Website based notifications are the most idiotic, stupid, abusive thing ever in the current internet scene.
I work in IT and they cause so many issues. I 100% blame google and anyone else that added this feature to their browser.
The FBI recommends using an ad blocker - “Use an ad blocking extension when performing internet searches.” > https://www.ic3.gov/Media/Y2022/PSA221221
Yeah I do.. family plan so split the cost with the fam. I find it worth it. But the price increases are certainly concerning. If it keeps going up I’ll drop it.
Well said
Dang I hope lemm.ee is safe. Hopefully Estonia doesn’t decide the same.
I work in the IT field and in the last 5 months or so the amount of users getting into sticky situations (fake virus warnings, notification hijacking, etc) has skyrocketed. I kept thinking they were visiting shady sites, but finally I found out it’s the ads on google search results. It’s ridiculous how shady the ads are and I completely blame google. The notification feature in chrome is the stupidest thing ever with how easy it is for sites to take advantage of ignorant users.
I went 6 days a couple weeks ago without power due to a massive storm. After a few days I purchased a small solar panel that has a USB port in it you can plug in anything that needs a charge. Works really good! It’s only 10 watt so charges pretty slowly but when you’re fully cut off from the grid, it’s a life safer. Definitely my most worthy purchase in quite some time.
Ohh snap. Normally I’m the one correcting people! Thanks for telling me, I hate saying the wrong words lol
Here’s the video https://x.com/darwinmedals/status/1748851166404821194?s=46 pretty awful :-(
Props to the person or people who are developing this. It’s something YouTube themselves should have done.
And they’re paying lots of money for it! It’s mind blowing
Oh man whoever lost their baggie is probably freaking the heck out
It's good that you're wanting to cook for yourself, but why no produce? You really need to be able to cut up and onion and to be fair garlic you can get away with already diced jarred stuff, but whew love me my onions lol
Here's a recipe that is budget centered. You could tweak it to your particular needs but cutting out the parts you can't do > https://www.spendwithpennies.com/easy-meat-sauce/
It looks kind of dumb though if I’m being honest. You can easily tell if someone didn’t inhale and instead just kept it in their mouth. Doesn’t look as complete. For acting, I’d consider this an issue.
Has anyone heard anything about the series x enhanced update for fallout 4? It was mentioned a long ass time ago and there’s been radio silence since then.
Ff16 is the first final fantasy game I’ve played (so I can’t compare to the others like you can) and at first I felt like this but now that I’m 17 hours in, I get it. It’s just how this game is, it’s not open world. Each area is it’s own thing that you take in.
Games are like an interactive movie and there’s a ratio of moviness to gaminess and this one leans heavier on the moviness side.
Idk just thinking out loud.
I can recommend the Apple TV. Even the android TV ones have ads now (looking at you shield tv!).
A Washington post article I was reading yesterday said google pays apple $19 billion this year to be the default browser on iPhones.
Same here. I’ve moved to Avelon which I strongly recommend you trying out. It’s legit.
Once memmy starts getting updates again I may switch back but gotta say, Avelon may have me hooked.
Wouldn’t surprise me if they lock it to the windows store. I hope I’m wrong!
Sometimes one of them will be just bot posts pulling their content from Reddit or somewhere and it’s kind of annoying, like spam. So sometimes you might want to join one but avoid the other.
Good on the pilots. But seems they wouldn’t have a reason to fly anyway if their planes aren’t loaded up by the ground crews.
The big thing holding me back from Firefox on iPhone is the ad blocking side of things. Is there a way to block ads besides vpn based methods?
Eww yeah their whole data infrastructure is sketchy af. I used them in the past (just in time to make sure all my data was in their hands when it was breached) and doing simple billing changes were way more confusing than it should have been because their whole system is like a decade behind.
I’d say browsing Lemmy with a web browser works just fine. You can use wefwef if you want a more app experience. I’m not sure if there are currently any windows dedicated apps. I’m sure they’re being worked on though.
Retro handheld gaming machines! One like the Miyoo mini - https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256805029072733.html?spm=a2g0n.productlist.0.0.70ea1175JsQ6Yu&browser_id=d65e366aa49c4fc8b9e50714328659c1&aff_platform=msite&m_page_id=deaacfcbec18c234cca5c250c07efc932199ddaea1&gclid=&pdp_npi=4%40dis%21USD%2166.22%2166.22%21%21%21470.00%21%21%40210321c717013992842986230e162a%2112000032398395660%21sea%21US%210%21AB&algo_pvid=d938bf3e-547c-424a-9458-27ead5dd64ba
Incredible handheld gaming device.
They sure are and when you ask them about it, they never remember allowing it.
I believe they did but were of the understanding he’d go back to OpenAI if the board changed their mind (like what happened). It was basically his golden parachute.
If I had to guess it’s probably the weather radars picking up returns from the thick, humid air. The weather app sees the returns and assumes it’s rain so predicts as such.
Also in his original rant, he said “death con” instead of defcon.
I always wanted a PSP but never got one. I really wish Sony would come out with another.
Thanks I was kinda shocked when I saw the link it gave me lol. I have no intention of earning referral money or anything. I wasn’t even logged into Ali express when I copied the link.
That’s amazing. Ill definitely start using that. I freaking love Firefox.
Can someone share the article? It just loads an ad for me.
CD-RW isn’t compatible on many basic CD players like CD-Rs are so unless you have a player that you know supports RW, it’s usually best to go with R.
It’s all just so frustrating because nothing is going to happen to these corrupt justices. It’s a slap in the face and then being spit on to the American people. Freaking ridiculous.
I only downvote if the comment is being rude, spam, insulting, or hateful. If it’s someone sharing their opinion about something, even if I and “everyone else” disagrees, it’s not worthy of my downvote. It makes me mad when legitimate thoughts that are relevant, but against the grain, get downvoted.
Yep and the admin has actually assisted Lemmy.world’s admin to solve their issues before. That fact alone made me settle on lemm.ee - like you’re making a good decision going with this one.
Check out lemm.ee - the dev seems to be on top of things. If you read the post by lemmy.world’s admin about fixing some issues, he/she actually credits lemm.ee for the fix so seems like you’re in good hands on that instance.
I’m glad to be totally off of Reddit now but I have to say, props to the mods doing this kind of stuff. It’s pretty hilarious
