Using a Chrome user agent in FF can result in broken video / audio playback on various sites.


“You’re just a tiny minority, most people like the change”

They did the same shit with their redesign with their idiotic floating tabs. They look ugly and they even take up way more space, while displaying less information, for literally no reason. They argued the need this change for future FF features, which yet, several years later, have yet to appear. Here’s a quote from “Paul”, one of their moderators - almost 3 years ago:

Hi,

We bring a modernized and differentiated look to tabs since Firefox 89 in order to create a signature Firefox look and experience. This major redesign will help us enable more use cases and features in the future.

I love Firefox and will continue to use it, but its decline is a mixture of Google’s aggressive embrace, extend, and extinguish approach and straight up continued mismanagement of the Mozilla Corporation.


It’s like “jaywalking”. It purely exists to bully and discriminate against pedestrians and declare the streets belong to the cars. That’s what you get when you have big ass corporations do the lobbying.


Sounds like coil whining to me too, albeit a pretty loud one. It’s typically GPUs and / or PSUs that are the culprit when they’re under load.



DDG doesn’t use its chatbot though, which also still is blocking all VPN traffic.


One of the many reason I don’t buy too much into the hype. The internet is generally a bad data source because of how much nonsense there is. And those “AIs” are still nothing but glorified chatbots like Cleverbot, just with a better data set to pull from. In the end they still very quickly fail and talk complete bs. Not to say they cannot be helpful or fun but people really need to be mindful about it. As always, don’t trust every little shit that’s on the internet, and that includes chatbot outputs too.


Does that fix it? I disabled the whole addon because it interfered with the anti adblock measures. Unfortunately many features of it are pretty broken at this point and the author even removed it from the Firefox addon page.


Why would you use two adblockers at the same time? That’s just bound to cause problems. And that doesn’t even go into the whole adblock plus drama.


Box spring? You’re funny. I have a mattress on a cardboard bed. lol


Is this actually a growing issue right now or just some media panic?
Because I just bought a couple regular mattress protectors, the ones you put on top, not the ones that encase the whole mattress. :/



You do you but it also means that if they suspect you of illegal downloads or streams and get that court order, that they’ll log that shit and then you’ll receive those lovely letters eventually, making the whole point of the VPN pointless.



Yeah, those seem cool, although probably still not something for my inept ass to use but it’s nice to see products like these starting to pop up. Some are also not too insanely priced either. Anyone who did some benchmarks comparing them to just regular consumer gpus yet? I couldn’t find anything.


I think KoboldAI runs locally, but like many current AI tools it’s a pain in the ass to install, especially if you’re on Linux, especially if you’re using AMD GPUs. I wonder if we’ll see some specialized AI related cards to slot into our pci ports or something. Not a whole lot of necessary options to fill them nowadays anyway. I’d also be interested in local AI voice changers too. Maybe even packaged like a Roland VT-4 voice transformer that sits between your mic & whatever audio other audio interface you might be using, where you just throw the trained voice models onto the device and it does all the real time computing for you.

I’m sure things get more refined over the next years though.


Mostly just streaming, maybe some direct downloads i like paywalled / premium OC. I couldn’t really afford either anyway so I can’t say I feel too bad about it. If VoD providers wouldn’t have turned out to be so garbage I might’ve gotten one of them, but not if that means I can’t watch everything anyway. Like what’s the point? I’m not gonna subscribe to everyone or hop around services. Exclusive content kinda killed them in my eyes.


I think tech like this makes way more sense for like random ass NPCs. Like the ones cluttering the background of a city or whatever. AI could really enhance them and make them interesting.


You made up some word salad that had nothing to do with the topic, got called out for it and now got no actual arguments left. You’re welcome.


At least something we can agree on, except that people like you being the reason why that is the case.


lmao
What in the absolute fuck does this have anything to do with being democratic? Are you just throwing buzzwords around now? Seriously, just move to Russia and get shredded on the front. It would do us all a favor.


Hungary is suffering from their own pro Russia policy making & voting, which they’re still holding onto. So apologies when I can’t bring up a whole lot of sympathies for them and the repercussions they’re facing from that. Germany is also not doing the greatest, and for similar reasons, at least in the energy sector. But at least now most parties sans the far left and far right have understood that.


Well. If you think the grass is greener on Russia’s side, then go on and move over.
I also like how you avoided the other persons question of how that’s the EU’s fault for Russia to play imperialistic asshole.


Inflation rate of the EU is at its lowest since October 2021.
Meanwhile the conversation rate is 99 Ruble for 1€.
So yes, thank you. We’re actually doing pretty alright. But I’m sure your propaganda media tells you something very different.


That’s easy when you consider that there hasn’t been basically any sort information about S42 for a long time now. Still doesn’t really prove anything about a potentially finished product.


Right after headlines of SC losing the faith of the community. lol
Also, Starfield has already launched. Not that I would even compare the two titles but Squadron 42 has still to prove its actual existence.


Outside the US that term is usually used for market liberalism.


Same for Media Bias / Fact Check.

Could not find anything in the source code related to that either so I’m not sure from where that description is pulled from.


The travesty is how many people are unable to say this out loud. Everyone is stuck in their black & white tribalism, making them blind for their own sides atrocities.
You can be pro Palestine and still condemn Hamas. You can be critical of the Israeli government and still grief for all the innocent Hamas victims. It’s not actually that hard to be a decent human being.


misinformation

noun

  • Wrong information; false account or intelligence.
  • Untrue or incorrect information.
  • Information that is incorrect.

Would be a pretty bad misinformation campaign if they were telling the truth.



In what way? The sidebar is possibly the only thing I can think of.



Hm, I guess it’s an alternative. I’ll give it a try. The Fandom & Fextralife wikis constantly being at the top search results often pisses me off.


What if there are no alternative wikis?


I was considering using they / them for a second, just for shits & giggles, but then thought it’s likely not even really used in a lot of dialogs anyway (very much true after many hours later now). In hindsight it would have probably just confused me though, thinking they talk about someone else. Because I am super tired from literally playing too much, which completely fucks with my concentration & attention span. lol


Honestly, the game is exactly what I expected from all the pre-release info. It’s a Bethesda RPG in space. I didn’t expect a space sim, so I didn’t expect any sort of dynamic streaming for seamless planetary transitions and the likes, because they very clearly stated that this wasn’t a thing.

And the capital G Gamers seem to be more bothered by pronouns, body types, female leaders, all the “replaced white people”, etc. lol
Seriously, stay away from the Steam forums folks.


Not sure what shitty ad blocker you’re using but I can see the entire article without ads.



What’s the second plastic bag for? On checkouts we only have paper bags. At least for like throwaway ones.
