Again, idk what you’re talking about. You keep saying people are “sleeping” on these other companies. That generally means you think something is underappreciated, and you want them to get the credit they deserve. I don’t think that’s what you’re saying here though, it seems like you’re saying we aren’t giving them enough negative attention.

I already said we don’t like other mega-corps, and literally specified Walmart. This post simply is about Amazon. Otherwise, I would’ve posted this article instead https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_Walmart

Walmart is, unfortunately, not better.

Idk what you’re talking about, honestly. But I don’t think anyone here is advocating you go from Amazon to another mega corp like Walmart or Target. But as far as problems with Amazon, take your pick: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_Amazon

It was removed because Google did away with manifest v2 for browser extensions, and uBlock Origin worked almost entirely from a feature provided in manifest v2. So it was removed because it can no longer work on chromium devices, unless the browser manually adds back in support for it. Firefox has chosen to continue to support manifest v2, so the original uBlock origin is still available. uBlock lite is still available in the chrome store, and uses the new manifest v3. It is more limited in it’s capability, but should be able to get the most obtrusive stuff. The lite version is definitely not nearly as powerful as the original.

On a side note, it seems to me like the link still works for now. Idk how much longer that will last.

Not voting for him is one thing, but also being eligible to vote and not voting for Kamala makes one an accomplice too. Even voting for a third party doesn’t count, because that took away votes that could have gone towards the one contender.

It’s not a “refresh rate” really. LED’s are Light Emitting Diodes, and a diode is an electrical component that only allows electricity to flow in one direction. So an LED only works when electricity is flowing in one direction. Houses run on AC current (Alternating Current) with a frequency of 60Hz in the US. So if you plugged in normal AC into the LEDs, it would be off half the time, flickering 60 times a second. The LED light bulbs should have built in components that convert the AC signal into a constant DC signal. If you get normal bulbs that are well made, there should be absolutely no flicker.

Are you using a lot of computer screens at work? Because using computer screens can cause eye strain, and also cause you to blink less resulting in your eyes drying out. Both of those can cause headaches. If you do use a lot of computer screens, you should consider getting eye heat compress (my ophthalmologist recommended me this one). You should also be able to get normal store bought LED bulbs that do no flicker. Perhaps try the slightly more expensive name brand options if the store brand isn’t working for you.

You are playing with fire. Except more dangerous. You have zero reason to be using such high DC voltage for photography.

That is the coldest take I’ve ever heard.

According to the Article:

Google in Russia has been inactive since 2022 after the search giant effectively pulled out of the country following Putin’s special military operation.

They didn’t start with that fine, it was just compounding interest

The court imposed a fine of 100 thousand rubles ($1,025) per day, with the total fine doubling every week.

And regardless, Russia can’t block Google’s operations in Russia because Google isn’t operating in Russia since the war. Russia is trying to fire Google when Google quit 2 years ago.

I answered your question on another thread of the same topic, but I’ll answer it here too for anyone else who has the same question: The law is just about digital backups. Vintage stores are still legal, and if anything this would boost sales at a vintage stores. If the game you’d like to play is unavailable at a vintage store or on eBay (or wherever else) then it will be entirely inaccessible for you to play legally.

You’d better not also be reading books for fun. By their logic, any recreational use of books from a library should also be considered illegal.

Where are you that 7 days a week 12 hour days is full time? That’s literally just always working. Standard full time in the states is 40 hour work weeks.

You don’t want someone who wants to get something out of you

Every corporation ever

Nah, it’s okay. The google chrome built in password manager is one of the worst options

“Way better” is an exaggeration in my mind. It may have a few nicer things here and there, but name one thing 1Pass can do that Bitwarden can’t? It certainly has a different UI, but I definitely preferred this over my former LastPass account.

It means someone has a developmental disability. But that is not how people used it. They used it to call someone an idiot, 100%. If someone did something dumb, they would retort “retard”. How is that not exactly how it was/is used? Call them a bafoon, hammerhead, numskull, nincompoop, a schnook, make up a word for all I care. But to use a word that describes someone with a developmental disability should not be used as an insult. Don’t complain about there not being a substitute when there’s hundreds of options. You just seem to want to use it.

It literally is just a substitute for idiot. There are tons of words you can use. Here’s a list of 123: https://www.merriam-webster.com/thesaurus/idiot

Yea, I’ll correct anyone who says it. People may not love it, but there needs to be people calling out other people for shit. A little different direction, but still similar, is men calling out other men for sexist shit. Sexist men often don’t listen to women, but the moment their buddy says something they start to think.

You may lose a few friends doing this, but the people you probably want to be hanging out with will respect you more for it. I find people appreciate being willing to call them out, it takes guts. It takes a real man to call out sexist little boys, and also those who still use the outdated term “retarded” to call someone stupid.
