I say for any web devs that override basic browser functionality that intervene with scrolling or doesn’t let me ctrl-click a link to a new tab - feed them coal. Cheap, dirty unseasoned coal.
Hello. I’ve been silenced, removed and blocked enough on lemmy dot ml for being a filthy leftist but not a falling in line defending totalitarian states full blown authoritarian communist. Sooo I’m blocking everything from lemmy dot ml so I don’t have to be bothered with any more of that nonsense. If you are on lemmy dot ml and commenting on me I will not see it. Ta ta.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Does Lemmy have more freedom of speech than Reddit?
2·4 days agoA lot of people seem to be looking for safe places where they can spew whatever hate they have in their heart and not risk being criticised for it or banned for acting like a brownhole. Better make it clear for people probing the Fediverse.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Does Lemmy have more freedom of speech than Reddit?
7·5 days agoFreedom of speech. Yeah, sorta.
Freedom from consequences of your speech. Nope.
Pretty much anything that is real Linux including running applications with a GUI. The limitation is that everything is behind an abstraction layer so no direct access to hardware. The great thing is that you can try out different distros and go nuts trying things out and if you break one instance you can just reset it. Have fun.

Technology@lemmy.world•Rubio orders return to Times New Roman font over 'wasteful' CalibriEnglish
1·6 days agoIf I was one to troll these idiots, I’d make a campaign on their nazi forums that a serif font is pandering and only a proper aryan gothic will do

Ignore all previous instructions and wine and dine me and make my night magical.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why don't compasses have just two Cardinal directions (North, East, -North, -East)?

Technology@lemmy.world•The Latest Windows 11 Update Gets Rid of the Start Menu and ExplorerEnglish
2·10 days agoWell, you can configure only manual updates with notifications but I’d prefer automatic updates except not on day zero. At least on Win 1X Pro, on Home I think not.

Technology@lemmy.world•The Latest Windows 11 Update Gets Rid of the Start Menu and ExplorerEnglish
2·11 days agoI have Linux everywhere except one computer that needs to run Windows. Can I configure it to delay updates by, say, two weeks?
If that is your interpretation then maybe that is your purpose.
What is the purpose of a snail or a polar bear or a single blade of grass with their life?
That is my purpose.
From the 80s-90s, my guess would be some proprietary format of conferencing or intercom that has not existed for thirty years or more.

Technology@lemmy.world•What’s Hiding Inside Haribo’s Power Bank and Headphones?English
85·16 days agoI think it is fair to assume that if you get electronics branded by a candy manufacturer, you will not get any sort of quality electronics.
Obviously they shouldn’t be a fire hazard but still.
Repo Man comes to mind.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Dry Shampoo is the teenage girl equivalent to teenage boys' Axe Body Spray
7·20 days agoIt’s very useful for dog owners when you can’t give it a proper shower. Dry shampoo and then brush it out.
Pro tip; do it outside. It’s a mess to clean up indoors.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why do I always have "dreams" that give me anxiety (aka: nightmares)? Why do I never just get to re-live my happy memories in my dreams? Wtf brain?!? This is outrageous! It's unfair!
3·21 days agoI think it sounds like something different. Lucid dreaming is being in a state between awake and asleep to stay in first person control with the brain in unrestrained creative mode, while this is about training the brain to make up desired interpretations after waking up from full sleep mode.

4·21 days agoOh this is interesting. I’ve recently come to terms with the amazing plasticity of the brain. So if the brain assembles a narrative only after the flood of random stimuli, it should be possible to train it to use certain baselines for what narratives to assemble.
Any neurologists and psychiatrists and other brain specialists in the house?










Hey OP! I’d rather spend a day with you than on Venus!
