I use this https://gitlab.com/magnolia1234/bypass-paywalls-clean-filters/-/raw/main/bpc-paywall-filter.txt works well for NYTimes. you just add this list to your favorite adblocker I use Firefox with Ublock

Wastewater Operator. We have an older gentleman at my job who refuses to use computers at all. We still do everything with paper and pen. Nothing is digitized.

There’s no data in Central New Jersey where I live

Why is this guy even running? Who does he even appeal too?

It would be far easier to start a populist movement that reigned in corporations. The problem with revolutions is you never know who’s going to to end up on top at the end. Most likely the new regime will be just as bad as the old. I think what we actually need is more democracy. I like the idea of a democratic referendum that allows the people to force the government into action.

Can I get YouTube AdBlock and can I add custom filter lists?

I had a Nexus 10 they abandoned after two years. Made me never want to spend money on an android tablet again. Honestly I would probably switch to iOS if I could have ad blockers.

Yeah I think iPad’s are clearly better than any android tablet.

Pixels give you 5 years now same as iphone.

Isn’t threads a Twitter clone? Will it even effect Lemmy? For me personally I don’t use Mastodon, but I might if threads is successful. I use Twitter to follow famous people I like. If famous people move to the fediverse because of threads that will only make sites like Mastodon better in my opinion.

Yeah I think In a year or two this will be just as good as Reddit, maybe better. Personally I prefer Lemmy, it reminds me of Reddit before it gained mass appeal. The important thing is now there is a viable alternative to Reddit. Everytime Reddit does something controversial, this site will gain a wave of new users.

I work a union job, most people never leave. Usually the old guys retire in waves though. They’ve all known each other for decades and don’t want to have to have to train the next generation.

Think about WWII numbers. About 1,100,000 Soviets died in the Battle of Stalingrad alone.

America is better at war. Shock and Awe was effective. War is an atrocity, to be good at it you have to be willing to commit atrocities. If Russia had started out with a similar strategy Ukraine might be an occupied territory of Russia right now. I don’t support any invasion, but if you decide to invade a country you need to hit them hard before they have time to organize their defense. I think Russia had some weird Idea that Ukraians were going to welcome them as liberators. I think this is because the Russian government began to believe their own propaganda. Putin surrounds himself with people who tell him what he wants to hear.

I’ve been using Bing chat allot. I got the extension that lets me use it on Firefox. It’s insanely useful, and I feel like it’s getting better with time as it learns. I still use DuckDuckGo for search though, although I’ve been using search less and less as Bing chat gets better.

Yeah to get a good ratio you basically need to get a seedbox which cost money anyway. Might as well just use Usenet. I have one private tracker I use I found the best thing to do is seed large obscure tvpacks. Also porn.

This was the guide I used. https://blog-harveydelaney-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/blog.harveydelaney.com/configuring-your-usenet-provider-and-indexer-with-sonarr-radarr/amp/?amp_gsa=1&amp_js_v=a9&usqp=mq331AQIUAKwASCAAgM%3D#amp_tf=From %251%24s&aoh=16884082633644&referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&ampshare=https%3A%2F%2Fblog.harveydelaney.com%2Fconfiguring-your-usenet-provider-and-indexer-with-sonarr-radarr%2F

I don’t think so, Lemmy is just going through growing pains. Those instances are already talking about refederating.

That’s the hard part, getting in. You basically have to beg and jump through hoops to get an invite. I’d rather just pay for Usenet, lol.

I’m just sticking with Jerboa I think. It seems to have everything I need. It hasn’t crashed for me in awhile either.
