Reply to comment by DashlaneCaden in Millions of passwords stolen from LastPass earlier than company disclosed: Report by BasedSweet
Ah, alright.
So may I ask why Dashlane isn’t on Firefox’s extension store? Since you’re specifically working on the extension.
I know it’s not really the place to ask about it, but I tried looking it up and found a Reddit post from over a year ago.

Yep ! I'm an engineer on our web app / extension.

Do you work for Dashlane, by any chance? Because you’re speaking in first person.

I stand corrected. I thought they did a couple of years ago. That’s good to know. I might return as a customer.

Sorry, what does that have to do with head garments being required?
Absolutely nothing?
Oh right.

Correct - we have never had a security breach (we even confidently state it front & center on our website). I'll never say it's impossible, but we are confident we deploy the highest level of security practices possible to ensure a breach will not happen.

Instacart profits are coming out of shopper's paychecks, duh.

Correct, how about a permission from her dad/brother/husband to travel without a family member that includes other males? Is that required?
Also, any risk in visiting Saudi embassy after making crude jokes about the country?

Head garments are not required by law in saudi arabia. Please stop spreading this bullshit.

Instacart is a private company in running out of investment money to spend. Plus they need to get the financials looking good so to go public people will buy the stock

It does. You can do banking from your phone, we have MFA, etc. The state could have a voting app.
But the Republican party opposed mail in voting and passed 240 bills to make voting harder for citizens. They will never support easy electronic voting.

hey I want to use my android phone as a second screen for my windows 11 computer but without the latency that comes with stuff that works with internet as I've got a really bad one, so ideally the solution would be by USB cable or LAN but I have no idea how to do that, any software I looked up used internet which lagged terribly or used lan but didn't work on android
thanks in advance

Yeah, all we need to do is manifest millions of tons of rare earth elements out of thin air, that should be no problem for auto manufacturers.

I think we have different definitions of scalable then. Our minds emerged from computation under the evolutionary pressure to form certain information processing patterns, so it isn't just any computation. Just so I understand you correctly, are you claiming an arbitrary computational system would inevitably lead to theory of mind and other emergent properties by simply scaling it (in other words, adding more compute units like neurons or transistors)?

Ah, but computation is scaleable, universally. No other system is. Our minds emerged from computation. And thank you for your thoughtful response

Absolutely!
So I cannot speak to why we went the route of hosting the extension ourselves rather than listing via the Firefox add-on store in the first place, but I can say it's on our roadmap to explore listing this year. I'm not on the team that handles our store automation & deployment processes, but from my understanding there is some work needed making the migration still & it's slated this year (with no specific date planned yet).
Our hosted version will still receive automatic updates, we're just missing out on the marketing / discoverability that the add-on store provides.
