Protester shot in the eye with rubber bullet during ‘No Kings Day’ rally in downtown Los Angeles

Police use firearms at point blank range equipped with rubber bullets to get away with literally shooting out the eye of an American peacefully expressing their legally protected 1st Amendment right to protest during the ‘No Kings Day’ rally in downtown Los Angeles

TL;DR -

FTFY

1. Cook at home and eat healthy
2. Sleep enough hours every night
3. Cultivate and maintain healthy non-familial relationships
4. spend meaningful amounts of quality time with family
5. Work at a full-time job 40+ hrs a week
6. Play video games or engage in other hobbies

Choose 3

You cannot effectively do the rest.

I do 4, 5, & 6.

I slept 3 hours last night and have an embarrassing number of Uber Eats deliveries each month… but on the bright side I count the video game time sometimes as “cultivating healthy relationships” when I can get ahold of my fellow gaming dads who don’t go to bed until after 1am… 🫩🥱

It’s an expensive carbon spewing parrot.

For your web browser, don’t use Chrome. Use Firefox with uBlock, NoScript, Sponsorblock, and a VPN like Mullvad.

For Smart TV usage, block your TV’s built in “smart functionality” and its access to the internet via MAC address blacklist on your router. Also use SmartTubeNext on a Shield Pro with FLauncher instead of Google’s.

For mobile, use 3rd party YouTube clients on your device like Vanced on Android, and Unwatched on iOS.

I’ve mentioned this topic in regards to animated images, but don’t see as big a reason to push for static formats due to the overall relatively limited benefits other than wider gamut and marginally smaller file size (percentage wise they are significant, but 2KB vs 200KB is paltry on even a terrible connection in the 2000s).

What I really wish is that we could get more browsers, sites, and apps to universally support more modern formats to replace the overly bloated terribly performing and never correctly pronounced animated formats like GIF with something else like AVIF, webm, webp (this was a roughly ~60MB GIF, and becomes a 1MB WEBP with better performance), or even something like APNG…

Besides wider gamut, and better performance, the sizes are actually significant on all but the fastest connections and save sites on both storage and bandwidth at significant scale compared to the mere KB of change that a static modern asset has.

This WEBP is only 800KB but only shows up on some server instances since not every Lemmy host supports embedding them :

Literally go watch video interviews with the Boomers’ parents in the 1980s when seatbelt laws actually went into effect…

They react almost identically as depicted in the meme.

Hey I saw this episode of Silicon Valley!

AI slop… well it’s all AI slop, but things like misplaced anatomy, or incorrect numbers of malformed digits, and misinterpreted symbolic representations and brands is the most egregious forms of AI slop.
