Nice try Nigerian Prince, but I’m not clicking your link.

Not a 3rd party thing. It has been a wiki setting opened up with login for a long time now. Maybe it had some tweaks needed that finally got completed?

um, darkmode has been available for years. Just needed to sign in.

mmm, that’s good ham!

For the inevitable report the mods will get: this is directly quoting Elon Musk accusing a volunteer trying to save lives of paedophilia just for disagreeing with him.

That and the pages that don’t work are trying to force a fingerprinting/tracking technique you shouldn’t want to allow anyways.

I hate to break it to you, but the character limit being integrated into the UI is inconsequential against the general preferences of humankind. Your 3 paragraph, well thought out statement is already too long to garner the upvotes a 2 word post will get in reply regardless of how good a post it is.

Streisand effect too: hadn’t heard of this until now. Git downloads immediately get flagged as Trojans tho

This headline a few centuries ago: How trade with the New World tragically turned its noble indigenous peoples into alcoholics.

Just use I2P? Can you access public trackers via I2P or do you have to use the crap internal ones?

this is far more likely to make things like recovery from quadriplegia possible.

Thanks. I literally slept on it and woke up thinking this :)

Tor Browser would probably be the easiest if least performant way.

No, IP should absolutely have some protections. Invent a hot new thing and giant-corp immediately out markets and produces you into oblivion. With zero protections innovation would be completely stamped out. Totally gone, not just harmed. No more new things because it would be immediately stolen so why bother.

That said, current IP laws are absolute BS and need to be cut back tenfold. None of this century of protection BS. For the lifetime of the creator, non-transferable. You can sell rights to use it but you cannot relinquish your ownership and creator status. Those are my hills but I’m not willing to die on them either.

No, just no. If you want strangers to take what you say seriously then you should show the simplest respect by supporting your claims with the reason(s) you have them. Laziness is flapping your mouth off and expecting to not have to back it up.

They just announced they’re removing the coins/awards system.

Light is almost certainly the fastest thing around. So it makes sense that “light-based wireless communications,” or LiFi, could blow the theoretical doors off existing radio-wave wireless standards, to the tune of a maximum 224GB per second. [Edit, 2:40 p.m.: It does not make sense, and those doors would remain on each rhetorical vehicle. As pointed out by commenters, radio waves, in a vacuum, would reasonably be expected to travel at the same speed as light. Ars, but moreso the author personally, regrets the error. Original post continues.]

JFC is this really where you want to get your technology data from? Authors that clearly have no grasp of even the basest fundamentals in the physics involved? Really?
