This is not mildly infuriating this is the free internet being eroded through Google’s control of Chrome

Firefox. It is the only thing keeping Google from total internet domination

People's resistance to change is quite strong, even if they have good reason to leave and lemmy/fediverse are great alternatives the fact is that in terms of UX lemmy can be quite different and takes some time to find and rebuild a list of communities to join, specially since you can have the same community on different servers (i.e. technology on beehaw vs technology on lemmy.world) and just this fact means a learning curve for people that for the most part don't like change.

I switch when it was Phoenix, then switch again when it was Firebird, and finally switch when it become Firefox

DuckDuckGo on Firefox. If you truly want to de-google your life avoid Chrome and Chromium based browsers like Edge and Brave

The best way to oppose this is to use non-chromium browsers like Firefox and take away Google’s source of power: chromium market share

Evil-er

That is a feature not a bug

Some of them add bugs disguised as features, like Ubuntu’s snap

Reality has a liberal bias

Why not post a link to the actual XKCD comic and give the author the views instead of a random site?

I have a Hyundai Kona Electric 2022 and it is a perfectly dumb electric car

It took me a while to curate a list of interesting subreddits. I am doing the same thing with lemmy and since kbin is also part of the fediverse I don’t see the point of having a kbin account on top of lemmy+mastodon. I’m spending some time discovering what is around lemmy and all its instances so it will be unlikely that I’ll move somewhere else, unless lemmy collapses somehow

That there is a god (or gods)

Modern keyboards are an evolution of the old typewriter that existed before computers as we know them and programming as we know it existed, so I would say keyboard came first

I’m sorry but stackoverflow will give you a tardigrade and swear to you that it was a frog when they tried it on their PC

It might be the HDMI cake that limits the refresh rate, or if the Mac you are using doesn’t have a hdmi port it might be the adapter that is causing the limit. The specs for the monitor say it should go up to 60hz at 4K

it makes you a Windows engineer which is worse

If they move to Python they can just have pain without constant 😜

I chose sh.itjust.works but since then I’ve realized that it would be better to support instances that are local to me so I think I’ll move to an Australian instance. Supporting local instances might help with regional growth

What the fuck did Vigo do to you

I’m just buying a cheap is a common excuse for over consumption

What does that have to do with Google’s ability to force their view of the world through the dominance of the browser share market?

This is me 46 *nix user, nerd

Just wait until you have to work as part of a team on a big project. The lack of types will murder the team’s productivity

Brave is still Chromium based which means giving control over the internet to Google regardless

Just create a al Inter rule that rejects Any types and a pre-commit hook that refuses the commit if the linter fails. Sometimes the brute force approach is the best way to teach

Today I learned :)

nypost is a highly unreliable source

My new Hyundai Kona Electric still has those and I think all of Hyundai’s new models (EV or not) still have them

Stan Qualen by The Southern River Band. I love their brand of rock

Tell me you are a Java dev without telling me you are a a Java dev 😂

Batman v Superman is great, it just doesn't fit the usual super hero movie tropes in my opinion. The ultimate edition is awesome

It is the same fight that we all fought against Microsoft IE but Google has been a lot smarter with their shit fuckery

What works for me is opening a new Private windows on Firefox, with ublock installed, and then login into YouTube. I do have to login every time I hope a private windows by so far I’ve been able to watch unlimited videos with an ad blocker installed

I hate it during the workout but I love the feeling after. Problem for me is getting started

In Australia BlueLink is not even an option so it is perfectly dumb and great

Yes, I found it hard at the start but communities are slowly starting to form. Nothing positive (like ditching spez) comes without some pain

Flight b741 is an amazing album. I can’t get enough of the other 24 either. Even The Silver Chris which would normally not be my style. PetroDragonic is more my style

The current Colombian government is a leftist version of the Trump administration, including an extremely corrupt populist president and with nepotism all over the place. Nothing the government does has any substance and it is all for show so I would not be surprised if these people are back to their old ways once the current president is voted out.
