Fair enough, just haven't been in a position to take a look. The screenshot may show it, but it shows it in the scenario they describe should show it.

Based on the feature description, I think it seems more likely that the padlock/cert info isn't shown at all, similar to Chrome's recent change. Though at least Mozilla isn't framing it as if that was somehow information that confuses people.

These actually seem like a useful featureset, but I'd like to know where I can view the certificate information of a site now.

It's fine to feel that way. It's also fine to have that discussion with folks who may not know what the current state of is. But the bottom line is people don't enjoy being told what they're familiar with isn't good or useful, because to them, it is. If it fulfills their day to day needs and wants, there's very little argument to be had.

Microsoft's business practices are scummy, and Apple's closed ecosystem leads them to punish their customers. But not everyone uses their computer for more than what they absolutely require. Many do not have home computers, and may only interact with them for work. I'm a geek, nerd, whatever. I like to tinker, I like to customize, and I like that I have the freedom to do so. But most people just want something they're familiar with, something that works as they expect it to. They don't want to learn to use something at home that isn't the same as work or school. And honestly I think that's fair. There's more going on in their lives, and these days almost everything they need to do is on the internet anyways.

Frankly, I don't have a problem with anyone who uses linux, I do too. I just get tired of the same stupid circlejerks that paint it as some kind of perfect alternative to existing mainstays. I like it, you like it, Lemmy is a deeply nerdy subsect of diehard FOSS ideologies and the power of the personal computer. But dear god is it kind of insufferable at times when it's preaching to converts, and I imagine even less pleasant for those who just don't have a desire to care.

It is also worth considering that yes, MS and Google have definitely dominated the market through superior products, but the standards they've pushed for and established have also made it difficult for other players to enter. If we wanted to say that the federated nature of email is dead, I think that's a fair argument still.

Hosting your own email server is quite difficult. You have to jump through a lot of hoops to land in anyone's mailbox without assistance. If you want to make a mailing list, you basically need to use a mailing service, lest you get blacklisted by major systems owned by MS and Google. Much of this is a byproduct of spam, by which I don't blame Google and MS for doing their best to protect against, but at the same time they have more or less neutered some core aspects of what made email accessible.

He's got the charisma of a dead skunk, but I somehow doubt he won't still involve himself with Pollievre somewhere in there

I think that's where they put Henry

If you're having to re-verify the integrity of your game, I'd be concerned about your storage device. Re-verifying also doesn't mean redownloading unless it needs to retrieve new files to replace ones that are missing or corrupt. Updates are annoyingly common as well, and I'd agree that it would be very nice to be able to just say "nah, I'm good" when it's a single player experience. Unfortunately Valve seems to have waived that feature, instead opting to let developers choose how those updates are made available.

I definitely sympathize with those who have data caps. Those are effectively dead and gone in my part of the world, but I can't imagine trying to traverse today's triple-A gaming landscape otherwise.

Makes sense. I've always heard about it being taken a while before finishing highschool so I figured it was engrained in that curriculum.

Wild. We just have pre-requisite courses that typically qualify you for University programs. You overall grades matter, but there's nothing like an SAT

Schools in the US have tests on Saturdays? We don't really have an equivalent to SATs here in Canada, but I figured it was just a summary exam or something you took like anything else.
