To me this sounds like either your GPU acceleration is off or is choking somehow. I’d start with checking your GPU acceleration settings and updating your drivers if they aren’t the latest. If that doesn’t work, maybe try FF with a fresh config to see if it’s a setting you’ve enabled?

I saw the Marques Brownlee review of this and I have no idea why they actually released it to market? It looked so wildly undercooked.

Let's do it slightly differently, let's make the mandatory retirement age for political office the median life expectancy age for the entire country. If the politicians, etc can manage to make everyone live longer, they can hold office longer.

Similarly, take away their separate and different medical coverage and put them on the same Medicare system everyone else in the country has to use.

Huh. I used it pretty much since the start and I certainly don't recall it being that bad? Like you got a lot of relevant content up front usually.

All we want is 1990s Google, guys. That's really all we want. None of this AI BS that kind find a country in Africa that starts with a K, just Google without the evil enshitification layer on top.

This is the stupidest thing they could possibly do. How in the hell would Trump be any better on that one specific issue?

Meanwhile, on every other issue he's going to be a demented (literally) nightmare tearing down the foundations of democracy in any way he can so he can keep power this time.

EDIT: Meanwhile…

But was it an escaped boomslang snake?

Browsers love it!

Practically anything you write will execute without all that scope and well formed statements nonsense.

Mind you, number 2 is also its biggest flaw as well, but…

True, just observing that it's happening much faster now than it did for the preceding iteration of Windows.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 2 months ago (2 children)

The enshitification of Windows compared to macOS has really accelerated a lot recently it seems. I work with both daily and it is weird and irritating how much extra crap keeps getting hurled willy-nilly into Windows updates this last year.

That’s how you know the privacy protections are working. Meta won’t let you in if they can’t identify you well enough to sell your data.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

So obviously not to everyone's taste but if you have access to iCloud+ email, your mail isn’t scanned for sale (as per their US privacy agreement anyway), you get randomized email addresses available to give to places that you think might be spammy and you can link a domain to your account, although you’re only allowed 3 email boxes per user in your family per domain. Works well for me so far. Mind you because of photo storage size and devices backups I’m up to $3/ month from the original $1/month when I started.

Plus with Advanced Data Protection a lot of iCloud info is E2E encrypted. (Not email tho.)

 

(And in Space Black even!)

 

Just saw the map from earlier tonight and it's pretty crazy! I know we got gusts up to 75mph midtown and I watch my palm trees thrashing like they might come down once or twice, but didn't realize until now just how hard it hit the rest of town.

Sadly, it blew through super fast, like a real monsoon so only about 5-10 minutes of rain in midtown. But I am hopeful for it to repeat again tomorrow!

🤞😬🤞

 

Also, my new protip for showering post-exercise is to either just use the "cold" side or if your shower can't do that and you have a tankless hot water heater, just turn it off while showering.

Tap water is like 85 now and about as warm as you really want if you were just outside sweating.

 

Hi everyone,

So I have created a "sublemmy" add-on for lemmy.ml that lets you quickly jump to a community from the address bar in FireFox. Just type 'c firefox', for example, and it will go there and sort the community by new. Useful if you have a few communities you want to check regularly and quickly from any new browser window.

The one caveat is that this tool only works for the website lemmy.ml because that is the site hardwired into the search string, alas. Not sure if there is a way around that (that would maybe take 2 arguments instead of one?) but that's where it's at for now.

Link is included if anyone wants to use it!

 

(Someone's gotta post some sunset photos in here, lol…)

 

So far, the closest I've come across is this grease monkey script that makes Lemmy look a lot more like old Reddit did, but I'd love to find something that added hot keys like RES has.

Taken at the Desert Botanical Gardens parking lot in April. The heat that day was stifling yet so was the beauty of my surroundings!

Fun factoid: These trees have chlorophyll rich bark that perform photosynthesis.

Just wanted the community to be here in case Reddit refugees from Tucson come looking for it.
