  • It costs $23/mo for fucking YouTube? And to get the same experience you get with a free browser add-on? Fuck all of that. Absolutely not.

  • I don't work in the dark. I work during the day, when my employment hours are. When it's dark I'm not working anymore.

  • Senior dev and I like dark mode because I also like my retinas.

  • The videos by TJ DeVries seem like probably the best starting point there is. He's a contributor, has built a setup script that's meant to be minimalistic and configurable, and has tons and tons of info about running through all of it yourself.

  • What Router can you recommend?

    Jump

  • I guess maybe too mainline for everyone here but I use an Asus router flashed with the Merlin OS (a painless easy process) and it works excellently. No issues setting up all the things you mentioned.

  • Meta just showed off Threads’ fediverse integration for the very first time

  • What's the issue with lemmy.world? Serious question

  • Professional Engine Tuning Software

    Jump

  • I'm a techy and a tinkerer. I run Linux on a lot of machines and I self host some stuff, and I also mod and tune my car.

    I keep a windows laptop on hand that at this point I literally only use for tuning software. If something goes wrong with the car I don't want to go through trying to fuck with booting a niche engine tune program in Wine on a Linux machine with an OS that may or may not even recognize the OBD device needed to flash the tune. Too many places for things to go wrong and the end result is a car I can't drive.

    Unless you're very comfortable with having your car unusable for long periods of time while you troubleshoot things, I'd highly recommend having a windows laptop for car tuning.

  • What ads are you trying to remove?

    Firefox on android allows you to use uBlockOrigin. YoutubeRevanced is an excellent application patcher system that you can use to remove ads from YouTube, Twitch, Spotify, and many other. F-droid has some good resources.

    If you're playing games with ads, it's a little harder. You probably need a piHole on your home network for that (they are super fun either way).

    In general, yes, I guess it's a little harder to remove ads from your entire phone than it is to just remove them from a desktop web browser. Way better than Apple's options though.

  • Android is one of the easiest places to block ads.

  • Styled Components' type system is one of the most impressive and most fucked up things I've ever had to dive into.

  • Is 1337x Broken with dots or am I using it wrong? Trying to find the movie C.H.U.D. from 1984 but search returns nothing or only wrong results.

  • Kinda low on alternatives with rarbg gone. Any recs?

  • What’s next for Mozilla?

    Jump

  • It's not. It's massively expensive though. There's money pouring into it because it's the next big thing. Eventually, the companies that can afford to consistently power a massive LLM learning server farm will be the ones to keep going, the rest will flounder, get acquired, or disappear. Mozilla isn't a big enough fish and won't get acquired. AI is not a fad, but it's not a sustainable business model for a company like Mozilla so I hope all their eggs aren't going in that basket.

  • Youtube has started to artificially slow down video load times if you use Firefox. Spoofing Chrome magically makes this problem go away.

  • It's a one-time sync though. If I want history from what I watched on my desktop today I have to resync.

  • A better Revanced

  • ReVanced taps into my history with microg. When I watch stuff on desktop with Firefox and uBlock Origin, I want those videos to show as watched on my phone when I open ReVanced so I don't get recommended the same stuff. That works.

    GrayJay can't do this. It's not better. It's a good idea, but it's a side grade.

  • Spotify re-invented the radio

  • Literally the opposite. Pirating takes time, effort, resources, and I lose access to "everything" - I only get what I take the time to download and store.

    If a product I pay for provides a great service, I'll keep using it. It's worth the money for excellent user experience and convenience. It's when they keep upping the price while reducing the features or content that bothers me, and that's when I'd rather spend the time pirating than paying them for a worse product.
