I’ve thought about moving to typescript. Do you have suggestions for a 20+ year JavaScript dev?
When your hands are wet or you can’t grab your phone…the one thing I used Google assistant for, Gemini can’t do.
The Freedom Convoy was as much about personal rights as the Civil War was about state’s rights.
You know what I’d love to see?
People going to Tesla dealerships and just wasting the time of sales staff.
Especially if you have poor credit and have no way to pay for a car. Make them spend resources running your credit. Have your credit locked for good measure. Tell them that you unlocked it. Come back every weekend, confused as to why it’s not working.
Make it impossible for them to get a sale out of you, but jerk them around to make them think they might.
In other words: scambait them. Because they are scammers.
Yeah I keep pushing for join-lemmy.org to buy ads on Google and Bing.
It’s kind of like that guy that cheated in chess.
A toy vibrates with each correct statement you write.
I looked into uBlock rules. The problem is that you need to click “No” before continuing. Ublock can block the ad, sure, but they can’t perform user actions.
Scriptlets may be useful but I think an addon with a library of bypasses (sort of like sponsor block) might be better.
Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good enough.
Not all of us have the means to overthrow a government. We do have the means to make buying a Tesla as embarrassing and as difficult as possible.
If you want to help fund a government overthrow, I suggest that you work with the embassy for your country in the US to help make that change.
I already am. At this point, if I’m buying something on Amazon, it’s because I cannot find a comparable product elsewhere.
I’m even paying more at other retailers. I haven’t run the numbers but before I cancelled prime 4 years ago how, I easily spent thousands. Last year, I think I spent a few hundred.
This year, my goal is less than 100.
Amazon fucking sucks for me now. Every fucking purchase (which is getting rare and rarer) I get asked to join prime.
There is no “don’t ask me again”. Every fucking time I have to select “Not now”.
I’ve come close to writing a plugin to help you skip these ads.
Waterfox works great on Android.
The fact that excel lacks any sort of auditing or access controls. The fact that any corruption in the file could lead to the company not knowing what money goes where and who’s been paid and who owes them money.
Correlary: always test your backups and don’t just assume that they will work when you need them.
It’s possible to encrypt traffic without a cert that expires.
I don’t know much about how Chromecast works but my bet is that it’s like a hacked together lighthttp or nginx server, which is why it needs a SSL cert renewal.
What’s to stop a company from standing up their own instance?
If they only create an admin account and then federate to every instance, now they have everyone’s content.
I’m suddenly realizing the anti-AI blurbs people add to their comments now make sense.
Imagine a capital juggernaut like Amazon invested in truly renewable energy instead of just trying to be power hungry assholes trying to race Google to the AI market.
The amount of technology that they could create simply from these investments could change the course of our planet. But, no. Line must go up next quarter. Not 2 years from now.
This was Putin’s goal. Destabilize NATO. Crumbling US alliances is just the cherry on top.
We are losing long friends and close allies.
All because a plurality of voters want to feel powerful.
Even if it’s for a brief moment.
Librewolf btw.
I’ve personally moved to Waterfox and very much enjoying the experience, with a few hiccups.
He probably mining crypto on top of running his SQL queries.
