The original video showed that just changing the Agent string fixed the "problem", so it has nothing to do with ad blocking.

Early Christmas present for FireFox, yay!

Snap is what finally forced me to explore the vast selection of distros. Mint Linux is working well for me. I do miss Plasma Desktop though.

This reminds me to donate to uBlock Origin. The dev does not accept donations though. I can't imagine a fay without uBlock Origin.

I feel the same too.

I think the merging can be part of the federation process as well. Since I'm going to receive posts from the same server, it can combine these posts and give me back the combined view. There will be some kind of repost ID/link so that the server knows how to combine them.

It's sad that they need to do this. On the brighter side, it sounds like a fun subject. After the war, we may see a lot of pro FPVs from Ukraine, they seem to be very good at both modifying drones and controlling them.

Agree. I don't understand why Amazon thinks this will help, like "hello people, Union is a thing that we're really afraid of, haven't you heard?"

Just another way to say "that 2 million Euros should have been for me".

I'm at the level called "never bothered to try".

Like someone on lemmy once said: tools like this will make the climate situation worse since people can eat what they want and not have to worry about gaining weight. The drug is certainly going to help a specific group of patients but it's very likely that it'll be abused.

Same here. I still prefer single narrator. There are a few cases when there are just too many characters but it's still much easier to listen to than multiple narrators.

I have also noticed sound effects in audiobooks. I like it at the end/start of a chapter, but it need to be subtle. I listened to Fractal Noise, which has audio effect for the thumbing sound, very quiet at the beginning but turned very loud at the end of the book. While it's new and interesting at the beginning, I quickly grew tired of it. I'd rather only the narrator reading the book than hearing the sound effect.

I think it's a matter of imagination. Reading/listening for me is not only about the story but also about my imagination. The sound effects removes this, sadly, despite the huge effort by the team.

Try Paint.net. Layers, transparency, filters and even plugins. It's free to download from their website. Install from Windows Store does have cost as a way to donate.
