I am not sure but i read something like that before, probably the reason. Although it’s possible to use newer chrome on Windows 7 by using Vxkex - when it was being developed - or using Supermium, even Steam worked for sometime with Vxkex.
A bit unrelated if you don’t mind but is there a list of popular rootkits or kernel-level spywares for Windows and how they work?
Forsake Electron, Chrome-based Steam client and return to the old ways, was it pre-2020 or 2019? Or at least bring back the old small mode which used to be able to run Steam without web features.
What I’m talking about is human nature. Those democratically elected would eventually accumulate wealth and pass things such as laws that benefit them. I am sorry to say that but the working class can sometimes become gullible that any cheap slogans and promises might dupe them into supporting a charlatan or group of them which in turn those people become the new elite of that society. And the other thing is that even if that happened, the new authoritarian would be the society itself and in this case which would dictate what the individual should do, what to wear,buy, how to behave etc…
Humans are generally self-interest, and please don’t misunderstand this word because it has many different shades. Most people assume that self-interest is being selfish which is only half-true. For example, I like nature and forests, and it’s in my interest that i protect them from trash and pollution and thus i might become invested into protecting it and become an activist. People would think i am being altruistic but in truth it’s serving my interest.
Wouldn’t they become the new dictators, elites, dictating what others should do? The cycle would just go on changing from one master to another with same bullshit. You underestimate how power changes people when they reach it.
True about Javascript since almost all webpages nowadays use it and all use cloudflare as well. But since when does the Cloudflare verification need you to disable adblocker? It never happens with me. I am using Ublock Origins.
But it’s the same thing. You keep the account but don’t use unless for the things you already used it because they already have that data anyway and like i said i doubt they delete it, not just google but most popular services are like that; you’re just deleted from the public records but in their servers all your data is probably still there and who knows, profiting from it. Instead of deleting and never being able to access your account, you can just keep it.
You can’t anymore and even if you did, you will get shadowbanned instantly. There’s no way unless you use the well known ones, i guess proton works but not the aliases though.
Eh, they already have your data and i doubt they actually delete it. it’s better to just keep it and use it for things that you already used it for.
https://www.freac.org/ is a nice program if you’re going to do that.
Btw Piefed has a feature where you could blur posts by bots. Does that exist on Lemmy or the one you have?
Anyway, I usually browse for the ones i subscribed to but i do check out from all fediverse to see if there’s any new ones to subscribe to. I don’t see any recommendations or algorithms here.
I am not native English speaker but the first two sound pretty nice, almost close to native? The last one gives off the slavic accent at the very beginning. All of them sound okay and don’t have the ridiculous accent of slavs you see in movies and films.
Not American but what about competing billionaires, those who have different interest etc.? they are not single group, same to everywhere, or perhaps a show to give the people the illusion of choice like Pepsi and Cola or that they’re in democracy. Wasn’t there a research paper that called US is basically ruled by an oligarchy? It wasn’t some kind of a conspiracy site but a research group or something like that.
Yea I do remember the donald, they weren’t really incel though, just a political sub if i am not wrong. Incels had their own subs as well that got purged at the time along with many ones as well. What was good about Reddit back then was that the platform allowed freedom to a large extent, didn’t bother as long as it wasn’t something in your face that violated the rules, either that, or they didn’t care back then.
True. For me, the quality there pretty much degraded around 2015-6 or at least that was when i started to notice the increase of bot use and such, but some would say it was even before that when one of its founder died. Even after that period it was still tolerable compared to what we have now.
Maybe it will get updated later. Btw, old Reddit still works with accounts. There’s something in settings that tells it to switch to new Reddit and it’s usually enabled by default.
Are you talking about those short reddit links? the only way is to go through them on new reddit then switch back to old.
Not defending that site at all, but not sure who’s to blame more here, Reddit or the whole AI shitshow?
Definitely. Just additional information for users who use Windows, Simplewall which is basically a GUI of the built-in firewall of Windows but it does its job well. I’m sure there’s something like that for Linux too. Hostman is also a good tool although not sure if it’s still getting updated where you can put blocked IPs, ones used with Ublock for example, into the host file of Windows. And lastly, from your router, but this method I have never tried it and neither mine support it.
Do you really think this could work in a city for example where many people live together, not knowing each other? What you say could be possible in a small village where only a hundred people live together but when it exceeds more than 500, it’d impossible IMO and it would always turn into what we have right now.
