Build more housing.

It’s a very interesting read, this is the second year in a row that I donate to the project. I encourage you to do it as well.

The convenience of streaming services disappeared, this is just a natural consequence.

I’m still using uBlock Origin to block ads everywhere, but I no longer use YouTube directly, instead I go through Invidious or Piped.

I’m happy to report that the vote was postponed because they did not have the votes for the proposal to pass. I know it is not a definitive victory because they will simply try to do it again, but it’s good that they failed once again.

It seems like it worked, the same guy published an update asking people to stop filing the same complaint again and again. The agency is looking into it.

It could be simply luck because it is a slow rollout, or it could also be that you got the filter updates on the background. In any case, you know what to do if you ever run into it.

Yes, they can, it will probably become a cat and mouse situation. The main idea is to put pressure on people that will not take the time to keep looking for alternatives or new solutions and will simply pay up or watch the ads.

Use Firefox, update the uBlockOrigin extension, update the filters, remove any other adblocking extension in case you have it. Should work just fine then.

Make sure you’re using the latest version of uBlockOrigin, then update all your filters. Should work just fine.

The picture comes from the cover of a Goosebumps book, I used to read those when I was a kid, good times.

Firefox FTW.

I’ve been using ProtonMail for a while now and it works very well, they also offer a drive, calendar, password manager, VPN; you can choose if you want all the features or just email.

I also tried Tutanota and they do a good job as well, they’re a smaller company and don’t have as many features as Proton but if all you need is reliable, private e-mail, it’s a good option.

English is phonetically inconsistent, you can find examples to support both ways of pronouncing it.
