Dave Jones also did some videos on the LMV321 used in his uCurrent Gold project. The AS5X variant caused issues while others worked fine.
Looking now, a document source suggests the AS5X variant in the parts list... but it's explained in the video around 19:30
Looks like the vendor has the option to disable Link: https://support.stripe.com/questions/how-to-turn-off-link
Neat, but Ruffle failed to load the first game I tried, with reasoning that there is possibly no file to load.
And then I was blocked by Cloudflare, even though there were no Cloudflare scripts to enable (checking in an alternate browser).
edit: It looks like uBlock origin sees the cloudflare scripts, but NoScript does not (and did not display 3 scripts) initially. I'll have to try again later.
I thought this was entertaining, getting AI generated header images and then discovering the actual tool below. Plus the verbose descriptions.
It may just be me or my internet, but I tried this specifically to see the effect and it was a very slow escape (seemed delayed starting to load, and then loading the escape page).
Alternatively, the back of your knee:

Though this is more for the coughing/sneezing rather than the door opening.
This occurred without an update to Firefox, and against my explicit wishes in my user.js: user_pref("browser.search.update", false);
Not impressed.
I used https://www.canada.ca/en/services/taxes/income-tax/personal-... (or an equivalent page, in case it's shifted around) to look for options a couple years back. I was glad I had this list to look through. I believe I compared Wealthsimple, EachTax, and UFile.
How does one get the combined effects of multiple subdomains? For example, no AI, safe browsing, html, lite, as proposed by others?
If you don't use Private Browsing (or the equivalent) or otherwise clear your browsing cache, DuckDuckGo's AI assistant can be disabled by:
- clicking the little gear to the right of the search types (near "Assist" and "Duck.ai")
- Click on "Manage" for AI Features
- Setting "Duck.ai" to Off
- Setting "Assist" to Never
To the right of the features above, I saw one can save their settings with a password, to the "cloud". This seems to be that you can enter this password when using DuckDuckGo elsewhere for your settings to be set again (or in Private sessions, though you'd have to re-enter the password on a new session).
I remember being thrown off by this.
A user.js entry may help. user.js runs on startup of Firefox/Librewolf, so keep this in mind for your usage application.
the setting is: "privacy.resistFingerprinting", as in: user_pref("privacy.resistFingerprinting", true);
I had stopped using Waterfox in 2020 because of their association with System1, an advertising company. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22338321
I learned today that Waterfox cut ties with System1 in July of 2023, so I'm glad to have an alternative to switch to. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36590056 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36606210
Would you please name the bank that had/has this issue?
I found that damage to either my character or the opponent occurs before what looks like the damage animation (red fill) occurs.
This is neat, thank you for sharing!
Seeing some other comments about unfair power dynamics: Parking.
Parking lot fines where you are accused of misusing a lot and fined: https://globalnews.ca/news/10217661/bc-man-private-parking-c...
Or being charged a fine when you were never there (due to someone reporting your number): https://globalnews.ca/news/9668618/bc-woman-fights-parking-v...
Or when trying to find another working machine your vehicle was ticketed even after being explained it would be waived (sorry, video): https://globalnews.ca/video/10283604/fort-langley-parking-ti...
I found an application called Alovoa through F-Droid, but I see you don't need an phone application to use it: https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.alovoa.expo/ https://app.alovoa.com/ https://github.com/Alovoa/alovoa
Apparently data privacy and open-source is a feature, and it doesn't ask for a phone number.
Those I'm interested in are far away apparently, but I at least started a couple of conversations.
As a heads up, Goodreads was also subject to fake books by authors back in August of 2023, though these were removed.

Interesting, I found it here previously, but it appears to have disappeared from this site (hence archive link): https://web.archive.org/web/20211222213700/https://www.gamed...
A friend of mine wanted me to send them encrypted .gpg files due to being remote but not having the files on their person. They found that downloading some of these files from failed to download.
After testing and submitting a bug report, they were told that ProtonMail assumes attachments are encrypted with the user's address keys, and tries to decrypt them (the .gpg extension is stripped when recovering/recreating the original file name).
The biggest surprise was ProtonMail had suggested for my friend to import their private key corresponding to the public key for the attachments as a workaround. My friend did not agree to do this.
Unsure if DOS, but I rather enjoyed Quenzar's Caverns: https://archive.org/details/QuenzarsCaverns_1020
There was also a game called God of Thunder where you play as Thor that played in a fashion like Legend of Zelda (collect items, bring to an NPC to advance, fight bosses) but can't think of the name now. It was playable in DOSBox on Windows 7, haven't tried it elsewhere yet. IIRC, you had to type in the run commands rather than just double-click to play, but that may have been me not taking time to set up something easier.
I received a few e-mails from Playstation/Sony recently that were intended to go to <firstnamelastname>@gmail.com but I received them at <firstname.lastname>@gmail.com.
I tried doing a password recovery of the account (to see what I could do to change the address, or contact Playstation) and found that on their end, firstnamelastname@gmail.com and firstname.lastname@gmail.com are treated differently:
Both gave the message that a reset e-mail had been sent. Only firstnamelastname@gmail.com caused me to receive an e-mail.
So Google (and other e-mail providers, like ProtonMail) ignore the dots, but it's possible that other companies don't ignore this.
Resolving the Playstation account required calling their support line for about 30 min, talking with an agent, and then replying to an e-mail generated specifying some information to confirm that I hold the e-mail account. They seem to already have the option for reporting misuse of an e-mail address.
Pasting here because of frustration and bugs I see being an issue related to this thread: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1758609
It was called the SKLed:

and now redirects to a 404: https://ecat.com/ecat-skled
I'm disappointed, because the Dec 9 event was previously a new LED light of some sort, and now I can't find it with a cursory search.
$25 maybe for preorder at the time. Maybe I'll check wayback machine or something.
Successfully updated on Linux Mint through Apt and experienced no issues with 359 tabs.
I expect tabs to be unloaded (I start and stop Firefox frequently). I may not be seeing what you mention.
Heads up, you may lose your tabs when you update. It seems normal tab restoring procedures apply, but if you collect many like me, it means an initial shock of reloading all of them.
"I lost my tabs after the update — What can I do?
You may notice that after updating Firefox to version 94, the tabs from your previous session were closed. To learn how to restore a previous session, visit How do I restore my tabs from last time? Alternatively, following the prompts in the Open previous tabs? one-time notification that will appear after the update will also allow you to restore the tabs from your previous session. "
