Has anyone used this modded windows OS?

I've seen quite a few videos on youtube of it performing waaay better than normal windows & using less resources than even tiny10/11 windows.

I've seen quite a few people say they've used it for years with no issues or accounts stolen, but then I've also seen a few people claim that their version had malware on it- however I've also found that apparently there's fake sites with malware infested versions of it floating around & apparently there's versions of it on piracy sites that come pre-loaded with a bunch of pirated games, so perhaps those are where those malware reports are coming from.

Inactive Google Account Policy

A Google Account gives you Google-wide access to most Google products, such as Google Ads, Gmail, and YouTube, using the same username and password.

An inactive Google Account is an account that has not been used within a 2-year period. Google reserves the right to delete an inactive Google Account and its activity and data if you are inactive across Google for at least two years.

Google also reserves the right to delete data in a product if you are inactive in that product for at least two years. This is determined based on each product's inactivity policies.

How Google defines activity

A Google Account that is in use is considered active. Activity might include these actions you take when you sign in or while you’re signed in to your Google Account:

• Reading or sending an email
• Using Google Drive
• Watching a YouTube video
• Sharing a photo
• Downloading an app
• Using Google Search
• Using Sign in with Google to sign in to a third-party app or service

Google Account activity is demonstrated by account and not by device. You can take actions on any surface where you’re signed in to your Google Account, for example, on your phone.

If you have more than one Google Account set up on your device, you’ll want to make sure each account is used within a 2-year period.

What happens when your Google Account is inactive

When your Google Account has not been used within a 2-year period, your Google Account, that is then deemed inactive, and all of its content and data may be deleted. Before this happens, Google will give you an opportunity to take an action in your account by:

• Sending email notifications to your Google Account
• Sending notifications to your recovery email, if any exists

Google products reserve the right to delete your data when your account has not been used within that product for a 2-year period.

December 1, 2023 is the earliest a Google Account will be deleted due to this policy.

We are building a framework on top of React and Node.js but with a twist. It has a declarative config file that let's you add auth or async jobs in just few lines of code.

Some of the features

• auth: email, Google, Github, username
• jobs: scheduled, triggered
• type-safe backend <> frontend RPC
• Prisma migrations
• Auth UI which autoupdates as you change the Wasp config

Looking for feedback

If you tried it or want to try it now, I would love to get some feedback on what's missing. What does it miss to be competitive?

To be clear, this does not tackle user review, it's about editorial reviews where companies would write good reviews for their products under the guise of a review site.

This would especially have a big impact on VPN review sites.

It’s possible that the enforcement of a rate limit isn’t because of AI scraping, but rather because they failed to migrate before the June 30th deadline.

This is hilarious. It appears that Twitter is DDOSing itself.

The Twitter home feed's been down for most of this morning. Even though nothing loads, the Twitter website never stops trying and trying.

In the first video, notice the error message that I'm being rate limited. Then notice the jiggling scrollbar on the right.

The second video shows why it's jiggling. Twitter is firing off about 10 requests a second to itself to try and fetch content that never arrives because Elon's latest genius innovation is to block people from being able to read Twitter without logging in.

This likely created some hellish conditions that the engineers never envisioned and so we get this comedy of errors resulting in the most epic of self-owns, the self-DDOS.

Unbelievable. It's amateur hour.

So today I clicked a twitter link because companies like to use it for official announcements, only to be greeted with a login page. Was annoyed then I remembered nitter exists. It just prompted me to install Privacy Redirect which I should have done ages ago.

Looks like twitter waited for the reddit API changes to do push this change to try to do it under the radar.

Only available for the iPhone 4S for now, with more device support planned. Both released roughly the same time, with the 4S coming out on October 2011, and iOS 5.1 on March 2012.

In France there is currently a criminal case in which the justice department is accusing people of terrorism for using Signal, WhatsApp, VPN and encrypted mails.
