I use Brave to test whether my websites work on Chromium browsers, but their scummy actions lately make me want to find a new Chromium browser to test with. What's the best Chromium based browser?

I already use Firefox for browsing normally, but I have to test on a Chromium based browser too. One soft requirement is that it should be installable with Flatpak on Linux.

Knusper,

Oh, I rather doubt it.

It is built on top of Qt, so I assume, theoretically, it wouldn’t be terribly difficult to do the port, but you need someone who regularly tests+fixes it under macOS. And well, it’s a non-commercial project, so you need someone who volunteers to do that…

Knusper,

Possible, yeah. Falkon was previously an independent project (QupZilla). I don’t know how much they’ve intermingled with the other KDE devs yet, but that’s certainly no insurmountable problem either.

Knusper,

I tend to use Falkon, which is developed by the KDE community…

Knusper,

Yeah, alright, that makes sense, if you’ve got more food in boxes. I have my bags of cerial just in a random drawer…

Knusper,

Personally, I ask myself why you need the box…?

Most cereal I buy comes without a box anyways, but can’t you just throw the box away, if it does?

Knusper,

These images always look so fucking creepy…

Knusper,

The GDPR literally does not apply for non-personal data. I don’t get why companies are so ridiculous with their cookie banners. Nevermind that they have no qualms violating the GDPR in plenty other places.

Knusper,

I just have some empty phrases for that purpose, like “It’s going!” or “It sure is a day!”. Feel free to combine with facial expressions that are difficult to interpret for maximum confusion.

Thing is, it’s smalltalk. Smalltalk serves a purpose and it’s not the acquisition of information, so your concrete answer is kind of vain.
Smalltalk is rather for getting an emotional feel for each other. It’s the first step towards any sort of interpersonal relationship. And it can also lead to deeper topics, but it doesn’t have to.

Knusper,

I’m mostly a fan, because I don’t feel like I have to have faith.

If my instance explodes, I’ll make an account on another instance. If the Lemmy devs collectively evaporate (and neither me nor others want to pick up the slack), then I can go to Mastodon or Kbin or whatever.

Individual rogue instances can be defederated. If e.g. Reddit truely disappears over night and Lemmy were to gain mass market appeal, then I can likely find a more isolated instance with a smaller community sharing my interests.

Knusper,

Ah, yes, AoE3 with the AoE4 logo. 🙃

Knusper,

I hear, it’s so potent, you can dilute it all you want and it remains just as dangerous…

Custom shell prompt tips and tricks?

Recently I stumbled over an article, about how to customize your shell prompt. What really surprised me, is that it lacked one of the most basic tips I learned nearly 20 years back: Always display a timestamp in the prompt, to be able to check how long a process is running or when it ended. (Don’t need it daily, but every so...

Knusper,

Universities are cool (presumably only if you live in a country without tuition).

Knusper,

ξ fucked me up a lot more than it probably should have…

Knusper,

But why not cross the seven instead?

Knusper,

Don’t go faster than the speed of light (optional).

Knusper,

We are currently in the 6th mass extinction event in the history of the planet Earth. 🙂

Knusper,

We’re already seeing an increase in natural disasters, with various areas experiencing floods, draughts or wildfires that didn’t use to have them.
This alone leads to political conflicts in those areas, but also leads to mass emigrations, ultimately causing the political egoists right in unaffected areas being strengthened, which could at its worst lead to another Nazi uprising, world war etc…

I do also think that humanity as a whole will survive (that is, if we don’t obliterate the ecosystems sustaining our lives, like e.g. pollinators). But our current life style of 8 billion people across all areas of Earth may not be sustainable anymore, which does mean the more privileged will be fine, others not.

Knusper,

Hours into his testimony, Trump attempted to read from a piece of paper he retrieved from his pocket. “I’d love to read this, your honor, if I could. Am I allowed to do that?” Trump asked. The judge said no.

Now I’m just imagining him reading a chapter of Shakespeare or something, like he thought he was in literature club.

Not that I could imagine Trump visiting a literature club, but I can imagine him thinking it.

Knusper,

I imagine, they stretch this out over a longer period, so no shitstorm forms…

Knusper,

Or just make it a GIF, for when you’re trying to cross during rush hour…

Knusper,

The existence of subwoofer implies the existence of domwoofer… ?

Knusper,

I also find it incredible, that there’s no GUI button to edit the path. You have to just kind of know that Ctrl+L does that…
