I think the only one you can’t use it in is chrome mobile since it doesn’t support extensions

Just install the Consent-o-matic extension and you get the benefit of rejecting without the faff 90% of the time

Oh FFS, the rest of my life is doomed to be spent updating software

I gotta wonder, given the power bill of these sites, why they’re letting so much heat energy out into the atmosphere

Surely at least some of that heat could be tuned back into electricity. Yeah it’s not gonna pay all the bills, but surely at a certain level of scale, there’s gotta be some benefit in it just from an economical standpoint, let alone the ecological benefits of not accelerating climate change

We’re only talking about it because we’re very likely to get a new Labour leader and prime minister soon, so the candidates are either trying to/being forced to say something about it because our media has a fucking pathology for boosting talking points such as Brexit that might allow them to put Farage on the screen too.

You know what, if I was one of the 10 people on earth who are in the market for that Piano, it’s a bit of a steal…!

I’m hoping I’m wrong, but that definitely looks like an exterior wall

I’m generally about to put both on anyway, just putting the sock on is half a job

Oh nice! I’ll be trying some of these out on my MiSTer later

Thanks for sharing

I used to work in GAME a couple of decades ago in the UK. Did the Halo 3, WiiFit and one of the assassin’s creed midnight launches, all crowds were great vibes.

I’d never do it myself, but it looked like good fun for those involved

Oh, I feel like I’ve gotta let you know the (post 2003/7?) Microsoft formats are technically “open” in that the spec is available for anyone to implement, license free

They saw ODF coming and made sure to kneecap any advantage

#3 is an incredibly recent development. You don’t need to go back even half a decade before everyone was happily gargling Microsoft

Microsoft had an almost total stranglehold on Office productivity software for about 3 decades, only their formats really mattered. I think they still have over 3/4 of business & enterprise market share.

Google’s productivity suite is probably in 2nd place in terms of usage today (much more popular than office outside of business) which I believe doesn’t have an external file format, followed by either LibreOffice (via OpenOffice, the originator of ODF) or maybe even the Apple suite.

Essentially the support isn’t super ubiquitous because, especially until recently, the percentage of documents created in that format is quite small compared to the Microsoft formats

HDHomerun is the commercial solution that is relatively painless assuming you have something that can run a client that supports it

Open source, you probably want to look at tvheadend and a USB DVB-T tuner (hauppauge still make decent ones I believe) attached as the next most straightforward option, it can take a little bit to get set up but it’s pretty seamless once it is. Same caveat about clients

Do we reckon this is the regular wonk or a new one

Frankly, pretty cheap for a coffin, I believe

I wonder if it’s second hand

TBF that’s kinda what I meant by poverty and slums, that’s not the outcome of a demographic that has any semblance of power in their political/economic system.

It comes down to ownership as it always has. If the thing taking all the jobs is owned by a handful of people, it will only benefit them ultimately. If it’s owned by the many, the outcome for the many is improved.

Americans need to quickly get over a lot of brainwashing for us to stand a chance of the good end though

I don’t think that’s a requirement

It may be that you’re under-extracting it, a finer grind size would be the next thing to try.

Another thing to highlight is that lighter roasts have more acidity, so it may also be the beans you’ve got

I mean yes, but also no

The job apocalypse is absolutely not something to forget.

It’s a much greater threat given it will require us to change the world economic system to one that doesn’t require everyone to have a job to survive. The alternative? Everyone in slums and poverty.

The media will be desperate to point you to anything other than that because it’s an existential threat to their owners.

A little surprising to see this from the Guardian given they have a different ownership model to most outlets, but I guess it’s a good reminder that all media will defend money if push comes to shove

We’re two years from a decade since “don’t be evil” was last on the cards

We do everyone a disservice if we pretend they didn’t do that
