You do realize with more donations they can AFFORD to hire more people, and to get the help they need? Money is the solution. Let’s not downplay the value of it.

It’s more so lucky that there was someone diligently doing that. It could’ve easily gone unnoticed had there not been someone like him.

Personally I suggest you straight up install Librewolf instead.

That said, most extensions aside from ublock are pointless these days.

Give piped.video a try. Basically a youtube frontend that isn’t ass.

Try Windscribe, they offer residential and datacenter IP’s. I don’t get the point, but it’s your money.

I erroneously said the IP’s are less shared, but that’s not the case per the page.

But still, they get past more ip-blocking.

After reading where I’m even posting: Renting a cheap VPS and using Wireguard to tunnel to it is also an option.

Then it really is only used by you.

• Man, I’m really not reading today.

See: Anything that can open ports. NAT of any kind tends to not allow opening ports.

You can get Let’s Encrypt certificates for DuckDNS, so you don’t even need to own anything.

Works with anything that can open ports. DuckDNS works by pinging their service from anywhere to update the target IP for the subdomain.

You do realize all this is easily done with a reverse proxy + DuckDNS?

Imo this is why big projects that are borderline like this should use github alternatives, preferably self hosted solutions. This was always going to happen.

It’s called “no money”, but a lot of the recipes include avocados, maple syrup, etc, which definitely aren’t cheap.

Edit: That said, good resource for quick home cooking for the most part.

What we need isn’t browsers. What we need is an universal way to write extensions cross-browser.

Browsers themselves are easy to make. The problem is convincing extension devs to work with yet another codebase.

E: Think of it this way. There’s a lot of open source browsers out there.

Are you using any of them? Probably not.

Would you use one if it doesn’t have for example Bitwarden, Ublock Origin, Sponsorblock, and such mandatory extensions?

Users follow extensions and ease of use; not what’s good for them.

E2: A good project would be a builder extension for VSC for example, which compiles to all supported browsers.

Browser devs would then contribute to said extension via native-made plugins.

Cooperation of two fronts.

Protip: “It gets better later” isn’t a good way to promote a game.

It has to be good from the start.

If it isn’t and it can’t hook a player, you’ve just lost a customer, who likely just refunded the game as well.

Now personally: I like terraria from start to end. It got a bit boring in the middle. I used to not be able to play it at all because /something/ about the game really triggered my migraines. It doesn’t anymore, and I can play it.

Well to be fair, Microsoft used to be entirely proprietary until recent.

Same thing with things like Ghidra; used to be a completely locked up proprietary software for NSA, now it’s open source.

Hashing on client side is both more private, and secure. All the user ever submits is a combined hash (auth/pubkey) of their username + password.

If the server has that hash? Check the DB if it requires 2FA, and if the user sent a challenge response. If not, fail the login.

Registering is pretty much the same. User submits hash, server checks DB against it, fail if exists.

Edit: If data is also encrypted properly in the DB, it doesn’t even matter if the entire DB is completely public, leaked, or secured on their own servers.

Well to be fair, if they’re hashing serverside, they were doomed to begin with.

But yeah, there’s a lot of ways to DDoS, and so many tools that just make it a 1 button click.

That’s a misunderstanding of DDoS. 0 byte packets are actually worse than large packets.

Which is why most DDoS (at least was) is extremely slow 0 byte requests until the server throttles/crashes under the number of requests.

E: Consider this. Are you more likely to throttle a bandwidth of terabytes/petabytes with couple million 1gb requests; or break it entirely by sending >4294967295 0 byte requests that effectively never stop being requested from the server?

You can care about people as a proxy of doing PR over the thing you like to do.

Not saying he’s an asshole or anything; people just need to stop having these weird as fuck personal relationships with online personalities whom they don’t even actually know.

But yeah, Linus used to care more, but it was years ago when he started saying he’ll stop being CEO soon. Started piling up from back then to where it is now.

Tl;dr: frustrations, inability to do the thing he wanted, high commercial pressure, family, impulsiveness (New houses, new cars, new projects while there were multiple still in progress or not even started), etc. Lost sight of what he was doing, and what he wanted.

Maybe that’ll slowly improve with new CEO, and the projects he started finishing.

Well to be fair, he’ll probably agree over a longer contact period, albeit it doesn’t seem he has a lot of free time.
