Sugar is half bad, half good: the glucose part causes no harm and whole body can use it. The fructose part on otherhand is bad and has to/can only be processed by the liver first.

Yeah, it feels like I blinked and it’s now October already…

(2024 was and still is a heck of an year for me. I have almost climbed out of the ditch on this year. Yay!)

I have begun to see that YT is being hostile to adblocker users - and this worries me. I assume YT is already probing the clients to see which are circumveting the ads.

I had an (let’s say unconventional) idea at one point: an add-on which only purpose is to show the YT ads in the background which uBO blocked. All of the blocked ads would be played (eventually) - except that the user can just ignore this happening in background and wouldn’t be actually seeing the ads. I.e. the browser would just move playing the ads into a background container not visible to the user.

The short version:

This means that you reset your password with a 32-character long generated password, which is saved in your vault, PlayStation saves a 30-long password and then you use the 32-long password to log in, which fails because it isn’t the same.

That password prompt should be scorched to earth.

When I heard the news, my first though was a mix of “Oh. oh no…”, “yay! no vendor-lock-in”, and “OH, NO.”

My expectation for the future is that a crowd fundraiser like on Wikipedia (does anyone remember those?) will be on the way for Mozilla… there is no way they can survive a 80% drop in the budget gracefully.

The NT kernel in isolation is apparently quite “ok”, from what i have heard of it. It’s the spyware, malware, driver crap (“windows”) running on/using it which is unquestionably totally fucked and disgusting. If they were to FOSS the NT kernel, I could maybe support an such endeavor.

Expanding your brain by 20% might not go well… that’s extra 20% to worry about.

This is actually very fucked. He literally sacrificifed a few billion cells of his own, and now he is refusing to respond how to burn up less cells to reach consensus of how many cells it takes to feel lava.

I have been using uBlock Origin and uMatrix together for so long, that I don’t remember when they became permanent must have… uBlock origin sanitizes the site, while uMatrix prevents any surprises since I last visited a site. The more garbage the site is, the more broken it is on my setup.

This had me chuckling more than I would have thought. It’s a obvious reference, and the choice of meme template is a nice twist where s/he is specifically not ignoring the auroraborealis occurring.
