I mean if the core is from them and you can’t confidently say that the fork creator has reviewed and continues to review every piece of the code before they merge, you’re still trusting Mozilla.

If you don’t trust the source, how is a fork built from the same source going to help?

Here.

I guess their security turned out to be as fragile as their masculinity!

Imagine using ad hominem to dismiss factual and easily verifiable points.

Love is love.

It’s a great game but I wouldn’t call it uplifting at all. Some of the why is already in your comment. Some people may also get frustrated by being in a loop and having to start over time after time. Some of the puzzles aren’t easy, which again may add to the frustration.

CS2 being ranked higher than Siege and Fortnite is really misguided. It’s been almost the same game since before the internet. Siege was a welcome improvement on the same formula. Fortnite continues to innovate with new games and new modes, all appealing to a wide range of people and skill groups. Even its main mode sees drastic changes with each season. It keeps things fresh, which is vital for a live service game like those three.

Now refunded it seems. The person probably contributed to say it’s a scam, like some of the other backers in the comments.

We’ve noticed that some backer’s contributions to our Kickstarter may not have the best intentions behind them, and we want to ensure that all support is genuine and positive. With this in mind, we have decided to return the 12k SGD so that the funds can be put to better use by their owner

That would be perfectly in line with their past behavior.

Already 60% of the goal reached, with 28 days to go. 😩

We don’t know one way or another. Even if it misleads some people, that needs to be called out. The clearly defined criteria are displayed to many of those who join, yet they’re being put aside to essentially make up evidence and then turn to the really questionable definition of what is Russian that would also cover the likes of Telegram (reportedly used by 75% of Ukrainians), Google and so on, as rightly noted by someone in the group comments. They could have gone with that definition from the start, not baited and switched.

They aren’t calling for people to mount heads on spikes or review bomb, as far as I can tell.

In the context of the article, it’s not about the consequence - obviously, nobody’s getting burned at the stake - but about the how: the finger-pointing based on vibes or accusations of something done by another person.

On the one hand, I don’t want to tell Ukrainian folks how to spend their money with respect to Russia.

In that case, just look at how the Ukrainian users of the group are reacting. The number of users to have voiced their disagreement already exceeds that of the admins.

So how do you start or join a secret chat on Windows?

The story of his persecution by the Russian government reiterated throughout the article was exposed to be a total lie last month. He secretly traveled to Russia over the years, including just before Telegram was unblocked in Russia. Everything points to his secret cooperation with the government.

I’ve never seen anyone use Telegram’s e2ee. Not even by the users outside the legal realm, to put it mildly. Not only is it opt-in but it also works in the mobile app only.

Well, entering Mastodon in the search bar of a search engine today shows that it’s even easier than it was during the big Twitter exodus. The first link is mastodon.social. Clicking that lands you on a page where Create an account is highlighted in blue. From there, it’s the standard signup process everyone is used to.

Edit: Rewrote the comment to focus on the actual flow today rather than anything speculative.

That may be true for someone just looking to sign up with no help, but if they come across a guide or if their friend helps them, then it’s easy.

Is there any relation between Bluesky and Dorsey now? Does he own any of it?

They did, but it’s nothing huge.
