This is all over a GitHub stars badge? Developers probably want to encourage people to star it. It’s a huge stretch to say they’re trying to track people

You’ve been sitting in the drive through for 10 minutes how do you not know what to order?!

Me, 16 years old, on the other end of the speaker

Because Chrome has already announced they are killing adblockers with manifest V3, and they have been very public about that for years.

Firefox just announced 2 weeks ago they are supporting manifest V2 & V3, and going on to support adblockers.

Yeah it’s pricey, very pricey, but the risks are just too high for a home not to be properly grounded anymore. Homeowners have had 50 years to do it, it’s time to get it done.

I know that the answer is yes

I mean, there you go, and all of the above. I’d add in a pretty large fire risk too. I hear my battery backups kick in regularly, and we’re talking about enough power to equal a large appliance (at least in my case). It’s 100% worth it to move them to a grounded outlet.

part of the reason I haven’t done anything right there. what is there to switch to? Chromium? Where they are actively killing adblockers?

They are, but I’m still disheartened. Googlers tried to take a stand last year and they immediately paid them all off

Bingo

Oh so you’re saying all Reddit users literally eat babies?

/s. The vitriol on that site was just exhausting.

Lol dude got the exact things wrong about Lemmy - clear they haven’t spent much time here. Fediverse is NOT privacy focused, in fact it’s the opposite. You blast your content out to everyone. The only privacy is your username, and that aint much. It’s user owned, that’s the saving grace, that corporate doesn’t own it. We sacrifice fake corporate privacy for open standards.

Right? Failed by who’s standards? For me, I’m pretty goddang happy here. I get enough content, I don’t feel constantly anxious or angry, the people are generally pretty nice. Is OP deciding it failed? Or are others?

Then getting mad when we call them out on their trolling

No one can tell you here beyond “DRM bad”. Which it is, and I hate it, but you’re exactly right. All it would do if Firefox refused to implement would drive most users to chrome because there DRM works.

We are not the majority. The majority (and by that I mean roughly 96% of users) want their browser just to work. Taking a moral stand doesn’t resonate with them, they just see a broken browser and move on.

Fucking finally. So many reactionary nerds here. Yes, it may turn to shit. It may not. The result is unknown. What I do know is Firefox has been my browser of choice for two whole decades. Chromium actively is killing adblockers. Firefox right now is not.

If something happens I’ll make a switch. Right now, nothing has.

That’s great! Unfortunately for every one of them there’s 4x more who gladly would

Nothing proves a backup like forcing yourself to simulate a recovery! I like to make one setting change, then make a backup, and then delete everything and try to rebuild it from scratch to see if I can do it and prove the setting change is still there

Exactly right there with the not worrying. Getting started can be brutal. I always recommend people start without worrying about it, be okay with the idea that you’re going to lose everything.

When you start really understanding how the tech works, then start playing with backups and how to recover. By that time you’ve probably set up enough that you are ready for a solution that doesn’t require setting everything up again. When you’re starting though? Getting it up and running is enough

I don’t get it, it’s sus as hell, what’s the scam?

Red 8TB+ are CMR, OP said they’re using 14TB drives, they’re fine

WD Red has always been my go-to, and in the last 8 years of homelabbing I haven’t had a single one fail. Blues and Greens are not build for NAS operations, and you’ll see them fail. Toshibas I haven’t had a single one make it past a year, except for their gaming drives.

If you want the shortcut, the WD Elements usually go on sale at Best Buy regularly, and they’re always a WD Red or White, which will also work. All of my drives have been one of those. You just shuck the internal drive out of the enclosure
