more than half the households in my county do not have any high-speed wireline service available to them.

i can’t. unless i’m really, really tired. i prefer blankets… as in plural… with some bulk and weight to them.
rules for thee, but not for me (or those who give me money)
We are living in the state of Fuck it.
pretty much sums it all up right there.
‘work’ just replaced ‘school’. same restrictions usually apply, just with the “i’m an adult” modifier that lets you deviate with some degree of risk to your paycheck.
so, you’re logged in, have a purchase history that includes clothing, and azn is trying to make a sizing recommendation?
and you could change him into something else. links the cat was mine.
real-life clickwrap.
‘kindly recite the full text of the terms of service before i choose whether push the button or punch your face’
captive portal detection, certificate status verification, and iirc server settings updates. yes. none of them are ‘absolutely required’ but they do exist to improve the reliability and secure operation of the program–and none are secret nasty spying telemetry. just turn those particular settings off as desired.
i nuked my post history and haven’t logged-in to ‘that site’ in about two years. there is one sub i lurk in occasionally that hasn’t gained any traction on the lemmy equivalent. that’s it other than the (relatively infrequent) pointer to a post from a web search for which no other alternative was listed.
the only way that fucking idiot should get one is if he jumped into a wood chipper and amid the global celebration, a sustainable peace broke out.
there is mv3 version of ubo here:
https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBOL-home
dunno how well it works on yt, though. i use dlp on a pc for the time or two a month i ‘need to’ look at a yt vid.
adguard’s free browser extension is also mv3 compliant (for chrome). i think the old adblockplus (disable ‘acceptable ads’ and ignore offer to ‘upgrade’ to a paid version) is, too.
i’m sure we’re on ‘lists’ somewhere, they just haven’t gotten to our numbers yet.
they’re just doing their job. protecting the interests of big business and the wealthy.
the u.s. is ‘young’, relative to the world stage, this is true; but its constitution is among the oldest in the world… and it is starting to show its age.
ok, then…
i have a huge trade deficit with walmart.
i buy way more from them than they do from me ($1200-1500 a year vs $0); just like the u.s. buys more from many countries than those countries buy from the u.s.
like the leaky diaper’s new tariffsimport tax, i should charge myself a ridiculously high extra tax on purchases from walmart until they buy $1200-1500 a year of some mythical product from me to even out the ‘unfair’ imbalance?
yea. that’ll work.
imagine where battery tech would be if we never started burning bones for power.
“%userprofile%\Saved Games” exists, but most games that i’ve seen don’t use it by default, or even can’t use it due to its own shortcomings.
i haven’t had mine for over a decade, but tivo completely ruined ordinary ‘tv’ for me. it finished the job the vcr started back in the 80s, aided by greedy networks greatly increasing ad time per hour over the last few decades (10 min per hour was the norm when i was a kid–now it’s 20+)
