Thanks that helped me find them - my bad.

I followed the web ring on the home page and the first person didn't continue the ring (they had no link to next) and the second webring only contained one other site. Pretty disappointing introduction to something I "need".

They've had people in their corner who've overturned state law. There are federal lawsuits in progress.

These apps claim to let you turn your knowledge into money. What this means is the insiders get to cash out and the desperate suckers provide the liquidity. I'm amazed they've all gotten away with this for so long.

This tech isn't going away anytime soon. It might become prohibitively expensive for individuals but it's here to stay. It's worth trying to find a use for it while it's cheap.

It doesn't take long to type your address. Plus password managers or keyboards often auto fill it. It's not that deep.

I can't imagine a world where a p2p social network is practical. Not when each node is an unreliable mobile phone that's maybe on cellular. Even with something like ipfs you have pinning services, bittorrent has seed boxes, because pure p2p is impractical.

Browsers break backwards compatibility for security all the time. Most recently Chrome made accessing devices on a local network require a permission. They completely changed the behavior of cookies. They break loads of things for cross origin isolation.

They moved the tents.

How do you collaborate with the other meeting participants? You all ssh into the one machine?

The sever should cancel the request handler when the client drops. Otherwise you're just opening up to accidental DOS.

The article talks about browsers that use Linux in the user agent. This includes Alpine Linux - which is not GNU/Linux. It also splits out Chrome OS which is pretty much GNU/Linux.

I think learning how to unlearn is part of it. You'll often encounter music that is fingered unintuitively when learning increasingly difficult pieces. Plus if you're able to play legato at 100% speed guitar hero style you've probably discovered a mostly correct fingering anyway.

It's the rejection of pseudoscience.
