How would it be bad? More hardware support, more users not feeding data to corporations, more software support and so on.

I mean, I’ve been hearing it for 15 years, we can’t be wrong for that long, right? Which means that next year it’s 100%!

Nah, 2025 is the year of the Linux on the desktop.

I treat all my data as ephemeral, no need for separate home partition.

I mean, is it misusing? When one of the largest companies in the world decides they want every penny you have, that’s pretty much the only course of action you can take. Or suicide, I guess.

I recently made a tool that let’s you export your saved posts and comments as a RSS feed. The info is here. Might fit your use case - you could create a new user and save only the posts that interest you.

Edit: Additionally, these seem like they might fit:

• https://www.inoreader.com/
• https://politepol.com/en/
• https://rss.app/
• https://freshrss.org/
• https://tt-rss.org/

Note that as far as I can tell, your use case is not the primary use case of those platforms but they seem they might be able to be used like that.

I mean, smaller company is also a smaller impact and much faster decisions. If it happened to one of my small clients, it would be resolved within 20 minutes. If it would happen to my largest client, it would take hours if everyone in the decision chain suddenly turned competent and people with access to various stuff would all be available, which they probably wouldn’t, so realistically we’re talking days (assuming the DNS provider doesn’t restore it beforehand).

The DNS provider (who is not necessarily also a registrar, but it’s common that the registrar is also a provider) doesn’t have any option to disable individual pages. They can only disable a whole subdomain or domain.

The server provider technically could, but it’s much harder because the site is served on https, so they would most likely have to disable the whole server as well.

Not that the server provider was asked, it’s just to illustrate that no one but the service owner (itch.io) can meaningfully block a single page. Asking the infrastructure providers is a dick move.

Edit: So the server provider was asked as well, but they’re not as incompetent it seems. Also, instead of a copyright abuse, BrandShield falsely sent this as a fraud and phishing, which is another dick move.

So yeah, the DNS provider is incompetent, but BrandShield is the malicious actor here.

The Walking Dead by Telltale.

I mean, that’s what you get for naming the newest game in the series as if it was the oldest one.

TIL Reagan got shot. I’m not American, so I don’t really care about US presidents that don’t concern me directly (meaning the ones in power during my adulthood), but it’s not like everyone knows that.

It’s not like it’s the first time I’m addressing you sharing these scam games. And I was very far from aggressive. I politely pointed out that these are scammy games which you share regularly for many months now.

I have no idea what part of my comment seems aggressive, I’m simply stating the facts. In a very calm manner, I might add.

Let me introduce you to my former phone: Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G.

And as usual, these are not free, they only use being “free” as a marketing strategy. A scam does not stop being a scam because it’s “free”. You’re actively participating in sharing scammy apps. And for quite a while.

Nope, the bridge doesn’t allow that currently.

That’ll show them!

That’s how it works, the bridge makes it possible to post your content to both. And if people who interact with it also use the bridge, it will be visible on both as well. The only downside is that you can’t interact with people who don’t use the bridge and at the same time are not reacting to your post on the same platform you are. For example, I have Mastodon account and use the bridge, if someone who only uses Bluesky, but not the bridge, comments a post by me, I have no way to react.

Just curious, what’s in the torrents?

Anyway, leaving your jobs to have time for your side project is exactly how we get another core.js story. Read that dude’s story.

These are not free.

Honestly, you already have the image locally if you’ve pulled it.

I guess not everyone treats their PC as an ephemeral storage, huh? I don’t trust anything that’s available only locally to survive.
