I actually do this. With uBlock Origin you can set to default block any JS (or just 3rd party JS) and then whitelist by domains. Then you can lock in per-site settings.

Does Incus allow you to use a VM with a GUI? One thing that's nice about Proxmox is I have one VM with a very basic lxqt setup for when I need that, and I can either use remote-viewer + the spice protocol to access it or access it through the Proxmox web ui. That's been very handy.

Don't tell the morons responsible for this what's written on the Statue of Liberty.

I haven’t used Reddit since the api change but I suspect stating that Luigi mangione is a hero who did nothing wrong would get me banned on Reddit. Social murder is completely cool and ok. But actually killing the man who oversees the system of social murder? How dare you!?

I predict that this guy is a moron.

Oh shit, my prediction already came true!?

Andy yen praising trump is one thing and I kind of don’t care about that so much. What I do care about is how proton practices predatory sales to cash in on FOMO. Or if you subscribe for one month it’s an auto renewing subscription. Or that the best rates are if you sign up for a year. It’s weird for a not-for-profit structure to do billing like this

Mullvad doesn’t play games. A flat price and you get what you pay for.

God, I wish I were in the market for this. I have a baseline m1 Macbook Air and a lack of funds, so I can't quite justify another laptop. And while Asahi Linux is very cool, going forward I really want to support good Linux-friendly vendors.

Just like the Signal thing where they mistakenly added Jeffrey Goldberg, the real issue for most of the upper echelons of the media and political classes isn't that they're funding a genocide and bombing Yemen (this should in fact be supported fully), it's that they didn't follow proper comms protocols and goofed their opsec. It looks bad! What's worse than looking bad while managing empire? To them, nothing.

There is another issue on their tracker that was opened many years ago about relicensing to GPL, but it kind of became one of those things where a bunch of people came in and discussed it back and forth to death with no resolution.

I remember the lead developer of the Rust version of Coreutils gave a talk about the project once and he addressed the licensing question by essentially saying (paraphrasing), "I don't care about this. So I just picked one." You'd think someone so involved with open source as that guy (seriously, he has a hugely impressive pedigree) would care, or would at least give a justification.

I like Lemmy a lot, but when you share a URL it's just an ID number. Compare that to Reddit, where you can get a lot more information on what you're about to look at just from the URL alone.

Are there any plans to make Lemmy URLs more meaningful?
