I suppose it’s possible to build a system that would let you specifically allow a VPN IP to be green-listed on your account, but you’d probably have to allow it by signing in from a known good IP first.

I think it seems like lot of work for something that isn’t really private and is still probably vulnerable to exploit.

Printing like to dead trees?

You could just use the system print dialog instead of Firefox’s if that works better for you, I think it’s possible to set it as default.

They have sold two ‘tiers’ of kindles for awhile, the one with ads on the lock screen is discounted.

It’s not my favorite thing but iirc the lock screen is supposed to be the only place with ads.

It’s a quote from the OP article.

By the UN definition, Hamas is a genocidal organisation. Its founding charter, published in 1988, explicitly commits it to obliterating Israel. Article 7 states that “The Day of Judgment will not come about until Moslems fight Jews and kill them”. Article 13 rejects any compromise, or peace, until Israel is destroyed. Hamas fighters who burst into Israel on October 7th and killed almost 1,200 Israelis (and other nationalities) were carrying out the letter of their genocidal law.

This doesn’t seem like it would take a lot of research but it might be the first time I’ve heard about this charter.

Generally people are worse with computers than you think.
A computer preinstalled with Linux is definitely more likely to confuse than you imagine

It’s from the earlier days of computing/portable devices where almost nothing had the sort of inter-connectivity we take for granted.

You’d download apps or music onto your PC and then ‘sideload’ them onto your PDA or MP3 players.
Sometimes this required both proprietary cables and software. (This is why some of us still get excited by simple USB ports)

a word for such things is ‘dark patterns’
it’s not designed to be liked but to keep the player returning habitually and upping so called “retention.”

It’s mostly up to which manufacturers allow boot loader unlocking.

The pixels are somewhat a continuation of the nexus line which were more developer centric.

Next year: New Steam Deck rumored to have an essential oil compartment.

I used Signal since it was called TextSecure and I don’t think I ever successfully got another person using it.
Eventually uninstalled it because it was just largely useless, anytime I messaged a friend who seemed to be using it they were more confused than anything.

Having the right cartridge available without trying to find a shop selling them is.

One of the obstacles in this is if your printer only takes a single brand of ink.
I usually just order ink, but it’s not too hard to find ones compatible with my brother in a store if I need one immediately.

The fast start up option actually should still be under power options, though not really intuitive or easy to find.
Look for the part that says “Choose what the power buttons do” and it should be there.

I tend to just turn hibernation all off because I don’t really use it, and I’d typically rather have the space hiberfil.sys takes up.

It seemed to be just a 5 second wait.

The weird part is that changing user agent to chrome seems to avoid it.

If you want to turn off hibernation for good you can do so with an elevated prompt.

powercfg.exe /hibernate off

Otherwise you want to turn off fast start up, which should avoid the hibernation/shutdown you’re talking about.

Getting banned by a bot and having to beg somebody to actually read what you posted is an experience.
