Cool, thanks!

I wonder if you can run it off any USB C PD that will do 100w+ without buying the battery pack. I know my MBP USB C power supply does at least 100, if not more on MagSafe.

Hahaha, you’re welcome!

Weird, very weird. Not demure, not mindful.

Pretty much we are a corporate welfare state at this point. Electing officials you think will pass or enforce laws to bring them to heel is your best bet. (People like AOC are preferred, as she has never accepted contributions from corporations to her campaign.)

As an example of this, I believe SexyCyborg got in trouble for reporting on leaks via people’s 3rd party Chinese language keyboards. So her theory is that the keyboard apps people had installed leaked data when Hong Kong protesters were communicating with the press, rather than the actual Signal app. But… as stated above, people have to take responsibility for their device and in this case, they had chosen to install apps with leak issues into the communication process.

How are you using the internet without uBlock Origin? o_O

(I also recommend Google Sign-in Popup Blocker on Firefox. And as others have mentioned, Reader mode is nice.)

Or… trying to tell women what to do with their bodies is weird, like the rest of the Christofascist Project 2025 platform JD is running on.

Some meme stuff, hexbear and lemmygrad basically.

Probably my yahoo mail account. I’ve mostly transitioned off it, but a few things still come to it and it predates even my gmail account (which I barely ever use either). Apple ID’s Hide My Email ability has basically rendered all the other ones pointless though since I can just generate a new fake email address whenever I want to register for something fishy. I wish phone numbers worked the same way.

These are a bit unique from the lists everyone else has, I think:

• Lemmy Keyboard Navigation (like the kbd shortcuts from RES)
• Google Popup Blocker (stop the annoying log in with Google popups everywhere on the web)
• OneTab (this one lets you collapse a whole window of tabs down into a list in the OneTab tab that you can later reexpand into a window again when you re-attack whatever subject all the tabs were about)

These are the more standard ones that everyone seems to run:

• UBlock Origin
• Reddit Enhancement Suite
• 2FAS Extension
• BitWarden

Can’t answer to Tor—haven’t even tried it in years, but I know on Windows, Firefox totally ignores the whole “reopen tabs on restart” pref if you close the last window via the red X in the corner. You have to use control-shift-Q or show menus and select File->Quit if you’re going to quit it in a way it understands as requesting you to reopen the tabs again next launch.

BitWarden provides some encrypted storage on their paid tiers. I think it’s very small, like 1GB, but it’s E2E.

Apple iCloud storage is actually E2E too if you turn on Advanced Data Protection. (Note that not all iCloud features are E2E, like email, for example.) And the price is pretty comparable too. Naturally this works a lot better if you’re on a Mac, but just FYI.

This is kinda genius, lol

I would absolutely send him an email to the effect of

“Per our multiple verbal conversations, this is just to serve as notice that, in my professional opinion, your refusal to allow me to upgrade a system at risk of multiple security vulnerabilities on a platform that is no longer supported is a risk that you are choosing to accept against my advise.”

with a list of known major vulnerabilities attached if possible.

That way at least if this comes back to bite the company on the ass, he can’t say “Well he never told me this was a problem!”

Yeah, it’s a pretty frustrating time to be leaning left. And given the chaos Trump would unleash, it’s not like there is any choice at all about whether or not to vote for Biden… 😿

Yes, and I voted for Bernie when he ran and I would absolutely vote for AOC if/when she does run. Just… the choices in this election cycle are wanna-be, half-demented dictator-for-life vs a “moderate” Democrat who, while he’s gotten a surprising amount done, isn’t exactly renowned for pushing the corporations hard on climate change.

Why the hell can’t we have candidates this awesome on the ballot here in the US?! 😿

Let’s do it slightly differently, let’s make the mandatory retirement age for political office the median life expectancy age for the entire country. If the politicians, etc can manage to make everyone live longer, they can hold office longer.

Similarly, take away their separate and different medical coverage and put them on the same Medicare system everyone else in the country has to use.

Browsers love it!

Practically anything you write will execute without all that scope and well formed statements nonsense.

Mind you, number 2 is also its biggest flaw as well, but…
