i realized that the problem with an hosts file is the the system will completely bypass the dns server and directly contact the address. There is the need of something that enforces an IP address blocklist at the router level like opnsense
Fun fact: Microsoft edge for Linux has a copilot button. But they forgot to implement it, so it just takes space on the menu bar (cannot be removed)
Right, it won’t ask the DNS server to resolve it, the solution requires a much more expensive blocking on firewall
Difference between Open Source and “open” source
This is “open” source and it was the main reason it got forked (lots of proprietary bits included as binary, impossible to send a PR, obfuscated code)
It’s “open” exclusively for marketing “our product is better because it’s open source” and mostly because in this way they can use GPL 3 code for libraries without paying for a different license
Fuck them
Probably making sure that the sweet telemetry reaches their server after the URL got included in some blocklist. Solves nothing as who included the URL, now will include the IP address.
In Italy if you get fired (not if you quit voluntarily) it’s mandatory by law to get 75% of salary for 104 weeks (but from the six month it will get reduced by a 3% monthly) plus the severance package is at least 6.9% of the yearly gross salary multiplied by the number of years worked there.
On top of that, most union contracts (97% of workers in the country) increase that amount of money that the company has to pay.
Finally, it’s a bureaucratic mess. You can’t just fire employees with an email sent Friday afternoon and expect to get the offices empty on Monday. In order to fire more than 5 employees over 120 days the company has to get agreement with unions (money incentive to resign; early retirement; higher and/or longer severance pay) and if it’s doesn’t get an agreement within 45 days it will need to get an agreement with the government (another 30 days) where need to pay at least a 5850 euro tax for each fired employee. So from the cuts announcement, workers have at least 2 months of full pay and full work.
The only way to fire employees “American style”, “from today you’re unemployed” in Italy it’s bankruptcy (chapter 7) but proceeds from the liquidation Will be used to pay

Yes. Here is how the icon was in August 2025, before the launch of apple liquid ass:
And Google home had a similar “glass” icon redesign
We all know that every other manufacturer is gonna copy apple, exactly how basically overnight everyone switched to the flat icons of iOS 5
Example: Google has already redesigned the Google maps icon on Android to look more “glassy”

It is a concern when by design you can literally spend the money again within ten minutes by choosing an higher fee.
It’s not designed for used as a currency. A block gets mined every ten minutes and can contain only 3000 transactions.
For comparison, Mastercard processes 3000 transactions in 0.15 seconds instead of ten minutes.
Can you imagine being in a store and waiting your payment to be confirmed in 2-3 blocks to avoid double spending
30 minutes to confirm (if paid enough for fees) vs 0.15 seconds
And so much efficient!
To mine one block, the global network consumes approximately 2.5 to 3.0 GWh. 3000 transactions = 1 MWh per transaction
