It WAS much better when I switched to Firefox. Here is what it looked like with Sync internal browser.

Edit: that photo doesn't even tell half the story. The jump to recipe button didn't work, because the ads janked up the spacing and every 30 seconds the page would jump around as ads reloaded. Completely unreadable.

Sometimes I feel bad about blocking the ads, because content creators do need to pay the bills and I am depriving them of a revenue stream when I visit. But what the fuck, shit like this just makes it impossible.

Holy shit that site is bad. Do my ad blockers even do anything?

Well, they would know wouldn't they.

Adam Conover just did a video on mega mergers and Ticketmaster was prominently featured. I thought it was pretty well done, but hope you like the guy because he takes his personality to 11 on this one.

Fuck these monopoly fucks.

It's people like this that deserve America's health care bills.

Sorry, I don't have a lot of insight into which one may be most accurate. But unfortunately, they may all be bad.

This is REALLY cool and helpful. I just tried it with the 3 accounts I have and it worked flawlessly.

Only suggestion would be to have the app check a servers defederated list and disregard any communities that you cannot subscribe too. This would prevent a lot of errors that happen when going through the sync. This is pretty minor as the app does seem to skip the community after the error but I suspect it would be a little faster if it just rejectected the community via internal software. Some users who are not aware of defederated communities may get confused by the errors as well.

Maybe this isn't very realistic? If it isn't, never mind. :)

Windows 7 was peak Windows. They smoothed out all the problems of Vista (plus hardware caught up to the recommended specs) and all the new tech that Vista introduced matured a bit. Was one of the nicest looking operating systems they ever released too - though that is highly subjective.

Everything after has introduced some form of garbage in it's iteration. Windows 8 had a garbage tablet interface that sucked when used with keyboard/mouse. Like the majority of devices that it was installed on. Windows 10 rolled back some of those shit changes but was the version Microsoft started implementing their adware. Windows 11 took it to 11 and put in a bunch of hardware requirements that conveniently required you to dump some money into Intel hardware.

Been running Linux for last six months and it is crazy how much better it runs. It isn't as cumbersome to use as the old days... But every once in a while I run into something that requires Googling and tweaking in Terminal. It's been my best experience with the OS though going back to WAY back (Mandrake and Slackware days - or are they still around? Early 2000's maybe???)

Thanks, I'll try that out when I get home.

You might try making one small change in the way you tie your shoe and you will find you rarely have them come undone.

Yes, there is a Ted Talk for tieing shoes.

I'm sure he wants to write the competency test as well. I wouldn't count on it to be fair.

You like to think they were terrified right before? Kind of dark.
