> In general, of 3rd party blockers, uBlock Origin isn't even the best, AdGuard is. Why? I thought uBlock Origin on Firefox was the most effective combination available (assuming that you use the same filter lists).

HDR photos taken on iOS or Android devices are displayed as SDR images when opened on Windows. The gain map that they contain (see ISO 21496-1) is ignored. Before the ISO standard it didn’t even work between iOS and Android. This is what OP

What you are taking about is also called HDR, but has nothing to do with what the other person is talking about. The other person is talking about the still image equivalent of HDR video formats. When displayed on an HDR capable monitor, it

Apparently I was wrong about that part. Only the part about cents still being legal tender was correct. So you can pay the exact amount, but not demand the exact change.

Thanks for the correction. So only the part about legal tender was correct, which is probably what I was confused with. The relevant part: > The one and two cent coins will remain legal tender, and retailers can choose whether or not to

In the Netherlands cash payments get rounded to the nearest 5 cents, in both directions. Card payments are not rounded. If I’m not mistaken, you can still demand exact change according to the law and you’re allowed to pay the exact amount (

Without having any experience with the APIs to back up my claim, I believe that the WebExtensions API is more powerful in the sense that it allows more complex blocking rules. AdGuard seems to include both options simultaneously, where you

I got RSI using a touchpad, which then transferred to using a normal mouse. I couldn’t do anything with a mouse for longer than a few minutes. I completely fixed it with a DXT Mouse 2 (and later 3). My normal (mechanical) keyboard doesn’t g

I’m running Ollama on 2 eGPUs over Thunderbolt. Works well for me. You’re still dealing with an NVDIA device, of course. The connection type is not going to change that hassle.

It gives weird results for me. I’m using Qwen3-32B with 32K context length at Q4_K_M, with 8 bit KV cache fully offloaded to 24GB VRAM. According to this calculator this should be impossible by a large margin, yet it’s working for me. Edit:

You might as well use uBlock Origin Lite. The point is that all of these options are less powerful because of the limitations of manifest v3. Instead of downgrading the effectiveness, they’ve opted to release a separate less powerful option

FWIW: you can disable DoH without uninstalling the profile. General -> VPN & device management -> DNS -> automatic.

Safari on iOS does support adblockers, in case you didn’t know. And I’m not taking about DNS level blocking, I really mean browser extensions. I’m using AdGuard, but there are other popular options too.

With a 128K context length and 8 bit KV cache, the 27b model occupies 22 GiB on my system. With a smaller context length you should be able to fit it on a 16 GiB GPU.

Yet it can’t block anything from a hostname that also serves regular content (that is, without also blocking the regular content). A good example is YouTube ads. I’m also a happy NextDNS user, but I don’t browse the internet without an adbl
