What about people planning terrorist attacks before they go into Austria? The geniuses did not think about that.

Cool channel, never came across it before. Always good to find high production quality Linux channels.

The Netflix analogy does not make any sense in this context.

they could always ask. Ask and then listen.

Not nearly enough people turn on optional telemetry. I'll bet you don't always either.

I know Brave is controversial but they were the only ones (edit: not sure about Vanadium, I'm curious if they were vulnerable) disallowing JS to access localhost thus blocking Meta and Yandex's recently discovered spying.

Sounds like such a no brainer to not allow random websites to communicate with the localhost and very easily circumvent all sandboxing you spent thousands of hours building. Looking at you Android (Google) and all the browser vendors (also Google?, huh).

First genocide ever to be livestreamed to anyone who don't want to turn a blind eye.

I am happy they're giving people a choice. On the other hand, the fact is, (privacy respecting) telemetry is the only way to make a program as complicated as a web browser better. Especially important when your competition is a giant data hoarder with orders of magnitude more users. And people will just not turn on opt-in telemetry.

What's up with the attitude like gpu accelerated terminals aren't extremely popular? If you're fine with what you're using, have fun and tone down the high horse.

Is there an easy way to transition from Spotify other than looking for all of your songs yourself?

Yeah Jellyfin was forked from Emby's last open release IIRC.

Anything is fine unless you're using the terminal very heavily. Almost all of my workflow is within the terminal so I want everything to be as fast as possible. I want a minimal, low config, fast terminal that has the exact same behavior when using the same config on Linux and MacOS (I know, fuck me, I have to use it for work). And those are Alacritty and Ghostty. I hate Alacritty's horrible icon so I use Ghostty.

Yeah the protocols are there, portals support it, OBS works. It is great that random applications cannot capture the framebuffer.
