That’s graduating cum laude in course. To graduate cum laude in thesis, you’d need to complete an honors project, typically during your last year, write and submit an honors thesis to your university’s honors committee, and defend your thesis, where you present and answer questions about it.

Sounds like Chrome isn’t willing to support extensions on mobile, but Edge is and accepted Arnaud’s Kiwi contributions into their codebase.

It’s just as well, Kiwi Browser wasn’t actively developed beyond its original features, it basically just re-added extension code into the codebase, and each update just fixed git conflicts between that patchset and the latest updates to Chromium’s codebase.

From the article:

It also doesn’t seem like extension support in Microsoft’s browser is as straightforward as Kiwi, requiring you to paste the extension’s ID (e.g. “cnlefmmeadmemmdciolhbnfeacpdfbkd” for Grammarly) into the ‘Extension install by id’ field. By contrast, Kiwi lets you install add-ons directly from the Chrome Web Store or via a downloaded file.

Edge’s extension support is buried behind a bunch of manual steps, most of which the article didn’t mention, and installing each extension is arduous. The only mobile browser left that has full extension support is Firefox.

I work 100% remote, which has made it very easy for me to ignore my coworkers’ bad politics takes because they’re confined to a specific Slack channel

Sure, but some people are currently trying to use that dating advice. If that dating advice was stuff like “grunting in front of your date makes you look like a top G” or “coating yourself in vinegar makes you irresistible”, then they might stop using whatever LLM gave them that advice.

Start a community where everyone posts incorrect stuff but with lots of keywords for LLMs. Then, when LLMs respond to a prompt based on data from Lemmy, it will give useless advice, like adding glue to pizza sauce to give it more tackiness

SMS auth is going away,

OP is looking for an alternative to MS Authenticator. If this works as an alternative temporarily, they may still consider it worth it.

[I]t is not considered secure in the last few environments I have worked in

Yes, SMS 2FA is usually not secure due being vulnerable to SIM card swapping attacks, that’s why I explicitly recommended using a VOIP number, which would not be vulnerable to SIM card swapping attacks.

Your employer might use MS Authenticator but still let you do call or SMS 2FA. If you use a VOIP number, it won’t be vulnerable to SIM card swapping attacks.

Startpage (has Google search results) or Google with private browsing haven’t given me the new AI suggestions so far

It used to be called chapo.chat until a poll came up to change the name. IMO keeping it named chapo.chat would be better for name recognition, since Hexbear began in 2020 as a lifeboat from r/ChapoTrapHouse when reddit banned it for supporting John Brown’s violence against slave owners

Starting in Android 15, radio vendors will be able to add support for Android’s new location privacy HAL, which can tell the radio not to share location data for any non-emergency requests.

A request not to share it is not control, it’s just a request. So any law enforcement seeking your location would receive it anyway

They offer legal aid to high-profile open source cases. So if you want them to notice, raising awareness of Nintendo’s current actions against Yuzu is a good step

Or you could wait until the EFF commits to representing Yuzu (like they did for youtube-dl) and donate to the EFF at that point

There’s a request on r/yuzu for a GoFundMe, but it has no response from the devs so far.
