I typically end up installing chrome for the odd website that does require it. Firefox is still my daily driver on all platforms though, not sure what Mozilla is thinking with their future plans.
No, Chrome. Specifically for the DRM stuff to access streaming services and casting, things that don’t quite work well with Firefox (by design). I use libre stuff when I can, but I make exceptions, I know not everyone uses Linux that way.
Switching user agents isn’t going to get around DRM implementations. Anyway, that was for specific streaming services I’m not using any more, so I haven’t needed to use Chrome in months.
It’s a real shame that generally lefties don’t really care about or ‘get’ software freedom. You should be pushing for free software on all levels. In your personal life and in government. It’s crazy how much power a company like Apple, Microsoft or Google has over everyone.
I remember reading somewhere (probably my high school textbook) that one of the reasons people don’t like wind power being built is they cause visual pollution....
Exactly this. You maybe don’t want them in the middle of Yellowstone (although if you put it near a visitor centre or something to power it instead of putting in miles of pylons, it might even make sense there). But people that complain about random fields suddenly being a ruined view because of a turbine are just entitled.
This meme is explicitly about the President committing crimes and getting away with it. I don’t think this is something you want, whether the President’s a Democrat or a Republican.
Yesterday there was a controversial movie torrent that was getting 1000s of downloads and was on the “popular this week” page, and today it’s just gone. I went to the uploader’s account page and it’s not there either. Just like it never existed....
Yeah, I don’t pirate software, but I’d prefer to stick to private trackers, even though i’m tempted to look at stuff like radarr and sonarr that use public trackers too, just for convenience.
Heh, our company is bigger but I guess we don’t use spreadsheets the way you do. At least on the dev side basic functionality is fine, and our core business runs on real databases and stuff like AWS quicksight.
It was useful for the American Empire, which isn’t there to serve the American people, but their oligarchs instead: the people that own the oil companies and suppliers to the military. Whenever a country decided they wanted to control their own natural resources, a coup would happen.
According to Ortis, briefed him about a “storefront” that was being created to attract criminal targets to an online encryption service. A storefront, said Ortis, is a fake business or entity, either online or bricks-and-mortar, set up by police or intelligence agencies....
I downloaded a “Linux ISO” which came as a series of *.opus files. My iPhone doesn’t recognize them, so I was wondering if you guys might recommend a program to convert them to *.mp3 files....
It’s not necessarily human intervention that did this, the Sahara desert was a lot smaller back then, and there’s evidence of regular rain eroding the Sphinx. A similar process happened to the Levant.
Yep, their business model is basically to sell smaller packages for a low upfront price, taking advantage of customers that either don’t have the money to buy the big package or have limited transport options.
It’s another one of those things that illustrate that it’s expensive to be poor.

Why don't public restroom stalls have OPEN/OCCUPIED indicators like porta potties do?
I hate peaking under the stalls or knocking doors to figure it out. The answer is so simple.
