  • “Mark Zuckerberg’s phone number appeared among the leaked data of Facebook users, according to a researcher”

    This is the same guy who spent a ton of $$$ to protect his own privacy (bought a house to live in…then bought the surrounding houses so no one could see into his yard, his wedding was 100% private, no media in a completely isolated area), and yet makes it his life’s work to catalog other people’s info without their consent (whether they signed up for Facebook or not), and then sell it off to 3rd parties (also without the users’ consent). And then throws a tantrum when hearing that people will be allowed to opt out of being tracked if they want. So…yeah…screw him. 😤

    GPORG Update || 2021.04.03

    Features

    • Status Archive pages — auto-added Youtube and Vimeo poster images as the “featured image” for the respective status updates.
    • Cool. New. Tag. Showcase. On the front page. For folks not familiar with GPORG and want to know what GPORG has to offer.

    Improvements

    • Mobile – moved the hamburger menu button to the bottom middle of the screen, for thumbs to reach easily. (Also added a cool animation where it changes from a normal hamburger menu icon to an arrow).
    • Added some CSS black magic to make the scrollbar on the menu thinner and simpler. This only works on webkit browsers (Chrome and Safari), hence the black magic part (as a Firefox user, I mean…). I’m too used to having Mac OS set up so the scrollbars don’t actually show up unless you’re scrolling and didn’t think about how it looks on Windows.
    • Made some accessibility & best practice improvements to make Lighthouse happy.
    • Made the image headers on all pages taller. This makes it easier for me to hunt down images that would look great in this particular aspect ratio (instead of behind ridiculously widescreen, it’s just über widescreen).

    Bug Fixes

    • Fixed an issue where the lazyloading wouldn’t work.
