  • alternate headline: "UBlock Origin Lite - Crippled adblocker for a google-dominated internet."

    do what u/Buffalox said, stop using chrome and chromium-based browsers.

  • This Bread I Break by Dylan Thomas

    It’s a short, beautiful poem that laments man’s destructive relationship with nature.

  • for the last 14 years of my career, I was using stupidly overpowered Oracle exadata systems exclusively, so "slow" meant 3 seconds instead of 1.

    Now that I'm retired, I pretty much never need to compress anything.

  • tar cvjf compressed-shit.tar.bz2 /path/to/uncompressed/shit/

    Only way to fly.

  • Tell me you're young without telling me you're young.

    Paper towels, for most of my life (I'm old AF), were as long as they were wide. Square, they were. Bounty originated select-a-size by perforating them twice as frequently, so they were half as long as wide. Others eventually followed suit and now youngsters think that's how it's always been.

  • You should be able to to settings then focus then whichever focus you’re working on. Inside there you’ll see categories for people and apps. List any contacts and apps that you want notifications from during that focus. All others should be silenced

  • I love the smell of bleach.

    Absolutely hate the stench of coffee. About the only thing worse is coffee with vanilla in it. Disgusting.

  • I’m not sure if it’s even possible to mix two sources with Bluetooth multipoint. I’ve never seen a device that could.

    The few that I’ve seen that can mix sources have all had Bluetooth plus a wireless dongle and they could mix the two connections.

  • It’s a neat idea but it looks like the company doesn’t have the resources to create decent hardware to carry it out

  • torpedo.exe has entered the chat

  • You can sorta get close with MVNOs like Tello. I have a plan that’s $6.16/month, including taxes.

  • Is it still an unpopular opinion if I just hate that I agree with you?

    (Writing this from my linux gaming desktop. I don't use arch btw)

  • Honestly, it sounds like it might be overheating. Have you checked temperatures when it happens?

  • You’re sort of right and sort of very wrong. There are a lot of badly built mobile homes, and some very well built tiny homes, for sure. Unfortunately the large majority of tiny home companies have avoided complying with the national building codes and are instead building only to RV standards. That’s not to say they aren’t doing good work, but RVIA standards are well short of NBC in terms of safety and durability. That’s why you’ll usually see a disclaimer on tiny builder sites saying their homes aren’t meant for long term full time occupancy. It’s also why getting affordable insurance for a tiny home is very expensive and difficult.

  • My favorite grocery store sells “pot-ready spaghetti noodles” which are half the length of normal ones. I think Italy’s declaration of war is a foregone conclusion at this point

    • drunkle
  • AVA/NHI: asshole vs asshole, no humans involved.

    No matter who wins here, everyone loses

  • We had a dozen of those when I was a kid, along with a bunch of aluminum tins containing the nastiest soda crackers you can possibly imagine. The civil defense water barrels were very useful but the “food” was something you’d only eat if there was no alternative.

  • It’s cute how these memes act like weekends are a thing.
