Firefox has a bunch of setting like deleting cookies and history on close that can be configured. I find that hard to use as a daily driver. For me, Firefox containers and uBlock origin works well enough. If you do want to do some auto conf

My MX does everything I want under KDE. About 2 years ago the ability to tell me (and warn me) about my mouse battery level just appeared. It was quite nice to have an update that brought changes you wanted.

Thats pretty dismissive to the problem at hand. Uber could run an operation with full time employees and benefits. The downside is that they would have to hire less people, those people would have to work set hours, and there would be a g

I’ve had a really good experience with shipping on Discogs. Better then what you get buying directly from the artist (though I do try to do so when possible). I’ve bought from record stores domestically and overseas. Would recommend.

I find voice control helpful when entering text. Instead of trying to arrow in "The Simpsons season 6 episode 3" on a remote, you can just get it transcribed.

> Okay: so it seems like they're assuming irresponsible and wasteful behavior on behalf of drip-coffee makers. Not to mention it ignores the other ways of consuming coffee, such as pour-over or French press.

Presumably not, unless there was a plastic coating of some sort. The Nespresso pods in the article mentioned a silicon coating on their metal pods. I don’t have an idea if that would leach or not. Since the recycling process for those metal

Interesting article. It really does highlight how “just put it in a landfill” can be a legitimate strategy. What about the carbon footprint if the coffee is brewed with renewable energy? Depending on how you brew your coffee, I can see pods

The sheer scale on these photos is amazing. Seeing galaxies strewn around like marbles is very humbling. I hope there are more plans for deep space photos. I wonder what a telescope on the other side of the moon could capture.

I don’t support bailouts of mismanaged companies, and I do think that sending money directly to the people helps substantially. A company not doing well during COVID-19 isn’t necessarily because they were poorly managed. Giving people money

The point of my argument is that the government can save money by keeping a company from folding. Having a bad return of a couple hundred million is better than a loss to society of larger proportions. My point is to avoid the whole, a pe

Well, pretty much all the bailout money requires that the business not fire anyone (or re-higher anyone that they did fire). For example, thats how the small business portion of the CARES Act worked. The recent airline loans/bailouts r

Almost all those transistors are in a nice little package. Using transistor count isn’t really a good way to define a devices serviceable complexity. People repair phones all the time, it just requires the knowledge to do so.
