If you ever have time, compare the things the american right is proposing with the things that get passed into the russian law. The overlap is actually surprising, just instead of "traditional western values" it's "traditional slavic values".

I still hate the fact that the same people who said that no one is going to adopt a whole new social network in regards to mastodon suddenly changed their minds when the zuck made a worse version of it.

For me Firefox has some showstoppers that Mozilla doesn't seem too interested in fixing (tablet ui on Android, lack of share target support for pwas). I'm not some hater mind you, I want it to succeed.

I've recently checked my years-old essay using one of these AI plagiarism detectors and it said that the essay was 90% AI written. So either it's all bs or I'm a time travelling AI.

TCP/IP Illustrated, Vol. 1, it may be a little bit outdated, but the core concepts still stand.

Keep in mind that a lot of your local marketplace sellers just order rebadged stuff from alibaba. I've found literally the same electronics i've bought locally on aliexpress for like half the price.

More AI panic... whatever gets clicks i guess.

Alibaba is basically just wholesale aliexpress, most sellers have a minimum order quantity and have clear pricing scale depending on your order.

I'm geniunely asking, what are the alternatives that are fast, have builtin sync, and can block ads on android? I've tried firefox, and while it's gotten better on desktop, in my experience it struggles to play youtube videos on mobile, and the ui is basically unusable on a tablet/foldable.

Since the transition to GeckoView the tablet ui is just scaled up mobile ui, with no tab-bar and no desktop sites by default. For some reason mozilla has marked it as a feature request instead of a bug (which I argue it is, as it used to have those features, as do all of the competing browsers), and successfully have been ignoring for 3 years (here's the discussion on mozilla connect, but there used to be a github issue before that).
As for youtube, I need a browser to use https://chatreplay.stream/ . For everything else of course there are NewPipe, ReVanced, and LibreTube

I'm a bit late and maybe someone already mentioned it, but go onto amazon and order the cheapest darkest car window tinting film. I have it on all of my leds and it makes it a lot more bearable.

In a world where rats are intelligent beings capable of communication, who says the don't live like 10 or 20 years? It's fiction and, if not stated otherwise, you can believe whatever you want ;)

Security is also something I worry about with 3rd party chromuim browsers. Chrome and Edge are probably getting patches the day they come out, but even brave seems to be lagging a bit behind.
TBH with Firefox's falling market share I wonder if it's more secure in a way that there's less security research from either white- or blackhats.

Wow, I'm hyped. Used to play so much patapon at the time that I broke the face buttons on my psp.

The smallest recommended IPv6 subnet is /64. The biggest issue you will encounter is that SLAAC will refuse to work on anything smaller, and it just so happens that Android still doesn't support DHCPv6 and will be left without a valid address.

Is it that big of a deal when we all carry portable tracking devices with multiple cameras and microphones that can be turned on without our knowledge?
EDIT: Receipts for those who are curious what am I talking about.

There just is no tablet ui after the GeckoView rewrite? They still have the old support page where you can see how it used to look.

"This is a reference to the fact that this is not the real Obama, as the real one doesn't usually ask for permission"

You're asking if you should use it, while my ISP was working on it in 2017 and then it all got canned when they got bought out :( .

Can confirm that HE course is good. They've even sent me a free t-shirt after I've completed it.

I follow them on Twitter :/

Oh come on, you don't have to drink. Drinking is a choice and an easily avoidable health risk.
