- Comment on My new and improved privacy stack 3 weeks ago:
NordVPN is good for getting around geoblocks, not so much for privacy

I always put 1:1 beef and black beans in my chili.

I recommend not having a feed and instead using a self hosted RSS service like FreshRSS to subscribe to channels you care about
Then you can use filters to drop out the boring bits like shorts from the feed easily.

The search engine integration in Safari is a bit janky, but otherwise everything is peachy

100%
Been using it well over a year, maybe two?
It’s in my top5 of subscriptions I’ll cancel last if money is tight.
It’s what Google used to be - at least for the stuff I look for. YMMV, get the cheapest version and try it out.

A dude who once tried plain water and almost puked because it didn’t cover the vile taste of his rotting teeth.
Oh and he’s an actual millionaire who lives in a trash heap
- Comment on What Phone do you guys use? 2 months ago:
Company buys me a pimped up iPhone every two years. I’m due for an upgrade this fall again.
Can’t be arsed to buy a separate one, would buy a GrapheneOS supported one if that didn’t involve giving money to Google
- Comment on That's how the world works. 2 months ago:
We planted tomatoes on the backyard last year and we drowned in them, kilos and kilos of the stuff
It also would’ve been a lot cheaper to get the same amount from the grocery store 😅

A monologue is and actual voice talking in your head, I think.
Never experienced it so 🤷
- Comment on Consumerism ahhhhh moment 2 months ago:
I literally pay money to not see ads in my (local) streaming services.
The irritation and mental load from dealing with shitty ads is well worth the about 15€ a month I pay to have them removed.
- Comment on Consumerism ahhhhh moment 3 months ago:
This is the key.
Ads don’t care if you like or don’t like them, as long as you remember them.
The worst thing an ad can be is be forgettable

And then the US pro-Israel lobby call their senators who inform that if Mr Caller still wants to be employed in a few days, the guns need to keep flowing.

What would that phone call entail?

I’ll sniff this copium until the midterms

And DDG uses Bing and Yandex
- Comment on If you're a parent, how do you prevent your kid from watching AI slop? 4 months ago:
You can limit shorts in the YouTube parental settings! Just found out about this a few weeks ago
You can’t disable them completely, but you can set a time limit

Post nut clarity doesn’t hit for you?
- Comment on Mom with the real questions 4 months ago:
It’s not about standards. 3 grandkids will never need 7 China sets 😀
All needed exactly 0, I’m fine with the cups I have. I don’t “entertain”
- Comment on Mom with the real questions 4 months ago:
My grandma was the last one to go of all her sisters.
Her apartment had EIGHT full coffee sets, cups, plates, saucers, sugar dishes etc. just because she inherited them from her siblings and thought we’d want them
Nobody wants any of them, they’re old and pretty and also worth exactly zero euros.
- Comment on What's it going to take to truly stop the US? 4 months ago:
Using the Euro as the standard currency for oil would do it in a week.
Either the US invades Europe to prevent it or the country collapses.

Huge piles of trash might have a few batteries without the ends taped off and cause a fire, just saying
- Comment on EU lawmakers to study ban 'loot boxes' and other addictive features in video games 4 months ago:
The problem with a battle pass is that you pay for the chance to maybe get something.
If you can’t play or don’t pay well enough, it’s wasted money
With a loot box you get something right now. It might be shit but at least it’s on your account
- Comment on EU lawmakers to study ban 'loot boxes' and other addictive features in video games 4 months ago:
The ate paint chips and crayons
- Comment on Nvidia GeForce Now’s Time Limit Will Stop Gamers After 100 Hours Each Month 5 months ago:
And a spouse who wants together time. Also other hobbies than gaming.
The only thing I consistently do over a 100 hours a month is sleep 😅
- Comment on Nvidia GeForce Now’s Time Limit Will Stop Gamers After 100 Hours Each Month 5 months ago:
I wish I could hit 100 hours of playtime a month.
Still cheaper than buying a gaming PC by far.
- Comment on Indie Game Awards Disqualifies Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Due To Gen AI Usage 5 months ago:
I have zero special interest in AI, what pisses me off are weird vague rules.
If all copied code ever is plagiarism and must be reported, the whole world would grind to a halt as we need to lawyer up and rewrite everything with verified clean room protocols.
There are finite ways to solve problems with code, how can anyone prove a piece of code is actually written by them and not AI generated or copied from SO or a blog if they all look the same? There is no audit trail, nobody recorded their coding sessions with cryptographic signatures to prevent tampering.
What I’m getting at here is the complete impossibility of proving a piece of code is man-made and not plagiarised, copied or otherwise generated.
And if it’s impossible to prove something is man-made without a doubt, why have vague rules against code that is not?
