I can’t say I vibe with this guy’s apparel, but the message is good.

I’ve just been using OptMeOwt for the GPC flag feature, but it looks like Privacy Badger (PB) does that and a lot more, nice. I use Vivaldi that already blocks trackers and have a primitive adblocker, so I don’t know how much PB will help, but I’ll give it a shot.

That’s good to know. Consent-o-matic is configurable though, it doesn’t just ignore the popup, it automates the setting of cookies based on your preference, which could be “allow everything”. So it comes down to how you want to handle those popups.

It’s slightly better than GIF, yet somehow just the “new GIF” when it comes to animation. At least nvidia only supports GPU decoding of webp in lossy and lossless configuration and not extended or animation etc. which is where it would’ve been most useful, so instead webp animations become incredibly CPU intensive.

Yeah, it’s not perfect, but it does handle over 75% of the ones I meet. I’ve noticed recently that it struggles with certain German websites for some reason. Most sites copy and paste the same type of cookie consent form, so maybe it just doesn’t know how to handle that specific type?
Anyway, one need to report the sites where it doesn’t work in order for the fellas that run it (Some Danish university students made it originally, not sure if they’re still in charge), to work on bypassing those new forms.

True, it’s very rarely used in Danish any more. We do however say “det fosser ud/ind” regarding money/water/gas, so it is used in those specific cases. But I don’t think I’ve ever heard it elsewhere.

2025 starter kit. Although manifest v3 will fuck things up in a June, at least for Chromium users (minus Brave).

Shinigami Eyes is also not a bad shout, but I took a look at the github issue tracker and I can’t make out from some of the posts there if it’s still good or if it’s compromised.

EDIT: Regarding paywalls, I used to use https://github.com/Angeloyo/PaywallHub but it has closed down due to (big surprise) legal threats. I guess https://www.removepaywall.com/ is the better alternative.

Thanks for the recommendation, I very quickly found “Markdown Here Revival” for Betterbird. Sorry that I don’t have a recommendation for you though.

Perfect analogy.

The red-green party here in Denmark was against EU until Brexit - now there’s no party against EU. Thanks Britain for showing the rest of EU how big of a fuckup it is to stand outside Schengen and everything else.

FOSS is either “Free and Open Source Software” or a Danish company that makes valves and termostats and stuff like that hehe
EDIT: Wait no, that’s Danfoss I was thinking of, but FOSS is still a Danish company except it provides “high-tech analytical solutions”, whatever that means. Idk what’s the deal with “foss” names and Denmark, it doesn’t sound very Danish to me (as a Dane).

From the looks of it, most are Italian projects so far.

I wasn’t aware of pika backup, but it does look good. It’s basically a fancy GUI for borgbackup, but I like separate projects like that, each focusing on what they do best.

It’s not like there’s more sunlight, it’s just offsetting where in the day you get the most sunlight. Turn the clock back and you get sunlight earlier in the day, and turn the clock forward you get more sunlight in the afternoon/evening.
As someone living just north enough in Denmark, winters are brutal depending on your job, and I’ve mostly had factory-like jobs where I spent most days inside without sunlight, so I’d drive to work in darkness, spend most of the day in artificial light, no windows, and then drive home in darkness.

Still holding a job at 75 and can’t afford dental care, that’s rough…

I was sort of hoping there’d be a torrent with all the most popular ROM’s but nope, you have to create an account one of the two forums that host ROM’s to be able to download them.

YES! Get rid of that dumb shit!
Not sure what programmers have to say about this though. Ideally DST would’ve been scrapped like 30 years ago back when there were a lot fewer people using computers, so a lot of code wouldn’t need updating as soon as such a change is implemented, but waiting will only worsen it.
I think keeping summertime is the better option. Having a bit of sunlight when you come home from school or work in winter would be priceless. Even if it means darker mornings.

This is an old article as @[email protected] points out, but I stopped drinking coffee 2 months ago because the prices were getting so ridiculous.

I’m imagining a minefield made up of cans of surströmming. I wouldn’t put it past them to break the Geneva Chemical Weapons convention like that.

Limited invites to give out, scarcity mindset, I’ve been there myself, so I understand.
