No. Do not use chromium based browsers, period.

Firefox + unlock origin is all you need

Chromium should be enough of a reason to get rid of it.

I don’t get it… why not just restore tinymce?

wordpress.org/plugins/classic-editor/

Description

Classic Editor is an official plugin maintained by the WordPress team that restores the previous (“classic”) WordPress editor and the “Edit Post” screen. It makes it possible to use plugins that extend that screen, add old-style meta boxes, or otherwise depend on the previous editor.

Classic Editor is an official WordPress plugin, and will be fully supported and maintained until 2024, or as long as is necessary.

At a glance, this plugin adds the following:


<span style="color:#323232;">* Administrators can select the default editor for all users.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">* Administrators can allow users to change their default editor.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">* When allowed, the users can choose which editor to use for each post.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">* Each post opens in the last editor used regardless of who edited it last. This is important for maintaining a consistent experience when editing content.
</span>

In addition, the Classic Editor plugin includes several filters that let other plugins control the settings, and the editor choice per post and per post type.

By default, this plugin hides all functionality available in the new block editor (“Gutenberg”).

I agree, markdown for posts is great. I looked for md plugins but the seem to not be great. Honestly, I developed using wp for like a decade, but I kinda lost interest with the Gutenberg editor bullshit.

You can be banned from lemmy.blahaj.zone for calling out transphobia

I recently made a new account on lemmy.blahaj.zone, because I’ve been harassed and doxxed on my old account and I wanted a fresh start with a more lighthearted online identity that I could be more open about my gender identity on. I’d heard blahaj zone was good for trans people, so I made my account there. And yeah,...

Hatred of politics is a transphobic, sexist, and racist trope

No it isn’t. You’re just a butthole that tries to use the Transphobia label as a weapon against anyone you disagree with. Ada was right to ban you.

You don’t get to define what people do or do not like. If someone says they hate politics, your only choice is to believe them until they give you reason to believe that they are lying, that or be a butthole. It appears that you chose to be a butthole.

In this case sexual assault is almost a guarantee. If for no other reason at all, that one should be enough to warrant her being housed in a women’s prison.

I love beehaw. The leftists here are shining examples of how we as a society should behave. We universally distain what she stands for and what she has done, but pretty much all of us advocate for her humane treatment. I am so thankful that I signed up for this instance instead of one of the others.

My main sources are as follows:

  • Beau of the fifth column
  • Phillip DeFranco
  • Beehaw

Between these 3 I stay pretty informed without overdosing on bullshit. I get a bit frustrated with DeFranco sometimes because occasionally he’ll miss some needed context, but in general he tends to be very good.

I used to have five or six sources that I used but I realized that the steady drip feed of BS was taking a pretty significant toll on my mental health.

YouTube premium raised their prices. I had got it back when Google music was the thing. Then they raised the price. Then they raised the price again. Then they raised the price again. The last price raise gave me the motivation to check out Spotify and newpipe.

I haven’t looked back.

Linus was the CEO at that time. Those are his words.

Scary_le_Poo,
@Scary_le_Poo@beehaw.org avatar

So I just watched the entire team apologize for Linus and then Linus proceeded to attempt to gaslight everyone watching.

Fuck this guy.

Scary_le_Poo,
@Scary_le_Poo@beehaw.org avatar

Wow, well, that’s one way to attempt to rewrite history. Either you are uninformed, misinformed, or delusional. I suggest you read some of the LTT related topics on the front page.

Scary_le_Poo,
@Scary_le_Poo@beehaw.org avatar

There is tons of info in this thread about what happened. None of that was a mistake.

Apparently you are just misinformed and seem to have no will to take in the relevant information, which renders your opinion on the matter meaningless.

Scary_le_Poo,
@Scary_le_Poo@beehaw.org avatar

The onus is not on me to inform him when he can scroll up and find the original gamers Nexus video, the LTT response, etc.

His arguments have absolutely no basis. There is no point engaging with someone who refuses to inform themselves on all the very public information that is available. Especially when it can be gleaned by nearly zero effort

It is a water cooling block designed for a specific graphics card. It is a new type of design and Billet Labs sent their best prototype (as in, the only one they had) to LMG for review. Linus proceeded to strap it to a video card where it didn’t fit, so bad that there was a 1mm gap (which might as well be a million miles when you’re talking about cooling). Of course the performance sucked due to it being strapped to a card it wasn’t designed to fit, linus trashed the block and the company.

And here’s the part that just fucks me off. Billet Labs SENT THEM THE CORRECT CARD WITH THE BLOCK! There is literally no valid excuse for putting it on the wrong card, Billet Labs sent them the correct one!!!

And the thing that a lot of people aren’t understanding is the Billet Labs is not some large corporation, it is two guys putting hard work into a product. Unless I’m mistaken, they have regular ass jobs. People talking about them being able to sue… With what imaginary money? LMG is a 100,000,000 dollar company (at least). Their sloppy, misinformed, shitty, shameful, video basically has the power to cut them off at the knees when they did absolutely nothing wrong.

There is so much more to this, but whatever. Linus is a garbage person. I feel as though Luke is a decent guy but afraid to give Linus the reality check that he desperately needs.

Anyway, the first sentence answered your question I think. I rambled and ranted.

Scary_le_Poo,
@Scary_le_Poo@beehaw.org avatar

Honestly I could care less if it was just YouTuber drama. The reason I care and the reason it makes me so angry is because Billet labs is just a couple of guys trying to make a product. They aren’t some big company or anything like that, it’s just a couple guys working on a passion project. But then Mr Big money YouTube star does literally everything wrong, doesn’t even bother to use the product properly, and proceeds to take a giant dump all over Billet labs.

Yeah, I’m going to be a little pissed off about that. Not because I care about some whiny bitch on YouTube but because I feel for the poor guys who got dragged through the mud and our potentially going to take a massive hit in their business once they finalize their product.

Scary_le_Poo,
@Scary_le_Poo@beehaw.org avatar

Holy fucking shit 😳

Scary_le_Poo,
@Scary_le_Poo@beehaw.org avatar

Yeah, you clearly have not been following along. Linus has already been caught in multiple outright lies.

His treatment of Billet labs alone is enough reason.

He didn’t fuck up in this instance, it has been continual over a long period and in this case he tripled down.

Use a pihole with unbound so that you become your own DNS. It’s waaaay better and it’s easy as hell to set up. You don’t even need a raspberry pi. It can be set up using in windows using wsl.

If you have an old spare computer that can be left on all the time, you could set it up on that computer and point your router DNS at it so your entire network benefits from it.

The first amendment only protects you from being prosecuted by the government for things you say (and it’s even limited… You can’t yell fire in a crowded theatre for instance).

The first amendment doesn’t apply here, at all.

Scary_le_Poo,

This is a bad faith argument through and through. You should be ashamed of yourself for posting this.

Scary_le_Poo,
@Scary_le_Poo@beehaw.org avatar

Since it’s abundantly clear that you’ve never actually read the 1st amendment, let me help you out:

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

As you can see, employment disputes are not part of the 1st amendment. As you can also see, it restricts establishing a state religion, exercising your religion, protects you from prosecution when peacefully assembling and when you are giving the government the finger.

I suggest reading through the Constitution and it’s amendments. It’s not a long read.

As this commenter (lemmy.ml/comment/2274766) also said, an LTT Screwdriver from lttstore.com it is literally the best screwdriver on the market imo. I am a glazier. I work on glass, frames, screens, doors, security doors, patio doors… You name it, I’m all up in it. This screwdriver has been tortured for about 10 months I think, and it is solid as a rock. Nothing but great things to say about it.

Other things you should have. A good portable tool bag. I highly recommend a veto bag. They are amazing. They are not cheap by any means, but it’s the last one you’ll ever buy.

  • Fastcap measuring tape
  • A small rubber mallet
  • Painters tool
  • Putty knife

These two are very versatile and help in a ton of situations. I have never once used either of them for painting applications or drywall. But they work nicely for that stuff too.

  • A small 9 inch crowbar
  • Needle nose pliers with crimping, stripping, cutting, and paper thin holding accuracy
  • Lineman pliars
  • 6" blade utility knife (DeWalt and Milwaukee ones are really good). You can snap off the sections when you dull the edge and point.
  • Cobalt drill bit set
  • Cobalt countersink set

Cobalt stuff will go through hardened steel

  • Speed square
  • Small level (torpedo levels are a decent idea)
  • Hardened steel chisel set
  • spring punch tool set
  • Metal file set

There is a bunch more I could list off, but yeah, these are good things to have.

You can just get the posidriv bit for it.

I don’t like the shorty torx bit that came with it so I took a regular bit and ground down the end with a bench grinder to make it a shorty bit. Worked well enough

This reeks of a problem with your system, not Firefox.

Are you using an HDD or SDD?

Ctrl+shift+esc

Performance tab

Click on memory

What speed is listed on that tab for your memory? Actually a screenshot of this would be way better.

In the meantime, grab revo uninstaller and uninstall Firefox with it, making sure to nix all found files and registry keys associated with it.

Are you running AV besides windows defender? If you are, uninstall that junk too and reenable windows defender.

Okay next thing to try, go to portableapps.com and get Firefox from there and see how it runs.

Be wary of spiteful Reddit users (kbin.social)

In the past week and a half, I've noticed Reddit behaviors starting to try and poison all of the places that people are taking refuge in to get away from the toxicity, myself included.
