You’re the asshole for expecting an open source project to have to spend all their time supporting every possible niche browser/configuration, rather than spending time building their actual product that people want to use.

Nothing to see here, just another “token based LLMs can’t count letters in words” post

Shouldn’t it be -1, not 0?

For those that do need to use Chrome for whatever reason, don’t bother with all this faff just use uBOL, it’s just as good as uBO

I have to use Chrome for work and this whole thing is such a non issue, I switched to uBO Lite and have noticed zero difference.

There are plenty of reasons not to use Chrome but having to use uBOL instead of uBO isn’t one of them

I think it’s different in the EU

Only half of Liberians speak English, and less than 2% are native speakers. Calling it an English speaking country is a stretch

Wow what a read! TIL. Thank you for this

Yeah they used slavery instead

The only prime factor that 240 has which 10 doesn’t is 3, so using 240 only really helps for multiples of 3

donating online

Yeah i suppose any form of payment that you have to keep secret for some reason is a reason to use crypto, though I struggle to imagine needing that if you’re not doing something dodgy

avoiding scams for p2p transactions

Wat. Crypto is not good at solving that, it’s in fact much much worse than traditional payment methods. There’s a reason scammers always want to be paid in crypto

boycotting the banking system

What specifically are you boycotting? The money that backs your crypto (i.e. that you bought it with) still sits in a bank account somewhere and continues to support the banks. All you’re boycotting then are payments, but those are usually free for consumers (many banks lose money on them) so you’re not exactly “sticking it to the man” by not using them. Evem if you were somehow hurting banks by using crypto, if you think the people that benefit from you using crypto (crypto exchange owners and billionaires that own crypto etc.) are less evil than goverment regulated banks, you’re deluded.

What about avoiding international payment fees?

You’ll spend more money using crypto for that, not less

Yes, doing illegal things secretly is a valid use case for crypto. So far, it’s also the only one

Is this The Rehearsal?

I have zero sympathy for people who don’t use an ad blocker

My all time favourite is Peter F Hamilton’s Commonwealth Saga + Void Trilogy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commonwealth_Saga

Currently enjoying Brandon Sanderson’s various Cosmere books a ton too, although book 5 of stormlight is a bit disappointing it’s still an excellent series

I love the fact that they just gloss over the fact that all the sodium will FUCKING EXPLODE if you even get so much as a crack in one of your fuel containers or the battery or any kind of leak in the connections etc. Definitely not keen to be on an airplane with that on board!

Decentralised currencies are fundamentally too expensive to operate, while providing dangerously little safety and a far worse user experience than fiat.

The scam part is the idea that any crypto coin is an asset with inherent value, when in fact the price is created entirely by new investment, in other words it’s just a ponzi scheme

Better not mention that you don’t use Firefox

Thanks for clarifying. In my case that’s basically zero gain then cos all my devices have ad block in their browsers and I generally either use apps that have no ads or use revanced to remove them

Oh no! Anyway…
