Sorry if I misread. Didn’t mean to attack or offend.
I do absolutely agree with you regardless.
- Comment on Is the ‘tech bro-ification’ of abortion here? 7 hours ago:
Which is fair. I very likely misread it because us tech-minded people have a tendency to be smug or look down on our peers when they miss something we deem obvious (that’s been my experience online at least).
I didn’t mean any offence or anything by my comment though.

That’s how you know your system is fucked. Searching BY NAME doesn’t result in the app appearing as result number 1.
There is absolutely zero excuse or reason for that.

I mean, yeah. Just remembered someone mentioning that yesterday and wanted to add it, because it’s ridiculous.

While this is obviously the solution, being smug and pointing at it as if it’s obvious and women are stupid for not knowing about it doesn’t help.
If anything we need to figure out how to help women discover drip or whatever alternative we want to recommend. We need to figure out how to get it higher up on the Play Store’s search results rather than it being impossible to discover at something like #40 on that list. We need to figure out how to introduce F-droid and related solutions in a way that is as close to frictionless as possible.
Sadly, not everyone is willing to put in the amount of work we are and others aren’t even aware of the issues.

Grim Dawn is a similar concept with a different story if you’re looking for something similar as well.
Pretty sure some of the original Titan Quest team worked on it if I remember correctly.

Windows 10 LTSC can be downloaded from official links found here. An activation script is available from the same source.
Using this allows you to continue using Windows 10 with much less issue for quite a few more years.
A tool like O&O Shutup is also invaluable for maintaining your sanity on currently supported versions of Windows.

Pi-hole or AdGuard Home on your local network as well as some kind of DNS filtering on all of your devices for when you’re away from home.
All of this goes along with uBlock Origin on a Firefox-based browser. Block as thoroughly and effectively as you possibly can.

Damn, I was joking and now I’m at -1. Should’ve added the /s I guess.
More seriously, aren’t those called aglets? Always forget the name when I want to remember it.

Those are the ends of what are called shoelaces, friend.

I’ve seen this exact quote a few times and I’m curious.

I wish they’d just fuck off with everything else and genuinely focus on the browser.

Is the source a manga? Or a hentai? Or is it some OC from an artist?
It’s gonna be hentai isn’t it?

Meaning they’d rather declare bankruptcy or anything other than lower those wages and do something that benefits the world by properly focusing on making a good product for the first time in years.

Surprise, surprise.
Forcing security measures onto someone who doesn’t understand them or know how to recover their data if something goes wrong is a bad idea.

Wish I could help you figure that out, but I’m a total linux noob. The EndeavourOS forums would be a good place to start though.

Always use the up-to-date version.
Whenever there’s consistent playback issues there’s usually an update on the horizon. Just have be patient.
- Comment on My Thoughts on the Fosstodon Drama | Kev Quirk 1 month ago:
- The admins claimed to have reviewed said mod actions, didn’t find anything out of the ordinary, but still got rid of them.
My understanding was that this mod’s accounts disappeared from everywhere (including Reddit), not just Fosstodon. So, I think they deleted their accounts themselves to avoid the backlash or something.

I’m not a software dev, but that’s what I was thinking when I said maybe there’s a reason for it. I still feel like it’s a shit change, but that’s because I use the function.
- Comment on YouTube says goodbye to decade-old video player UI, but users hate the new design 1 month ago:
That, for sure, is one of the most garbage changes imaginable.
Someone conciously had to go out of their way to remove functionality there.
Maybe there’s a reason for it, but I still think it’s a shit change.

I’m not defending google here, but I’m sure a decent chunk of the complaints are just bitching because “change bad!”
I haven’t seen the change yet and I’m sure there are legitimate complaints as well, but us online folk tend to detest even the smallest changes and go a bit overboard in our complaining sometimes.
