That was pretty common some years back. Earlier versions of popular discussion boards like phpBB and stuff would store everything in the mysql db in plain text. The practice only changed when sql injections became popular with script kiddies. Malicious admins would also just check user's email and password and try them elsewhere, reusing passwords was even more commonplace then than it still is today.

    I have uninstalled One Drive and enabled a system policy that supposedly sets the default save location to c:\user\documents, and after every single fucking update it defaults back to one drive, hangs for 30 seconds until the stupid ass system realizes that there's no such thing present, and then it opens a "save as" dialogue with some arbitrary path in %user_apps/appdata/onedrive.

    GNARF.

    No, I never liked Twitter, so I can't even begin to bother about mastodon. Never heard of the other one.

    I tried the Instagram clone for a few days (forgot the name), but it was so empty I left it again.

    Since FF 140 I'm getting an icon next to the url whenever I'm opening a website with DRM embedded content, such as discord if someone posted a link to some audio player.

    Now normally I ignore those icons, but this particular one is shaking violently whenever you access the website - and not just the first time, but even when you navigate between tabs, which is super annoying.

    So I was wondering if there is a way to deactivate it permanently?
