Privacy Badger often borks streaming sites for me. They have been catching on to the blocklists used by stuff like uBlock Origin and AdGuard as well

People who don’t know what the “fediverse” is react VERY negatively to that word.

I love that we have it but it needs a better description than a meme that was obviously made up to be tongue-in-cheek cutesy-cringe and stuck. It may be this place’s most Reddit-brained pre-migration aspect lol

I liked it too until someone mentioned it’s the name of a crypto exchange (and therefore probably associated app) that is currently going through some bad shit.

I loved that it was space themed and also since gemini was the first mission rendezvous two craft in orbit it’s kind of a metaphorical nod to early federation.

Bad enough they stole Factorio’s concept but now we’re stealing the fanbase’s catchphrase too? 😜 /s

The Brave browser is billed as an ad-blocking, privacy protecting, champion of the everyday internet user.

We know they’re not, but they openly masquerade as one and so when they do something shady it’s somewhat relevant to put them on blast yet again. Just look at all the people in this thread alone that are like “oh wtf Brave isn’t good for privacy?”

I mean I’m sorry you’re not learning anything new from this content but we should probably be happy others are.

They do, it’s called Chromium

Chromium and Chrome are not the same thing.

Ghostery is like Brave, they record and sell your browsing habbits. I stopped using them back in 2013.

Seems like we need to have another talk with the less terminally-online people about what is and isn’t actually good int he world of web browsing safety…

Nope it’s always been bullshit, like Blue Buffalo.

I tried to get microk8s up and running by installing it from a snap since I figured it would be a nice and easy way to get up and running quickly.

I’ve spent so much time trying to get it working that I haven’t even started to learn k8s yet since I can’t get the damn thing to run.

I think I’m switching to Debian for my servers.

It would have been funnier if you put in “\e;D5c1-7” or whatever the fuck VT-100 gobbledegook

I don’t think that’s how it works; I thought that it was news aggregators run by the site itself; so like, “Google News” or an official account on an app posting.

Anyway this isn’t going to end well for Canada. This is like owing a newspaper money because you showed someone the way to the newsstand.

He did! He was very constipated and he’s fine now. There is a link with an update somewhere in these comments.

You think you are old? I was there at the beginning of All Your Base

While you’re not wrong, “panel that gets to decide the criteria of who is allowed access to procreation” is a bit too “Third Reich” for me, thanks

I put Memmy where Apollo was and I didn’t even have to retrain myself

I do find that I use the fediverse less, as my “front page” gets stale much quicker. But this is not only something I can probably fix, but also don’t mind because it reminds me how much I duck out into social media which helps me say “ah fuck it” and do something else.

No one saw “S1m0ne” 20 years ago because they thought it was too far fetched.

Nobody:

Toto: “I can fix him…”

Like eating a whole load of Tollhouse cookie dough straight from the tube?

GIMP is great but sometimes you don’t need a woodworking shop, you need a butter knife.
