gila

Thanks! Got the script from the TwitchAdSolutions GitHub and it seems to work well

Doesn’t work on Twitch for me (using Firefox). I’ve had some success using ‘Purple Adblock’, but it works by connecting to a public proxy in an ad-free country for the duration of the ad - so it has issues during peak and can get you stuck in a loop

The company made “more than a dozen technical improvements” to AI Overviews …

… making the feature rely less heavily on user-generated content from sites like Reddit

So it prefers the results that Google normally deprioritizes? I guess we have that in common

It dominates the market in vertical tabs IMO. I tried Vivaldi, Firefox extension, the works. The best-feeling alternative was Safari

You’re right that ads supported the model, but the model was also generally anarcho-communist in nature. That people wanted to experience it without ads was expected, and considered fine. It is fine.

Hey my bad. Theres no personal attack here. I interpreted your response as rude, because your equivocation seems to ignore that I acknowledged oxidation and/or static as relevant factors like you suggested, and instead responds to a false reading of a silly position I don’t hold. I just don’t think they’re that significant, as in, storing your leftover unused grounds in a tin for a short time after grinding too much (read: a method of controlling oxidation) probably doesn’t deserve pushback.

If the majority’s coffee is presumably more oxidised than OP’s; I don’t think it’s reasonable to assume that this is simply due to their collective ignorance about oxidation. And with that context, I don’t think it’s reasonable to answer a question about storing ground coffee with, “don’t do it”. Seems very Reddit. I doubt OP is grinding more than they need on purpose. But maybe you just missed/skipped that part of my comment. Either way, I’m open to my assumption being shown as incorrect, should anyone address it.

And any choice someone makes that is different to yours is a result of their ignorance.

And it was worth derailing this harmless thread about OP’s hobby tins to explain this to me despite that I personally make the same choice.

That’s not even an honest equivocation of what I said about coffee, just some um ackshually BS

Smokin’ on the finest dope, ay-ay-ay-ah

Woo! I picture James’ disapproving stare at me everytime I let the kettle go to full boil, or accidentally oversteep ಠ_ಠ

I’d have to assume the effect is not that significant, given pre-ground coffee seems to be the most popular form https://www.statista.com/statistics/456310/coffee-grinding-method-among-us-past-day-coffee-drinkers-by-type/

Probably mitigated by the part of that result which is instant coffee, though

Hey no problem. Thinking more about it, I suppose in like a palliative care context, anything goes really. At least in recreational states, a graded supply of things like pre-rolled doobies would be there for compounders to access.

Sorry, I only meant to talk about smoking as a delivery method for various substances. Of any popularly smoked substance tobacco is by far the worst.

Canna industry vet here. Usually weed is not prescribed for smoking. Where it is, that’s unhealthy to the point that it casts doubt on the validity of the treatment plan. However this was not the case 20 years ago, as even during that short time knowledge about the urgency of smoking-related health outcomes has propagated much more widely. At that time it was judged by many doctors that on balance the smoking delivery method was agreeable in lieu of a better option - but now we have multiple. Thus, smoking as a prescribed delivery method would cast significant doubt over the validity of any treatment plan designed today. Most people just smoke what they’re given of their own accord.

If your doctor prescribes you something for smoking, get a new doctor. That said, crack is the worst for your teeth due to clenching, and tobacco is the worst for pretty much everything else imaginable. Smoking generally is the unhealthiest habit people have, but it’s specifically due to inhaling the free radicals produced by combustion, not “a foreign substance” (we are all continuously breathing foreign substances). If you were just able to take out the combustion part somehow, you could- ah shit they’re already marketing it to kids

For me that number is only what’s left at the Amazon warehouse in my city. There’s always more stock or listings when I deselect ‘Delivered within 2 days’. Because Amazon warehouses in other cities can’t ship to me within 2 days, we’re too remote.

The Nazi enabler part being the bad side, you’re saying we should to reconcile this with the good side. I’m saying the good side is actually just some good shit that happened. Attributing it to Elon would be a mistake because of all of the times he did the same thing with the same intent and it never amounted to anything. For the truly good person, their opportunities to do good things would have been well exhausted before the Tesla opportunity arose. If we’re trying to balance the perception of how good we are it should be a function of the proportion of the things we do that are good vs. bad, not a function of how many things we have the means to try.

I don’t think it’s about whether what he did with Tesla is good (it is at least debatable whether it is unilaterally good given they are anti-competitive in the EV market). It’s rather about the pretense for the good thing. Elon isn’t driven to help the environment. The sum purpose of Tesla’s operations isn’t environmentalism, else they’d not be selling carbon credits to ICE manufacturers, incentivising them to avoid EV production.

And it’s not even just that “the good” was only to make money, it’s that it’s as a member of the landed gentry he had the opportunity to throw many things at the wall that failed before the Tesla takeover stuck; his ‘intervention’ is simply a VC success story by happenstance.

Taking this at face value, is what he did with Tesla really laudable at all? It is a lucky byproduct of elitism.

Hmm, ‘A special court’ possibly gives even too harsh an impression of a tenancy tribunal hearing to the 3rd-party litigation capital of the world! Mine was just over the phone, pre-covid, landlord was no show no answer, got the bond. The legal advice I got leading up to it was free and easy to access. To be fair though, OP is saying the landlord should need to legally justify withholding the bond in court by default, which isn’t exactly how it works in NZ, although the effect is similar in most cases.

This disables a small subset of notifications you might get using Win10/11 that are tips about using Win10/11. It absolutely does not ‘banish ads from notifications’. You will still get ads in the notification center almost as frequently after performing this action, including from Microsoft, including about Windows.
