Yep! I’ll admit, I haven’t read the news, but by what people keep talking about in comments, it seems that ublock said that the reason was how annoying it was to keep fighting against facebook, but if they had just said “yeah we’re dropping facebook’s priority, not enough ublock users go there for it to be useful to monitor their changes as frequently” it wouldn’t become that big of a sign for other companies to do the same thing that facebook is doing (also throws shade at how dead facebook is) but at the end of the day this has always been a fight of attrition and what fuels ublock is spite, and for people to have any of it they’d need to at least care about the product buried under the ads

this is a legit question, but why can’t you run that program through wine? does it need a windows account validation step or something or does wine simply not work for that program?

Hi, first of all love cobblemon and wanted to say thank you for the work you’ve put on it! My question is if the people making lithium and the other performance mods that touch directly on the rendering of minecraft could help you all with this? I know that they were working on a vulkan version before it was announced, so they know of tips and tricks. Anyway, I do hope the new engine changes don’t give much trouble to you all and that you can continue working on such a fun mod!! Cheers!

What’s that? Ungesktiptet came back as “not written” from Norwegian

It’s such a stupid decision! They can’t even benefit from the better compression on all of the other images shared around because of this dumb decision

Nice!! I have been needing to upload some documents to websites with ridiculously small size limitations, so that’s really useful! Thanks!

Trust me, I want to get out of telegram, but the issue is that all of my friends do not want to leave. Stickers are a huge reason for them staying on telegram, but the real reason is that they’re used to it so they don’t want to try new stuff

Why did you upload it as a webp? Nothing against ya, but webp can burn in hell in for it’s sins (inconveniencing me when I forward memes to telegram and they come out as stickers) lol

Legit tho, how did you make it a webp? I never tried it, is it an export option on gimp?

But look at them over regulate and red-tape anything that could possibly maybe harm their profits by actually innovating and improving quality… Working in biotech and knowing we could fix a lot of the issues with world hunger and vaccines by using tech we already know is safe but is barred from use because established companies would not profit as much is infuriating…

This is such a dumb reference, but I cannot believe MumboJumbo’s current "mini"game project kind of perfectly predicted this… Bots trading to bots who are trading to bots all to boost the economy while the people are either starving to death within the system they robbed from us or living in the fringes and scrapping by

Because the EU is also trying to get it’s own age verification AND they can and have been influenced by policies from the USA as well as manipulated by the same corporations and billionaires that are getting these laws passed not only in USA states but also in other countries as well. This threat was already beyond the borders of the USA and everyone needs to take it’s threat very seriously

And who was running those camps? The tooth fairy? Get real ffs

What if there’s something else blasting lots of signal around the same frequency of Bluetooth (2.5mHz?) trying to pair with another device? I don’t know why else your Bluetooth buds would be skipping at such a precise interval, as I think that they would have some variation in the amount buffered depending on how much data per second is being transmitted

That’s incredibly odd. Do you know where the Bluetooth antenna of your PC is? Maybe it’s getting some signal blocking from a metal component that is between the antenna and the amp? That’s the only other idea I have, because I seen to recall something about Bluetooth having this tendency to “accumulate” errors until it just skips to try and catch up after it got too many bad signals, but I can’t guarantee this is just some slop my brain came up on it’s own trying to figure out your issue

I’ve had this issue with my old Bluetooth buds because their batteries were dying. My new buds don’t have any issues and it’s on the same 2010 laptop running mint with the same Bluetooth adapter, maybe that’s what’s happening to you?

Be the change you want to see in the world

I see, that’s very good to know!! Thank you!!

Samsung is in my shitlist for their horrible shady business with their smartphones, but even tho I want to never buy anything Samsung again I still think their m.2 SSDs are really good, did something happen with that division that showed it’s also shitty? I want to know and hate even more on Samsung

Story why I hate Samsung (was too long to put in the middle): bought a s21 fe thinking I’m getting a snapdragon processor, they hid never mentioned anywhere in the page that this specific model has their piece of shit exynos processor that literally struggles to run anything, overheats if it isn’t on battery saving mode and goes through the battery like it’s on sale

Linux isn’t for everyone, this isn’t a false statement, it’s 100% true. I consider myself more tech savvy than the general population and I have had to do a LOT of troubleshooting on every Linux install I tried, for things that should have just worked out of the box, and I needed help from friends who are much more tech savvy (people who deal with servers for a living and their hobbies are setting up NAS servers and messing with tech in general) and they all had some trouble with some issues I was having, like for example a Bluetooth USB adapter not working that on windows was just plug and play, and it turned out that the GUI that came with mint just didn’t actually change any settings, and I had to go to the terminal and type the commands to directly control the Bluetooth stuff. I can deal with all of these and other issues, but my dad who has to be reminded how to download a picture from whatsapp on his laptop to send through his email could never deal with Linux, something would pop up every single day and he would need someone to help him. Hell, I installed libre office for him to use and he kept having issues with it, his documents wouldn’t show up, they would not be saved properly or where he wanted, would lag a lot, updates would be super slow and that’s ignoring stuff like the GUI differences that made him constantly have to stop and search for what he wanted. I ended up installing office and cracking it for him to be able to keep messing with his text documents and excel sheets

If Linux is to become the OS for everyone, it needs to become much more foolproof, and currently it is not that

Good news! Brazil developed a single dose vaccine against dengue!! I don’t know when they’re going to start vaccinating, but the vaccine has been approved, it’s already tested and everything!
