  • Everytime I try to start something with Linux I fail.

    Jump

  • Hahahahahahaha, you're a... tech "miracle"! For the 10 years with Linux I've never uninstalled the DE by accident or otherwise, or any of the other problems you mentioned. I have fucked up my computer only once but I did it on purpose - to see what will happen. I had already created a clonezilla backup of a working system, so I was free to experiment and... I decided to uninstall both kernels (rolling and LTS) and reboot. There was no kernel panic because there was no kernel to begin with. 😆

  • I've seen those messages but I've always ignored them. I restart whenever I decide, not when Mozilla wants me to. 😆

  • No. That's the brainwashing talking. By keeping you scared about your security, all browser developers keep you under their complete control. And with that they impose their views on what your browser should look like/behave like. But most of the time they simply remove or change options - some are visibly removed/changed, others are either hidden or in about:config and are locked, so that you can't use them or are just rendered inoperable. Security updates are just the excuse to impose their will on you. I had it enough of Mozilla's constant chopping the browser off, so I moved to Waterfox which brings back all options Mozilla ever removed and then some. But by the time you remember that the browser is supposed to serve you, not the other way around, it will be too late.

  • These buttons on my tabs REALLY piss me off, how do I turn them off ?

  • I've disabled it long ago and yet it keeps popping up on FB, YT and all other websites. Clearly "disabled" on Firefox means nothing, so... CSS.

  • I'll never understand this mindset of tourists

    Jump

  • Yeah. The majority of the churches in Sofia (Bulgaria) are 300 yo, some are 500+ yo. I think one that is underground is 500+. There are the ruins of an even older than that church but they don't take pictures of that. Go figure...

  • The route they usually take is quite short. I can walk it in 10 minutes without rushing. I did follow them once, out of boredom and saw what they took pictures of - the rocket (some call it a mosque) and the 3 christian churches in the near area. I also asked their guid and she confirmed it. No matter what nation they're from, they always take pictures of churches only. I suppose I can understand taking pictures of one specific church bc it's underground and the reason for that is historical, but the rest... When it comes to churches and/or bibles, I prefer to do what they show on "Lords of Chaos". :D

  • Doubtful. Last year the most of them were Americans, this year the tourists are mostly French and Italian. I pretty sure there are churches in all 3 of these countries, especially in Italy, where sits the pedophile HQ - in Rome.

  • They provide a vital function, unlike the churches. Still, it's pointless to take pictures of them. The same way I don't understand the logic behind travelling a thousand miles (or more, cuz some of these tourists are Americans) and the only thing they do is take pictures of the brainwashing factories.

  • Removed

    Do I have to create a new account for another instance?

    Jump

  • Thanks. This makes things... sort of more clear but not by much. Bc I've joined an atheism community which apparently is on .world and I can comment there just fine. But at the same that post I mentioned opens at .world and says I must login. (scratching my head where it doesn't itch 😂) Still, thanks to all three of you for the answers, I wasn't sure if my question will be answered or deleted.

  • I've always wondered how to remove the audio button, so I'll use your code - thanks!

    I don't suppose you know of any CSS to permanently disable the picture-in-picture mode for all websites?

  • What will MS do when Linux becomes a serious threat to their monopoly ?

  • If not, what do you think “lock-in” actually means?

    That they'll lock you out of your repo without access to manage it, maybe? Or threaten you to make your software inoperable in Windows, if you don't comply? IDK, they can always think of sonething but if they think I don't already have full copies of my projects on my computer, they're deeply mistaken. 😂

  • What do you think about the new menu of Firefox Android?

    Jump

  • • The manually pinned literally sink somewhere behind the repeatedly pinned links from other sites, so manually is pointless. • If "force stop" and then start FFA were enough, I wouldn't mention phone reboot. • Never heard of those but I'll definitely try them. Thanks for the info. • If it does, I'never found it in the settings. Or, for whatever reason, it doesn't appear on Xiaomi phones.

    Reading Hadriscus' comment below ours from 2 weeks ago, looks like the reason I abandoned the desktop FF (and went for a fork) has been moved to FFA - enorcing their view on what's best for the user without giving the user the option to revert what they have done. Do I have to say this behavior which famous corp. reminds me of or will Mozilla think of it themselves?

  • Fortunately I'm safe from that bc right after I assembled my current PC (even before moving the distro to it; yes, moving, not "installing"), I entered BIOS and disabled secure boot, IPM 2.0 and pretty much everything Spyware related. Only then I booted Clonezilla and extracted from the backup image. Since I had done the same on the old PC in BIOS, that means my Arch was never installed with SB and IPM active.

    On top of that the last update of BIOS nearly broke it, so I flashed it back to the more stable version the motherboard came with. And since I have no intention to update BIOS, I'm safe from all that trouble.

  • They will, if you change the links and share them with at least your users.

  • How exactly do they hope to lock devs in github??? That's absurd, there's no way they can achieve that. I can always take my projects elsewhere and there's nothing they can do to stop me.

  • What distro do you game on?

    Jump

  • Arch. Just dropping the dxvk/vkd3d libs in the game main dir with exe and double click. No need for bottles, crates, kegs and other warehouse ware. 😂 Just plain old simple and highly customized Wine 10.5.

  • Why CNN produces articles exactly like some religious newspaper?

    Jump

  • When the country is run by religious wackoes, what else do you expect? CNN is just the tip of the iceberg.

  • This only proves what kind of ret_ards religious creatures are.
