I use PWAs for Firefox and they work ok, although I don’t have the issue you mention. For me, in Ubuntu, if I open a link in a PWA for Google Chat, then the link opens in the PWA firefox window, not my main browser window. Maybe there’s a setting I missed?
Also, the PWA acts like a separate browser, so opening Google Chat requires you to log in again to Google on the same machine. And if you open up a paywalled link, and it opens in the PWA, then you have to log in, even if you’re logged in in Firefox.
Overall 5/7 rating on usability, but did allow me to get completely off of Chrome
I don’t particularly like Linus, but he was bearable in this video. As someone who assumed this was a SIM swap, I was genuinely as confused as he was playing it up when he was able to place calls but not receive them. That was really interesting.

public facing is fine
Not exactly, if it is something unintentionally public facing, that can get you charged with access a computer without authorization under the the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act. This happened in this case: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goatse_Security#AT&T/iPad_email_address_leak
sending a HTTP request with a valid ICC-ID embedded inside it to the AT&T website, the website would reveal the email address associated with that ICC-ID.
On November 20, 2012, Auernheimer was found guilty of one count of identity fraud and one count of conspiracy to access a computer without authorization

This is the wrong approach.
People are having too many kids!
Heterosexuality is the problem. We need to tear sexuality and gender down.
Did uptobox provide seed boxes for torrenting, or what was the service like?
FWIW this isn’t always true. A few months ago, I needed to add an email to my Zelle account on Chase, and had to call them. I initiated the call and they did issue a text message verification to the phone number in my account while on the phone to confirm.
Wow TIL about the use of underscore in an interactive session.
Also “The Scary Door”, a twilight zone type show within the universe of Futurama.
If I told my boss I have concepts of a plan during an important call with clients, I’d be fired. The fact he said this thinking it would absolve him of having to actually outline actual policy shows how empty the campaign is on anything of substance.
I have great hopes for this meme and hope it is as influential as “binders of women” in showing the absurd thinking behind the most important job in the world.
This is kinda the plot of a Black Mirror episode, Striking Vipers.
Now do VHS vs. Beta Max. Better specs don’t always make a better product. This is coming from someone who uses Android, 3 or 4 of the specs I don’t really care about. posts like these just divide us into tribes and that’s not useful for anyone.
I guess I never thought about this but are the alec baldwin and harrison ford Jack Ryans the same person? Ben Affleck was assume is a reboot, but now I don’t really know.
The issue isn’t really people on the fence for Trump or Harris but mainly with generating turnout. After Biden’s poor debate performance, people didn’t change their mind and decide to vote for Trump, they became apathetic and maybe wouldn’t show up to vote.
Harris doesn’t need to persuade people to abandon Trump, she needs to get people excited to show up to vote.
How’d they forget about City Limits?
One of Vance’s former friends detailed the downfall of their friendship as Vance rose in politics. Despite their differences they were still friendly until 2021. Full article : https://www.nytimes.com/2024/07/27/us/politics/jd-vance-friend-transgender.html
During their last text exchange that was outlined in the article, they had this to say:
“I know I can’t change your mind but the political voice you have become seems so far from the man I got to know in law school,” wrote Nelson, later explaining their position “as a trans person who accessed needed health care so I could live a full life.”
It does seem like Vance did 180 from someone equating Trump to Hitler to Trump’s running mate in just a few years.
Not sure if it’s what you’re looking for, but I’d say the mystery of the dead bear cub in central park 10 years ago. This was minor news back then and basically was forgotten about, until RFK Jr. (former third party presidential candidate) admitted to being the person behind it, confessing it to a confused Roseanne Barr.
Not sure the genre or trope, but Poker Face (and 6 Feet Under), the additional subgenre for me is “who’s gonna die in the first scene”.
