Ad-blockers are not just for YouTube. Moreover, addons can still be a draw for Firefox. For example, the built-in Multi-Container addon, and the ones that build on it, are very useful privacy and web testing tools.

No, the definition doesn't constrain the country to one language.

Title is correct. "Foreign", in terms of language, is a language not spoken typically in one's home country. Now, a home country only applies to a person after they've been born, which is not the case of the subjects of

Tangential, but if you're interested in orbital debris and anime, I warmly recommend Planetes. It's a "hard sci-fi" anime partially about how fantastic, and at the same time mundane, space can be.

I think you in this case, you should definitely try the VM route. Non-3d user interfaces, networking, etc should all work with no problems, MSSQL included. Do a prototype as soon as you're able, because that will answer most of your qu

I think we can safely conclude that they decided to not care about this.

My multiplayer game has anti-cheat that needs it, Photoshop needs it, MS Office power user usage needs it.

>folks quite clearly want to run Windows 11 without an account. Do they significantly impact the bottom line though - especially compared to what possibly they gain by these actions? Corporations can tolerate a bit of grumbling on some t

Windows can live in a VM no problem. But, depends on your use case. For GPU heavy usage, you can do GPU passthrough, and that needs a dedicated video card exclusive for the VM. If you only have light usage, like office tools, you can get by

This sounds like you'd like to beat them up. What is what you'd like to know?

Ad blockers were another huge draw, in my experience.

The problematic part is usually the solution, not the assessment part of these regimes, politicians, ideologies. Are there issues in Portland? Certainly. Will Trump's actions lessen them actually? Highly doubtful. Doubly doubtful for t

In case of any service, the user needs to be able to move on. To me, that is the ultimate antidote to most of the ails services afflict, like lock-in, altering the offer, raising the price above a reasonable limit, and so on. If the user ca

Long term damage, and risk are two things that don't show up with a test like this. Also, often why things go forward is just momentum, built from the past.

They charge little for storage and upload, but download, so getting your data back, is pricey.

Oh yeah. Regimes also figured this out. Make the preferred outcome the most convenient, delay or hide the negative feedback, and there we go, please choose the system on their own volition.

Yes, it's essentially a cat and mouse game, with the ultimate conclusion that the game itself is destroyed - in the current case, the open internet.

It's called "singular they". It's used like: "We have a new joiner in our team! They became the talk of the town very fast". I love this feature of the English language, while a bit confusing at first, I think

Counterpoint: one was imported and registered in Czech Republic, so it can be done "in Europe". Although I'm sure it's pricey, hard, depends heavily on jurisdiction. https://insideevs.com/features/72

Yes, and that's a definite upside. Supposedly the ReVanced app on the phone has SponsorBlock integrated (or the functionality, at least), but I don't want to risk my account with a third party app. So, I take what I can get in the

Why expect the other party to be perfect, or even good? It's a clear business proposal, I give $5, they let go of the ads. I can be critical whether or not I'm a subscriber, in fact, maybe even more so.

It kinda does, but it's not as neat as SponsorBlock is. SB fully automatically skips the sponsor segment, as soon as other SB users define where the it is, of course. With YTP's solution, you need to seek, and then click the white

It's two different kinds of privacy in this case. What the Badger offers is privacy from the domains run by advertisers. What you're talking about is privacy from the first party that you visit.

Subscribe to Premium! All the Google ads go away in an instant. Very cheap for the mental peace you get. Combine with SponsorBlock for a greater effect.

Not much is "wrong" with targeted ads from an advertiser perspective - the ROI is more than 2× times higher, compared to non-targeted ads: https://thenai.org/press/study-finds-behaviorally-targeted-a... And t

Thanks for linking this page. I am using multiple of these addons, but some years passed since I figured this setup, so it was time for reconsider the choices.

Yes, you are right! I opened one game, and then opened like 5 other of them, and the final one got the same server as my first. Multiplayer confirmed!
