Who puts ties on three corners of a sign and says “yup, looks good”?

They’re called “macros”.

The regulation states:

Equality 8. (1) Every person shall have the right to equality before the law and to equal protection of the law. (2) No person shall be unfairly discriminated against, directly or indirectly, and, without derogating from the generality of this provision, on one or more of the following grounds in particular: race, gender, sex, ethnic or social origin, colour, sexual orientation, age, disability, religion, conscience, belief, culture or language. (3) (a) This section shall not preclude measures designed to achieve the adequate protection and advancement of persons or groups or categories of persons disadvantaged by unfair discrimination, in order to enable their full and equal enjoyment of all rights and freedoms. (b) Every person or community dispossessed of rights in land before the commencement of this Constitution under any law which would have been inconsistent with subsection (2) had that subsection been in operation at the time of the dispossession, shall be entitled to claim restitution of such rights subject to and in accordance with sections 121, 122 and 123. (4) Prima facie proof of discrimination on any of the grounds specified in subsection (2) shall be presumed to be sufficient proof of unfair discrimination as contemplated in that subsection, until the contrary is established.

“Black Economic Empowerment” does not mean “no whites”. It means “blacks need to be part of the economy”. BLM does not mean “white lives do not matter”. It means “blacks shouldn’t be dying”. Feminism does not mean “women should be held above men”. It means “women should be treated equally”.

The only thing excluding Musk: he isn’t part of a marginalized group. He’s a billionaire. He isn’t marginalized.

They aren’t. He’s lying.

Next time ask for a summary.

Screw is slang for copulate and dates from the late 18th century and, from about the same time, also meant a prostitute, hence ‘screw you’ is often used as a euphemism for "fuck you’. Screw, as in a prison guard, is slang from the early 19th century and derives from earlier slang, ‘screws’, from the late 18th century, which were the keys that the guards carried. Screw as in money or wages, as in being ‘on a good screw’ is slang from the late 19th century. Screw, as in to swindle or cheat someone out of money, also dates from the late 19th century.

45° being suboptimal is actually covered in the article!

This plus the perfect monitor rotation (22°) makes for peak efficiency.

Is it possible to deny the permissions and see whether anything breaks?

I guess grok isn’t doing so well.

Pi-hole works great for me, but everyone else on the network that uses Google hates it because the entire first page is ads and they can’t click on them.

He believed that the Earth had “fluid electrical charges” running beneath its surface, that when interrupted by a series of electrical discharges at repeated set intervals, would generate a limitless power supply by generating immense low-frequency electrical waves.

In recent experiments I have discovered two novel facts of importance in this connection. One of these facts is that an electric current is generated in a wire extending from the ground to a great height by the axial and probably also by the translatory, movement of the earth. No appreciable current, however, will flow continuously in the wire unless the electricity is allowed to leak out into the air. Its escape is greatly facilitated by providing at the elevated end of the wire a conducting terminal of great surface, with many sharp edges or points. We are thus enabled to get a continuous supply of electrical energy by merely supporting a wire at a great height, but, unfortunately, the amount of electricity which can be so obtained is small.

There is the Brave chromium browser, but it lacks Mozilla’s previous track record. This is enshitification at its finest.

You could host Mozilla’s sync software yourself and integrate it with LibreWolf.

From an online post:

“DisableFirefoxAccounts”: false, in the policies.json

lockPref(“identity.sync.tokenserver.uri”, “https://token.services.mozilla.com/1.0/sync/1.5”); in the librewolf.overrides.cfg

You need the 2nd one to enable LibreWolf to look for the sync-server. Otherwise every sync query ends nowhere.

Someone else online in the same thread said:

Seems it changed

defaultPref(“identity.fxaccounts.enabled”, true); // sync and firefox account

in the /usr/lib/librewolf/librewolf.overrides.cfg

I haven’t done this myself, so I can’t say for sure that this process works. But hopefully my findings are helpful.

On another note, I personally avoid chromium based browsers because the major players are all involved in its development and have incentives that do not favor the user’s best interests. Firefox, with all of Mozilla’s flaws, is still the best option for supporting the open web. But instead of being the force for good it was, it became the least evil.

Yeah, they’re definitely doing targeted advertising. I don’t like that one bit. I’m disappointed in Mozilla.

What year did it release? There are apparently many titles with Debbie Does Dallas.

What video is this from?

There isn’t anything inherently wrong with stealing if you need to, but in our society, you’ve done some things that are socially unacceptable. However, you can’t change the past so don’t worry about it. People do dumb shit when they’re young. You can only change your behavior to better yourself and your neighbors in the future. Be better tomorrow than you were today.

That is neat!

Is it true that in Spanish, the word “propaganda” can be used interchangeably with “publicidad,” which means advertising?

Apple could have done the same thing with the EU. Either don’t put USB-C on their phones, or cease doing business in those countries.
