I have no sympathy for GAFAM, but Mozilla sucks even more and you can't convince me otherwise.

    Sometime I feel that research is just a bunch of guys trying to sell useless stuff (myself included).

  • I'd buy that for a dollar!

  • TBH, the opening scene (the one in which Murphy is almost killed) is much worse for me. Not only because of the violence/gore, but because it's extremely sadistic, with villains laughing while shooting at him. My 12 y/o watched that scene at the cinema and yes, it traumatized me.

  • About fucking time. I'm just sick of the "news" about X. Hopefully it disappears for good.

  • Adguard's ad-block filters repo had been blocked "due to a violation of GitHub's terms of service" (now reinstated)

  • I mean, they don't tell you which part of ToS you violated because you may come up with some way to circumvent it.

  • They do this on purpose, to avoid workarounds.

  • I have a couple of no-brand SATA-USB enclosers with some jmicron chipset. Can't remember the exact chipset right now, as my RPi is not working ATM (see edit).

  • sudo smartctl -a /dev/sdX should do the job

  • Yeah, I use something like this, a no-brand enclosure.

  • I'm using a couple of cheap Kingston A400 for my setup (120 and 480 GB) and they work just fine. One thing I noticed is that the 120 GB one's health went down to 92%, from 100%, in "just" one year (smart parameter). But that's implies a lifetime of more that 12 years, so I'm not excessively concerned.

    EDIT: of course, just after writing this comment the smaller SSD began to behave strangely (errors in dmesg).

  • Cool. Just block me and get rid of my not so good posts.

  • "Firefox is a browser, not an ad measurement tool. What would they sneakily introduce an OPT-OUT ad efficacy measurement tool"?

    People would really do anything to justify Mozilla's bullshit.

    Thanks, I respect you too.

    I'ts been 3 years since I last used uBO and I have still to see a single ad on my browser. But you do you.

  • Everybody knows that Chrome, the only browser made by Google, has a built-in adblocker. /s

    Being called names just for stating the obvious. Typical lemmy.

    It's not my fault if Mozilla won't bother implementing a decent adblocker and have to rely on an external unpaid developer to keep FF afloat.
