zovin··on ASP.NET Security Feature Bypass Vulnerability
For context around the score https://github.com/dotnet/aspnetcore/issues/64033#issuecomme...
zovin··on Bose SoundTouch Support Discontinued
When they discontinued the line in 2021, they explicitly mentioned they would maintain support of the SoundTouch app. I have a Wave IV and thankfully didn't buy into the multi-room playback system, so at least the radio, CD player, and airplay will still work. Except I primarily used it as an alarm clock with a streaming service, so this really sucks.

They gave a consolation prize of 25% off on some Bose speakers, but why would you want more Bose speakers if you can't trust them to keep their word?

zovin··on Microsoft is ending support for the Windows Subsystem for Android (WSA)
I sideloaded Marvel Unlimited so I could read comics on my surface. It was genuinely a great experience, because its the biggest tablet I own and the android app was far better then the web app. Rip WSA.
zovin··on JavaScript import maps are now supported cross-browser
Especially since moving to SDK-style projects, I haven't even thought about assembly bindings in a long time. I've come to really like nuget.
zovin··on $9.99/month
Capital One credit cards have the virtual card feature built-in. You can use the Eno extension to use them. It even allows for scheduled lock outs of the specific virtual cards. I use it for every subscription service I use.
zovin··on Two Months with Powershell on a Unix
Same here. I love using pwsh 7 on windows, but on Linux it was a whole different experience. Granted I was trying to use it on an Arch instance, which isn't technically supported, but I couldn't even get PSGet or PsReadLine to work. However, I was pretty great to run the same scripts cross OS with basic commands like Invoke-WebMethod/Invoke-RestMethod
zovin··on NPM: 429 Too Many Requests
Here's a postmortem comment from a Cloudflare engineer: https://github.com/npm/cli/issues/836#issuecomment-587019096
zovin··on Apple Is Blocking Linux User-Agent on appleid.apple.com
If that was true, then "Invoke-WebRequest -Uri https://appleid.apple.com -UserAgent '(Linux)'" would return a 200 status, but it returns a 502 Bad Gateway
