Well, they waited for Pocketpair to become big enough to give them money, and not too big to risk losing against them.

Only some countries need VPNs. If your country doesn't care about piracy (e.g. Italy, Spain or Eastern Europe) just don't bother paying for a VPN.

Is it stable yet to use it? I've seen it and it looks promising, but it's also under active development.

Add a private torrent indexer and/or Usenet and it's perfection.

PurelyMail is a great and cheap service. It's like $10 per year. You just set up some records (MX and TXT) on your domain provider and that's it.

You could also self-host email, but then you need a server that's always powered on and it adds much complexity, so I suggest to use a managed service instead.

The good thing about using your own domain is that you're not tied to any service. You could migrate to any other provider (such as ProtonMail, FastMail, etc.) without ever changing your email address on all services.

It's Ukraine, without the article. It's more respectful towards the country.

Companies need to stop using Authy. It's stupid and pointless when we have a open alternative such as the one used by Google Authenticator or Aegis.

I'm going to explain how an Italian bidet works, I don't know if you're referring to some other kind of bidet (e.g. the pressure washers).

You do your thing, then you lightly clean yourself with paper. Don't waste too much paper, just one pass or two will suffice.

Then you get up from the toilet bowl and go on the bidet. In Italy, it's always next to the toilet bowl so you don't have to walk around like a maniac. The best way to sit on the toilet is to "ride it" as if it was a horse (so you face the water).

You open the water, maybe you wait for it to become warm (it depends on the kind of heating system you have in your home, sometimes it takes longer to come out warm). Then you get some soap (we use a specific kind of delicate liquid soap that we call "intimate soap" in Italian). You apply the soap to your private parts and you rinse using the water.

After you've finished cleaning, you dry youself using a personal towel. This is important: you don't share your bidet towel with anybody. We usually use a smaller kind of towel.

And that's how an Italian uses a bidet.

We've created an updated version of Beeper Mini that fixes an issue that caused messages not to be sent or received. We even added in a few new feature improvements: chats now open at the last unread message, and we polished the video player a bit!

We all saw in the news that Simple Mobile Tools got acquired by ZipoApps and they started filling up the free apps with ads.

Luckily, being those apps open source, a new fork has been created.

It's called Fossify. They forked all the apps on GitHub and they have a new maintainer.

Now we just need to wait for their first official release and then... we need to spread the word and make people switch from the old SMT apps to Fossify!

An interesting article that explains the importance of using DTOs (Data Transfer Objects) instead of plain associative arrays.

Stupid Google, this was a great camera feature. I use it all the time.

Don't forget guys, Google My Maps is kept alive by one single Google employee. When he leaves the company, they'll kill the feature for sure.

It wouldn't surprise me if there was one single engineer that kept Photo Spheres alive.

I have an even simpler example: should cars be required not go over the speed limit?
