I guess, remember that whatever it is didn't happen to several billion other people. It can be hard to switch off empathy.

Also understand that the human brain is a complex thing, and if parts of it are physically broken or missing, the person might not be able to control of what they're doing.

It's taken out Ecosia as well.

Using https://searcxng.online/ instead for now.

Thought it might have been related to Goon Bags - cask wine in Austraila.

Such colourful days :)

Boxing Helena.

It was at a friend's place. It was gruesome.

Imagine falling in love with the Black Knight and cutting all the limbs off so you can keep it in a box.

I work at a community radio station and also am admin for our small town's local Facebook group. It might suck a bit but it still has a large audience.

Asus F555D - 12G RAM, AMD R8 M350DX GPU and a sticker that says Radeon Dual Graphics. That's probably what was tripping up the system booting to a black screen.

Difficult with Facebook as the interface keeps getting changed - the instructions go out of date so damn fast.

So I'm guessing they grabbed the %appdata% for Chrome and were able to get the passwords out of that?

Not Sandisk. Had several just die with no recovery possible.
Kingston had a few failures but probably OK as a cheap one.
Only had one Samsung crash, so mostly sell those despite the premium these days.

Baah. KBIN just ate my reply.

Point form since I forgot to save to clipboard first.

Tried mint - booted to black screen
Tried ubuntu - got silly crashes like in the post trying to install stuff. It also wanted me to sign up for some sort of support package with 5 free devices to get updates or something. Also, trackpad scrolling was uncontrollable. Would scroll up half a screen or more as I lifted my fingers off.
Tried fedora - only 100% and 200% zoom option, and no right click.

Managed to fix the fedora issues with some command line found on Google and a gnome customising addon.

n00b here, just playing. Can't migrate fully as I need VBA and Playit Live etc.

I only saw ASL twice. Memories of mIRC on a monochrome laptop.

 

Have been using this for occasional outside broadcasts. It stopped working today. Downgrading to version 7.0.4 fixed it for now. Unfortunately Rustdesk doesn't support reverse tunnels so I'll have to hunt for an alternative method.

 

Finally migrated back to Firefox today after a multi year user of Chrome.

What pushed me over the edge? Most of my app icons (keep, pulse, calender, whatsapp) stopped opening in their own windows again.

I had to install the PWA extension in Firefox to get that working again, and it's going to be a slight hassle having to copy and paste URLs from all those windows, but I'm tired of fixing the task bar icons.

Could've gone to Edge since it would work out of the box, but I like Firefox. (except for no native PWA support.)

Edit: found I can right click links in the PWA instances and use the send to other device option to open them in my main Firefox window.

 

If you're on kbin and getting an invalid csrf error, can't log in; use your email address instead of your username and you might be able to get in.

If not, try another browser.

If you're like me and have auto load media turned on, you may find that when you go 'back' you end up at the end of the page since the images aren't cached.

An easy workaround is to get in the habit of long pressing and choosing 'open in Chrome'

When you click back, the Chrome session ends and you're back in the PWA where you were before.
