just ordered @pitrh's PF book from @nostarch, but doing so from #OpenBSD was hard: cloudflare verification that i am not malicious bot was just pain: it did not work in #Firefox, i managed to do order and pay in #Chromium, but accessing profile page never worked. this is crazy. if you make ordering so hard, you don't want me as customer. even though i see i have been customer of theirs since 2011.

Hype for the Future 137/284 → Split View in Chromium

Overview The Chromium Web Browser has recently gained a new feature as of March 17, 2026, known as Split View. With Split View, the Chromium window can be split with two (2) distinct views within a single apparent tab view. However, for the purposes of navigation, the two (2) distinct tabs, known as "left" and "right" views, are accessible by standard keyboard shortcuts otherwise associated with standard tab views. When navigating between tabs, the value of the "left" tab is one less than […]

Und so sieht das finale Dashboard aus. Es holt sich aus einem Google Calendar (per private ICS Url) Kalendereinträge und stellt sie pro Tag dar.

Ich habe versucht, möglichst wenige visuellen Clutter zu haben, damit alles leicht erkennbar ist.

Container Timing: measuring web components performance

An introduction to Container Timing, a new web performance API that lets developers measure when complex components finish painting and shows how to use its native implementation now available behind a Chromium feature flag.

¿Sabían que el proyecto Chromium no nació únicamente de la ingeniería de Google, sino que su motor original fue heredado de un proyecto de software libre mucho más antiguo desarrollado por la comunidad de KDE?

Aunque Chromium y Google Chrome se lanzaron oficialmente el 2 de septiembre de 2008, su base inicial dependía de WebKit, un motor de renderizado que a su vez era una bifurcación de KHTML, creado originalmente en 1998 para el navegador Konqueror. Este vínculo histórico significa que la infraestructura que hoy domina la web moderna tiene raíces profundas en el ecosistema de Linux y el código abierto de finales de los noventa. El nombre "Chromium" fue elegido por Google para representar el metal del cual se obtiene el cromo, estableciendo una analogía donde el proyecto de código abierto es la materia prima y Chrome es el producto final pulido.

Durante sus primeros seis años de desarrollo, el entonces CEO de Google, Eric Schmidt, se opuso a la creación de un navegador propio para evitar "guerras de navegadores" innecesarias. La situación cambió cuando los fundadores Sergey Brin y Larry Page contrataron a desarrolladores provenientes de Firefox y construyeron una demostración tan eficiente que logró convencer a Schmidt. Hoy en día, Chromium ha evolucionado tanto que en 2013 reemplazó WebKit por su propio motor, Blink, consolidándose como la base tecnológica no solo de Chrome, sino de competidores directos como Microsoft Edge, Opera y Brave.

Google brings Chrome to Linux ARM64 devices 🧩.

Feels ironic. Most people switch to Linux for privacy and freedom — not to install a data‑harvesting browser from the company they’re escaping 🔒.

Multiple Chromium updates in rapid succession

You may have noticed that after my release of the Slackware package for Chromium (and its Un-Googled sibling) version 146.0.7680.71 there was a really short interval until I released an update in the form of the 146.0.7680.75 version. Chromium 146.0.7680.71 is the latest major version upgrade and it addressed a crazy amount of CVE's. I am not even going to lookup and configure the URLs...
