My flashcart's GB emulator doesn't have a color palette that matched perfectly, but works well enough! https://i.imgur.com/ePtY5Jf.jpg

I haven't personally toyed with either, but I've seen these used with increasing frequency.

Personally, yes. I'm sitting around 50% right now, but have no reservations upgrading if/when I reach the need to. It's something you'll have to play with yourself to see if you can get it working in a way that makes sense for you - I know a few people who felt it didn't provide enough structure for them.
Re:Using Let's Encrypt for Internal Servers (2018) on Sunday March 10, 2019 @04:17PM (#19354156)
Chrome and Safari (the only browsers enforcing CT logs at the moment) can both be configured to disable enforcement for certain URLs.

Already public info? Indifferent. It's already scraped (and then leaked) by so many parties as is.
"With respect to your complaint that Cox intercepts and injects our own data in order to display alerts, etc, we note that browser alerts are a method Cox utilizes to bring customers’ attention to important information that may affect their Internet experience."

They'll also appear if you're nearing your data allowance or if their email service (that you probably don't use) is undergoing maintenance. When I last asked, there is no possible way to opt-out or disable these.

Ah, you're right. I vaguely thought I was missing someone else.
Re:Comodo CEO Forum Post on Lets Encrypt Trademark on Thursday June 23, 2016 @06:12PM (#11964679)
He states "We invented the 90 day free ssl. Why are they copying our business model of 90 day free ssl is the question! Comodo has provided and built a Free SSL model that give SSL for free for 90 days since 2007!"

I was curious because I had never heard of anyone providing free SSL other than StartSSL before Let's Encrypt (and Amazon).

It's a trial. No free renewals, manual or automatic.

"Free SSL certificates are valid for 90 days and are limited to one issuance per domain."

Re:Yakyak: Electron Chat Client for Google Hangouts on Friday June 17, 2016 @08:51PM (#11926451)
For me, one of the biggest draws over the official client are that it opens links in my OS default browser, not just Chrome. They used to do this, but have made changes so that links only open in Chrome. There's a smattering of threads on this issue with no response from Google or the Hangouts team.

I worked in university IT for a year, focused on student's personal machines. A good majority of malware we experienced installed extensions and reconfigured browser preferences.

I understand why Mozilla and Google have done similar things to restrict extension installation, but can't help but think there has to be a better way for users who know what they're doing.

Re:Domain-validated SSL will soon be free from the large CAs on Wednesday November 25, 2015 @02:33PM (#10629084)
Yeah, their points are all pretty shaky. I've been a fan of Namecheap for awhile because of their past support for a better internet, but it's extremely disappointing to see this post from them.

I guess I didn't expect them to put their profits over what's best for the web.

Re:Domain-validated SSL will soon be free from the large CAs on Sunday November 22, 2015 @04:39PM (#10611598)
They've further edited the post to remove a lot of the misleading content, but not all.
Re:SSL from Namecheap: What's the difference? on Sunday November 22, 2015 @04:38PM (#10611595)
They've updated their post to remove a lot of the misleading content, but not all.

Here's a good summary http://blog.kelunik.com/2015/11/22/namecheap-ssl.html

Cox Communications also injects js to display downtime messages and data usage alerts when nearing the upper limits of their now enforced data caps. Their response to a FCC complaint was essentially "it's convenient for our users"
