lawsuit claims

It’s right in the title. So you claim it is true. I can also claim that you sell my personal data. Doesn’t make it true.

Let that lawsuit play out, and wait for the verdict.

Mega, Filen

while the usual stuff on Windows is pretty useless

“useless” or “useful” to you. That’s my point. Someone who does not have any use for Libreoffice will get just as annoyed as you would get with a pre-linked Office-Suite.

When I last installed Windows I had to google where do download […] On Linux most came preinstalled

You can’t have it both ways.

On one day, you complain about all the so called “bloatware” that’s preinstalled on Windows (more “pre-linked” and easily installed, and these “links” are easily deleted).

The next day, you complain that the specific subset of software you want to use is not preinstalled on Windows.

Lastly, the way you go about finding where to get your software, that’s more of a philosophical question. Do I want someone else to curate a list of available software, or do I want to visit the publisher’s website and get it directly from the source?

I did just that just yesterday/today. Built a new PC from scratch, added the SSD with Windows from the old PC, booted up, and it worked just fine. I didn’t even need to reinstall the graphics driver.

Their browser says incognito mode offers protections that their website then runs roughshod over.

That’s the point of my comment. I won’t say “don’t sue Google”, I’ll say “sue Google, but actually read what it says when you open an incognito window”. Offers protections against other people who use this device. And that’s it.

I think we might agree on the last part, but that’s exactly the point of my comment. If these people are suing Google for privacy invasion tactics, all the more power to them.

But the headline infers the opposite: “lawsuit over ‘incognito mode’ tracking”. This reads like the plaintiffs don’t understand what this “incognito mode” actually does.

Am I reading this right? As far as I can see, the complaint seems to be that Google would be “tracking” people even if they browse in any browser’s incognito mode.

Of course they do. If I open a private window in Firefox, and then login to Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Reddit, or any other website, these websites can try to track me. How would any browser control what happens or doesn’t happen on the server side of things?

These plaintiffs would be better off sueing the companies of these websites for ignoring privacy laws and continuing to add tracking scripts to their sites.

Yes, there are browsers that try to send as little personal information as possible, like the Tor Browser, but even that one can’t disable a Facebook server’s internal logging data - how could it? All modern browsers make it quite clear what their respective incognito mode does - and what it doesn’t do.

“A lot of people”

Translation: “no one, it was me”

It’s been almost 3 years, and a full load will last about 2 days. That said, I only use it intermittently throughout the day, and not for gaming or watching videos. That’s what other devices are for.

Cheers! I hope my 4a survives until there’s another one of that size. I feels like most other phones are getting unnecessarily bigger. The camera software is a big plus, too

Now you see why the people at Hogwarts have a big feast every other day. And I don’t recall the more corpulent ones using that much magic

Haha, that’s a really good replacement until I find the one I am looking for. The image I’m thinking of really showed a boy, not a grown man.

right on que!

Also, pleeeaaase, someone find me that ancient image macro of a boy, maybe he had a moustache, or maybe it was drawn on, he was raising an eyebrow, and the only caption on it was “que?”. I’ve been searching for that forever.

Glad to see that the game has plenty of unpaid paying beta testers.
