So you use the dremel to cut a groove into your screwdriver instead.

I’ve always hoped somebody would create basically a clone of Reddit, but without the politics and without being overly-policed. Where people aren’t pushed away for respectfully voicing their opinion. Is Lemmy the answer?

If you block sufficient leftist/marxist instances and communities, you might not notice that this is essentially a socialist fanboy wannabe utopia.

I’d suggest to browse Lemmy by new, block a lot, refresh a couple times, and then eventually arrive at a curated, sanitized feed.

But Lemmy is far from unpolitical, merely a different color.

All of those are for the yandex browser, which is a dedicated app.

Ah ok, gotcha. I’ve set my own milestones based on a relative savings rate in such a way that x% monthly savings equate to y years of earlier retirement. Never thought of doing it in terms of multiples of annual income since those include my savings rates, and my actual cost of living are significantly below my income.

How am I supposed to read those savings targets?

Generally I like metrics to see how I compare, but those US-only ones are pretty useless.

Sounds like mail.yandex.com should work for you. It’s the Russian copycat of gmail, basically. But they allow anonymous signup with a “don’t have” option for phone numbers, and they have next to no trackers on the website. That ones they have are easily blocked.

I gave up on the way of kings twice, 400+ pages in and nothing happens. I get that it’s a massive saga that requires a ton of world building etc., but all of his other books are much easier to lean into.

At this point I’m not sure I’ll try again.

Trudi Canavan - Thief’s Magic.

I really enjoy young adult fantasy to take my mind off of work.

Someone should face jail time for this piece of crap that I can’t opt out of.

And OneDrive as well. That piece of shit installed itself as the default save as location, and after removing it from my system, the save as dialogue now hangs for 20 seconds. And the policy to remove OD as a save location doesn’t work whatsoever.

And the bloody “new” tag in the task bar icon is driving me nuts.

Yeah they are shit, but aren’t forced down your throat by the OS.

I hate teams with a passion. As long as you have to work with more than one organization, nothing works whatsoever. You are constantly logged out, have to go through their stupid authenticator app, can’t save a second login (only a private one, not an organization), links open in the wrong org (even if you are logged in), etc. etc.

I’ve reached the point where I use teams exclusively in Edge, alongside with Outlook, because both of their desktop apps are utter crap.

That really was a long time ago in Chinese tech terms. I happen to live there, and it’s astonishing how fast stuff evolves.

Hm, crap. That really sucks to hear, those were my favorites :-/

Right, that does make it a bit more tricky. Is there any serial number or manufacturer?

Yeah sure, so I wouldn’t remove it completely, just move it down.

Right, I guess that makes sense. They usually have quite good movies in their portfolio, whoever is making the decisions, has a good grasp on quality.

In the context of a game, let’s say a clearly outdated graphics engine that everyone can agree on looks very dated. Or game-stopping bugs. Constant crashes. Etc.

If you want to filter youtube links, you need to add youtube.com and youtu.be you the keyword filter. But then every post containing a link will be hidden.

Yeah those things get quite warm. Did you check the data sheet? Also, make sure it’s intended for a continuous runtime.
