Zwarte Piet has nothing to do with Christmas, it’s part of Sinterklaas (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Nicholas). While Santa Clause was based off this character, its an entirely different festivity.

Well, hello fellow rebel!

The first thing I always do is turn 120Hz off. The difference just isn’t meaningful enough to justify the extra battery drain. On a PC monitor sure, but on a phone I really don’t care if my feed scrolls a bit smoother.

As a man I distance myself so far from this post I’ve now advanced to the stars and beyond.

I can tell from experience that doesn’t work. Fortunately, because I’d be heartbroken if a little critter like that showed up, knowing I’d have to live on the streets from that point on as I can’t be in the same house as a cat. 😞

After that they’ll just try to get you to switch distributions, because the grass is always greener at Arch.

Ah, good old Santa Claus. Also known as Kabouter Buttplug (Buttplug Gnome) for mysterious reasons.

Ah, sounds like the issue is not DoH in that case, that would be impossible for Reddit to detect if you are using a browser. I suspect a domain gets blocked in one of your proxies, or Reddit returns alternative records to recursors they know are being used for privacy reasons.

Can you enlighten me how that would work, as that makes no sense to me from a technical standpoint?

I fail to see how Reddit would be able to know how you are communicating with a random recursive resolver on the internet. Or are you running your own recursor and trying to use DoH to access their authoritative servers?

Edit: I hope I don’t come across as harsh, it’s meant as a genuine question and not to doubt your story. 🙂

Don’t know who he is supposed to be, but if you think your balls are big enough that you feel the need to use them as your online handle: please get the boys checked for testicular cancer.

The solution is obviously that the bikers are to join the daily traffic jam in a car, instead of entirely skipping the queue like selfish bastards.

/s, for the satire-impaired.

My rats were pretty intelligent and they didn’t shit where they ate or slept. And they weren’t in the Epstein files. So this comparison doesn’t fly at all.

A singer in our country had the agreement that he would only sing on an event for Jewish kids if there were no political statements being made during his performance. So of course the first thing he noticed was a stand handing out pro-Zionist pamphlets.

He got on stage, explained that that agreement was violated, therefore couldn’t perform and as a result got called anti-Semetic by one of our political leaders. Which resulted in the artist having to go into hiding, as he now started receiving death threats. The, in my opinion, gigantic piece of trash that called him out insists she did nothing wrong. Because taking responsibility for your actions and words is only something others need to do of course.

So… Insisting agreements with Jewish organisations are followed: you fucking anti-Semite.

But, but… Botanically speaking neither strawberries nor raspberries are actual berries. Fun fact: grapes are, so that makes any regular wine a berry wine.

Musk maintains that camera-only technology is the most “human” way to approach self-driving, since people use their eyes to navigate the road.

A few years ago I was driving on the motorway, came up on a bend in the road and was greeted by a dense freak fog bank out of nowhere. I immediately let go of the accelerator to reduce speed, at the same time my dashboard lit up like a Christmas tree and a collision alert started blaring. That gave me enough time to apply the brakes and prevent a collision with the first and only traffic jam I’ve ever seen there.

I see no reason to not augment our own capabilities with radar and lidar, to see what we as humans can’t.

Your culture will adapt to service us. Resistance is futile.

Well, there goes my appetite, this Dutch guy hates herring. Can’t stand the smell, taste or texture. 🤢

And don’t forget the US will again get to decide to arbitrarily discard any nuclear agreements, which is of course another great incentive for Iran to not start a military nuclear program.

Lemmy is the only social media platform where I have an account. No Facebook, no Reddit, no LinkedIn, etc. From time to time I do read a post on Reddit, when it comes up in search results. When you have an obscure gaming or Linux issue, Reddit can (unfortunately) still be a treasure trove.
