Safari reader mode strips styling off webpages and displays content in a pre-defined, easy to read format. Reader mode does its best to provide a consistent layout across all sites. It’s great for accessibility but also has many more advantages:
Reader mode targets the content portions of a website and strips away the rest. In doing so it removes many common annoyances; often times paywalls are bypassed, ads are stripped away, elements like email subscribe and GDPR cookie consent popups are removed.
Normally you have to tap the “Aa” icon on the top right of the in-app Safari browser every time a new site is loaded. The new Voyager setting removes this unnecessary tap and displays reader mode automatically.
Firefox on iOS and desktop has the same functionality. I don’t know if reader mode is available on the android in-app browser as I don’t use android devices.
Discover Card used to be owned by Sears Roebuck Co.. Back in the olden days, Discover Card was a product for consumers looking to continue building their credit history.
It was relatively easy to get a low-limit Sears store credit card with no credit history whatsoever. After using the Sears store card for 6 months to a year, Sears would offer the Discover Card as a general-purpose credit card. Discover was an attractive financial vehicle as it offered path of least resistance to establish a credit history.
Sears was as ubiquitous a retailer as Amazon is today. Sears credit and Discover offered an unmatched level of purchasing power for the new consumer.
Sears sold off Discover to a third party shortly before they sold themselves to the same company that bought K-Mart. Sears c-suite leadership did not pivot into online sales fast enough and Amazon crowded them out of the future.
Source: I worked for Sears back when most of you were itching your daddy’s pants. I signed up many, many folks for Sears cards and I got $5 each time. Now get off my lawn, my knees hurt.
Wow, up until today I thought the DeLorean body panels were aluminum. TIL DeLorean body panels are stainless steel. I've had the opportunity to view them up close several times (auto auctions, car shows, etc.), and never noticed any signs of rust or discoloration.
40 years seems like a relatively short time for natural evolutionary processes to adapt a mammal to a highly radioactive environment. That’s like 10 to 20 generations of wolf and suddenly they are cancer resistant?
After all the needless loss of life surrounding the Chernobyl reactor explosion, finding viable cancer-resistant genetic mutations would be the ultimate silver lining.
I was so mesmerized by the Voyager intro I got sucked back into the warm nostalgia of my childhood. My eyes instinctively looked to the corner of the screen to read the episode title. And end of video. 😢
If you can get those on the internet you will be preserving access for the vast majority who would otherwise be stuck with the crappy streaming versions.
Of course you can access everything through the web on Linux. I really like Proton's web mail interface. Unfortunately, Proton does not have a Linux analog to their windows client that provides automatic file syncing. I think that what the commenter is complaining about.
There is a dedicated Linux client for Proton VPN and in my experience it integrates quite well on Debian-based distributions.
WristwatchRevival - A watchmaker (Horologist) that services all kinds of wristwatches. He provides excellent narration and camerawork. After watching his channel I went from not caring about watches, to considering studying horology as a profession.
If you watch the Jan 6 HBO (Max) documentary, you can watch one of these dumbfucks beat a cop with a "Thin Blue Line" flag. Treason shouldn't be punished so lightly. These people should be made an example of.
