A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

No, but thanks for asking. The rabbit hole still goes far further.

Ghostarchive is apparently blocked from The Atlantic, and other archive options aren't friendly to VPNs, so I'm afraid I can't provide an archive link.

I'll give them this: They certainly stayed on brand.

At least it still loads if you turn javascript off.

How anyone uses the web without NoScript baffles me, but people still use Chrome, too, so I don't think I'm in the mainstream in terms of my internet use,

When that is the only browser that actually works for Jira, Confluence, and the like at work, then yes boo hoo we absolutely do! 😭

Jira and confluence have always worked fine on my Firefox 🤔

It's probably our internal modifications, but Jira especially iirc is known to be quite "fragile".

Edit: ofc the main point here is that companies pay to test only on Chrome, then consider the matter settled, even while Firefox decides to strike out on its own in so many ways regardless. I have no choice but to use Chrome... or to find another job.
