going to a website with ads Use Firefox. Install uBlock Origin. On your phone too. You can now tick that one off the list too.

That's not how I've heard it pronounced. Not in the north at least. The T is mute. It's "sinjin" (rhymes with Ken).

Yup, Sinjin is definitely a thing.

Source: I know a St. John and he told me the right way to pronounce his name is indeed "Sinjin"

I already suspected as much.

It's because you've not stared at the blue glow long enough.

It could be true, I guess. It could be Western propaganda too. It doesn't take much to reason a country as underdeveloped and isolated as NK lacks an effective military.

However, maybe they don't need to be particularly good to further Russia's interests. NK army may be good enough as cannon fodder or purely for defence purposes, as border guards or patrols.

Just use Google Docs then. Yes, it's Google. Yes, it will somewhat tie you into their ecosystem but Google Docs are free, get regular updates and are pretty good overall. I've been using Google Docs for many years now. I occasionally use Office365 for work and Google Docs is just as good, if not better.

Nope, don't rotate passwords. Just don't. Best case scenario, you're wasting your time; worst case, people will actually make their passwords less secure by rotating them, e.g. some people would happily change "password123" to "password1" and call it a day.

Just pick a looong password once, make sure you don't reuse it elsewhere, and you'll be fine.

This is as per the NIST latest guidelines.

The article addresses this point.

This change is justified by the fact that a user can simply log out and view another user’s posts anyway. Except that’s not entirely true. Since Elon Musk took over the site, being logged out of X makes it very hard to view a user’s profile, individual posts are viewable but viewing an account triggers a log in pop up.

So technically it is possible for a logged out user to view your tweets but it's a lot more inconvenient. Anything you can do to make it not worth their while helps.

With this change they won't even have to put any effort anymore to stalk your content on X.

 

With evidence mounting on the failure to limit global warming to 1.5C, do you think global carbon emissions will be low enough by 2050 to at least avoid the most catastrophic climate change doomsday scenarios forecast by the turn of the century?

I am somewhat hopeful most developed countries will get there but I wonder if developing countries will have the ability and inclination to buy into it as well.
