Shut-in, keeper of weird hours.
For those who don’t use Google services, but still need voice navigation, just wanted to mention RH Voice, which is available on F-Droid. Has worked well for me so far when using Organic Maps.
@Kwakigra@beehaw.org, @Gaywallet@beehaw.org, & @h3mlocke@lemm.ee: I probably wouldn’t have found this if it weren’t for Arts & Letters Daily, which I highly recommend, if you haven’t already heard of it. It’s definitely more humanities oriented, but over the years they’ve posted a lot of interesting stuff that I probably would never have read otherwise.
Although a poll of ~1600 people does seem like kind of a small sample size . . .
A life that was probably “nasty, brutish, and short” would be my guess.
Ok (um, then they do it why?) My attention has been really divided for the past couple days, so I haven’t really read very deeply into PPA.
Didn’t know that; maybe they should reconfigure themselves to be more like Wikipedia? 🤷 It seems like Wikipedia has way more users than FF, and they’re able to keep going on the small donations they request from time to time.
Indeed it does! And it might be nice if it wasn’t checked by default like it was in mine, but ok, I guess.
Also, what have hamsters ever done to you? 😉
Does anyone know if the PPA/Personal Pan Pizza Privacy/Whatever thing has an about:config entry or is it controlled from about:preferences#privacy?
EDIT: To answer my own question, the about:config entry is “dom.private-attribution.submission.enabled” which should be set to “false”; for those of us who use arkenfox, you should add this to your user-overrides.js file and then run the updater:
user_pref(“dom.private-attribution.submission.enabled”, false); // Disable Privacy-Preserving Attribution
This is correct AFAICT.
EDIT EDIT: Also, possibly naive question: Why can’t Mozilla/Firefox just ask for donations like Wikipedia does instead of sneaking around, which they sort of seem to do once in a while?
Thanks for the small shred of hope 🙏
I have fond memories of playing these, but dear god was Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy frustrating! There was another Infocom game, Trinity I think it was, where you needed to get some water or something like that, but you couldn’t put it in an empty boot, you had to have the bucket for it to work. Kind of like playing “guess the mind of the programmer.” Fun times, even so. And then there was Leather Goddesses of Phobos . . . 😊.
Hi ulkesh, looks like you might be responding to a comment I deleted because I felt like I was bragging and being too preachy. Anyway, do you use any other flavors of Linux besides Garuda (I had to look it up, I hadn’t heard of it!)? How do you like it? And your DE environment of choice is, I guess, KDE?
As far as InDesign alternatives go, do people know about VivaDesigner or even LaTeX for that matter?

Time to switch to Linux 😁👍 (there are plenty of Adobe alternatives for it, although they don’t necessarily offer 100% replacements). I’m convinced that Adobe is one of the major reasons that people stick with windows. If worse comes to worse you can run windows on Linux using a virtual machine (and believe you me, if I can do it then you can too).
That’s good to know, thanks!
I have the option to see hidden files using Material Files (won’t let you look inside Android folder tho); if you need something more heavy duty there’s Ghost Commander. Both are available on F-Droid. There’s also Files from GrapheneOS, which might be available on the Play Store, but not sure about that one.
From Wikipedia: The Ludwig von Mises Institute for Austrian Economics, or Mises Institute, is a nonprofit think tank headquartered in Auburn, Alabama, that is a center for Austrian economics, radical right-wing libertarian thought and the paleolibertarian and anarcho-capitalist movements in the United States. It is named after the economist Ludwig von Mises (1881–1973) and promotes his version of heterodox Misesian Austrian economics.
Well, they spoke with the EFF which made Privacy Badger, so maybe that’s why. They did the password thing with the dice, tho, which I guess is good.
✔HTTPS 👍
✔VPNs 👍
I thought DNS over HTTPS (DoH!) was not recommended for some reason . . . My VPN provider claims to be using its own DNS servers.
