ah, yeah i see what you mean!

i mean, i have never in my life seen this case anywhere. until i saw your comment i thought it was some shitty startup manufacturer trying really desperately to become a “cool” brand. but i guess that’s not far off from what google is. makes sense that they would design something this tacky

sly 3

mirror’s edge

also portal 2 somewhere in there

dozens of variations

this is like saying windows 10 and 11 are completely different operating systems that can’t run the same .exes

just learned through another reply, thank you for putting my mind more at ease brothers 🤝

oh damn, didn’t know about tor’s history either! thank you for the relief. faith restored cautiously

well, this is concerning to hear. i had no idea signal was funded by the US state

gonna kiss myself with a cement brick if they let zuckerberg buy it and turn it into the same UX nightmare that reels is

i had history disabled for a while until i realized that it then forgets your progress in longer videos… deal-breaker for me

they’re interested because they profit from the marketing based on the data

didn’t know, that sucks

Qwant (france-based), startpage (NL-based), searxng (bunch of host options)

honorary mention to Stract which is currently totally useless because the results are so random, but hopefully in a few years it will be a proper alternative. they are indexing the web from scratch in order to not have to rely on existing data from other search engines (which is why the results are terrible right now lol)

duckduckgo is a US company and the CEO is the previous founder of The Names Database. i don’t know how anyone trusts it when there are so many EU alternatives

sad that twitter users will jump to literally anything except mastodon. wake me up in 15 years when bluesky finishes its twitter elon musk cycle and it’ll be like i took a 12 second nap

very simple, i just host files on an external hdd on my macbook (which i use all day anyway) over plex, then watch through apple tv. i tried Infuse in the past, but their library and metadata handling is just atrocious (and there is like a 5+ year old active forum thread of people repeatedly begging the devs to allow “custom shows” through manually created .nfo files, but i guess the devs care more about superficial UI changes and abandoning their previous one-time purchase option in favor of subscriptions)

linux rookie here, what’s the command to reverse an alias then? do you just “alias ls ls” to overwrite it?

i have no idea what this company is, but their name has such big Succession energy that the headline reads like satire

i choose to opt for the most convenient service (currently spotify even though ceo daniel ek is a lunatic who invests in AI military tech), and then i buy vinyls/merch/tickets/bandcamp copies directly from the artists to actually support them. if you’re not into spotify then apple music and tidal both work fine with some caveats

i choose to believe that this is not an issue if you regularly change your sheets
