The Browsing Company’s unconventional browser Arc releases publicly on Mac

It's still based on Chromium, but the user experience is quite different.

@naseer I'd stay away from Spoutible. It's run by a nutcase.

Finished (almost) the leftie! Aurora Corne kit from SplitKB. Waiting for the battery (wired works fine for now), and to figure out the OLED display.

Very happy with how this looks, even though the keycaps are temporary, scavenged from a spare Nuphy Air set.

Tomorrow I'll do it again with the rightie! #crkbd

New boards arrived with silk made in #gerbolyze from a sheet of patterned #origami paper. The silkscreen covers the mostly empty bottom layer, with the top silk containing all component references. The footprint in the middle is a socket for a Würth WR-WST direct-to-board connector that I'm starting to use as a much cheaper and more convenient alternative to the offerings of Tag-Connect.

We are strongly against the new ‘dangerous’ #Google DRM / Web-Environment-Integrity. Here’s our take: 👇

https://vivaldi.com/blog/googles-new-dangerous-web-environment-integrity-spec/

With Google’s #WebEnvironmentIntegrity, the threat to the open web is greater as it could be used to encourage #Microsoft and #Apple to cooperate with Google to restrict competition in the browser and the operating system space.
This should be prevented from moving forward.

Unpacking Google’s new “dangerous” Web-Environment-Integrity specification

Why Vivaldi browser thinks Google’s new proposal, the Web-Environment-Integrity spec, is a major threat to the open web and should be pushed back.
