Can someone please explain why not to use Brave browser ?
Looking into privacytests.org, the main developer behind it is someone who contributes to Brave source code. He may not be officially affiliated with the company, but it would be hard to ignore any sort of bias towards Brave.

I don't particularly care for Epic, but this is some gatekeeping bullshit from Apple.

Found a security bug in LMDE6, need some help
Go ahead and report it to the Mint team. Even if it is an issue upstream, they will verify the issue and then report it as well. Never hesitate to report a bug you find, especially if it's a security or privacy issue.
Even if the bug is a duplicate, it helps to know other people are having the same issue. At worst they will mark your report as a duplicate, which will let you know they are aware of the issue.

Kellogg’s CEO advice to cash-strapped shoppers: Let them eat Corn Flakes for dinner
Name brand cereal has gotten so expensive. I swapped to store brands and haven't noticed a huge difference. Probably better to stop eating cereal in general.

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024's launch has been marred by long load times, server issues and now it has overwhelmingly negative reviews
Reply in thread
It's a consistent issue for Microsoft releases. You would think a company that sells cloud services would be capable of having a smooth launch.

[Fedora 39] Why does Discover say there's updates while `dnf` say there's none? Also, why does Discover need to reboot to install said updates?
Those updates in Discover are for flatpak, not dnf. You can verify that with flatpak update.
As for discover wanting to restart to do their update, that's a fedora thing for an extra level of safety while updating. You can read about it here.

A PR disaster: Microsoft has lost trust with its users, and Windows Recall is the straw that broke the camel's back

That will rely on businesses moving away from Windows. That is where they make a ton of their money with Enterprise licenses and Office 365 subscriptions.

Man accused in UnitedHealthcare CEO killing faces federal charge that’s eligible for death penalty

I understand the overlords have requested this guy get every charge and penalty that he can, but they have to understand that the general population sympathizes with him on some level.

Memes on c/Games - yes or no?
I voted no. I would prefer this community to be more like r/Games than r/gaming. I would rather the community be about game news, reviews, and discussions.
Allowing a single day of the week will lead to more work on the moderators than a general ban. It also makes the community less usable on those days. I also worry that it will destroy viewing the community by top posts.

Miffed ‘Rainbow Six Seige’ player sentenced for swatting Ubisoft Montreal’s offices
3 years of community service feels pretty light for a serious offense. Swatting has lead to deaths and we need to do more to treat it like the crime that it is.

Sony needs to stop with these live service games. Nobody is interested in a new one. Everyone who wants to play one, already has their game chosen and do not move from it.

Disney wants a wrongful death lawsuit thrown out because the plaintiff had Disney+
Reply in thread
It's meant for B2B lawsuits, so they can both avoid extra litigation costs. They forced it onto consumers because they wanted to win more. They get to choose their arbitrator and avoid more public cases.
There has been some push back in recent years. This article by Consumer Reports shows some ways as to how people have been fighting back.

I made the swap from Nvidia to AMD without getting a more powerful card. It just isn't worth it. Sure, the fact that I can use Wayland and open source drivers is nice, but you don't gain any extra performance. I would wait until you are ready to upgrade your card and just get and AMD card at that point.

Fairphone 4—the repairable, sustainable smartphone—is coming to the US
This is pretty exciting. I wish it would have happened sooner though. It was at the top of my list when I was looking at phones last year, but it was still unavailable when I decided to go with the Pixel 7.
