“The European Union won’t take chicken from America. They won’t take lobsters from America. They hate our beef because our beef is beautiful and theirs is weak. It’s unbelievable” Lutnick told FoxNews

  • Many people leave reddit for Lemmy because of how right-wing Reddit is, but this redditor is complaining that Lemmy doesn't have enough right-wing spaces for people like themselves.

  • Sounds like Chrome isn't willing to support extensions on mobile, but Edge is and accepted Arnaud's Kiwi contributions into their codebase.

    It's just as well, Kiwi Browser wasn't actively developed beyond its original features, it basically just re-added extension code into the codebase, and each update just fixed git conflicts between that patchset and the latest updates to Chromium's codebase.

    From the article:

    It also doesn’t seem like extension support in Microsoft’s browser is as straightforward as Kiwi, requiring you to paste the extension’s ID (e.g. “cnlefmmeadmemmdciolhbnfeacpdfbkd” for Grammarly) into the ‘Extension install by id’ field. By contrast, Kiwi lets you install add-ons directly from the Chrome Web Store or via a downloaded file.

    Edge's extension support is buried behind a bunch of manual steps, most of which the article didn't mention, and installing each extension is arduous. The only mobile browser left that has full extension support is Firefox.

  • If I just upgrade to the latest version (by flashing) and not install mind the gapps, is it basically a degoogled phone?

    It would probably have to be a clean install that wipes userdata, not an upgrade. But yes, LineageOS is pretty much as degoogled as you can get on an OS forked from Google's AOSIP, if you don't explicitly add GApps.

    German privacy researcher Mike Kuketz does not agree, but it all depends on how much effort you're willing to put into degoogling, or how much you're willing to compromise on usability.

  • Israel will never be an official US territory for the same reason that Guantánamo Bay never will be, even though Israel is more important to US interests than all but a few states

  • America ISP options for any given address are listed at https://broadbandmap.fcc.gov/ , and you can filter it to only show high-speed ISPs. It gets updated a few times every year

  • Do you have any .pacnew or .pacsave files? That can sometimes explain breakage, you should resolve them after every update.

     shell
        
    sudo find /etc -name '*.pacsave' -o -name '*.pacnew' | sort
    
      
  • I work 100% remote, which has made it very easy for me to ignore my coworkers' bad politics takes because they're confined to a specific Slack channel

  • I run my VPN and Firefox in a network namespace.

    Docker introduces latency, but network namespaces do not.

  • Conclusive proof that Gaetz's first choice of Democratic megadonor,

    , is dead

  • That's true, presenting your phone to them would make it easier for them to invent a reason to take your phone

  • That means if I used the digital version, they would had unlimited access to all my digital life. Photos, emails, chats, from decades ago.

    Do they actually take your phone when you present it to them for digital ID? They don't scan it and bring up the same information on their scanner?

  • What you're looking for is version sort. Here's how ls -1v sorts those files in the terminal, for example:

     undefined
        
    Link Click S01E04.mkv
    Link Click S01E05.mkv
    Link Click S01E05.5.mkv
    Link Click S01E06.mkv
    
      

    Nemo might be able to support version sort by way of a plugin, but I have not found one. The nnn CLI file manager supposedly supports version sort.

  • Another reason to not use Manjaro. Just use Endeavour instead.

    Endeavour could be useful if it's your first time running an Arch-based distro and you're looking for software/configuration suggestions. Otherwise, Arch Linux is fine by itself and it doesn't have telemetry

  • Is WiFi calling a decent alternative to VoIP?

    I've placed calls using WiFi calling where the person said they could barely understand the words I was saying due to sound distortion. When I called back over VoIP, they said it was crystal-clear.

  • It means that the key to getting a company to ditch arbitration is for enough people to win individual arbitration cases. There's arbitration lawyers who hedge their whole careers on arbitration payouts
