A well-timed cat poster can have the same effect. The problem is, if there's little substance to the message, the effect is short-lived. The key to running a good cat poster business is spacing out the shallow messages, you can even re

Fuck that, I have a better regulation: Targeted ads are illegal, punishable by death. Let's force a different (I don't care if it's "better") business model.

Now I get it. No. But you can post links to your site to them manually.

It really is the best. No need to create and maintain another account, no need to reskim over read/intentionally skipped entries, filters for things you know you want to always skip.

What is it that's only allowing you to play audio from a single source at a time? On my desktop that sound just plays over other sounds, nothing pauses. I hate auto-play media as much as the next guy but your real problem is an awkward

Do you know if installing Portacle will mess with any existing configurations of those things on Linux? In particular Emacs. I have everything backed up but, since I only plan to play with CL, I don't want the headache if it does.

While it seems inevitable, I really hope there's going to be a way to do all this without having to authenticate and link a name, credit card and cell phone. I really don't like the idea of not being to travel more than a few mile

"You shouldn't evaluate the validity of an argument based on where it comes from" Then why is his name is in the title? He's not the first person to make these points. The only reason The Guardian has to publish this ove

Does anyone care about his opinions on this kind of thing? He fought to put DRM into every browser, you can't come back from such a poor political move.

Anything at a custom domain that doesn't look direct to an individual (e.g. not realname@domain.tld) is a big hint to spammers that the owner uses a catch-all and thus any address will get the job done. I suppose you could go with a wh

I bit the bullet and registered with my real email address. The email from solani reiterates "If you don't want to use your real E-Mail-address, please use an address from the top-level-domain ".invalid"" Where&#x2F

I think so. A few days ago someone posted something [1] about how they use their own sub-domain to alias CDNs so they can simply update DNS records to easily fix issues with a CDN site suddenly moving or disappearing. I argued that this bre

I bought a raspberry pi specifically to run pi-hole, with the assumption it would be able to YT ads but, as far as I can tell, it doesn't. It's been good at blocking in-game ads though. Another bummer is that it only works on my h

Any site running third-party JS should get the red "insecure" icon like http sites do now.

Does that block YouTube app ads? I use Firefox and uBlock Origin on Android, I use YouTube through that and I don't install any apps with ads. But my family seems to be unable to give up using the YouTube app and every time I see my ki

Advertising _without tracking_. Advertising was done that way for all of human history until recently. Take away their ability to run arbitrary code on users machines and the problem is completely solved. There just needs to be an advertisi

HA! That made me think of what might be an interesting feature on a forum, if the parent gets downvoted, all the children do as well. Might prevent feeding trolls or expanding off-topic conversations.

Just keep in mind anything simpler likely has additional attack surfaces. e.g. Anything that's cloud based, browser plug-in, centralized, etc. all bring the standard attack surfaces in that domain. Still, it's probably better than

Any reason Signal isn't available through F-Droid? It may be unjustified but I'm not a big fan of installing privacy conscious apps through Play. Edit: Wait, haven't installed anything yet, but I read the getting started guid

Are you sure this move isn't just a business practice we're all too stupid to realize we should be against? I'm not. I'm not touching it. Maybe if it goes GPL.

And I assume the reason they don't just say the Getty battle is the reason for this is due to other legal concerns about libel and slander. Even if we find alternatives to Google Image search, the alternative will get stuck in the same

Doesn't that kill the possibility that a visitor will already have common content cached when visiting your site for the first time? I know that's not the only reason to use a CDN, but it's a pretty big one.

I like touchscreen devices for infrequent input interactions. If my screen is already unlocked and the app I need is already open, for consumption based applications like article reading and video watching, it's great. But as soon as I
