    Feel free to downvote and ignore them. Presumably, the people who posted them thought that they were worthy, and I doubt their minds were changed by your non-argument here.

    Nintendo's argument is that their games are art, and being unable to control how they're presented degrades the art. My eyes rolled across the room the first time I heard that.

    The toilet paper thing is fascinating to me, because everybody went to the store, saw the empty shelves, and assumed that their neighbors were freaking out and hoarding toilet paper. People actually needed more TP during lockdown, because they were doing all their pooping at home instead of at work.

    Businesses have a completely different supply chain for toilet paper, and you had a deficit in one and a surplus in the other. You can't just move product from one supply chain to the other, either.

    The mass of people don't use any ad-blocking at all.

  • zarkanian zarkanian 2d ago 100%

    Brave also has its own blockers built in. All of which, I'm told by this article, are still not as good as uBO.

    Whatever. Just use Firefox for your daily driver and only use Chromium when absolutely necessary.

    Or don't. It will become obvious which browser has the better blocker.

    Or just do what I do. Use Firefox and only keep Chromium around for those few sites that work better in Chromium.

    Nooooo, but MV3 is all about security!

    This is how I know this is bullshit. I was reading the article and thinking "So, let me get this straight. The ads aren't the security risk. It's the ad blockers!"

    Sure. Pull the other one.

    You're correct, but your argument is bad. I also paid $0 for Linux.

    You used to. Not anymore. Musk made it so that if you try to view somebody's profile, and you aren't logged in, you don't see anything except for a big box asking you to log in.

    Also, it's not so much about stalking per se, but being able to reshare posts (and thus bully) their targets. The way X is right now, they'd have to have a direct link to the post in question and then screenshot it.

    This calls for air guitar
  • zarkanian zarkanian 5d ago 100%

    Well, I ran in front of a bus and I'm still alive, so running in front of buses can't be that dangerous, hey? Don't be so overcautious!

    Everything in life has risks and you have to weigh the potential risk vs. the potential benefit. Granted, if smoking weed is the most dangerous thing that you do as a child, you'll be very lucky.

    Beyond the point of being a good student, excess intellect at this stage of civilization is more curse than blessing.

    Considering how many people are still ignoring the climate crisis, we need every bit of intelligence we can get. It's the only thing that will determine whether or not we survive as a species.

    You make a good point, but I would much rather have them doing that than drinking. That harms a developing brain and has a bunch of other shitty side effects.

  • I'm studying bash, and I came across [this Stackoverflow thread](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2188199/how-to-use-double-or-single-brackets-parentheses-curly-braces) which contains this bit of code: ``` var="abcde" echo ${var%d*} ``` The output is `abc`, but I can't figure out *why*. I understand that `%d` is used to indicate an integer number and `*` represents anything, but I can't figure out why those together would truncate `var` to only 3 characters.
