Tired8281 , to startrek in Star Trek executive producer wants more Strange New Worlds episodes, and I’m nervous

I don’t see the problem. They obviously would hire more people to do double the episode load.

Tired8281 , to world in Singapore hangs third person for drug offences in little over a week

I’d say I was happy, too, if I thought they might hang me or cane me if I didn’t. Happy as hell, sir!

Tired8281 , to news in Oklahoma parents, faith leaders and education group sue to stop US’s first public religious school

I’d send my kid to Lucifer P. Satan Memorial Elementary.

Tired8281 , to technology in can we please keep this community about technology and not Twitter/X and elon news?

Would not be opposed to a new community that focuses on the business side of tech companies!

Tired8281 , to technology in can we please keep this community about technology and not Twitter/X and elon news?

Like it or not, it’s tech news. When Intel does something interesting, or Google wets the bed again, we’ll talk about that a lot, then. Right now it’s Elon doing dumb stuff. Last month it was spez. If we ban every hot news topic, what’s left to discuss?

Tired8281 , to technology in Google engineers want to make ad-blocking (near) impossible

Threatens, as in, hasn’t happened and may not. Not all threats are true.

idk how well stuff works on Chrome Mobile. I use a different Chrome-based mobile browser that does allow extensions, and Ublock Origin works great on it. Turns out there’s more than one way to skin a cat. Who knew?

I’m well read on Manifest v3. I’m also aware of a Ublock Origin version that is designed to work under it. I have it installed and ready to go, for if and when the old one stops working. But that has only been threatened, too, and not even by Google.

I’m not certain it is just an assumption, but I am also not certain it is a prophecy. Until I get more certain, I’m not going to bust my hump worrying about it. And I’m certainly not going to bellow to the hillsides that we’re all doomed.

Tired8281 , to technology in Google engineers want to make ad-blocking (near) impossible

They already do that from my Android phone, and I’m sure as hell not going Apple. Linux phones aren’t there yet, maybe in a few years, but I’ll still need an Android phone for the same reasons I’d need a Chromebok, bank apps will never support Linux phones. And yeah, like everybody said, VLANs. I already have one for untrusted IoT devices, I’ll just spin up another for Chromebooks.

Tired8281 , to technology in Google engineers want to make ad-blocking (near) impossible

Not from them! They don’t make a dime when I buy yours.

Tired8281 , to technology in Google engineers want to make ad-blocking (near) impossible

Google has a track record of attack articles written against them, all talking up their intentions to tank adblocking, including this attack article. And yet, my adblocker still works and my ads are still blocked. Strange that we just assume this is what they intend to do, when there’s no evidence they’ve pulled it off, we treat it as if they have.

Tired8281 , to technology in Google engineers want to make ad-blocking (near) impossible

Just means I’ll have the shittiest Chromebook I can buy used, for access to the sites you just listed, and my Linux laptop for everything else. If their non-financial, non-commerce site won’t let me in with my adblocking Linux machine, I just won’t go there. There will be lots of site still, run by us, that don’t do this shit, and they’ll get my traffic.

Tired8281 , to world in WHO says soda sweetener aspartame may cause cancer, but it's safe within limits

Just a little, light cancer.

Tired8281 , to startrek in Me when I try to explain Lemmy to outsider...

Janeway, when she was talking about making sense of temporal paradoxes.

Tired8281 , to showerthoughts in If we call reddit users redditors, what do we call lemmy users

Lemmiers.

Tired8281 , to mildlyinfuriating in The price of a cinema ticket in this day and age. No wonder people aren't going to the cinema anymore.

How is it legal to make up a fee then offer a paid membership to avoid the fee you just made up? How is that different from the mob guys that would collect your “insurance” membership so that you didn’t incur a “business burned down” fee?
