[15:07:15] <Bender> [SoylentNews] - First Dual-Channel IDE? - https://sylnt.us - designed-by-Betteridge?
[15:08:53] <Runaway1956> Odd thing about duckduckgo browser for desktop
[15:09:18] <janrinok> ?
[15:09:21] <Runaway1956> to get on the beta tester list, you need a twatter account, with which you PM the lead developer
[15:09:35] <Runaway1956> if you don't have twatter, you can't beta test
[15:09:46] <Runaway1956> but I thought the whole idea was privacy?
[15:10:17] <AmyMalik> D:
[15:10:53] <janrinok> well, if all he uses it for is to vet new beta testers, I don't think it is much worse that IRC or anything else. It is a surprising choice but if he already has and uses T then perhaps it was his easiest option
[15:11:21] <Runaway1956> I suppose, but that leaves me out -
[15:11:32] <janrinok> ... and we all occasionally do stupid things
[15:11:46] * Runaway1956 sits in corner and cries because he is left out
[15:37:00] <chromas> Why does he need to vet beta testers?
[15:38:33] <Runaway1956> he only wants veteran beta testers?
[15:38:46] <Runaway1956> or vetinarian testers?
[15:38:47] <janrinok> to avoid time wasters, those who want to discover weaknesses and exploit them rather than report them and get them fixed, those who offer to do something but never produce anything....
[15:39:11] <chromas> How will he detect that by twitter pm?
[15:39:37] <janrinok> by asking questions I suppose - hey, I'm not saying it is a good idea!
[15:39:44] <Runaway1956> He has the keys to Twitter, and can see everything you've ever done on tweeter
[15:39:58] <chromas> Plus it's probably just yet another chromium browser, so any secret bugs will be ones he's made himself
[15:40:12] <Runaway1956> Either that, or he answers messages with "meet me on 4Chan"
[15:40:18] <chromas> I hope so
[15:40:36] <janrinok> nooods or it never happened!
[15:40:53] <Runaway1956> The hype says it's not a rebranded chrome - they're supposedly hooking into operating system IDEs
[15:41:05] <chromas> haha
[15:41:54] <chromas> There's chromium, Firefox, and that's it. Everything else is too simple for today's tangled web we've weaved
[15:43:14] * Runaway1956 remembers when Chrome was first announced, couldn't wait for the chance to download it
[15:43:56] * Runaway1956 also remembers Firefox Milestone 0.5, it took most of a year before FF 1 was finally released
[15:45:48] <chromas> Remember when Firefox took years to get session saving? and zoom?
[15:46:13] * Runaway1956 thinks hard . . . .
[15:46:18] <Runaway1956> zoom?
[15:46:23] <chromas> page zooming
[15:46:37] <chromas> for a really long time, zoom would just change the font size
[15:47:18] <Runaway1956> Ahhh, yeah, remember something like that - but I don't use zoom, I just buy bigger monitors
[15:47:49] <FatPhil> isn't there a setting for 'text only' vs. 'whole page' zooming?
[15:48:08] <Runaway1956> Isn't that 'reader mode'?
[15:48:27] <chromas> maybe. whole page zooming used to require an extension that was super slow
[15:48:39] <FatPhil> I use NoSquint in palemoon
[15:49:03] <FatPhil> https://github.com
[15:49:04] <systemd> ^ 03GitHub - EbonJaeger/nosquint: NoSquint is a Firefox add-on that allows you to adjust the text-only and full-page zoom levels as well as color settings both globally (for all sites) and per site.
[15:49:06] <Runaway1956> Squinting was good enough for my grandpa, it's good enough for me
[15:50:41] <Runaway1956> Also, remember that the Kyle Rittenhouse seemed to be hung on 'pinch to zoom' for a day or six, lol
[15:51:08] <chromas> I think there was a lawsuit for that
[15:51:21] <chromas> Not Kenosha Kyle, but pinch-to-zoom
[15:51:56] <chromas> pinch4kyle
[15:52:00] <Runaway1956> sounds like a legal advertisement
[15:52:08] <Runaway1956> "there's a suit for that!"

[16:49:36] <cybiko123> Hi there. I'm a long-time reader, and represent a hosting company based in Albany, NY. As I understand it, you're currently paying Linode about $3K a year. We'd like to donate a VM (or two, or three, or... etc.) to the project to help the way we know best. You'd get at least the same amount of CPU, RAM, and storage as you've got now, and a direct line to the owners. What do you think?
[16:52:20] <FatPhil> cybiko123: I've prodded all the admins so they see your message. Costs are certainly something that need to be addressed, so thanks for the offer.
[16:53:11] <cybiko123> Not a problem!

My experience with the site is primarily at a higher level of abstraction (I'm a relative newbie when it comes to servers and hardware). :/ OTOH, I will gladly pass your generous offer along to staff who deals with the site at that level! Please PM your e-mail address and I'll forward it along if you would like. Thanks again!
[19:55:14] <cybiko123> Sure thing, just sent you a PM
[20:31:11] <Bytram> cybiko123: Got it and passed along that I have it to admin staff. Will release (privately!) only upon request. Thank You!

[21:59:44] <FatPhil> For those interested in covid/travel policy around the world - as I stepped off the plane yesterday, walked down some corridors, and could have been on a tram home within minutes had I not volunteered to take a swab test (planning on hosting a gathering in 2 days, don't want to take risks, gonna have another tomorrow just in case.) Not even *any* papers checking. TBH, I was shocked.
[22:08:53] <Bytram> FatPhil: So... that suggests that those around you as you traveled were similarly unchecked? YIKES!
