Hello everybody.
Since about half a year, i am recovering from a set of psychological problems (self worth problems, porn addiction, lonelyness, etc) - and i have made great success by repeatedly listening to affirmations, meditation and hypnotherapy. I specifically want to highlight one professional clinical hypnotherapist whose work i enjoy a lot. The link is from their blog, where you can buy a few things to listen to.
But they also have a youtube channel, which i recommend. Some files i enjoyed a lot:
(i am not a professional, my explanation might be slightly wrong)
when you have psychological problems like bad self worth, then this is also implemented in a set of th
Against Google Monopoly in the web: Building a truly independent browser using Servo as a web engine! - Servo, the embeddable, independent, memory-safe, modular, parallel web rendering engine
Let's build another web browser based on Servo!
At the moment, the world of Browsers is currently a big Monopoly favoring Google: Chrome is the most widely used Browser in the world (Some say, even 70% of all users use chrome: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usage_share_of_web_browsers#Summary_tables).
Chrome has a so called Engine at its core. That is the thing which actually understands websites and can translate that to something you as a user can see and interact with. This engine is called Blink. Many other Browsers such as Opera, Internet Explorer, Brave, etc also use Blink.
That means, the developers of Chrome (=Google) have much power over websites, because they control how users see the websites.
The only other engines (and therefore truly independent browsers) are Gecko from Firefox and WebKit from Safari. Firefox however is also dependent on Google and is currently badly managed. (=The user share of firefox declines, the payment of the CEO is rising).
Furthermore, all these browser engines are written in insecure langua
Servo nightlies are now faster, more reliable, 20% smaller, and more compatible with real web apps.

This post doesn’t seem to be here by coincidence.
As the person who posted the original post: i don't like/trust tankies and them being tankies is one of the reason i deleted my lemmy.ml account.
My impression is that Linus also doesn't speak in his post about tankies, but instead i think the word "communist" is equal to some general leftist.
But i kind of agree, that this post can be seen as "in support of tankies". hmm.
my impression is, furthermoore: because the more tankie politics is on lemmygrad.ml, an instance which is easily blocked, it is not that bad / could be worse. I kind of hope instances like beehaw.org have the most users someday, because they are really awesome i think
