I can't stand the screeching of a dot matrix printer. The correct way to print the news is with a teletype.

I would imagine most people who aren't using chrome are doing so for privacy reasons.

I don't care, I will still keep blocking them. I have no desire to watch that zero effort, tiktok like crap and I can't stand vertical video.

One of the less polished parts of the browser.

Probably because most people using Firefox disable browsing history.

Why not just make solar roofs over things like parking lots and sidewalks? That way it can provide cover and power, you can use off the shelf panels, and they are unlikely to get damaged.

There's no way I would ever get in one of these death traps. If something goes wrong, they can't glide and they can't autorotate.

SponsorBlock takes care of the sponsored segments in youtube videos. There are addons for blocking sponsored search results on amazon too.

You can do almost anything with a website that you could do with an app. The only reason they are pushing the apps so hard is because they can collect a lot more data than a website can.

Almost every Lemmy instance blocked threads.

Even 7zip can compress a large text file to less than 25% of it's original size. The installer is less than 2MB. There are even better compression algorithms for text than 7zip though.

Why would anyone even want to use uBlock Origin Lite on Firefox? It's a stripped down version designed to work with the limitations of manifest V3 in chrome.

 

I picked this little scope up from the Seapac swap meet a week and a half ago for $3. It turns out that all it needed was some contact cleaner to get it working again.

This is a portable scope that can run from 12V DC as well as an internal battery. I don't have the battery for it, but I could probably put some 18650's in there if I disable the built in charger.
