Marginalia Encyclopedia
Viktor (Developer) states it simple:
This is a what-if experiment in web design: What if we designed web-sites according to print principles, an experiment in web design, a high-readability, low-distraction encyclopedia with design choices such as narrow column widths, high line-spacing and a consistent typeface.
It is mostly for my own personal use, but you are very welcome to explore as well.
The experience is primarily designed for full-screen use on desktop computers. It will work on mobile devices as well, tablets better than phones, but only just.
FYI: The contents are sourced from various areas, but mostly indexed from Wikipedia.
For Indian Users Only:
Income Tax Department has introduced a new feature called the "Discard" option for Income Tax Returns (ITRs) filed under sections 139(1), 139(4), and 139(5). This option is applicable for unverified returns from the assessment year 2023-2024 onwards.
The option to discard ITRs is applicable for returns filed for the financial year 2022-2023 onwards. However, taxpayers should note that this option is only available within nine months from the beginning of the relevant fiscal year, with a deadline of December 31.
To access the "Discard" option:

OneClipboard Server - server for OneClipboard to allow clients to sync...
OneClipboard is a collection of collaborative apps to automatically sync clipboards on remote devices. This is the server part. It has no knowledge-of or access-to any clipboards, it simply relays text between connected clients.
Any number of clients can connect to a single server. All clients that are connected to the same server, and identify with the same username/password combination, will effectively share a single clipboard – and an update to any one, will immediately update all. All clipboard text communicated between devices is encrypted over the network.
A corresponding desktop variant is available as well.

Marginalia Search
Open source search engine, which actually showcases non-enterprise results, unlike the others & the main purpose of the search engine is "to help you find and navigate the non-commercial parts of the Internet". It is an attempt to increase the visibility of this quirkier and less-standard part of the Internet.

Reckless DMCA Deindexing Pushes NASA's Artemis Towards Black Hole
Andy Maxwell reports via TorrentFreak: As the crew of Artemis 2 prepare to become the first humans to fly to the moon since 1972, the possibilities of space travel are once again igniting imaginations globally. More than 92% of internet users who want to learn more about this historic mission and the program in general are statistically likely to use Google search. Behind the scenes, however, the ability to find relevant content is under attack. Blundering DMCA takedown notices sent by a company calling itself DMCA Piracy Prevention Inc. claim to protect the rights of an OnlyFans/Instagram model working under the name 'Artemis'.
Instead, keyword-based systems that fail to discriminate between copyright-infringing content and that referencing the word Artemis in any other context, are flooding towards Google. They contain demands to completely deindex non-infringing, unrelated content, produced by innocent third parties all over the world.
A recent deindexing demand dated December 13, 2022, lists DMCA Piracy Prevention Inc. of Canada as the sender.
The name of the content owner is redacted but the notice itself states that the company represents a content creator performing under the name Artemis. The notice demands the removal of 3,617 URLs from Google search. If successful, those URLs would be completely unfindable by more than 92% of the world's population who use that search engine. [...]
At least 9 of the first 20 URLs in the notice demand the removal of non-infringing articles and news reports referencing the Artemis space program. None have anything to do with the content the sender claims to protect. [...]
Theories as to who might own and/or operate DMCA Piracy Prevention Inc. aren't hard to find but the company does exist and is registered as a corporate entity in Canada. Registered at the same address is a company with remarkably similar details. BranditScan is a corporate entity operating in exactly the same market offering similar if not identical services. BranditScan has sent DMCA takedown notices to Google under three different notifier accounts.

FYI, if anyone is not aware. KeepassDX has a build failing error in F-Droid for the last 2+ weeks and therefore they have added libre builds in Izzy for now as the dev himself is having trouble finding the commits so to do the git rebase.
For now you can export and import your app properties from the old version to the new version and the new version can be installed alongwith the old one as well.

Twitter/X announces upcoming removal of more features from free version
X (formerly known as Twitter) has outlined plans for new alternatives to its paid Premium version. The new Basic subscription tier is intended to become the only way to access features such as post editing or removal from the social media app, whereas Premium Plus (or Premium+) would be the only way to view certain sections of its UI without ads.
