An unfortunate turn. 1Password has been at the front of the pack in password managers for a long time. There are other options, but 1Password has stood out for features and because “it just works.”
Now I suppose I’ll have to find an alternative. I like Bitwarden’s openness but it isn’t nearly as polished. Maybe this is an opportunity for them or others to rise to the front.
This was the goal all along. If the mail isn’t trustworthy, then there’s no reason to keep it around as a service. So we can get rid of it by transferring it to the highest ~~briber~~ bidder.
Their announcement rubs me the wrong way. It reads as though Linux is the problem. They’re doing Linux “to ensure a safer environment” and to “reinforce a fair competitive environment”
Implying Linux is unsafe, unfair, and anticompetitive (i.e. promotes cheating).
Thank you! I’ve been looking for that for years. I should have thought to check CSPAN.

Now make a file system and shell that plays well with this.
No, you don’t understand.
The $500 million is money the government has to pay to have a public good built.
Whereas the $50 billion is money invested corporations, which they got from their customers… and the government as incentives, tax breaks, and other magic that normal people can’t have. And it makes a private asset instead of a public good.
So obviously the $50 billion is less money.
Lots of folks asked for AI, but not like this!
Of course. The goal here is to not advertise. Make it hard for the bots to find you. With these steps, they can try your IP, but there’s nothing directly on your IP.
You still need proper security. Authentication is a good start, and it has the extra effect of adding an extra layer to prevent the bots from going further if they get lucky and guess a host name.
I really don’t think it is.
