what do you think, are those companies committing fraud that sell water with “extra H2O”, or with “more ions”, just to put themselves in a better light?

if it hadn’t been updated in years then it will be an Mv2 extension, irrelevant to discussion of Mv3 strictness.


If the vibe coder learns how to vibe better…
they will not. for that, they would need to understand the review comments, and also the thing the LLM produced. but very often neither is understood by the vibecoder, because it’s a newbie and thinks they don’t need to learn it anymore, or because it’s a burnt out developer who doesn’t really care anymore (see: latest rsync incident)
How does that make sense? Google is also maga.
that’s not how most people think about google, and so it could be used (even by google) to smear competitors with being pro-maga. it matters more for the users of the competitor than it does for the users of google.
to be honest it’s hard to describe this overexplained apology that LLMs give. I regularly use claude through duck.ai, and I have to agree with him, the writing style and words used is way too familiar.

their marketing practices have been questionable for years, though. the promotional emails (everyone subscribed by default) and even the pricing pages are filled with dark patterns. by the charity fundraisers they do, these dark patterns don’t seem to be necessary for their sustainability.
In my opinion, in these two metrics Proton very noticeably falls behind most of their competition. That’s why I wouldn’t use it for security or privacy.
what facts do you base your opinion on?


for liability it doesn’t matter whether small company has written the summary themselves or generated it. they already had liability for what they say.


why would those sites support ladybird if they don’t support firefox?


I don’t understand what you found, but firefox still supports the web request blocking API for Mv3 extensions, which is what ublock needs.


this is not c/privacy, but know that even when ublock lite can hide ads, it is much weaker for blocking trackers.


For MAC spoofing, just do what Apple does; randomly generate a new MAC every minute or so.
let’s hope your headphones and such are doing that too. but realistically, probably they aren’t.


Strong, secure identification would change the nature of most of these problems. It would make anonymity a choice instead of an illusion,
wrong. it would take away the choice.


The value of any given contribution is the same, regardless of whether the code was written by a seasoned developer, a neophyte as a first project, an LLM, a team of high school students learning the language, or space aliens - the code is the code, it helps or hurts exactly the same when merged with zero connection to who or what wrote it.
Caring about who or what wrote the code is applying prejudice. Prejudice works well in a lot of cases, but it’s no guarantee.
the blog post is not about who actually wrote the code, but whether it’s worth the effort to do a thorough review. if an actual person made it, then yes because they can learn from it and the world becomes a slightly better place. if it was a vibecoder just using an LLM, then explaining what needs to be done and why does not add much to.the world, but it possibly helps to make the LLM company richer


interesting. but they are still doing the project, just not reading the github issues.
actually they even disabled the issues and the pull requests, which is unfortunate because earlier discussions also become inaccessible.


sounds better than an electronic payments only dystopia tbh


this can be useful too! https://f-droid.org/packages/de.tu_darmstadt.seemoo.nfcgate
probably requires root though


Talon Voice sounds to be an interesting thing.
I think wayland developers could be further motivated to implement support for input accessibility tools by telling them it would help a lot for automation software too. Accessibility software can help the healthy users too, like in a form of a password manager that automatically fills out forms. Or like AutoHotkey or many other tools known from windows.
grave mistake saying that publicly
