Whole home cleansing. They send a guy out quarterly who assesses each room and blows sage around hot spots. My home isn't very active but I sleep better at night knowing that there aren't dark energies in risk corridors.
FWIW you're talking to someone who doesn't even have a credit score. You might see such things as a self-handicap, but I consider it an accomplishment that I'm very proud of.
Privacy Badger has historically allowed tracking until it successfully identifies a domain as a likely tracker. Like the air bags going off after you've already wrapped your car around a telephone pole. But it's now been changed and is now closer to a list-based tracker blocker (enumerate badness):
They've since corrected one of the core issues with PB by doing so, but it still it is very weak. To see why, please glance through The Six Dumbest Ideas in Computer Security.
uBlock Origin in advanced mode, with default-deny rules (only allow assets by exception) is going to be much stronger at blocking crap.
Personally, I use uMatrix with pretty much all asset classes blocked by default. I never see popups. I never see banners begging "please allow our cookies, pleeeeaaase!".
Because I frequently use mpv, yt-dlp or a combination of both, the value I find in Invidious is in being able to conduct video searches against Youtube. And luckily that still works on public instances.
We have noticed almost everything everywhere doubling in price. But that's more to do with the federal reserve devaluing the dollar, which will continue to happen no matter which tribe takes up residence in the white house.
Nazi: When somebody on lemmy says this, they aren't talking about literal jackboot historical underlings of Adolf Hitler, but instead referring to anyone who isn't firmly on the progressive side of the political aisle.
Tankie: I'm still trying to figure this one out. Apparently it's not referring to tank roles in online games. It supposed to be insulting, despite sounding very laudatory.
You and I must live in two different societies then. I work with at least two other individuals who also don't have a cell phone (not just smart phone, but any cellular device), one of whom is also a millennial. My SIP number has never had any issues with online service auth.
If I were stuck in that position, then I would not hesitate to choose the postage method. That being an option does not comport with the assertion "if a person didn’t have a smart phone they literally can’t use it".
I'm surprised to find somebody with some sense around here.
I have never used a block or mute feature on any site or any service in all my life. It is wild to me that people today actually use those features, let alone to constrict the ideas that they allow themselves to be exposed to.
I conducted a fun little experiment over at /c/asklemmy@lemmy.world in which I posited the question: "If it were possible, how would you deprogram an extreme conservative?". I then waited twenty hours before posting "If it were possible, how would you deprogram an extreme progressive?". The difference in reception between the questions exposed the intense lib-left bias that is pervasive on Lemmy, a byproduct of people constantly walling themselves into self-made echochambers.
A millennial not having a cell phone is such an unimaginable concept?
For whatever it's worth, I do use SIP software telephony in order to make calls and receive texts, so in that way I do technically have a "phone". But what I'm fundamentally rejecting here is the notion that I must be compelled to carry around a device in my pocket infested with proprietary malware.
As a percentage, what proportion of pregnancies do those scenarios comprise? What percentage of abortions are carried out simply as a form of birth control?
Routers: anything supported by OpenWRT.
Apparently the ISP modem-routers being supplied these days have virtual assistants embedded (you vill use our spyware and you vill be happy!).
