dancing is for everyone, just gotta find the right headspace (and the right music, it’s still hard for anyone to dance to music they don’t enjoy imo).
I disagree. If it implies forcing one self and a lot of work, it definitely isn’t for everyone. On top of that, some people (me) just refuse to dance, because I find it stupid and not even funny.
Yes, I have stepped many many times out of my comfort zone. Thank you for you concern. However, I consider dancing such a stupid, meaningless thing that even my stupidest part plainly refuse to even think of learning it. It’s not like it is a useful skill anyway.
is it useful to be able to impress your preferred gender of person
I don’t need to “impress” anybody. And if someone would try to “impress” me by dancing, lol, good luck with that. And frankly I prefer to avoid people that love dancing. So I don’t need (not even want) to maintain these kind of relationships.
Let’s stop here. I’m not going to change my mind on this topic. Ever.
Okay, but what if their carelessness about privacy directly or indirectly affects you? For instacne, if someone in your contacts doesn’t prioritize privacy and has granted apps access to their contacts, it could potentially expose your information indirectly.
I understand this and every other example you point out, but let’s be real: I can’t physically check what my friends, family and beloved ones do with my (meta)data without heavily invading their privacy (that’s ironic) or schooling them about how evil GAFAM are and so on. Most of my friends aren’t also technically inclined, so it would be both a waste of time and a source of useless arguments. I just do my part and I can’t do more. Neither can you, frankly.
And I have moved my mastodon account to an instance who actively defederated Threads. I’m not interested in interacting with anyone on that network.
And I’m fucking sick of the “content relevant for me” thing. I interact with people asking/giving help, discussing and so on. Mindlessly consuming “content” is simply a disease.
Just migrate your account to a different instance, if you plan to use it. It’s not difficult and many of them already defederate from Threads (mstdn.social, for instance).
I use docker myself on my RPi4, but the OS is on a 128 GB SSD connected through USB3. These SSD are pretty cheap nowadays and (likely?) more resilient than sdcards…
No, the links about Mozilla show how corrupt their directives are. Peole are so eager to scrutiny competing browsers/company and their forgive every shit Mozilla or their board do.
By the way, who cares about Brave’s CEO? I don’t agree with his political views, but for me their browser it’s the best out there at the moment and the company itself isn’t politically active at all.
Did you ask any other Mozilla employee what their political views are, by the way? How can you be sure that all of them are “good persons”? Do you buy your stuff on Amazon, by any chance, knowing how evil thy are? Are you sure that your grocery store’s owner/your mechanic/your doctor/etc. isn’t an homophobe or a bad person? Please, be coherent and go and ask all the people you make deals with what their political views are.
I’m not upset. I may have been unclear. I just find funny that people in the (F)OSS/Linux community (which I’m clearly part of) are very prone to scrutinize Brave and other companies, while they pretend not to see what’s going on at Mozilla, which seems to always get a free pass.
I used to like Firefox (been using is since 2002ish…). But after a lot feature removals and, last but not least, the ugly UI redesign (despite the negative feedback in the nightly/beta phase) I just jumped ship. I’m not going to waste my time fixing it with CSSs, unfucking what Mozilla did wrong. Anyway, Brave is just faster, it performs better and has a no-shit UI.
This, plus the disappointment I’ve had with Mozilla, gives me exactly 0 reason to go back.
OP has literally said that YT didn’t block them/didnt show any ads while using Vivaldi… As far I’m concerned, I couldn’t care less. I don’t use YT at all.
I mean, it depends. Tutorials, for instance, when I need some info on something to fix, either physically or informatically (e.g., hosting and network stuff). Video format is utterly time expensive for this kind of stuff. I avoid it like the plague. For entertainment, I have a couple of subscriptions a la Netflix. I’m not interested at all in watching/listening “content creators”.
Adguard and pihole rely on DNS redirects - googs has already implemented “secure DNS” for Chrome in Android, which circumvents network level/local DNS by connecting to a Google owned DNS, serving content using those listings instead.
You can chose many different neutral DNS in AdGuard/Pihole and also in Android (quad9, for instance). In Android I use my own AdGuard Home instance as my DoT server.
They’ll likely bring this to all flavors of Chrome.
Inbuilt AdBlockers work well and wont’ be affected by MV3, as they are not extensions. Don’t spread FUD.
Yes, one should use Firefox.
No need to be so masochistic and I wouldn’t use it regardlessly. I don’t want to give undeserved market share to corrupt Mozilla Corp. I’d rather watch ads. But, as I said, there’s no need for that, because between DNS blocker and inbuilt adblockers of better browsers, I haven’t seen a single fucking ad in ages.
Same. Since… forever I maybe use youtube once or twice per year. There’s nothing interesting for me there that I can’t find somewhere else, and often in written (not video form), which is less time consuming and less prone to useless “padding” for “monetization”.
There is a 0% chance you were an adult in the early 2000s lol
I’m 49, dude. And the meme isn’t about “the internet”. It is literally about the difference between people sharing stuff back then and “creating content” today. Shitty internet parts have always been shitty, but at least people didn’t try to monetize even their beloved ones’ death.
I considered myself a pretty “normal guy” back then and paid my domain/hosting and had a hand-written HTML+js blog/website with no ads… And plenty of “normal people” used to do that, even if it was a much smaller percentage of internetizens than nowadays.
