What I meant was that info already exists. It was sent using older crypto.

I think about this often. I think that Millennials, and especially Gen Z, will be the best-documented lives in history. Almost everything you've ever done online is sitting on a hard drive somewhere. Once the encryption schemes are broken, posterity will have full access to all of it. They'll probably study us for hundreds of years—possibly thousands (if we even make it that far as a species).

I've also wondered if all of that data collected about a person could be used to recreate them—a digital copy. It probably wouldn't be perfect, but I bet it would be close enough to be useful.

I'm definitely not excited for people to have access to and study my college Facebook account :⁠-⁠P

Agreed. Sorry. I often hear this kind of stuff IRL from my relatives, so I might be prejudiced.

People bragging about their kids is irritating. However, I hope the girl ends up being a Linux guru :-)

I'm dumb, and had to reread what you wrote. I thought you meant tabs this whole time (doh). I haven't even used an iPad before, so I didn't know that feature existed. I don't believe I've ever seen multiple windows of Firefox on Android (but you can have multiple apps open side-by-side).

I think it is unlikely Mozilla would support that feature, given the lack of resources and demand; iPad's are niche.

That is actually somewhat useful. I don't know if that use-case is worth it to me, personally, to have a potentially insecure device on my home network, but I suppose you could give it its own network and write decent firewall rules to protect your other gear.

That's so weird, then, that it'd be so radically different than it is on Android. Why do you think that is?

Years ago, I was looking for something similar. Used turtl for almost a year before switching to Joplin. Joplin was great, but not quite what I needed, and when Logseq came around, I switched again to it. Again, Logseq was just not exactly what I needed (though it is pretty powerful!) and I was worried what would happen when the devs either made it paid or abandoned the project, like so many before it.

The solution to my woes was Emacs. Now, I won't pretend the learning curve isn't steep, but there just isn't anything that compares to it. Org-mode + Org-roam + notdeft is amazing, and I've never even looked for anything else since becoming accustomed to it. Plus, you can easily modify the existing tools or write your own to adapt it to your personal style.

You will never regret the time you invest in Emacs.

I'm not sure, but Firefox on iOS isn't true Firefox. To my knowledge, Apple doesn't allow browsers to use anything but their Safari engine. As another user put it, "Firefox on iOS is barely more than a skin for Safari."

I can speak to Firefox on desktop and Android, however: they're fantastic!

tl;dr: If FF sucks on iOS, it's Apple's fault.

No, you do you. I just don't understand the engineers' motivation for creating an IoT fridge.

From the creators of the IoT fridge comes the first IoT toilet, complete with a bowl camera and mic that stares up your ass and notifies your family when the bathroom is in use and whose taking a crap. You can even review your past shits in 4k! 😛

No offense, but wtf does someone need an app for their fridge?

I had a left-handed friend in high-school that just oriented his notebook with the rings on the right (180 degrees rotated).
