Any cons to just right-click and block the page element with ublock?

You might’ve lost us at calling anything apple sells a “loss leader”

Wdym by mobile?

I almost went into the low voltage field, but realized with a bit of job shadowing that my commutes could be unpaid and unpredictable between changing jobsites. I guess that depends on the employer, and goes for any construction-related trade.

Follow up question - I downloaded a bunch of mods per my friend’s recommendations, and in the Mod Manager in game, I loaded all of them.

One of the perpetual mods, Hatsmod by tekgamer950 has an Error status. Should I be concerned if it’ll affect my ability to join a server hosted with it?

I forgot to mention I use mint cinnamon, btw.

I downloaded the shim file, moved it to my Raft folder, right-clicked the shim file, Properties > Permissions > Allow executing file as program.

I followed the rest of the steps up til step 9. At step 9, I replaced the text in the target file with the the file path to RaftModloader exe, but had to add the RMLLauncher.exe file name to the end. Otherwise I got a “File ‘target’ contains invalid or nonexistent file path.” message.

I followed the rest of the steps, and - it worked! Thank you

Edit: thank you for making the process feel so much more elegant ;. ;

Plus, personal anecdote – carbs don’t curb my hunger as quickly as protein and fat do. On a heavy protein day, I snack little to nil.

Earnest question - what trademarks does Nintendo/pokemon have on artistic style?

Follow up question - why do you have multiple mice plugged into your computer?

I think they’re quoting the linked Forbes article not the linked Reuters one. I searched for “edgelord” between the two

I remember hearing somewhere, and believe, “a person can do a bad thing, but that doesn’t make them a bad person.”

Know where can I find a breakdown of the symbolism behind the intro?
For me, it’s hard to watch. I feel like I got bungeed down into the deepest depths of the bottomless Uncanny Valley, coming back up covered in oily black ooze, but I look down at its just my hands, my clothes, my normal skin. I think I’d appreciate it more if I knew what and why what was going on.

POs?

Wish I knew where to watch this documentary. I remember it being a fun watch

Toxic as in workplace relations or toxic as in environmental effects? Or some other third meaning?

I’m out of the loop on this one

On Boost, the columns got narrowed to each three characters wide, just to fit all columns on screen width-wise

On the one hand, no one here is downplaying this administration’s illegal treatment of immigrants.

On the other, anything that helps my neighbors realize they are not fucking safe either from this administration’s dumpsterfire is a small win.

My take is that bluesky is owned by a corporation making a protocol (AT protocol) to Embrace, Extend, Extinguish.

See example, Microsoft trying to convert the internet to only run on its own browser. Or Google enticing websites to use AMP, only to entrap those sites to only use Google’s ad services.

When profit drives development, enshittification is not a matter of if, but when.

How is development of ActivityPub protocol funded? Volunteers and their grants, crowdfunding, and enthusiasm, as far as I can tell. @.@ Idk if it’s a reason objectively worth supporting FOSS for, but I love when people pool together for their community’s greater good.

Why make a bluesky account when you have all the different platforms that already run ActivityPub? Want a youtube replacement? Peertube!
For Reddit, Lemmy.
Instagram, Pixelfed.
Twitter, Mastodon.
Interact with all on the same account? Sure!

But with bluesky? Nope.
