The things you listed is what society wants you to do, not what you want to do. Do some hard thinking what YOU want to do with your life and what is important to you; nothing else will give you peace and fulfillment. You can set some long term goals if you want, but from experience i tell you to start with something small and keep that up, that’s hard enough as it is.
If what you achieve and what you want is not the same, you will not be happy at all.
I feel for the fans, but it’s the right signal at a critical time. Artists have the means to sway the public opinion and energize people.
Compare that to the private Foo Fighters gig for Amazon execs, which cost a ton while they were kicking out workers because “every dollar counts”.
and you can also add:
“I don’t care about cookies”
i referred to this part of your post - the addon does not add filter lists but skips GDPR Cookie dialogs by denying all. you can install it from addons.mozilla.org
please use “I still don’t care about cookies”, the original one has been bought by Avast, who in turn belong to Gen Digital, owner of AVG, Norton and Avira - not the most trustworthy names anymore.
https://searx.space/ has a listing with responsetime for the sites.
i use www.gruble.de, has worked without issue for the last month or so.
google chrome will go the way of netscape navigator and internet explorer. might take a while and a antitrust case or two, but we will get there… again.
I also use librewolf and have settled for iceraven on my phone. the list of installable extensions is much longer (even if not everything is working yet, depending on how far mozilla has come along) and it has about:config support, which gives me a pretty close approximation of my desktop browser.
domain based blocking systems are nice for a base level of ad removal, they do nothing if the ads are coming from the same domain. sponsorblock is nice, but it’s the work of volunteers to remove those ads - if youtubes userbase were splintered over thousands of apps it wouldn’t be feasable.
i don’t know when i have seen just text-based ads in the last 10 years. those are an non-issue, even for me. the issues are scripts, user profiling and tracking.
the big difference is: the browser gives webpages/apps a standardized environment where the user has the last word regarding what runs on it or not (if you are not using chromium anyway). in apps, the user doesn’t have that luxury, especially regarding tracking and profiling.
i join in on the PSU chorus. no bluescreen normally means power loss, so either the PSU craps out, or it doesn’t get the power. a defect of the mainboard is not completely out of the question tho.
grab yourself the free version of HWInfo64, and check the voltages below, they should be a) stable (and i mean stable - mine do not move at all and i would be concerned if they did) and b) close to the values in the name (12v, 3.3v, 5v). since you have complete power loss, it’s probably the 12v.
PSUs do age and lose about 10% of “maximum wattage” where they still stay in tolerance levels per year.
e: even if the voltages seem stable and ok i would still start looking at replacing the PSU if it’s old. e2: a classic one would be loose cables tho, either Power Cable or the 12v connector to the mainboard
i think i would get notified in some way if the Mozilla Foundation changes ownership, and since it’s open source that is not much of an argument. open source is getting more common the last few years, but it’s definitely not common
sure, it doesn’t mean they can’t. everyone making their own app also means that they don’t per default.
and you didn’t touch the point regarding NO ADBLOCKING IN APPS while the whole debate here is because alphabet doesn’t want effective adblocking in their browser.
I’m sure there are a lot more reasons, that’s just what came into my mind
veracrypt is a thing, encrypting drives does not need TPM.
Just boot using the good old Master Boot Record for a clean solution (The Veracrypt documentation gives a good overview). Veracrypt works with EFI too, but the EFI partition itself cannot be encrypted. You can even create a hidden OS, if you are forced to give out your password, theres still plausible deniability.
For most recipes (esp convenience food), you just drop the temperature about 20°C and keep the time the same. But in the end, you will have to experiment a bit since every oven is a little bit different.
googles search results got so bad in the last few months that i switched to a searXNG instance and couldn’t be happier at the moment. no profit incentive, so i get no-bullshit results. they can keep their SEO-infested AI garbage results.
yeah, any european country near the alps can help - or ask someone with experience in building subways. no need for toxic sludge there.
Children of Morta has great storytelling and good Gauntlet-style gameplay :-) Risk of Rain 2 is real fun, and good to play with friends!
i can agree on Control, Outward, DRG and Remnant, they are all excellent!
Gen Zero and Kena are in my backlog - will put them on top of my list based on your recommendations, thanks ;-)
Taking a stroll through my library:
My current FPS fix is Deadlink: another roguelike FPS, very tight gunplay and movement, good looking too.
if you can give a few examples what games you enjoyed, i can probably point you in the right direction… i think i have a slight game collecting problem with a few thousand titles, but at least i can help people like you out lol
you download the corresponding depots using the console / steamcmd. Here’s the process using the console.
if you have to cancel 20% of your flights because your pilots start working according to their contract, after you do not give them a pay raise that covers inflation and drag the talks out 22 months, then you are a scumbag of an employer and deserve to see how your precious company that is built on slavery goes down the drain.
