Google Chrome’s uBlock Origin phaseout has begun in c/technology@lemmy.world
[–] kill_dash_nine@lemm.ee 2 points 7 months ago

My company enforces specific add-ons for Firefox so I installed and use LibreWolf which our admins don’t lock down - only Chrome and Firefox. I wanted a browser that I would use separately from my work that didn’t specifically need their add-ons which include traffic sniffing crap. I know that if I want to do any personal browsing and guarantee it’s personal, I should use my own device but I was honestly just annoyed by the additional CPU cycles the security add-ons were using.

Did they mention external device access? I only see a mention of portable LibreWolf which I assume is referring to the “can just be ran from a folder dropped anywhere on the filesystem” version of portable, not necessarily that it’s an external device.

Nice spelling. Don’t be surprised when it starts to taste like piss.

Donald Trump projected to win 2024 election in c/politics@lemmy.world
[–] kill_dash_nine@lemm.ee 35 points 7 months ago

It’s just so sad that people can look at this shit like Project 2025 and think let’s go for that. Ignore Trump and his calls for being a dictator but what the fuck. I am so disappointed in my fellow Americans. I do not look forward to having this shit stain being shoved in my face with his inability to speak a clear thought.

Have you voted? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] kill_dash_nine@lemm.ee 2 points 7 months ago

I would strongly urge you to reconsider this voting strategy. By voting 3rd party, you are saying that you are fine with Donald Trump becoming president again which I believe is many times worse than what you have a problem with the current administration. Is him becoming elected really a better outcome for the overall future? While an important issue to you, you’re exposing a flaw in our election system in that your non-vote is just about the equivalent of a vote for Trump.

iOS 18.2 to Allow Third-Party Browser Web Apps With Custom Engines in EU in c/apple_enthusiast@lemmy.world
[–] kill_dash_nine@lemm.ee 3 points 8 months ago

That's part of the problem. I had seen on a thread where someone was asking if that would mean a mobile version of a browser, the response from some of the devs was "no for now" seeing as it is only the EU and that it would be a lot of work to do for a small portion of a potential user base.

Tim Walz: “Look, Elon’s on that stage, jumping around skipping like a dipshit.” in c/politics@lemmy.world
[–] kill_dash_nine@lemm.ee 4 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Here’s my read on it - looking up the definition of cunt, it’s “a woman’s genitals” so essentially you’re associating women’s genitalia with something negative, specifically an insult. It doesn’t necessarily make sense seeing as calling someone a dick is fine and isn’t seen as being so vulgar.

Concerns Raised Over Bitwarden Moving Further Away From Open-Source in c/technology@lemmy.world
[–] kill_dash_nine@lemm.ee 2 points 8 months ago

Ah yeah, the fun of how that works. I recall that I had previously set up WebDAV to try to simplify my source of truth but I think that was just with the original KeePass app, not KeePassXC. I also wasn't trying to share passwords among multiple people but I do recall having issues when I was using Dropbox to sync to my phone since I would have to actually make sure Dropbox had updated the copy of the file which required me opening the app at the time.

Why Do Companies Not Use Existing 2FA Standards? (lemm.ee)
submitted 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) by kill_dash_nine@lemm.ee to c/technology@lemmy.ml

This is something I am seeing more and more of. As companies start to either offer or require 2FA for accounts, they don't follow the common standards or even offer any sort of options. One thing that drives me nuts is when they don't offer TOTP as an option. It seems like many companies either use text messages to send a code or use some built in method of authorizing a sign in from a mobile device app.

What are your thoughts on why they want to take the time to maintain this extra feature in an app when you could have just implemented a TOTP method that probably can be imported as an existing library with much less effort?

Are they assuming that people are too dumb to understand TOTP? Are they wanting phone numbers from people? Is it to force people to install their apps?

*edit: I also really want to know what not at least give people the option to choose something like TOTP. They can still offer mobile app verification, SMS, email, carrier pigeon, etc for other options but at least give the user a choice of something besides an insecure method like SMS.

Ability to independently change font sizes (lemm.ee)
 

I find that the fonts in the feed and in comments are incredibly small by default. When I have maxed out the slider and on my iPhone 14 Pro, the fonts there are to where I finally consider them to be properly sized for easy reading without eye strain. But then, all of the text in menus is excessively big. It would be ideal if there were separate adjustments as I am not blind, I just don’t want to strain my eyes because I already use a computer for 8+ hours a day.

Any other iOS users experience images loading only a few lines at the top? (lemm.ee)

I am curious if any iOS users are experiencing this same thing but I am seeing when I am looking at some posts where it's an image post and I either look at the thumbnail or click on the image, that the image has only loaded like 5-10% of the image at the top. I've tried refreshing the post when I see that but it doesn't seem to make the image load. The only thing that seems to work is if I click the "Link" icon on the post which opens the in app Safari directly to the link on the other server where the image loads and then when I go back to the post after closing the in app browser, it shows fully loaded.

It seems to be random for me and not something I can specifically pin down to any one server/instance. Just curious if it is something that only I am experiencing or what. I can't reproduce it where the PWA is installed on macOS as I was wondering if I was hitting some sort of weird network issue but I can't reproduce it on two different MacBooks.

*edit: Seems like multiple people are experiencing the same thing. I created https://github.com/aeharding/voyager/issues/386 if you want to follow.

0.18.2 - Splash Screen Now Flashing w/White Background? (lemm.ee)
 

I am curious if anyone else is experiencing the Splash screen showing up but the background is white. I am on 0.18.2. I have "Use System Light/Dark Mode" disabled and then have "Dark" mode manually enabled in case it matters.

In iOS, I have Light/Dark mode set to automatic switching based on the time of day. It's at least happening to me during the afternoon today and I feel like it was working previously before I switched from wefwef to Voyager for my installed PWA on my home screen.
