  Thank you, they’ve been ruining search results since the day SEO was coined.

  For most people the consequences of this action will be too far away to understand the connection, so it’s a pretty good target for the US Republican party.

  Privacy, UI/UX, admin controls, ads, pop ups or notifications, nagging about online services, AI, forced account creation, not working with older hardware.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨6* months away now. If you're on 10, do you plan to upgrade? Make the jump to Linux?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Might be worth testing Linux with a separate drive. I know people still have trouble with Nvidia, but there are a lot of people (myself included) that just had to install the drivers and have had zero issues thereafter. Mine is a slightly older gaming laptop.

  I have a desktop with an AMD card that I tried to put Linux on and couldn’t get the drivers to work. I’m going to try again in the summer and hope they’ve caught up.

  What show is this from?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Short attention span⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  In similar vein to what others have posted:

  I think you’re describing a combination of stress and preoccupation. I suggest looking into mindfulness as a way to start helping with both.

  If it’s more than that and you have healthcare, both a Dr visit and psychiatry visit to discuss with a professional could be helpful.

  I get where you’re coming from, but just like with the single day, people have to start somewhere.

  These events can help people break habits and find alternatives without something as big as “never again”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Yes that is definitely what I was going for, thank you⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My favorite apple auto correct: changing the word before the one you just finished. You mentally verify that it’s correct, type the next word, auto correct fucks up the next word and then retroactively fucks up the word you already moved on from. Absolutely brilliant interface.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨heat your body, not your house -- using an infrared heat lamp⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t have many answers, but a couple more things to think about:

  The fixture needs to handle the increased heat and wattage.

  If you’re using something built in, the switch also needs to handle increased wattage.

  Most of the above are probably not designed to handle “dimming” to control the heat.

  Electric blankets might be a good starting place

  I think it’s a cool idea, please let us know if you’re successful!

  Especially co-op, Torchlight was fantastic. Basically all of the right QoL implementations so everything was just about having fun.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Grim Dawn; ARPG from 2016, currently on sale for a few $ on steam. Very well rated with solid story, mechanics, and campaign focus (instead of more on seasons and grind).

  Yikes 😬

  It’s not about toxicity, it’s about mind control! Fluoride makes you passive. But you know this since you’re a tool of the government pushing poison.

  Just bleach your teeth like normal people! You know, with the bleach under the kitchen sink.

  (Don’t actually do this)
