Google sure is. Brave is a chromium-based browser - a browser that is built off of Google Chrome, so anything Google wants to put in their web browser to track you and devour your internet-soul is also in Brave and all the other “web browsers” that are just chromium skins like Edge.

Also, it was sent from a no reply address, so I can't reply and continue communicating on the matter.

This is slander against Dr. Pulowski

Imagine only knowing that a people in a tourist submarine died and learning the details through a muppet meme on a 196 forum

One day we’ll have faster-than-light spaceships and computers the size of a human hair, and we’ll still be making Doom run on them

Google just wants you to submit to their authority and do things the way they want.

Invidious and Piped are great alternative front ends; no ads, no tracking, no algorithm, no stupid throttling.

Piped.video is the main Piped instance, and I’ve got Invidious running at ourtube.roguewave.observer

ABCDEF

I’ve been Takeshidude since I was maybe 11 back on Lego.com

Feels wrong to have any other name

Not thrilled about adult swim or “grownup” fans. If this ends up being Rick and Morty but with Adventure Time characters, then I will pass. Adults can enjoy television, even animation without hearing an f-bomb every 30 seconds and without references to sexual organs.

Looks like the Third Impact

That’s right, the tailored homepage isn’t present in Invidious.

I’m in the same boat of having educated the algorithm to fairly reliably show me things I actually want to see; I use my Invidious instance mostly as a backup for when the YouTube gods are in a foul mood towards Firefox or Ublock or the color of my shirt or whatever

My memory probably is more of early Web 2; I was born in the late 90s, so I suppose I missed the really wild west days.

Flash games were great though; it seemed like every company that even slightly catered to people under 30 had a website with some game on it.

While I can't say I agree with the political views of the lemmy devs (at least as described in this article, as I have no other reference point), I think that it shows one of the really cool things about the fediverse. So what if those guys over there are weirdos? I can take the ball they gave me and go play somewhere else with other people.

First, I have to recommend Way of Ramen’s YouTube channel; he makes great videos, and I use several of his recipes in my Ramen.

I make WoR’s super simple Shio tare to start Ingredients:

• 450ml Water
• 70g Sea Salt
• 25ml Hon Mirin
• 7.5ml rice Vinegar
• 25ml Usukuchi shoyu
• 5g caster sugar
• 2.5g (1/2tsp) msg

Directions:

• Bring 450ml of water to a simmer
• Add salt, stir to dissolve
• Add mirin, sugar, shoyu, vinegar, 1/2tsp MSG Stir, then let cool and store

The bowl of ramen contains the following:

• 36ml Shio Tare
• 1Tbsp Chicken fat
• 400ml Hot water (or chicken stock or any good soup you have on hand)
• Pre-made noodles (look up Hakubaku or j-basket, both should be on Amazon or in your local Asian market)
• Toppings:

• Green onions
• Sautéd Red Bell pepper (skip if I’m not in the mood)
• 1/2lb. Fried chicken tenders (the stuff from Publix is magic if you’ve got one near you)

This can all be done in one day, but the tare recipe makes enough for at least a dozen bowls, so you’ll just warm it up later.

I’ll have Sir Patrick Stewart soliloquizing about space followed by a rad fanfare as I get breakfast.

Sounds pretty cool to me.

What if I voted for Trump in ‘16 and have since had the scales fall from my eyes and want him locked up in the arctic as much as the next guy? Am I still your enemy?
