Don’t get GoreTex because it’s using PFAS chemicals which are harmful to the nature we’re out there to enjoy.

Very good gear and they don’t use chemicals harmful for the environment (such as Gore-Tex / PFAS).

Would be interesting to learn why they decided to discontinue Qwant Maps. I wonder if it’s a technological hurdle, a competitor issue or something else.

I’m still looking for a good Google/Apple Maps replacement with good UX and enough information about local businesses.

Yeah I was surprised as well, but apparently they’re working in a new browser.

It’s an interesting approach where you can take all the learnings from the first product and then put it into a follow-up product.

I hope they’re continuing the ARC direction, just not based on Chromium. But I’m afraid they’re going all in on some sort of AI browser…

Arc is very nice for my workflow, quite a different take on what a browser can be. But I’d say you’re not missing out too much as it’s, unfortunately, no longer in active development.

They still update chromium regularly, but they’re no longer working on functionality or bug fixes because it’s “done” or something. 🤷‍♂️

Sorry but I can’t read past that intro. Don’t doubt there’s a bunch of propaganda out there, but this is don’t tell me Israel is the victim here. Their propaganda machine has been running full steam for decades.

I moved to notion. I think the CEO story is somewhat overblown. But I’m using custom domains in case I’m proven wrong, which will make it easy to switch if I have to.

I though Orion was free to use?

Same.

Getting a bit tired of the brigading against Proton. IMO the negativity is overblown and Proton is still a good option.

But do recommend everyone to get a custom domain so it’s easy to switch in case I’m proven wrong and Proton does turn sour.

100%. Lemmy just happens to have the communities I’m interested in.

I remember trying to move to Mastodon years ago. But the main topics in my feed were furries, transgenders and activists.

Not hating on any of those, but it just wasn’t what I was interested in at the time, so I quit the whole microblogging thing altogether and spent more time on Reddit.

Oof. Didn’t know that was the case. That’s rough.

Get a custom domain so that your new email address isn’t tied to Proton. If Proton goes to shit it will be much easier to just take mail@mulcahey.com with you to your new email provider. I wish I had done this with Gmail so that it would’ve been easier to move to Proton.

Love Kagi as well, but haven’t used this feature yet. What sites do you block?

😂 one can dream

“It’s not European (yet?), but Canadian”

What do you know that we don’t know 👀. Would love for Canada to join the Union ❤️.

The title indicates that Signal was cooperating with Ukraine in the past and decided to stop doing so. But that seems misleading if they were never able to cooperate in the first place?!

Edit: without more info on Signal’s previous responses, this article is not saying much.

“The encrypted messaging app Signal has stopped responding to requests from Ukrainian law enforcement regarding Russian cyberthreats, a Ukrainian official claimed”

Thanks for sharing! I hadn’t come across this article yet.

I’ve been trying to get TailsOS working on the deck, but no success so far.

Did anyone get it working by any chance?

Just finished Half Life 1. Currently going through Half Life 2.

Can’t remember if I finished this game before. But if I have, it’s at least 10 years ago. So most things are new to me.

Ravenholm being the only exception.

I have yet to explore Italy and other parts of Europe. I’m a big fan of British Columbia in Canada. Lots of beautiful nature to explore over there.

But def love a lasagna 🤤
