Shocked I tell you, shocked!

You’re in an abusive relationship with Duolingo. Support is available.

My dyslexic ass spent too long staring at the words to ensure the joke was indeed the joke I thought it was.

Whilst absolutely true for the short term, the ‘lifetime’ emissions of a EV can be up to 70% lower than petrol cars in countries with renewable electricity, or 30% lower in the UK now with its mixed power generation.

Yes, if everyone switched to a EV today, the environmental impact would be immense due to manufacturing. But if they switched to it after their current ICE vehicle usable life has expired, longterm it would be better for the environment.

They’re not specifically targeting their protests to inconvenience the influencers, politicians or industries supporting the licensing of Big Oil. The majority targets making a large spectacle, with a significant amounts of criminal damage - something to become news-worthy.

Not once have I seen them promote alternative policy changes for oil & gas use. They’re also not promoting projects dealing with climate change.

They’re certainly getting exposure, but they’re not winning the public vote. I agree with their cause, but I despise their methods.

Podman ftw!

The network… In the cloud… It does mysterious things!

Never knew it was illegal in the UK. Didn’t surprise me though to learn it was Margaret Thatcher who outlawed it again in the 80s.

Roblox_oof.mp3 is a masterpiece.

But now all I want to do is turn off the light switch.

I crave the chaos.

Agree with her views on algorithm transparency, however abolishing anonymous accounts won’t improve the situation around misinformation.

Facebook has required your real name for a long time, and it still resorted into people dissecting into echo chambers supporting their views points.

Yes, anonymous accounts allow people to hide behind a mask, but a lot of people spreading misinformation aren’t afraid of being humiliated or ridiculed. It even helps spread it faster (celebrities, influencers, etc) in a lot of situations.

Even if they were blocking posts, it’ll be because FB purposely wrapped them to look like an Ad

Considering he knew exactly how many votes he needed to win Georgia, couldn’t this be used against him in court?

Everytime I listen to “Status Report”, I start grinning like a cheshire cat.

At least they have physical buttons below the screen for media, hazards and heated windscreens & seats, plus all the steering wheel controls.

Much like naming a company “X”

Considering they dismantled every control they had to prevent disinformation, and it was already a cesspool to begin with… Why are people still using Twitter?

Wounds are usually slightly itchy to me.

Sounds like the DNS TTL (Time to Live) is set extremely low, preventing clients caching the record. Each time your browser makes a request (such as updating the graphs), it’s submitting a new DNS query each time.

According to this post, this is intentional behaviour for PiHole to support situations where you change a domain from the block to allowed. The same post also references the necessary file modifications, should you wish to extend the TTL regardless.

The only downside you’ll notice is a delay after whitlisting a domain, and it actually being unblocked. You’ll need to wait for the TTL to expire. Setting it to something like 15 minutes would be a reasonable compromise.
