Asides from the kinda-shady crypto stuff and the other things that’ve already been mentioned, just philosophically it should be kinda evident that over-concentration on one corporate controlled rendering engine isn’t a good thing. Google wants the internet to be a walled garden with themselves as the sole decision makers so they can stuff ads down your throat.
Gecko’s web compat is bad largely because of this over-concentration.
That is the default behaviour, but it’s pretty trivial to change. Also, I’d imagine the distro maintainer could choose to change the default settings as part of a post-install script, if they wanted to.
Edit: Not sure why you’re being downvoted, as I do think it’s a valid concern.
While FF’s evil quotient has been on the rise, Brave definitely isn’t a better option. If anything, librewolf is the way to go.
Could also be explained be recency bias.
I just occasionally go back to shill for Lemmy. Pretty sure that hurts them more than helps. :D
Let me think of a good name for it. Let’s see, it hangs and holds a banana. How about we call it the “banana hammock”?
Maybe you and your sister should RTFM together.
Could someone perhaps explain the major use cases or give a real life example of a time you’ve needed to use awk? I’ve been using Linux casually for quite a long time now, and although I learned the basics of the tool, I can’t recall having ever felt I had a need for it. If I want to glue a bunch of cli stuff together and need to do some text processing, it generally seems like it’d be easier to just use a simple python script.
Is it more for situations that need to be compatible with most *nix systems and you might not necessarily have access to a higher level scripting language?
OK, you asked for it. I’m binding super+P to open pornhub in a private window.
While I pretty much agree, I can definitely think of a few sporadic times doing sysadmin where things have gone so significantly wrong that an enforced sanity-check on every sudo command would have been appreciated.
Oh well, guess I’m eating pasta this month. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
“Frites” is a portmanteau of the words “French” and “frites”, so it’s still just “frites”.
Incidentally, when translating the word “frites” to English, you can’t be certain of how many instances of the word “French” you need to add, and the only way to be certain is to ask the original author. This has led to many difficulties in translating posthumous works.
though we would need a lot of community work for parity with Discord
Not sure if it was FUD or not, so please treat this as an unsubstantiated rumour, but I recall another lemming telling me that Matrix was quite insular and not very accepting of outside code contributions.
So if that’s true, it could be a spanner in the gears.
My guess is that there are multiple tables on one sheet, and this is the summation of the sub-totals.
The problem is that performant screenshare (to multiple users) more or less requires infrastructure. That requires money, and it’s impossible to compete on price with services that have the VC-enshitification model.
You can get around this in a few ways, but they’re all tradeoffs that are in some way or other worse than discord.
Eleven and twelve kinda are as well. They literally mean “one left” (ain-lif) and “two left” (twa-lif) with the “over ten” being implied.
Edit: Oh, OP basically already said the same thing.
I think it really depends on the website and even where you are on the website. For example, if you’re on YT, the watch?v=<b64_id> is probably not something you want to throw away. If you’re on a news site like imaginarynews.com/.../the-article-title/?tracking-garbage=<...> then you probably do. It’s just a matter of having “sane” defaults that work as most people would expect.
That’d be cool. Whenever I’m sharing a YT link, I’m always a bit suspicious of what info the youtu.be URL is hiding, so I paste it into a browser to get a clean URL.
Maybe this is silly, but I’d be cool to do that automatically.
That’s not the only point though. IIRC, they also remove telemetry, and pocket as well as some other things. I personally turn back on persistent sessions and history, but leave all the other privacy features there.
