  • Wot? No pineapple?

  • X11.

    How quaint.

  • Running uBlock-Origin for many years. I gave an example not an instance I use.

  • Seriously, you're complaining now? The privacy apps have been blocking Discord for many years.

  • Turns out we've moved on from not realising that deodorant was required in the first place.

  • Thank-you for the post. Reminded me to remove it. I use Voyager.

  • Doesn't really matter to be honest, you won't stick with it. You'll try others. We all do.

    Pick a distro in the top part of distrowatch.com and install it.

    I'll wait.

  • Person posts funny in funny community. Because it's funny. In a funny way.

    Turns out that there's not enough virtue signaling in the world.

  • Llamas. Llamas for sale. Get your llamas here. Llamas .. while they last. Last llama in the world here. Only eight left.

    (UK centric reference)

  • Upvoted to the heavens. Well, one anyways.

    Cf. Governments for the last twenty plus years failing to understand that taxation receipts are not inelastic wrt to tax levels (excuse triple negative). "Increasing taxation far beyond the average individual's ability to sustain is never going to affect receipts.".

    Never occurs to them that maybe why Gen Z sees no interest in working. Not sure I don't agree.

    Is that not one lesson learned in the 80s when Mrs T/Lawson(?) slashed tax rates (from 97% income tax) and doubled tax receipts.

  • Ah. 1970s disco. Bless.

  • Agree. All low cost parking zones now marked as premium, just to make sure that there's no sign of life.

    RIP physical shops.

  • Email isn't private. It was designed to be robust not private. Encryption never really caught on; and your counterparties using Gmail or some Microsoft server in the background will kill any expectation of privacy you might have.

    WW II's Gordon Welchman is worth reading about. Similar nasty end as Turing. Not as well known as Turing but a similar contribution before the encryption was actually solved.

    Have used Zoho for decades. Dozen domains, three/four actual accounts. Don't seem to have had any issues with them selling my info - use them with Addy.io. I don't gain anything from this reference/comment.
