Install lockdown on iOS. It’ll block ads anywhere i assume. It’s such an hostile approach, like medium, I will never install their app or open an account.
Mind you the USA has a sitting president that didn’t win the election by way of a popular vote. More so it’s believed he cheated, though we know that everything that led to the elections was wrong from an ethical point of view. It’s very hard to get rid of these people once they take control of a country’s institutes and dismantle them one by one.
In case you’re not familiar with this guy, his writing isn’t much better. Consider this for example:
In 2016, Thiel apologized for two statements he made in the book: 1) "The purpose of the rape crisis movement seems as much about vilifying men as about raising 'awareness'" and 2) "But since a multicultural rape charge may indicate nothing more than belated regret, a woman might 'realize' that she had been 'raped' the next day or even many days later." He stated: "More than two decades ago, I co-wrote a book with several insensitive, crudely argued statements. As I've said before, I wish I'd never written those things. I'm sorry for it. Rape in all forms is a crime. I regret writing passages that have been taken to suggest otherwise."
It’s not just resources. It’s usability. Electron apps look and feel out of place to me. I would personally never use one let alone for reading an ePub. I get the point about perfect rendering, but that’s a specific problem I’m personally not worried about.
Is it more than just an ePub reader? You really feel it’s justified to spin-up an electorn app (!!!) to read an ePub? I use Emacs’ nov.el or Foliate which are not only low on resources but also instantaneous to open files.
These attempt at spinning the discussion is lame. Russia collusion is not a conspiracy, nor the fact that trump is a neonazi sympathizer. Like father like son.
Anyone buying Firefox will make the project instantly irrelevant. It’s not a product, it’s a community. Let alone a predatory, USA based company like amazon.
Overall, we rate the Washington Examiner Right Biased based on editorial positions that almost exclusively favor the right and Mixed for factual reporting due to several failed fact checks. https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/washington-examiner
You "found"? Stats, research notes, facts, data? ... opinions are not facts.
About your selective and misleading choice of fact checked, you know very well it's about the "acid wash" claim, and not about what the republicans did. You don't need a fact checker to know what Trump said about Hilary and the mail server, nor why it was used and perused so relentlessnesly.
According to the left-leaning watchdog Sourcewatch, Fee has connections to the Koch Brothers. Further, the Least Biased Public Integrity also ties this organization to the Koch Bothers via funding.
As per your edit, yes. That’s my point. Also, I remember a link in a comment (!) to a tweet praising AOC being voted down very quickly, for no apparent reason. Yes. I do think there’s a concentrated effort to influence content here.
* I don’t see that I’ve used stupid anywhere. I’m not commenting in order to persuade anyone, and it’s not a knee jerk reaction. It’s raising awareness to something that might be a thing on HN.
I’d like to support Mozilla going forward. I’m not sure if this is a major revenue stream for them possibly or not, but if I can help, why not. I’m aware of mullvad btw and I need to run out my proton subscription in any case.
Wonderful initiative. Thanks. If I may suggest it’s help to have videos put in to playlist by topic or level of difficulty etc. if you’re planing to publish many that is. Good luck.
Would defiantly move from proton to Mozilla’s VPN the minute they make it available in Europe. Would love to cancel my iCloud storage too, if Mozilla offered an hosted NextCloud or something similar.
Maybe forward to PG who seems to be veering into Peter Thiel territory lately. Might remind him why startups are even a thing he can brag about to AOC.
Are all the headlines on Forbes generated by an algorithm optimized for click baitingness? Why link to a paywalled site most people here don’t seem to care much about?
Startups would not have existed if not for free and open source software. You know, Stallman and the like, which people like Graham pretend don’t exist or don’t matter. But than again, a person that retweets trump is not someone I’m particularly interested in hearing what they have to say in general.
