never will

thanks i just wish i know about them one year ago

why? for me it shows some warnings but still works

not necessarily, for example some laptop oems do not use the standard format and you cant just extract them from the exe so you have to use windows

dual boot, you never know when will you be forced to use windows again

• and for those who suggest VM, there are situations where its a hassle to make thing work or its impossible all together ( updating bios is one of those )

it was never a matte of if. only when

look at that idiot, typical redditor behavior talking shit from their ass as if they are experts on what they are talking about

Get a model near its end of market life, buy new the oldest you can find

This is a very good advice for someone who is buying a new phone to install a custom ROM on it, since they are indepandant effort they need some time to hack things and find workarounds

thanks it seems that YouTube is playing with its polymer script again, many apps also stopped working

i don’t think that’s possible mate for 2 reasons :

• software companys pay antivirus software makers to flag and remove game cracks
• cracks use obfuscation and workaround techniques that are similar to whats used in viruses so most flag them as mallisious

KDE connect on both your PC and phone just use --no-install-recommends to avoid KDE bloat

Brother’s driver install tool expects dnf, apt, or yum, and so it’s incompatible with ostree-based systems like Kinoite or Silverblue. You can of course download the driver manually and install the necessary packages:

Not being able to provide support for every distro is the other edge of open source

As long as your pc is a little bit behind its gonna be ok (unless you have a certain wifi chip)

i don’t want to start a war but sorry, office is the defacto when it comes to office work and libreoffice still have many problems with formatting and editing existing .docx files (things seem better when it comes to .xlsx and .pptx) not to mention that your documents might not look similar on both due to missing proprietary fonts.

its a good software in itself its just that its compatibility with office is a little dodgy

Okay guys, looks like the mediafire one has been taken down, Rockstar lawyers are really freaking out

–>since everyone is confused about this i’m gonna try to explain as best as i could and also clearing some misconceptions:

1# why this is such a big deal ?

if this gets implemented AND it gets widely adopted websites now can refuse to give you content if you are running a non complied browser, remember those website that say “oh you are using an ad blocker so disable it to access our site” they can detect this by various methods but ultimately all of them rely on running a JavaScript into your browser. which you guessed it, its easy to modify and tamper with manually or using extensions

now what WEI-API does is that it can verify the integrity of the web page ( JavaScript/HTML/CSS has not been modified ) and even tell the website what extensions - ad blocker detected no content for you - you are using and what browser you are using - firefox or brave detected no content for you - and do not be fooled into thinking that this can be spoofed. and website owners who think that they are running a business not a charity will implement this.

2#will using firefox save me?

if this gets widely adopted and you inevitably encounter a website that require this ( for your job ,school or your bank ) you have no choice but to use chrome just like when your banking apps refuse to work because your phone is rooted which means that SAFETY-NET is broken

3#why this is a threat to begin with?

this is only viable if the web adopt it so why bother?, well guess what google is famous for making its services very easy to integrate and well documented just look on how easy it is to integrate google analytics and google adsense* into websites and how many of them use it in the internet.

4#what can we do to prevent this?

this is my personal opinion but i think we simply can’t, this not like the reddit incident were very large portion of the user base was upset most people don’t know/care/give-a-fuck about web technologies and how they work.

#and Finally “but google said they don’t plan to use this to fingerprint you (Device ID) or track your browser history or interfere with the work of extensions”

do you really believe that a company like google whose bread and butter is advertising would not make it easier for themselves, a company who has been exposed time and time again for lying and having ulterior motives ( you don’t need to look far just look into what manifest-v3 did )

i just want to point out that the claims in this article are from Netflix ,so take them with a grain of salt
