From the website:

With Midori Browser you can browse the web with complete confidence and an advanced tracking blocker.

Then the next paragraph states:

Cryptotoken: To reward our users, we are organizing an initiative a Token to give users to use our products and services without tracking.

So it blocks tracking but adds more tracking, so users can buy some shitcoin to remove the tracking?

I’m glad that their forks of simple mobile tools didn’t gain traction, then

There was a patch to rename it as murderfs

Fuck

So now I have to contact all the family members where I removed the bloatware and replaced with the smt apps, uninstall them before the “just 39 euro per week for adfree” subscription scam starts, find suitable replacements, train people to get used to new icons…

The Mac BIOS can update during a standard OS update without indicating that you’ll brick the machine if it powers off for any reason

I hate Apple, but my Lenovo does exactly the same. It fucking installs BIOS updates automatically without any warning. Once, after a reboot it was hanging too much on a black screen and I thought it just froze, so I forced a shutdown by long pressing the power button. Luckily the BIOS restored via the fallback, but that wiped the TPM for some reason and because windows 11 on laptops automatically encrypts the drive with bitlocker I might have lost everything (luck again, I’m part of the 1% of the bitlocker users that actually keep an offline backup of the encryption key)

At least (I’m guessing, never bought any M1 Mac and will never do it) apple should be smart enough to disable the power button during BIOS updates, and maybe postpone the update on a low battery, leaving the danger only to desktop users

Is it something actually open source if

1. It requires a proprietary backend, kept secret

2. Not a single pull request is approved, all contributions are ignored for years, then finally rejected

3. The issue tracker is kept secret

?

Your Instagram verification status will transfer over.

Cool! So everyone can know that i have $15 in disposable income every month and that i paid to dox myself

Looks like, at the end the counter said it overwrote 3500 comments

Yes but they can’t use it or show

When I was overwriting all my posts with the Power delete suite script, i got many error 503 errors

Btw, as it’s written in the fine print, if you delete your reddit account, all your posts and comments aren’t deleted and they will keep them forever with no option to delete them anymore

Need to overwrite before deleting

wtf i was thinking you were kidding, a vps with 24gb ram for free??

The huge downside it’s that it’s from Oracle, but at that price…

I think they hope someone misconfigures their VM and BOOM, huge bill incoming!

Look at the URL you posted: you used the official Reddit app to read that website, and they injected all the UTM tracking parameters to know that it was firstly shared from your app using the share button.

Number One reason to boycott their app (but tbh it’s a bit amateur hour, with the resources they have they can do like Amazon and share a shortened URL with much more tracking tokens)
