    Not that it will help you but I kept getting logged out but it was because I was forgetting to click the remember toggle when using autofill to login.

    I remember reading about that during the pandemic, I think the article was about how Germany and Japan were very cash dependent specially compared to other developed countries.

    Well If they are making it that hard to buy, it’s their loss because it wasn’t hard to find the torrents.

    Agree I just have gotten into enough arguments when recommending it before that I thought a disclaimer was appropriate.

    Yeah the Apple and Samsung ones are definitely more problematic, I’m just concerned about Mozilla since FF is my desktop browser of choice. Would use it on mobile too but I use iOS.

    While is now considered biased and it’s probably outdated, I have always liked A People’s History of the United States by Howard Zinn.

    I wander what will happen to Mozilla since they are mention in the ruling and while true that Google pays them to be the default, isn’t Google their biggest source of revenue? Or has that change ?...

    Judge Amit P. Mehta of U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia said Google had abused a monopoly over the search business. The Justice Department and states had sued Google, accusing it of illegally cementing its dominance, in part, by paying other companies, like Apple and Samsung, billions of dollars a year to have Google automatically handle search queries on their smartphones and web browsers.

    “Google is a monopolist, and it has acted as one to maintain its monopoly,” Judge Mehta said in his ruling.

    I wander what will happen to Mozilla since they are mention in the ruling and while true that Google pays them to be the default, isn’t Google their biggest source of revenue? Or has that change ? Because if not and Google is force to stop the payments I don’t see them surviving.

    It feels like all US government intuitions are falling apart

    Judge Aileen Cannon ruled that the entire case should be thrown out because the appointment of the special counsel who brought the case, Jack Smith, had violated the Constitution. Her decision is sure to be appealed.

    They don’t have had the best track record and waited like a month to tell people they been hacked. People are free to pick whatever they want, but this wouldn’t be my choice.

    Those people should have been moving passwords managers and changing passwords after LastPass got hack. The data was encrypted but still.

    Also never have the Authenticator and Password manager with the same company or/and app. But that just my opinion anyways.

    Use Authy or the new Google one that finally doesn’t fuck you over if you change phones.
