    "Today I .ml-ed"

  • For me, it was instant the moment I saw the thumbnail. Too much Trek-watching?

  • The new version of "swatting": "Magatting". Just tell ICE/Secret Service etc someone you don't like said something mean about Trump.

  • And additionally:

    Yesterday, singer Alicia Keys deleted an Instagram post which said she was thinking of taking up paragliding after asking her followers: ‘What would u do if you weren’t afraid of anything?’

    Advocacy group posted a screenshot of the post on Twitter, and questioned whether it was ‘some sick ode’ to Hamas attackers.

    smh

  • I think there was just a post on Lemmy (maybe !SelfHosted) saying that Plex have just changed their terms to allow them to sell users' data to third parties.

  • IIRC, Firedragon is Floorp with the best of Librewolf.

    I was using it until a couple of months ago, when an update not only wiped all my open pages but also all the workspaces I'd created.

  • Over the last two and half years (since I quit Windows and Vivaldi and went FLOSS only), bouncing around between Firefox, Floorp, Zen, Firedragon and Falkon as my principal browser, while also checking out Pale Moon, Servo, Dillo, Netsurf, Agregore, Kristall. Also "special purpose browsers" like Station, Ferdium and FreeTube. (Is FreeTube a browser? I think it's an Electron app, which is basically a Blink/Chromium browser, used to browse just one website in this case.)

    Currently on my laptop:

    • Fully-loaded Zen (multiple extensions and a couple of Zen mods) as my main browser
    • Fairly minimal Firefox (just uBlock Origin and Privacy Badger) for streaming music (e.g Spotify without ads)
    • Ferdium for email and IM
    • FreeTube for YouTube (LibRedirect extension in Zen sends YT links to FreeTube automatically)
    • Ungoogled Chromium as a backup in case some site just won't work with a non-Blink browser. Haven't used it in months.
  • Are you telling me it's not a dumb waiter, it's a Jefferies tube?

  • or "If Star Trek was a 90s grunge band..."

    Cue Bev singing:I went to schoolin Olympiaahahaahaa

  • Which is the one that comes with the hidden Cardassian virus?

  • Uhura is an African word meaning "Denobulan's too hard to configure".

  • You made it happen!!! Many thanks!

  • No, it counts as date night.

  • Yeah, I rewound and freeze framed and thought "Damn, that really is Stack doing it himself, not a stuntman!"

    (Of course, no move can be as sweet as the Shatner barrel roll or the two-handed punch.)

  • Now if someone with the photoshop skills could take this scene and replace Robert Stack with Avery Brooks, and the Jehovah's Witness with Kai Wynn. (And the various other woo peddlars from Trek.)

  • Just me still dealing with the trauma of my time among Scots who always corrected (with MAXIMUM outrage) anyone who spelt or pronounced any Scottish name in an Anglicized way.

    Best way to get my mind off it is to go hunting for haggis.
