You realize there are a large number of LGBT Republicans, right?

I've actually not worked anywhere that has used CrowdStrike. It's usually ruled out as too expensive (I've mostly worked in public sector). I've had very good experiences with Sentinel One and Microsoft Defender. I'

I have trouble believing that 6.5ms in increased latency would be perceptible to any more than a fraction of a percent of the most elite gamers. Most the people claiming that this level of difference is impacting their gameplay are victims

We can't have people doing things like searching for Tiananman Square or Mao Zedong or talking about how Taiwan and Hong Kong want complete independence from China. I'm sure a big part of the cost is the additional infrastructure

I tried to get this to work a couple of times and gave up. I was trying to rebind a mouse button (back) to a macro and just gave up after a while. I ended up using the G Hub on a Mac and applying settings to the onboard config. I like the i

Claude 3 + Kagi is the exact combo I use. Claude has been my go to since discovering it didn't have the same level of curation / censorship models like ChatGPT and Gemini have. I picked up Kagi the day they released their $10&#x2F

I've had Kagi for several months now and have no desire to go back. Brave is horrible, DDG is bad, and Google is bad AND Google. I decided it was time to trim subscriptions a few months ago and chose to ditch ChatGPT and keep Kagi.

I recently traded a friend my Nvidia 3070 for his Radeon 6700 XT, because I'd returned to Linux a few months ago and was tired of Nvidia. Nvidia should will likely get much better as NVK grows, but I think it's better to just not

My first thought was Dazed and Confused. I'm not sure if it's more iconic in Gone in 60 Seconds, as I've never seen it.

They really don't want this to happen, which I think is a big part of the push behind the "AI is dangerous" narrative. They want to put in place regulations and 'safeguards' that will prohibit any open-source, uncen

Apple Music is privileged when it comes to Siri. I currently have both a Spotify and Apple Music subscription, and one of the main reasons I prefer Apple Music, aside from shuffle not playing the same 20 songs in a 2000 song playlist, is th

I think your comment is also reinforced by the subjectiveness of the question, "What is toxicity?" While I can see a trend of decreasing respect for others, both online and in-person, the pendulum certainly swings in the other dir

I'm not sure what you're referring to with the Like/Love button. It seems to be the same as it ever was for me, except the UI is different based on whether you're in CarPlay, mobile app, or desktop app, so sometimes it&#

I used Soundshift. You can pay ~$7 to have unlimited exporting or do playlists 200 at a time for free.

That (deque) is actually one of my favorite features, and something that had tempted me in the past. I have to relearn some behavior on queue creation though. I'm use to just clicking play, rather than adding to queue, so I end up with

I recently left Spotify for Apple Music, in large part because of this new development path. I don't want podcasts, audiobooks, etc mixed in with my music. I prefer separate apps. I think what bothered me more was the focus on branchin

I think a big part of the problem is the 'For You' feed, which has been trash since the day it was implemented (on practically every social media platform). I remember it being a big pain to get to the chronological feed years ago

I tested in Firefox (uBlock), LibreWolf (uBlock), Safari (AdGuard), and Chromium (no ad blocker), and the initial home page load takes a couple seconds, but I never witnessed a 5s delay. I would say it was actually fastest in Firefox for me

While I tend to assume the vast majority of privacy is either imagined or a façade, I also have a deep enough distrust of authority that when I see such a claim made by a government, or government official, I'm inclined to believe it&#

I'd be surprised if even 10% of people--Americans at least--are capable of regular introspection. It is not a trait I have been able to identify in many others. Interestingly, this posts headline offended me. I'm glad I read it in

It's an opinion article, so I wasn't expecting much, but it seems a little disingenuous. That said, an open-source platform more focused on decentralization would be a better solution, but nothing will be perfect while power and w

I generally dislike publicly traded companies and wish stock markets and speculation didn't exist, but there's no hope of that, so instead I'll cheer on any public corporation that goes private. I think using mass social medi

I wish everyone would go to platform-specific or interest-based forums. I think the Internet was a better place when you just banned the occasional crazy from your forums, whereas mass social media seems to promote their craziness and creat

I've used FreeTaxUSA since 2014 and I've never had to pay for federal, but I have had to pay something for state file. I think it's around $20.

Windows 11 has two features that I appreciate enough to hesitate going back to 10, specifically AtlasOS. The first being auto-HDR. I don’t have to manually switch my displays to HDR when I launch a 3D game with HDR support, and I don’t have

How many studies are faked and how many just have a 'selective outcome'? Almost every nutritional study I read is at some point sponsored by a group that would benefit from a positive (or negative) outcome. I imagine several studi

Their three methods are all things I've employed for a long time and find to be fairly obvious, but I realize a lot of people don't employee even one of them. I use lateral leading extensively, even when the source seems reputable

The rides are cool and it sounds like a fun project. I was a bit caught by surprise at the mention of being told not to go far from your house during COVID. Different parts of the world handled that very differently.

I'm not sure if it was 1999, but I remember Mir being the golden future of display servers and Wayland being a pipedream. That didn't work out very well.

I have tried Wayland several times over the last few years, but I have many persistent niggles caused by third parties refusal to fully support it. For one, Discord doesn't support push-to-talk VOIP on Wayland (I believe it requires th
