@sheogorath can you confirm?
10k calls per day…
More than 1 every 10 minutes. Seems legit.
Do you have a number that’s 1 digit away from Dominos Pizza or something?

What’s a “For you Feed?”
You can travel in a car, Uber, Grab and taxis allow you that convenience if you really need to go by car. It’s not about rich and poor. Having lived in SG and in HK, the public transport systems are really good, but I never felt the need for a car, indeed in HK the cost of parking alone is way higher than to use public transport. I have friends that live in the smaller villages that cannot survive without a car, but all they use it for is to drive to a convenient public transport hub.
I’m a petrol head, I love cars and now I’m living somewhere that has almost no public transport, so I now have a car again and I enjoy the freedom and fun that I love about car ownership. But it doesn’t change my opinion about using public transport where it is the better option.
It gets rid of the nag screen so you can just watch the video. For uBlock Origin, it’s a bit crude, may affect other bits of interface, I also use the Enhancer for YouTube plug-in for Firefox which is really useful.

Oh no, anyway.
I lived in Singapore without a car, there is no need to own a car. I used public transport and ride sharing without ever feeling that having a car would have improved my experience. In Hong Kong it was the same, and I lived in the Northern Territories, however in Sydney we had a car even though public transport was great, because its a big fucking country. Now in Penang, Malaysia there is no usable public transport, so a car is absolutely essential.
These shopping malls in BKK have metal detectors on their entrances, I have set off the detectors many times with cameras and other equipment but never once been stopped. I was in this mall a few months ago and none of the entrances with metal detectors were manned.
I have used it since 2010, never paid a penny. Moving friends and relatives to Signal has been a waste of time, I feel like I have the first fax machine in the world.
Same problem here, fortunately my FB feed is cleansed by uBlock Origin with custom scripts that block all the “suggestions for you” and other such bollocks as well as the ads. It’s surprising how little content my family actually post, means I can drop in once a week and not miss anything.
Oh wow, I hate it so much. Look down at the screen, aim for a button or piece of UI, look back at the road because you have traveled about 100m without checking what in front of you, or coming at you from the side, keep your finger on the same trajectory towards the desired UI then BUMP, you hit a slight depression in the road and FUUUUUUUUUUUKKKKKK you just switched off your favourite podcast and switched on the FM radio you never use so it’s never tuned and it in so it goes BRRRRSHHHSHHSTTTSHHEEEEXXXHS. Then it takes about 4 or 5 steps to get back your podcast, each of which can turn out to be exactly the same as the one which switched on the FM radio.
Touch screen in cars. Whomever it was that signed off on that development, may you suffer a long and painful death.
Ublock Origin is free.
Are you using Prowlarr? It allows you to use both Usenet and Torrent sources transparently with the Arrs. Works really well for me and you get good performance stats of each source.

The UK wanted to introduce full democracy in Hong Kong prior to the handover to China in 1997. China’s response was to threaten to send in the tanks.
Hong Kong has zero democracy today, the majority of the Legco seats are unelected, and those that are elected, Beijing nominated all the candidates.
Contrast the reaction of the UK to people with direct access to a security minister and foreign affairs committee chair arrested for allegations of having spied for the CCP, bailed until trial next month, with the reaction of the CCP in Hong Kong to individuals like Jimmy Lai, a newspaper owner, held without trial for years for “collusion with foreign powers”. There are thousands of political prisoners in Hong Kong, held without trial.
Just like with IE in the distant past, I’m noticing websites that insist that you use Chrome to use their systems, lazy Devs can’t be arsed to make their code platform agnostic. Or more likely, management took the decision. Where I work we have transitioned to Edge because it works with our back end systems. But there are still some SaaS systems I use that only guarantee compatibility with Chrome.
I use Firefox at home, natch.
Edit; I use Firefox on my Sony phone as well, have uninstalled Chrome but now I find that ChatGPT only works with Chrome. Agghhh
Xitter is a good compromise, and almost onomatopoeic.
Kitchens need to be kept under negative not positive pressure, typical make up air units supply 85% of the airflow of the exhaust. Source, I used to design HVAC systems and have done multiple McDonald’s restaurants.
