Flip a coin. Seeing duplicate posts on the home page is annoying.

Our only options were to remove the extension or manage it.

The best option is of course to install another browser and remove chrome.

That’s the whole point.

EVs have very little exhaust coming out of their tailpipe. Which is one of the reasons why those are better than fossil powered charriots.

So tires being a larger source of pollution than exhaust, in relative terms, is especially true for EVs.

You make a good point, regenerative braking is probably reducing pollution in absolute terms.

New England Journal of No Shit, Sherlock ?

Not surprising, but kudos to Standford University researchers for putting the work and collecting data to confirm this.

Especially for EVs

You’re right. Above, I was referring to the bitwarden desktop app. See https://github.com/bitwarden/desktop

It’s an electron app, and there’s no auto-update solution for DEB packages (ie no DEB repo for apt auto update).

Some people are probably happy with it, but I prefer KeepassXC which is more lightweight (ie not electron based) and can auto update via APT.

I hear good thing about Vaultwarden, but the web UI is horrible.

Vaultwarden’s web UI is very confusing, especially the search feature. And it’s difficult to move items between folders/collection. The desktop app is available as DEB/RPM package but without auto-update, which isn’t great.

Fon now I’m sticking to KeepassXC because the desktop app for my Linux distribution has a package for it and allows auto-update. The UI works well, and it has decent browser integration. Syncing isn’t smooth, but I can live with this.

I meant to write “he’s nuts”. Sorry for the typo, fixed it.

Like how Stephen Colbert setup his own SuperPac on air, showing how many ridiculous and unethical things are legal with US’ current campaign finance laws.

He’s nuts, alright. Let’s hope the USA has enough checks and balances, and some sane people left, to avoid the worse.

“Everybody I’ve spoken to loves the idea of the United States owning that piece of land.”

This would be comical if it weren’t so inhumane. “Everybody” is the last person he’s spoken to, ie Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Forced displacement of Gaza’s population would likely be a violation of international law […]

Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant, the former Israeli defence minister, have been issued arrest warrants by the International Criminal Court for alleged crimes against humanity and war crimes.

Would the ICC investigate Trump as well if he take action and tries to take over Gaza?

human staffers and AI-powered algorithms prevented 2.36 million “policy-violating apps” from appearing on Google Play in 2024

I wouldn’t assume it’s 100% malware. A portion, hopefully a small one, are legitimate apps that faced automated rejection with automatically generated reply citing a vague “policy-violation”. A few open-source apps wrote on their blog they gave up uploading to Google Play because of its disfunctional moderation. Some even gave up developing their app.

For instance, see https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing-android/issues/2064

This alone doen’t make you a Nazi, but that’s still a terrible course of action.

A wise man once said…

The world will not be destroyed by those who do evil, but by those who watch them without doing anything.

Calling out Musk and his actions, and avoiding the company that he owns and control, are the least one can do given all the trouble he’s causing, or trying to cause.

Several companies sell electric vehicles, and unlike Tesla, most aren’t owned by a Nazi (sympathiser).

Meanwhile in the EU: TikTok, five other Chinese firms hit by EU privacy complaints

clinging for dear life

He shoudn’t send DanSupp a cheque directly, but help him setup a non-profit or foundation for Pixelfed, then give that foundation a cheque.

Dan is doing a good job developing Pixelfed, but it looks like a one-man show, and that’s a bottleneck for the project.

No. This is no help if YouTube blocks your IP range. And it’s not a podcast feed.

Yes, but many YouTube channels don’t have a RSS podcast equivalent. YouTube is somewhat of a walled garden, like Spotify is.

I don’t know. My ISP doesn’t know. And I won’t bother interacting with Google’s non-existing support.

My solution is moving away from YouTube whenever possible, for instance subscripting to podcast instead when a creator has a podcast with the same content.
