Linux doesnt install things like windows does. A tar file is just an archive. What you did is basically the equivalent of copying a program’s Program Files. Itll still work if you just run the exe from the folder, but there’s no registry entry, no start menu shortcut, no desktop shortcut until its created by you or the installer on Windows.

I find its much more annoying trying to whitelist specific sites or scripts with ublock than with noscript, but thats just a preference thing.

I agree with you wholeheartedly, except in this instance:

For really annoying pages i have to allow two or three other domains, and theres an element of guesswork unvolved in figuring out which scripts are relevant to the page loading or not. Thats only on the first time you visit that site. But on the sites where you want it most, id vastly prefer refreshing 2 or max 3 times allowing gradually additional scripts each time, than just letting them call whatever the fuck they want from whatever domain. Every time that happens i end up allowing 2 or 3 urls, and sometimes there’s about 40 that i dont recognize or actively don’t want.

How are people on lemmy but also not using ublock origin and noscript?

"You already have your VPN installed

You’re using firefox with ublock origin and noscript

You load a page, it just works or its blank

If its blank, you whitelist only the top level domain on noscript

You read the page content with no ads, no popups, no referrers, trackers or unnecessary javascript bullshit."

Hess village in hamilton? Thats your problem, its the people who go to hess, not drag queens specifically that are the issue.

Lmao we posted basically the same thing at the same time. Im gonna leave it even though you beat me because i hadnt seen yours

Its just ‘pedo’

The capitalization is weird and annoying but the ‘grammer’ seems fine?

I cant speak to those, i buy my own unflavored vape juice in bulk, but if theyre made in china id still be very wary of heavy metal contamination.

Its literally only the shitty disposable ones from china that are owned by the tobacco companies. A good quality vape with real nicotine juice is made with propylene glycol, the ingredient in asthma inhalers, and nicotine. Its literally just a nicotine delivery system. The only unhealthy thing about these disposable ones is the fact that theyre contaminated.

I mean lots of holidays are on the same day each year though, like good friday or easter sunday or Thanksgiving so i think thats kinda excusible.

I dont mean airflow as in rate of air moving through the fan, i mean it as in volume of air being filtered.

Pretty sure its about creating negative suction below the fan. Instead of just pulling air from the intake side of the fan, its pulling it from all 4 directions. Theoretically the air flow going through the filter would be at least 4x but probably more in practice.

I mean sure but just like with movies, the rights dont change hands very often, even if they’re not being actively used or the rights holder goes out of business. This means a ton of promising franchises either suffer by getting terrible sequels or no sequels at all.

Ive had multiple situations on websites or in games where i accidentally switched the language to like- japanese or something and then had to fumble around trying to switch it back. On websites at least you can translate to find the right option but i recently installed a game on my steamdeck and the input was all screwed up, and while trying to fix it i accidentally switched the language and then navigated away from the menu. Trying to get back to the right setting with broken input and not understanding anything wasnt fun.

I mean i could see this actually being a good stunt to raise awareness about it. Like use something fake and safe like a time release tablet that makes the drink fizz up suddenly 30 seconds later, or causes the whole thing to turn colour rapidly or something. But i doubt thats whats happening. Might make for a funny party theme with a close group of friends who are all in on it and targeting each other though.

I mean they could also just download a million torrents and record the ips of anyone who connects to them to leech, which is what they already do. This is why you use a VPN while torrenting, because you never know who you’re connecting to.

Right but you need a birth certificate to get a US passport dont you?
