I can make different rules based on the device group with PiHole.

This is what fascism looks like folks.

They are an embarrassment to Americans.

Yeah, pretty much.

Some of it is though. For example, they take forever to update their servers when new versions of Lemmy are released and it often breaks compatibility with apps. They also have constant service disruption. Even if it is ddos attacks, they should be trying to mitigate them.

I’m a Linux user, so I use .gz and .bz primarily for compression. If I just need to archive without compression I’ll just make a tarball. People on windows never complain. Maybe it’s just that I’m in the IT field, but most people have an archiving program installed. Plus, I am pretty sure Win11 can open most archive formats natively now.

I’m on Lemmy.world. I just picked it because it was one of the biggest, but I haven’t been entirely happy with it.

Yeah, I agree. I have replaced all my C-to-C cables with 2 meter cables. The 1 meter cables are just too damn short.

Same. I have a PiHole on my home network and it blocks the ads in Sync. I still see the empty box where the ad would be though. If I am out of the house the only way I can get that ad blocking back is by connecting to my home VPN server.

This Baseus USB C 65 Watt 3-port charger. I recently bought one to carry in my laptop bag as a portable charger, and it has proven to be indispensable. I’ve already used it while out and about or on trips out of town to simultaneously charge 3 devices at once. Such as my phone, earbuds, and laptop. It’s so small and lightweight, and you can bring a single charging brick to take care of all your devices. I’m never going back to having to carry multiple chargers with me.

Personally, I think the app is absolutely fine without paying for the subscription. I really don’t see too many ads. I get an average of one ad for every two refreshes of the feed when scrolling through, and none of them have been obtrusive. It’s certainly night and day when compared to the ads in the official Reddit app.

I don’t live in the EU. I have contacted my local representatives in the US, but we all know they are useless and won’t do a damn thing about it.

I am really hoping some regulatory body strikes this down. Where’s the EU when we need them?

Yeah, the future of democracy in the US hinges on this case.

r/Fedora and r/ThinkPad. Those are the two I spent the most time in. I will also really miss my guilty pleasure subreddits like r/gaystoriesgonwild, r/Twinks, and r/GayKink. Haha.
