i can’t. unless i’m really, really tired. i prefer blankets… as in plural… with some bulk and weight to them.

rules for thee, but not for me (or those who give me money)

We are living in the state of Fuck it.

pretty much sums it all up right there.

so, you’re logged in, have a purchase history that includes clothing, and azn is trying to make a sizing recommendation?

and you could change him into something else. links the cat was mine.

real-life clickwrap.

‘kindly recite the full text of the terms of service before i choose whether push the button or punch your face’

captive portal detection, certificate status verification, and iirc server settings updates. yes. none of them are ‘absolutely required’ but they do exist to improve the reliability and secure operation of the program–and none are secret nasty spying telemetry. just turn those particular settings off as desired.

i nuked my post history and haven’t logged-in to ‘that site’ in about two years. there is one sub i lurk in occasionally that hasn’t gained any traction on the lemmy equivalent. that’s it other than the (relatively infrequent) pointer to a post from a web search for which no other alternative was listed.

there is mv3 version of ubo here:
https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBOL-home

dunno how well it works on yt, though. i use dlp on a pc for the time or two a month i ‘need to’ look at a yt vid.

adguard’s free browser extension is also mv3 compliant (for chrome). i think the old adblockplus (disable ‘acceptable ads’ and ignore offer to ‘upgrade’ to a paid version) is, too.

anything that comes in a box.

that’s been done before. maybe next time a different nearby building of a similar color could be chosen.

i can’t afford to be choosy, it’s whatever i got. whatever was on sale. whatever generic or store brand is cheapest. never jelly, though, unless it’s homemade. always jam or preserves. right now it’s from aldi with bread from the regional gas station chain.

but i will not ever again use walmart ‘great value’ peanut butter. the ‘new’ recipe introduced in the last year (along with the new ‘smaller’ 16oz jar that is really just the same exact size jar as the 18oz jar, just filled less) is worse-than-dollar-store trash.

2016, too. literally a convicted felon 34 times over from efforts to illegally influence that election.

the links to those probably start with www.facebook… and their “peers” have reviewed them.

too often. but at least they’re $50-80 flippers and not $1000 slabs.

cookies are just text. they could literally contain an ip address or a hash or other identifier that refers to one.

spotify can’t directly obtain data from a linkedin cookie. but ad networks and other ‘third parties’ could provide ‘targeting’ or even identifying information to them.

use a different browser profile, or better–an entirely different browser–for vpn browsing.

shit-filled and a huuuuge splash radius.

“86” means “ged rid of”, not kill.

the latter could be denoted by 18747.

i just finished a single month here, first one in a couple years. ran out of stuff by week three. it’ll be at least another 2-3 years before another binge month, if i ever go back at all.

they already make significantly more profits off of each ad-tier sub than they do the ad-free… yet it still isn’t enough. greedy fucking bastards.
