rules for thee, but not for me (or those who give me money)

~ $1-2.5k usd, the cheapest having a whopping 4 gigabytes of storage.

We are living in the state of Fuck it.

pretty much sums it all up right there.

i don’t deep dive into it enough to be a ‘nerd’, but i’ve been using some form or another since the early days of slack and debian.

even though it had shipped with windows, the installer would not detect my ssd for whatever reason.

bios probably defaulted to using a storage mode (like ‘raid’ or intel’s rst) that requires ‘f6’ drivers loaded during windows setup. solution would have been to either find those drivers or switch bios to ‘normal’ ahci mode.

and you could change him into something else. links the cat was mine.

try a new and quality hdmi cable, and use the ‘main’ hdmi input on the new tv–the one that supports the latest rev of hdcp. use no adapters or extensions or splitters or switches. disconnect every other input to the tv and output from the bd player.

you may also need to connect the bd player to the internet, at least temporarily, if it has that capability.

real-life clickwrap.

i nuked my post history and haven’t logged-in to ‘that site’ in about two years. there is one sub i lurk in occasionally that hasn’t gained any traction on the lemmy equivalent. that’s it other than the (relatively infrequent) pointer to a post from a web search for which no other alternative was listed.

the only way that fucking idiot should get one is if he jumped into a wood chipper and amid the global celebration, a sustainable peace broke out.

there is mv3 version of ubo here:
https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBOL-home

dunno how well it works on yt, though. i use dlp on a pc for the time or two a month i ‘need to’ look at a yt vid.

adguard’s free browser extension is also mv3 compliant (for chrome). i think the old adblockplus (disable ‘acceptable ads’ and ignore offer to ‘upgrade’ to a paid version) is, too.

donvict’s goon squad is trying to start something that they’ll then turn around and blame ‘protesters’ as they mow 'em all down and haul away those who survive.

he’s got what he wants… a wrecked government with crippled enforcement capacity of certain things, tax breaks in the pipeline, and all of our data to match with all of his data.

2016, too. literally a convicted felon 34 times over from efforts to illegally influence that election.

snapd is in debian repos so you can add it if you want, and then also integrate it into kde’s discover.

here when i search for something or someone ‘newsworthy’ i get links to other sites ahead of msn, those links do go to the expected sites, and the favicons (that are all msn in the posted image) are also correct. in fact, only one first page out of the five searches i tried even had an msn link at all–at #9.

if you haven’t added the flathub repository to your new debian kde desktop install, discover will only show you packages from debian’s repositories that were automatically configured during installation… even if you’ve added the flatpak ‘backend’ from inside discover–flathub still has to be added to your sources (see step 3 in link above).

once you have multiple sources of an application (for instance, ‘vlc’), discover will add a ‘sources’ pulldown (top right, next to the ‘install’ button) where you can choose debian system package or flatpak (or snap, if configured).

which source you use is entirely up to you. on my own debian desktop, i usually stick with debs if it has what i’m looking for, as i’ve chosen debian and have accepted their pace at which new software is added. if i wanted ‘bleeding edge’ i would have installed something else entirely on it. but you can certainly go ‘all flatpak’ if you wanted to.

too often. but at least they’re $50-80 flippers and not $1000 slabs.

and the whole thing ends up being even worse

what factories, dumbfuck?
