True, but I’m still gonna swear at it until I get to talk to a human

Except this is the 6th recall this year

I’ve been using Firefox on Android since it came out. I’ve had 0 issues.

And as far as I’m aware, the newest version of Android Firefox (previously called “preview” doesn’t use an ounce of chrome, even for temporary browser pages

Firefox also has a mobile app with full extension support on Android, including uBlock origin

To my knowledge, DNS blockers not only miss a ton of ads, they also trigger several false positives.

A better solution is to switch to something not chromium like Firefox or whatever alternative the next Linux person to read this comment recommends

Aight, I’m a modern Nintendo hater, but the DS lite was so good. It had a great games library, an excellent layout that didn’t cramp my hands as a child or an adult, and a solid touch screen. Peer to peer networking was so nice in an era where you very rarely had internet anywhere and it was never fast enough for gaming.

I think I must’ve spent hours in pitcochat alone. Plus, my almost 20 year old DS lite still works. I used it to play some of the Layton games just recently! I did manage to break one, but that was cause my mother put some obnoxiously large case on it that made it impossible to play anything. Tried ripping it off and tore the sections in half

I had a friend like this in college. His name was AJ. That’s it. Just the letters.

Everyone in the department spent ages trying to guess what it stood for. I managed to glance his ID when we got lunch together once. His name was just AJ. There weren’t even periods marking it as an abbreviation.

Still haven’t told anyone though

I was just discussing with a friend of mine how we’re rapidly approaching the dead internet. At some point, many websites will likely just be chat bots talking to other chat bots, which then gets used to train further chat bots. Human made content is already becoming harder and harder to find on algorithm heavy websites like Reddit and facebooks suite of sites. The bots can easily outpace any algorithmic changes they might make to help deter them, but my fb using family members all constantly block those weird Jesus accounts and they still show up constantly

Funnily enough, the bot everyone identified as tik tok hasn’t hit me as far as I’m aware. It’s mostly been random LLM bots grabbing data to train.

I should specify - I have family of various, but typically quite low, technical skills and of various far distances apart that use the server. So it’s either walk them through getting the IP of every device they access with or driving up to about 8 hours away to do it myself.

I have family and friends that also access the sites contents, so that’s sadly not feasible without getting the IPs from dozens of different devices

Thankfully they haven’t bricked my modem yet, but it’s possibly worth looking into

My personal website that primarily functions as a front end to my home server has been getting BEAT by these stupid web scrapers. Every couple of days the server is unusable because some web scraper demanded every single possible page and crashed the damn thing

I will now dream of getting to do this

I see plenty of value in buying it and turning it into a gay cam site!

No one gives a shit about the CEO of telegram, your joke just wasn’t funny

It. Wasn’t. Funny.

Obsidian is just sooooo good. I hate that you (technically 😉) have to pay for multi device sync, but the UI and UX are excellent, especially if you’re already proficient in markdown

Haven’t tried logseq before, so I can’t compare

He tried to kill the active President, not for political reasons, but to impress an actress who didn’t know he existed.

Mans bat shit. Why on earth would the diagnosis of crazy be challenged?

So what exactly is wrong with making the voice mail say “I will never check this. Email me at person@company.tld if you want help”? If the requirement is bullshit, why shouldn’t people comply maliciously? As long as there’s some way to contact the dev (like through email), who gives a rats ass if the phone number doesn’t work? I don’t need to call Lawrence Dawson cause Sync is having issues. I can post on the sub or probably find an email somewhere. It’s not gonna be instant like a phone call, but it doesn’t need to be.
