These comments are crazy. Did no one actually check the publication date?



It’s an optional field in the userdb JSON object. It’s not a policy engine, not an API for apps. We just define the field, so that it’s standardized iff people want to store the date there, but it’s entirely optional.

Hence, please move your discussion elsewhere, you are misunderstanding what systemd does here. It enforces zero policy, it leaves that up for other parts of the system.

And sorry, I am really not interested in these discussions here. it’s not the right place for this, and please don’t bring it here. Thank you.

Yes. Russian companies pay taxes to the Russian regime, and the Russian regime uses that tax money to fund their war. Therefore, if you do business with Russian companies, you sponsor the Russian war.

Just out of curiosity: Should we boycott DuckDuckGo for using the Bing API, since Microsoft is an American company whose tax dollars go toward funding the genocide in Palestine, the war in Iran, and the economic blockade of Cuba?


OpenBSD (and it’s subprojects) are highly secure, moreso than Linux.

I highly doubt that OpenBSD is more secure than Qubes OS or secureblue.


KeePassXC 2.7.9 was released before the statement

An alternative is the old version of KeePassXC.


I will copy my comment here:

Just so you know, Drew DeVault is a pedophile apologist. He cannot even remotely be considered a reliable source of information.

However, I completely agree regarding the use of AI, especially in a project such as a browser engine.

EDIT: I accidentally replied to this comment instead of the one with the link to Drew DeVault’s blog. My bad.


I am completely disappointed in Ladybird, even though I had some hope for the project until now. I guess all that’s left to do is wait for Servo.

Allows enabling dark mode and following system theming even when Resist Fingerprinting is enabled.

So, basically defeating the point of RFP?




Yes, but they and the Tor Project are making enough changes that Mullvad Browser can be considered a hard fork rather than a soft fork.


Not really. Mullvad Browser is a Tor Browser fork. WebLibre is a Gecko-engine based Flutter browser written from scratch.

The developer refused to add lyrics support, supporting their point with a response from ChatGPT.

Maybe. Maybe not.

Chatgpt:

“He brings up some points that tap into how legal responsibility is often framed in terms of “user-provided content” in various platforms and tools. Let’s break down the key legal and technical considerations involved in displaying user-supplied lyrics files in a music player app like Kew:

#188. Diabolical. The feature was added later anyway, but still.
