  • I’d like to urge you not to use GitLab for your source code due to the ridiculous numbers of severe CVEs. I don’t think they have any idea how to write secure code and I don’t think they care to learn.

    Here is the most recent one I know of. The article mentions it’s the fourth in a year. Here is the most egregious one IMO, how are they so bad at coding they would accept unverified inputs to send emails to?





  • Anything that keeps maps in local storage so you can use GPS while offline is somewhere between very helpful and lifesaving. Sounds like Osmand is in there.

    Organic Maps lets you download also. I got it specifically for backpacking because it enabled that. It certainly has been worth the $0. I should probably donate something each trip.



  • If they aren’t cooperating with recovering access to your accounts, report them to the CFPB. They are legally required to give a real response instead of a form letter. I assume it costs them time and money, which is a side benefit.

    If the federal government requires 7 years, they probably will not budge on that at all. They should have a strong incentive to not leak that data, but they don’t. That is a failing of the US government. We need a HIPAA but covering any personal data instead of only health.








  • LibreWolf is great as long as they’re able to pull out malicious advertising.

    I hope some of the completely independent projects start taking off. Chrome is cancer. Manifest V3 is metastasized cancer. Mozilla is basically taking up smoking.

    I miss the days when we had functioning software without telemetry whenever we wiggle a mouse and ads in every corner.
