That might partly be because Vivaldi is openly against crypto"currency" while Tutanota is for. I've dropped Tutanota for that reason.
Here's one of the best takes on why Vivaldi is currently the number one browser and the 95% open source is a trivial “issue”: blahaj.zone/notes/9vrn6csii37g…
Who do you trust with your browsing?
I am in the minority position of never having trusted Google or Mozilla and that largely intuitive stance only grows increasingly correct as the corroborating evidence piles up.
My daily driver is Vivaldi.
This is pure cartel behavior: Reddit and Google have cut a deal that will freeze out all other search engines from indexing Reddit, where volunteers do essentially all the work.
This should not be legal.
It is VITAL to replace Reddit, and it will take a global village to do it. If we don't, the cartel wins.
And Google should be broken up by Congress, if the antitrust people won't try.
Lately I’ve been thinking about Stephan Berger’s recent blog post on hiding Linux processes with bind mounts. Bottom line here is that if you have an evil process you want to hide, use …
Switzerland now requires all government software to be open source zdnet.com/article/switzerland-… The United States remains reluctant to work with open source, but European countries are bolder.
The law that they just passed requires software developed by or specifically for the government to be open but it contains a loophole allowing the use of proprietary software and it contains no incentive to avoid proprietary software.
When we adopted a similar policy at NASA in the 80s the loophole meant that there was no change in the amount of proprietary software we used. I expect the same in Switzerland.

@Lynessence @Bruce_Toews It's actually not that bad. Erin hates looking at it though, because she's used to her monster Samsung Fold. Yup, it's currently my main phone.
@Bruce_Toews How easy is it to use since the screen is so small? That's cool that you can wear it on your wrist. Are you using that for your main phone these days, or still using a Pixel?
@Bruce_Toews And just as an FYI. My Jelly Star had a dunk in 3 feet of water. I let it dry for a week and it started working again. Consider me amazed.
@fireborn @Lynessence @Bruce_Toews Oh you did, did you? Lol! Yeah, I think the best thing I like about these phones is no bloatware and they've actually turned on the radio chip. Oh and you can record phone calls as well.
Exposlanec a jedna z nejvýraznějších tváří Pirátů Mikuláš Ferjenčík možná v příštím roce za trest nebude kandidovat do Poslanecké sněmovny. Vyzvali ho k tomu jeho spolustraníci, kterým vadila jeho předvolební videa s Ježíšem.
Článek jsem nečetl, ale přijde vám ok, aby si kandidát z druhé desítky stavěl vlastní tým s vlastním financováním, prakticky proti kampani centrálního štábu, navzdory rozhodnutí předsednictva atd.? Pro srovnání - kandidát na pátém místě (stále čelo) se rozhodl přenechat svůj prostor ve prospěch těch před sebou za účelem zvýšení šancí na celkový počet mandátů.
@jackc To jsem nevěděl, samozřejmě s tím souhlasím, správné rozhodnutí předsednictva to bylo. Já jsem to hlavně myslel tak, že celkově byla špatná předvolební kampaň u Pirátů. Kdyby nebyl @marcel_kolaja tady na Mastodonu, tak by člověk ani nevěděl, že byl europoslanec. Prostě mi ten článek přišel, jako kdyby za vše mohl Ferenčík.
I was checking out this year's #StackOverflow annual developer report that few things caught my eye:
1. They have deliberately drawn the wrong conclusion about most popular operating system. They have interpreted #Linux distro as operating system, so they have separately provided numbers for Ubuntu, Arch, Fedora, and etc., and have concluded that "Windows is the most popular operating system for developers, across both personal and professional use".
@marcoshuerta It says "What is the primary operating system in which you work?" was the question. For IDE, it specified "pick all that you've regularly used." So I suspect this question was actually single selection?
What's up with execs complaining that people are using their website at objectively low rates?
We previously discussed the CTO & CEO of Discourse ($21M raised) getting mad at 0.5 QPS, calling this "an attack", etc. : mastodon.social/@danluu/111064….
Now, the CEO of iFixit (supposedly ~$50M/yr revenue) calls 11 QPS, "abuse", saying "you're tying up our devops resources", implying it's reasonable for a $50M/yr regularly viral web property to need significant intervention if traffic increases by 11 QPS.

Since discourse employees are now dropping in to inform me that the Bing thing is fixed, with the implication that Bing was at fault because Bing fixed the issue.
I know.

GitHub has released an insightful article to accompany the documentary shared earlier showcasing NVDA, OSARA, & REAPER. The article interviews NVDA co-founders, Mick Curran & Jamie Teh, as well as Derek Riemer, who has used NVDA since 2011. Derek has contributed to NVDA itself & written over 20 add-ons. He also now works as a software engineer at Google.
because mastodon.social obviously is the mastodon server with the worst funding and it's definitely not small instances that could need some more money to pay for infrastructure, moderators, etc /s
just call your app mastodon.social if you want it to be a mastodon.social client, jesus christ. it's almost as if mastodon isn't even meant to be a federated server software

just to make it clear that sending email from tuta to gmail (or any non-tuta provider) CAN'T be secured in tuta. the lady just gave false sense of security. 💩
@ludiofines Hi there, you can send encrypted emails to Gmail and other platforms by sharing a password with that recipient. They will receive an email to their Gmail account which includes a link to an encrypted Tuta mailbox where they can use the password to view your message.
We recommend sharing these passwords via an encrypted messaging application like Signal.

Regardless whether self description is useful for visually impaired people or not, at least she acknowledged and tried to be inclusive. msnbc.com/opinion/msnbc-opinio…

Oh look at this So automattic/Tumblr's CEO is making the company email servers to redirect all mail from teamblind.com to his own personal address instead of the actual person who registered to Blind, so he can know who signed up using their corporate email (the only way to sign up).
Not only that, but by doing this, he could just go through the company email address list, hit the "forgot your password" link, and find out who already has an account, and even steal it.
Very sane, not creepy, absolutely not sociopath move, sire. Absolutely normal and not crazy maniac behavior.

Hey @AnthropicAI
: I get you're hungry for data. Claude is really smart! But do you really need to hit our servers a million times in 24 hours?
You're not only taking our content without paying, you're tying up our devops resources. Not cool.
If any of those requests accessed our terms of service, they would have told you that use of our content expressly forbidden. But don't ask me, ask Claude!
If you want to have a conversation about licensing our content for commercial use, we're right here.
