Annoying marketing practices in c/mildlyinfuriating

[–] 3laws 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Didn't know that. Can you tell me who is supposed to enforce this and where is the law from?

When you accept the ToS I always understood that I was signing in for emails, just like (in my experience) 100% of other services/sites like Spotify, Proton, Bandcamp, eBay, Facebook, X, GitHub... well I'm not gonna list every single one but you get me.

Still, thank you for educating me.

Just curious. Also, anyone playing BR or esports TPS?

Is lemmy being gatekept by animal ag shills? in c/lemmyshitpost

No. You're delusional to think that "eventually" is ever going to become reality. Not tomorrow, not in your whole lifetime.

You're not hard to ignore--actually, you're pretty easy to ignore at proven by both groups of moderators.

Windows 11 Start menu ads are now rolling out to everyone in c/technology

Understanding Linux kernel is medium hard, but not frustrating. Using a DE is NOT frustrating if you understand what's up with their core ideals. D-Bus, HOOKS, env variables... meh I can give you that. But 95% of users live in the web and/or office apps. And for that literally any flavor of Linux will do. My in laws would never in their lifetimes be able to distinguish Arch + KDE + SDDM + themes from Windows. I can bet my right testicle.

No way Jose. If anything their approach is inspired by Fedora Atomic, which is the cornerstone of Bazzite.

Other than that, yes, a very very solid approach for daily usage for casual gamers.

We all were new at everything at one point. Don't be discouraged when trying new things. in c/cat

Everyone was a newbie at one point, even people with natural affinity and extraordinary talent. It never pays off to gatekeep your community, it will die and so will the interest of it. Be welcoming. A great teacher can explain really complex stuff in really simple terms. Stay kind.

whose sole purpose is violence.

Let's get real. Its whole purpose is death, nothing lesser nothing else. Sure, you maybe able to stop immediate danger and call it a day with good aim and perfect situation awareness but no gun owner has one to tickle and softly kiss people.

What causes that saliva smell that you get in your mouth after breathing a lot in freezing weather? in c/nostupidquestions

[–] 3laws 7 points 4 months ago

There's no way you're breathing enough ozone anywhere on walkable Earth for you to taste it. However trapped CO2 form the surrounding air in water particles flowing in the air may explain this, the taste is bitter, slightly sharp.

I had the previous supported version and then it just stopped working. YouTube is not blocked in my network at all. I patched the latest supportid version and it keep showing this error after hanging for about 20 seconds.

What could cause this?

DNS hijacking (self.selfhosted)

EDIT: So because of my $0 budget and the fact that my uptime is around 50% (PC, no additional servers) I ended up using NextDNS. For the time being it works (according to dnsleaktest), an added benefit was improved ad-blocking (100% in this tool). I now have plans for a proper router in the future with a Pi-hole. Thanks so much for all the info & suggestions, definitely learnt a lot.

So it turns out I got myself into an ISP that was shittier than expected (I already knew it was kinda shitty), they DNS hijack for whatever reason and I can't manually set my own DNS on my router or even my devices.

Cyber security has never been my forte but I'm always trying to keep learning as I go. I've read that common solutions involve using a different port (54) or getting a different modem/router or just adding a router.

Are they all true? Whats the cheapest, easiest way of dealing with all of this?

Mexicans forgot. (self.nahuatl)

submitted 1 year ago by 3laws to c/nahuatl

I find it pretty interesting that my fellow compatriots up north forget that this language is spoken by at least 1.5mil people.

I've seen far more interest from non native anglo north americans in Nahuatl that people that live in México and speak exclusively Spanish.

So yeah, are we allowed to have Spanish conversations here, is the community English exclusive?
