I just pushed my first unsupervised minor update to the Vivaldi stable stream. Let’s hope I’m better at this than Crowdstrike. https://vivaldi.com/blog/desktop/minor-update-six-6-8/ Posted on Vivaldi Social on

Is it time to disable Secure Boot for good? Most hardware manufacturers have been using known sample keys, and Microsoft just nuked dual-booting systems trying to make an adjustment to Secure Boot. Is there any value left in the system for a Linux user? or even a Windows user? #SecureBoot Posted on Vivaldi Social on

Randall Munroe deserves a comedy award for #XKCD. He never ridicules or throw punches. It has been nothing but good clean fun for years on end. Is there an award for that? if not, there should be. Posted on Vivaldi Social on

I bought #SinsOfASolarEmpire2 through Steam and have been looking forward to playing it all week. However, I can‘t launch the game because of digital rights management tech gone wrong: 😢 “Epic Game Ownership is unknown. You must start the game when connected to Epic at least once before playing offline.” The error isn’t wrong, I do indeed not own the game on Epic. I did, however, purchase it legitimately. #DRMfail Posted on Vivaldi Social on

I want to use anything other than #WordPress for a project. (I don’t consider their humble brag about powering 40 % of the web to be a positive.) I’ve wanted to give #Textpattern another go, but the project needs a lot of work to be brought back up to date. I think I‘ve landed on Chyrp Lite. It‘s quite neat! ✍️ #CMS #ChyrpLite https://chyrplite.net/ Posted on Vivaldi Social on

Google Gemini has started instantly responding “Great question!“ and then take another minute before it writes anything more. I’m assuming the UX designer that came up with this distraction got a huge bonus. Posted on Vivaldi Social on

Yesterday, @Uladzislau casually referred to #ChatGPT as a person he had had a week-long conversing with about a topic. I’m torn between overthinking about how he referred to fancy autocomplete as a person, and whether I should go upstairs to visit Vlad at his desk more often. 😆 Posted on Vivaldi Social on

Ah, I see @Mastodon is now cargo-culting RDFa metadata on webpages. https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2024/07/highlighting-journalism-on-mastodon/
Context: https://www.ctrl.blog/entry/rdfa-socialmedia-metadata.html
This new tag should also have been a <link> and not a <meta> element. https://www.ctrl.blog/entry/html-link-metadata.html Posted on Vivaldi Social on -

“Please try and disable all your extensions,” might have to go on my gravestone at this point. Yes, all those symptoms can be caused by one or a combination of extensions. No, I’m not surprised the issue went away after you disabled your extensions. #browserLife #QA #ManifestV3Now Posted on Vivaldi Social on

🐧 Here are some documentation for Vivaldi’s new “Decryption failed: risk of data loss” dialog that might appear on startup for #Linux users. I might have forgotten to prepare the documentation page for this feature before it went live. https://forum.vivaldi.net/post/762768 Posted on Vivaldi Social on

I’ll want Corning’s new Gorilla Armor glass in my next smartphone. It’s anti-glare properties look amazing on the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra. I’m hoping we’ll see it in more affordable devices from other manufacturers soon! #betterLivingThroughChemestry Posted on Bluesky on

Hate those pesky consent dialogs? Give #Consent-O-Matic a try! This is a better approach (causes less site-issues) than whichever ones you might have tried in the past. Available for most desktop browsers. #CMP #browserExtensions consentomatic.au.dk https://consentomatic.au.dk/ Posted on Bluesky on

My #Zstandard decompression browser test pages now actually works in Chromium and Firefox (with the right experimental flags enabled). Before today, the decompression test was accidentally double-compressed. #WebDev https://www.daniel.priv.no/tools/zstd-browser-test/ Posted on Bluesky on

One of my home ISPs just enabled #IPv6. I’ve not had IPv6 at home in 6,5 years. Unfortunately, it was my slow non-symmetric backup provider and not my main symmetric-gigabit speeds provider. I’ll need to turn off IPv6 on my end to keep routing through the much faster IPv4-only provider. 🤷♂️ Posted on Bluesky on
