@irfan Can confirm the same thing here — as long as uBlock Origin is active, the tab closes instantly; if I turn it off, I instead get:

@jernej__s @irfan browser plugins sometimes decide to auto-close instead of telling you they're blocking it

this comes up again and again, report it to whatever plugin you use

not informing people is a shite user experience

Four judges and two lawyers in Indonesia have been charged with transacting bribes to issue a favorable ruling for palm oil giants Permata Hijau, Wilmar and Musim Mas in a high-profile corruption case.

Prosecutors allege that the companies funneled up to 60 billion rupiah ($3.57 million) to the judges through intermediaries, avoiding potential fines totaling more than $1 billion.

I like how if you are discussing some large amount of money via text—like, a house price, or a federal grant or something, it doesn't matter—and you write out the number, then no matter what the number is Apple Pay will helpfully pop up and be like Hey! You need to send this cash to someone???

well I’m glad they finally updated it. I finished the game last night and that was my biggest complaint.

oohhh, that's actually pretty hype. Back when I was on Windows I used it all the time, it's Linpack runner was the most reliable way I'd found for exposing an overclock that is not QUITE stable but REALLY looks like it

This is a great example how to use Open Source: Ubisoft does not really earn money with Chroma (and therefore does not lose some with open-sourcing it). But as Open Source many gamers can profit from it, and gaming becomes more inclusive.

(I still don't buy Assassin's Greed.)

Hey fedi, so I have this cheap doohickey for using computers away from a desk. It's got a touch pad and keys and is absolutely the right solution for the problem

But it sucks. The keys start bad and if used too much stop registering reliably, the touch pad ain't great, and it keeps losing connection to the dongle despite it being like 8 feet away

Is there some kind of premium version of these that exists? So far I've only ever seen the terrible dirt cheap ones for sale anywhere

(If you don't mind plz boost for reach I am *desperate*)

EDIT: to be clear the handheld/gamepad-like form factor is what makes this work so a more traditionally keyboard shaped device with an additional trackpad isn't really a suitable replacement

in reply to Muse

I find honesty to be like a good credit score - it opens doors to opportunities.

I tend to hew towards honesty, in part because I'm not good at lying. But I do try to use colored words and phrases to induce a bit of subtle (or not so subtle) leanings - or rather more like flavorings - to things I say or write.

I was surprised (and appalled) when I was on the ICANN board when I was accused of being too honest!!!!

in reply to Muse

For a long time I was pretty rigorously honest. I found that if I told a 'tale' that to me was patently false, others parties would accept it based on my reputation. To be clear I thought I was telling a 'tale' for fun, not deception. Explaining made it worse, not really surprising.
That bit of knowledge goes a long way, if "properly" used, potentially improperly too. I find it easier to remember the truth, rather than recalling a fabrication in detail.

Before you plug in your new Timex/Sinclair 1000, please take a moment to think about this exciting new adventure. We want to assure you that:

1. You will enjoy computing.

2. You will find it easy as well as enjoyable.

3. You shouldn’t be afraid of the computer. You are smarter than it is. So is your parakeet, for that matter.

4. You will make mistakes as you learn. The computer will not laugh at you.

5. Your mistakes will not do any harm to the computer. You can’t break it by pushing the “wrong” button.

6. You are about to take a giant step into the future. Everyone will soon be using computers in every part of their daily lives, and you will have a head start.
