My HP’s hinge broke, too. I had to pack the entire back of the case with putty in order to fix it, and it’s still not quite right.
The letter arrived yesterday.
I like the Gormanian and Holocene calendars; but I use the Gregorian for compatibility with the rest of humanity.
Also, as I live in Britain, I use an unholy mixture of metric, imperial, and archaic measurements.
Length of an object? Centimetres. Height of a human? Feet and inches. Mass of flour? Grams. Mass of a human? Stones, pounds, and ounces. Distance by car? Miles. Distance on foot? Kilometres. Volume of a soft drink? Litres or millilitres. Volume of beer or milk? Pints. Volume of non-dairy milk? Also litres and millilitres.
Europe/London, BST, UTC+01:00
Do you use a different calendar system, by any chance?
Yes, but one would assume I meant the 19th of the current month of the current year.
Also “They said the 19th June 2024” doesn’t work so great as a title.
Welp. Guess now is as good a time as any for me to switch to deSEC…
You were, but it appears OP is running Windows in a VM on Linux.
Check out redlib. It’s a fork of Libreddit that doesn’t get ratelimited.
The instance I use: https://lr.vern.cc/
If anything happens to that, not only will it probably be forked, but there’s also kddit and Eddrit, as well as a couple of old Libreddit instances that Reddit forgot about.
I like it. Pretty damn good for privacy, based on Gecko, supports desktop extensions, and developed by the Divested Computing Group (the same one that created and maintains DivestOS).
(The NSA think they’re slick)
It’s okay. I’ll probably end up switching to Arch, though.
It works, but there are a couple of issues:
I’ve already gone and installed macOS 11 alongside OpenBSD (although I’m going to distrohop until I can find something that “sticks”). I might have a look at patching Monterey, though.
As for those specific versions, High Sierra was the oldest version with decent software support, and Mavericks has those lovely skeuomorphic icons. I know it’s old, but I was using OSX Snow Leopard (alongside crunchbang++ i386) until I got this MacBook Pro.
Catalina could be the one, in that case. Essentially:
Some videos already have basic DRM; mainly music videos. However, yt-dlp
, Piped, and NewPipe can play them just fine.
When a platform is as second-to-none as YouTube, people will always find a way to use it the way they want.
You can try playing with Arkenfox, installing uBlock Origin, fiddling with about:config, and giving yourself an aneurysm…
…or you could try Mullvad Browser. It’s a fork of Firefox, co-developed by Mullvad and The Tor Project, with impressive fingerprinting resistance (according to Cover Your Tracks). It’s like Tor Browser without Tor.
Also, install NoScript. It helps a lot.
