i remember when people were starting to block brave's useragent for this reason and then brave suddenly added the "privacy feature" where they made it so it doesn't have its own useragent. real smooth, guys

despite being such a webmaster, losing a ton of money every month on adblock, i think users should block ads. but replacing them with brave's own is nasty. privacywashing that as "we're saving you from those pesky invasive ads!!" is even more nasty

brave's entire business has always been to be an alternative ad network. nothing more, nothing less. their browser's main purpose has always been to remove webmasters' own advertisements, and replace them with brave's own ads without giving said webmasters any compensation

A fresh Brave install in 2026: sponsored ad wallpapers on new tab page by default (opt out). Brave VPN, News, Talk, Leo (AI), Rewards and other revenue-milking bloat is advertised/pinned by default. Analytics and "phoning home" by default. Google as default search engine in most

@realpastaya it doesn't, i wasn't sure though and google wasn't giving me a result so i figured Hey let's use that magic machine it sounds like a horrible idea (getters shouldn't have business logic), but then also, i don't like returning a promise without tagging it clearly

Is some AI company giving out free/cheap credits or something? The Tetris community has also suddenly seen an uptick of bottom-barrel slop all of a sudden.

People have probably heard by now about this happening to open-source projects (ie curl) but it's happening to practically all websites at this point, and it's undermining actual security by wasting people's time on these scam artists.

This is getting ridiculous My blog almost never gets spam (mostly because I block VPNs, sorry!), but recently there has been an insane uptick in spam. The reason? Indian "security researchers" asking LLMs to spam the blog to then send me Markdown emails (without pgp key).

this guy's pages are really fun to browse through: toastytech.com/guis/win98.html it's a time capsule of old OSes and in particular captures well how people have thought about microsoft over time and, more importantly, how none of it has really changed

have we forgotten that "the os is just webpages" has been a thing since windows 98? that "classic control panel" is also just a webpage remember how XP tried to make people think you needed a ".NET Passport" to use the internet there has never been a "year of the windows desktop"

Microsoft doesn’t stop you from uninstalling Edge just to annoy you or take away your freedom. It’s because, in modern Windows, Edge is no longer just a browser but rather part of the operating system itself. A lot of Windows components now depend on Edge’s rendering engine

@thatstojguy there's no system that prevents unranked players from playing against ranked ones, in fact this is a good thing because it allows them to get settled in the system faster (playing against opponents the system knows of how good they are)

@webgamedb Cool site, surprised something like this never existed actually! How are you getting stats like these? I publish them for TETR.IO both through oskstatus and tetra channel APIs but wondering how you're doing it elsewhere. Hope to be able to see the weekend dips LOL

@skiplogic plus, i wouldnt want tetrio-desktop to be "inferior" to the browser by the nature of browser being able to use an adblocker lol

@skiplogic trust me i dont like ads either lol id remove them if i could, but realistically id be bankrupt in maybe a year at most if i did that lol the tetrio-desktop adblock toggle also costs me like 1300$ or so monthly but id rather that than have the game be bad for people rly
