Actually, this problem is why I stopped using Jerboa. It’s really weird. Of course, like an asshole, I never bothered to ask about it ornfile a bug report, because I’m a bad person.

I use Eternity now, and I like it a lot.

Good.

Did they go looking doe the most smug, I’m-an-asshole expression possible for that guy, or does he just look like that?

This seems awesome and all, but I can’t install any of the add-on on my Firefox Beta. The add-on site says I need a newer version of Firefox.

Err… no?

As far as I can tell, “hyperpolic” is a typo, and you meant “hyperbolic”, which kinda fits, but it would be “contains a hyperbolic statement,” rather than “contains hyperbole.” It would be less clear, though, since “hyperbolic” can refer to either “hyperbole” or “hyperbola”.

Meanwhile hyperbole refers only to a figure of speech and not potentially an open curve with two branches.

Sorry, did I ruin your joke? I ruined your joke didn’t I. Man, I just can’t stop myself from being a pedantic jackass…

Here’s the thing, YouTube. When you first started running ads, I didn’t really mind. They were short, there weren’t that many, and if they were particularly annoying or repetitive, there was a skip button. I respected that you needed to make money and that you wanted to pay the content creators, and you respected my time.

But then you decided to flood the fucking platform and cut the revenue share with the creators. Without adblock, I can’t watch a 5 minute video without 5 minutes of ads. You’re trying to force me into paying for your premium service by annoying me to death.

Which I might do if I thought the people whose videos I actually like got a decent share of the revenue. But they don’t. Hell, at least one of my favorite YouTubers is regularly demonetized, so they wouldn’t see a penny.

So, YouTube, I’ll keep blocking ads and use services like Patreon to support my favorite YouTube folks the best I can. And if you won’t let me use adblock? Well, I guess I have to find some other way to occupy that hour or so a week I use your service, because I’m sure as shit not using half of it to watch ads that don’t benefit the people whose videos I enjoy.

ETA: this post contains hyperbole (https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/hyperbole ).

As a recovering Abrams driver, this makes me giggle a little.

Good. Put him away for assault. Sentence him on live TV. Throw a fucking party as you throw the book at him.

Make. An. Example. Out. Of. This. Douchenozzle.

No shit? Really? Wow, thanks guys! I never would have guessed that were it not for the hard working folks at the Pentagon!

😐

$14 isn’t bad for a complete game free of microtransactions, especially one with as much content as FFT.

If that’s too much, but you don’t like free to play economy stuff like gacha (I agree with this, BTW), then I suggest emulation. You can get ppsspp and Joan of Arc or Ogre Battle, for instance. Both are great games, full of the tactical goodness you’re looking for.

What the hell? Look, man, I hate the guy but he’s remarkably consistent: he works for his interests. Even when he does dumbshit things like buy Twitter, the thinks he’s operating in his interests.

He’s not complicated. He’s a self absorbed piece of shit. That’s really all you ever need to know about the fucker.

I feel like the 2020s will be remembered as the Decade of Enshitification.

I think it’s supposed to imply none of your business…

I will cheerfully shit on Amazon every day, which is why shit articles like this piss me off. Amazon does plenty of real harm, but articles like this give this make people think “well, if this is their workplace mistreatment, then it’s not that bad.”

It is that bad, but this isn’t an example of that. This could happen anywhere, to anyone, even the most ethical company/co-op/whatever on the planet. They handled it well. So let’s go after them for actual shit instead.

Well, he’s not a representative of any state, so technically assassination wouldn’t be an act of war…

I’m not advocating, just pointing out that as an individual, his position is a bit more precarious than I think he realizes.

He’s working on concrete steps?

…

Any chance some one could shove him down them?

Here’s how to turn that off:

1. Uninstall Google Chrome
2. Install Firefox, Ungoogled Chromium, or, heck, Vivaldi
3. Stop trusting Google

There we go, problem solved.

If a US Republican is praising your policy, it’s a bad policy. If they call it (🤢🤮) Reganesque, then it’s a disastrous one.

I mean, good call, Canada.

Yes. That’s exactly what his definition means.

I can kinda appreciate what he’s trying to say, but I think “default” might be a better word than “native”, but I’m not an expert.
