Dave, to asklemmy in Who doesn't use an adblocker and why?
@Dave@lemmy.nz avatar

If you do use one what other blocking do you productively use to circumvent data collection, YouTube and reddit front ends and things alike?

I use an ad blocker, and in addition also use Pi-hole for network-wide domain based tracker blocking. I use tailscale to use this on my phone, but also have Tracker Control (the real version installed from F-Droid) to do something similar if for some reason I need to disable Tailscale (only one can be used at once, as they both use the VPN method).

Dave, to asklemmy in What are some good questions to ask your boss during your yearly review?
@Dave@lemmy.nz avatar

Would it be helpful to ask for suggestions on getting better at the exam stuff, or do you already have what you need and just need to put in the study time?

If you’re on the path to level 2, ask what you need to get there.

If you can get specific feedback then you can work on those things, and it also shows your boss that it’s your goal so they can help you work towards it.

Ah that makes sense. I’d guess it’s not great at moving oxygen though.

I’m just looking at the OP’s picture 🤷‍♂️

How does air make it all the way down the pipe to the back of the toilet, surely that pipe has methane or other gasses that are the reason for the vent existing?

And the pipe allows air down from the vent on the roof or wherever? I would have thought the vent is to let out pressure from methane build up or something. Plus somehow that air needs to not only get down the pipe but also up the one going to the toilet.

I’m starting to think this idea won’t catch on.

So you can kind of breath while you wait to die?

Is the toilet pipe actually full of oxygen? I guess there’s a vent to let it in?

Dave, to memes in Just no

I gave up on Peaky Blinders when for some reason Netflix only had season 1 and 3, which I didn’t realise until I was at the end of season 1.

Yeah, my first thought was cancer, though there are plenty of other possibilities.

Article says “a brief illness”, which narrows it down.

Yeah, I think it’s a bit different. The Kenya study showed the monthly payments for 2 years was the least effective, which is what the Finland study did. The Finland one was also only a small number of people, where the Kenya one did entire villiages.

Giving the entire society the payments is different than only certain people, so I’m keen to see a wider scale trial in a western country.

Though with that said, western countries and NGOs may well be able to fund widescale UBI for developing countries, and that may be more worthwhile on a global scale.

I’m super curious what this would look like in a western country where poverty is different. It would need a lot more money for the equivalent payment so I guess Kenya is easier to find money for, but for example I wonder if people are as likely to start a new business or do we not have the same market gaps due to large companies or franchises filling those gaps?

Dave, to memes in This is great. You should try it.

Yes but that ramen does not grow on their heads.
