Crazy, I'd think the fluctuations would be way too big. How long does it normally run for when it does a cooling cycle? Is that temperature throughout the fridge or only on certain shelves? Ours (well, our landlord's) runs very co

The recommendation I've always heard in the Netherlands is 7°C, it's more recent that I've been seeing 4°C on meat packaging in Germany (where I live now). I doubt anyone's fridge is consistently at or below 4° without f

Note that a small temperature difference that is sustained very consistently over a long time using a tiny amount of electricity (let's say half of what the parent post cited, so like a COP of 8) could add up to a lot of nearly-free co

Thanks! CT logs do explain it. So it's not actually the DNS entry or vhost, but the sharing of the new domain in a well-known place. That's making a lot more sense to me! I can see how that happens unwittingly though We also use C

This requires running the install scripts with your shell permissions rather than with the webserver's permissions, if I'm not mistaken. I could see why one might prefer the other way, even if shared hosting is less common nowaday

Blocking providers makes sense since they can talk to the human that is doing the abuse. It's their customer after all Like with IP ranges that send a lot of spam/abuse, it's the provider's space in the end. If the sende

Sadly they dropped XUL some years ago. I stuck to that version for all the customizations it allowed, but became untenable and it was clear I couldn't run a browser from 2017 for the next 50 years so I bit the bullet. I'm now also

I'm not aware that you can pay for Google Search. That they have a paid tier for Youtube is probably to cater to another group of people rather than to "align with your values" and encourage people to actually pay for things

I don't think you're normalizing ad-supported content when running an ad blocker As for paying for the content you consume, most of the costs aren't on Google's side. I can understand paying for Youtube as a shortcut to

There is also an argument to be made that adblocking is immoral. I think the idea is pervasive enough to fill a team of willing people, especially if you pay them 100k/year to at least go along with it for the time being I haven't
