I’m glad to see Visa suffer, but I’m pretty concerned that Wero requires a proprietary phone app. There is no way to shop using Wero without this proprietary software.

Knowing DHL, the actual import duty is about half that. The rest is a “brokerage fee” they are charging on top of the tariff. They will not provide an itemized invoice until after you pay. They will not answer any questions about it.


I believe thay all have shitty operating systems. But some of them have an aftermarket OS available. Pick your OS first, then look for a phone that can run it. Here are the ones I know of:
GrapheneOS
CalyxOS (on hiatus)
Crdriod
LineageOS


How do you get this? My company has the Enterprise version, but when they forced me to switch to a new Windows 11 laptop (same model and specs as my old one which couldn’t be upgraded to Windows 11 for some reason), it came with all the crap in the article. Ads in the start menu and everything.
Has any software ever entered the public domain through copyright expiration? I think software at least 70 years old (125 years for corporate created) when its copyright expires prevents it from being any benefit at all.


Remember Memristors? They’re commercially available today, at 200 EUR per bit.


Three years ago, I replaced a failing SATA SSD in my personal laptop with a new SATA SSD. That laptop had plenty of power, and I’d still be using it today if the keyboard still worked, and the screen hinges weren’t cracked. It had no NVME slots.


The usual way for me is to give certbot write access to a directory in the HTTP root, so the server can keep running.


For internal stuff, it may be easier to set up your own CA.


Try to get as much as possible off Windows. You can transfer the remaining Windows-only programs to a virtual machine in snapshot mode, or if necessary, a real machine with a backed up image, that you can reimage regularly.
Not everyone can get off Windows. But get as much as you can. Isolate what’s left.


They used to use analog computers to solve differential equations, back when every transistor was expensive (relays and tubes even more so) and clock rates were measured in kilohertz. There’s no practical purpose for them now.
In cases of number theory, and RSA cryptography, you need even more precision. They combine multiple integers together to get 4096-bit precision.
If you’re asking about the 24-bit ADC, I think that’s usually high-end audio recording.


The maximum theoretical precision of an analog computer is limited by the charge of an electron, 10^-19 coulombs. A normal analog computer runs at a few milliamps, for a second max. So a max theoretical precision of 10^16, or 53 bits. This is the same as a double precision (64-bit) float. I believe 80-bit floats are standard in desktop computers.
In practice, just getting a good 24-bit ADC is expensive, and 12-bit or 16-bit ADCs are way more common. Analog computers aren’t solving anything that can’t be done faster by digitally simulating an analog computer.
The simplest explanation is that OP doesn’t have good opsec, and got a few tracking cookies after deleting cookies, before setting up their proxy/VPN. Then, on the VPN, the advertiser recognized their VPN IP address, and chose to exclude that from generating location data, deferring instead to the location indicated in their existing tracking cookies.
Privacy is hard. The system is rigged against privacy. You have to do everything perfectly, because one simple mistake could leak your IP address.
It would be a more meaningful discussion if the government wasn’t controlled so much by large corporations and oligarchs.


Inkjet printers are good for furry artists who sell prints at conventions. Hmm… that’s actually so specific that it reinforces your point.


Everyone already had the choice to use this before. You can visit any site with a search box, and add that site as a search engine to Firefox.
This is forcing it down people’s throats.


How do I prevent new antifeatures from being added? How do I even know about the new antifeatures as they are added? Does Mozilla publish an RSS feed of each antifeature like this that they add, that gives a quick explanation of how to undo it?
Are any of those apps FOSS?
