Why pick shit out of your cereal, when you can just get the other brand that doesn’t have shit in it?

At least they’ve zapped the acceptable ads out of it :)

Ironfox is my current pref for mobile, backed by uBO & a VPN to a box running pfsense.

ABP hasn’t been relevant for years, because they started on “acceptable ads” back in 2011.

Anyone with sense has long since moved on.

It’s not, and it’s the bloody daily heil too.

Use a different service, or encrypt your data before upload & share password separately. For anything remotely private, should be doing that already.

For chaotic good, upload LLM poison to fuck with the training data.

It’s better to name known safe options rather than leave it up to user search. The entities that work against extensions like uBO are already well aware of their existence, so hiding their names has no benefit.

Case in point - uBlock and uBlock Origin are not the same, with the former being a bastardised version that does ‘acceptable ads’. There are plenty of other poor blocking options out there for the unsuspecting to stumble into besides that.

Personal setup is Librewolf/uBO on the client and pfBlockerNG/Snort for network level blocking/additional security layer.

And welcome to .zip :) Hope you enjoy the new home!

At that point I would expect control of it, or at least for it to respect the configuration it is given. If neither are true, then it just doesn’t go online at all. If that’s part of the main function, then I find an alternative or live without it.

Nothing on the inside should be sending anything to the outside that can’t be inspected before it leaves, with the exception of stuff that is directly driven by a human (guests browsing, etc).

This is the best way, really. Generally, you have much more control over what you plug into it.

A display shouldn’t have anything even approaching what can be called an ‘OS’ on it. Yet here we are.

Sometimes even that’s not enough. I’ve had some questionable kit before that would just ignore the DNS settings fed to it if it thought they were no good, and fall back to something else preconfigured.

pfSense is a wonderful tool for situations like that. Anything intended for local use only here just doesn’t get outside at all. Handy for stuff like a fire stick that only needs to be calling up a local media library.

It can also mangle any DNS requests going out to a different server and redirect them to itself instead. You could do this without it with iptables/nftables on a generic Linux box, but pfSense makes it much friendlier.

There are other packages that can do the same, but physically all you need is one piece of hardware as a bouncer that manages connections between inside/outside.

Half the shit I actually want I just run directly these days, rather than nosing through either.

• ncpa.cpl
• diskmgmt.msc
• devmgmt.msc
• control userpasswords2
• cmd
• mstsc
• regedit
• taskmgr

Just to name a few.

It’s utter bollocks. It used to be the OEM crap that had to be removed or clean installed over. Now you have to spend time unfucking fresh installs.

My 11 image is just about usable, but only after a lot of gutting, reg entries, powershell scripts and openshell.

The railroading to sign in with an MS account has become worse too, but still just about bypassable.

They cut the corner because a lack of regulation allowed them to, in order to produce a cheaper model.

It’s a mandatory feature in some other countries.

What’s the P stand for?

You’re right to question the article, which is thin on facts in a very specific area - which better presents the person it is about. Joe Average would probably see “had some weed” rather than “was involved in a cross-state trafficking operation” by the way it is written.

The question could have been better presented. If race was removed from the equation, and the US wasn’t deporting masses of people like it is now - then you probably wouldn’t have had such a strong reaction.

The mod that removed your comment for “misinformation” is following popular opinion rather than fact. “Marijuana-related charge” is vague and can imply anything alongside - including violence.

Regardless, I think they were wrong to deport. Reasonable people will commit crime when pushed to, which represents a failing of the state more than a failing of the individual.

Regardless of the circumstances - if you’re accepted & given the right to stay, you should stay. Even as a criminal.

There shouldn’t be take-backsies on that.

Better article with more detail.

During the pandemic, the family moved into a house that prosecutors say was part of a marijuana trafficking operation.

Yang was among 26 people indicted in a sweeping federal case in 2020. It alleged Yang helped count and package cash that was mailed to marijuana suppliers in California. Prosecutors found bags of cash taped between pages of magazines, according to a complaint.

She took a plea deal and served 2 1/2 years in prison. She said her attorney incorrectly told her the plea deal would not affect her immigration status as a green card holder. But her legal permanent residency was revoked.

At the end of her sentence, Yang was transferred to an ICE detention facility in Minnesota. There, at the advice of another attorney, she signed a document agreeing that a deportation order would be entered against her in exchange for being released from detention.

Despite agreeing to be deported, she and her attorney believed it wouldn’t happen, since only a small handful of people are deported to Laos each year

Sounds like she got involved with something she shouldn’t have as a green card holder, and then took some crap legal advice that didn’t account for an aggressive change in administration/policy.

Not out of the goodness of their own hearts mind. It’s probably more because Euro NCAP are going to be deducting score for not having physical essentials in 2026.

Basically what techradar is as a whole. Ad pieces and listicles with baity headlines.

With any luck, they’ll take some of the users bailing out of Reddit on the nostalgia factor, become mediocre, and die. Again.

Used FF forever, even though the birth and rise of Chrome.

We’re done. The company I IT for therefore is also done. As are friends and family I sort computers for.

The shit now stinks and must be taken out.
