ISPs already do that here in the states. The court case is to decide whether they should shut off access.

Olive oil is pretty much the only oil everyone in my house can have. We’ve done butter and ghee but it’s not the right flavor for most things.

Sesame is too expensive. I hate the taste of avocado oil.

Vegetable oil is straight up soy which I’m allergic to.

Basically it’s olive oil or butter for me.

I fucking hate this timeline.

Unless you really need that version, you’ll want to install 26 when it comes out next April (upgrade should be very seamless).

Don’t get too hung up on it. It was an fyi not a “stop what you’re doing you newb!”

We need people to test the latest, bleeding edge. So you’re helping with that! But since you’re new to Linux I wanted to make sure you knew what you were getting yourself into.

It’s not that odd numbers are less stable. It’s more that they aren’t supported for long term. Many of the lessons learned are pushed to the next version though so either way you’re doing good.

I’m not a PC gamer so for me stamina and longevity matter more to me than bleeding edge technology.

Just in case you didn’t know, odd numbered Ubuntu versions (in your case 25) are considered short term releases and won’t be maintained beyond a year or two.

Even numbered versions are supported long term, often for several years.

I don’t think Lemmy would count as social media but that said, you can easily create a dummy account that just, for example, posts pictures of moths or beans or bread or whatever.

It’s almost like old school Google front page.

Honestly this is the best suggestion especially if you can mount your windows partition read only. You get the benefits of Linux while still having access to your files.

For most folks, the biggest hurdle is getting compatible apps. Once you find the apps you need, moving over is just a backup and restore away.

DNSSEC always causes errors on my pihole set up and end up disabling it. The upstream is DoH though (via dnscrypt) so it’s technically DNSSEC but without the clients seeing the authentication. That’s enough for me.

At some point, I fully expect apps and websites to begin resolving DNS directly instead of relying on the OS to provide resolution services. At that point our options will be to wholesale block IP addresses at the router.

There is a point of diminishing returns. Like most things, you have to evaluate what you are willing to live with and let go.

I know someone who only browses incognito because they don’t want cookies tracking them. They log into everything every day. Which, imo, is worse because those cookies are still tracking you but you now have to log in everyday.

But for them they like the control.

I’ve moved most of my incidental link on my phone clicking to Firefox Focus (thanks to URL Checker) which has upped my privacy. I wouldn’t have made that change without the prompt that URL Checker provides though.

I use a VPN outside of my house and I use pihole at home. I am tempted to switch my DNS to unbound but the juice doesn’t seem to be worth the squeeze. We’ll see the next time I need to rebuild my pi.

I agree. This thread is for actual advice. rm -rf / belongs in a joke thread.

There are two "Firefox"s:

1. Firefox, the code base.
2. Firefox, the compiled binary of that code base.

The codebase remains open source under the MPL while the binary explicitly, by Mozilla’s own admission, is not. They are source available.

From the very brief skim I did of your post, it looks like we’re on the same page. I had a few people who don’t understand open source licenses come at me in my Lemmy replies when this was first unfolding. Ultimately it’s on them to understand their agreements.

A gentle reminder that the Firefox Binary is no longer open source. It is source-available. You license the binary under their own proprietary Terms of Use, which explicitly grants Mozilla to use your data in a manner they seem fit to “operate Firefox”.

They say they are using your data for research purposes but they also say they can modify the license at any time.

I’m a chezmoi user and I’ll be honest: as powerful as it is, it’s way too clunky to get right. I spend too much time configuring and then am too worried I’ll mess it up if I need to add or remove anything.

I’m going to give stow a try to see if it fits my workflow better.

I didn’t know Honda made sex toys.

There is a linear line from incel to alt-right neo-nazis. The ironic thing is that it happened before the rise of Nazi Germany and it’s happened again here in the US.

This is, unironically, what conservatives think.

¿Por que los dos?

It’s not about blocking porn.

It’s always about control. Conservatives want to control how you consume sexual content.
