in many instances they actually make you less secure... getting a fingerprint is way easier than making someone tell you their password. Now days the intelligence agencies likely already have your fingerprints as well.

Sad what things like Markdown has done to people. It's like they forgot about all the amazing semantic markup of HTML 5 to create strong relations between their data. I'll take a Lexical editor with SQLite to store my data any day.

I'm not even using Docker. I use Podman in rootless mode installed using the system package manager. Even if an app found a way to break out of the container, it wouldn't have elevated privileges.

I'm not saying security is about perfection, but encouraging people to curl something to the shell with sudo is poor practice. I get that it is a newer piece of software, so I am forgiving. But getting it packaged into Homebrew, WinGet, Nix, etc. is more ideal. Some of them may verify a signed package, ensure reproducible builds, track changes for proper uninstalls, etc.

You mean the script that you'd have to check every time you want to install? At least with Docker, unless you're running the container privileged then you have some isolation. However, a package manager is usually the recommended approach since those apps are usually checked by maintainers & often routinely scanned for vulnerabilities. A package manager is my preferred approach.

The first thing on their main homepage is instructions to curl a shell script into Bash using Sudo. I find the argument that they prioritize security unconvincing.

There are plenty of other reasons to consider TypeScript, but again, what code execution are referring to? The V8 JavaScript engine?

> have such a perfect understanding of the current judiciary climate that they can't dance around the lines without any consequences

More like they have their hands in creating the current judiciary climate. Kind of hard to file suit against someone who is intertwined with the agencies that would investigate them.

Actually it is like any other Node server app, which is important if you're using dynamic routes. Of course there is a lot you can put behind client-side JS, but most people are interested in SSR for good reason. So while a separate web server can help in some scenarios, it sort of indicates Next.js might be more than you need.

On Windows 11, Edge is preinstalled and can't simply be removed either. Furthermore, it constantly bugs you about if you're sure you don't want to enable their recommended settings, which ends up re-enabling all the analytics/rewards/etc.

Yes, but the title doesn't match and is clickbait.
