I thought the “get back to free speech” crap just meant they ditch the fact checker, now that the orange overlord is back in charge of clown county. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/meta-facebook-instagram-fact-checking-mark-zuckerberg/

I’ll need a source for that.

Yoga, specifically Hatha Yoga or Ashtanga Yoga with focus on the secondary series (there are 6 total).

I’d highly recommend to start out with classes and a suitable instructor though, there are a bunch of specific warm-ups to loosen some muscle groups and stretching certain areas that allow you to get into the required postures, trying to raw-dog those can lead to injuries if you force your stiff body into some positions it’s not used to.

If all you want are basic exercises to cycle through on a daily basis, 4-8 weeks of guided training is already enough to know what and how to do, you can continue with youtube from then on.

I dislike affiliate links from a privacy perspective. I don’t want to be tracked via my purchase to some creator’s channel that would link my person to certain interest groups. I’m breaking those chains wherever there is a chance, usually by manually copying links and cutting off the tracking bit, or if it’s a URL shortener like bit.ly and the likes, I’ll open it in a private window and then copy the resolved URL minus tracking bit into my main browser window.

I’m not buying anything recommended by creators, unless from their own shops in which case they get the full revenue either way.

If there is a product they recommend that I might be interested in, I’ll research prices and guaranteed find a better deal elsewhere.

I don’t use subscription services at all save for two very specific use cases and don’t play games, so all the vpns, online academies, website business, mmorpgs and whatever they are pushing really doesn’t phase me. If (and that’s a big if) they even make it through sponsorblock in the first place.

Yeah that’s what I’m used to from Germany as well, but seems like they either never implemented it in Asia, or got rid of it a long time ago.

Consent-o-matic doesn’t block them, it opens all the consent dialogues in the background and flips every single switch to reject/deny, so you’ll never be bothered again.

I did. And as I said, it’s a shit business tactic. But for someone who doesn’t support affiliate links whatsoever, the impact is net zero.

I don’t actually care since I would remove affiliate tags by hand - some shops put a markup on the items to offset commissions - but the audacity is quite something.

Use the consent-o-matic browser plugin, works with Firefox mobile, you just have to set it up as a private collection.

Do they still exist? In China and Malaysia where I’ve been living for the last 10 years there are only QR codes at the items that you can scan with the IKEA app.

If you don’t want to install the app, all you can do is take photos of the labels, or bring your own pens.

Ah fuck, that’s annoying. I’m not even sure Amber alerts are a thing in Malaysia, I got one during a business trip to New York years ago that scared the hell out of me since my phone is set to perpetual silent mode with no vibrations, and at like 3 AM it started playing sirens on max volume.

Had it turned off ever since, and only severe threats and storm warnings activated, see those work fine.

Got it, that’s a pretty neat setup. I’ve signed to for your waitlist yesterday, curious to try it out with this next batch :-)

Was just about to post that as well, yep. The irony.

You need to use adb for that? I simply have a setting to disable them.

Pretty hard one today, despite figuring out the general area.

I did, they really annoyed me this year. Mozilla that is. Proton never emailed me somehow, despite being a paying user for the VPN (which is alright, but not great).

That’s pretty much how addy.io works, I think their technology is also open source? At least free for selfhosted use, I never looked into the license itself.

Just had a look at your service and it sounds quite compelling. I’m just wondering how the “not a bot” sender confirmation works - would they essentially get an autoreply where they have to solve a captcha, click on a specific link or whatnot?

I’m curios how that works with senders that aren’t individuals but e.g. services I’m signing up for.

It’s rare in Germany since we have a quite large population and heavy industry compared to the renewables production. We had days with 100% renewable coverage in the past, but negative energy prices are still a rarity.

I believe his excuse was “I don’t deserve it”, but… Yeah. If they even gave him the choice.
