I wish more people understood that the reason browsers consume so much RAM and CPU is not just the browser, but mainly badly coded web sites 😕

Spent the night baking bread → spent the morning fighting the Carbon Monoxide alarm in my kitchen 🙃

Ugh, another article titled “Are encrypted messaging apps really secure?” without talking about threat models.

They call out Signal as the most secure option because it's end to end encrypted, which is nice, but what if your threat model is that your phone number leaks? Signal is actively leaking it.

What if your threat model is being unable to send messages reliably in an emergency? Signal is not great at that.

So the answer, as always in security land, is, it depends.
