Just imagine what they could come up with in the future. A female captain? A black station commander? No way, Star Trek has gone down the gutter. I'm not watching TNG. They can stick their wokeness where the sun don't shine.

Or, bear with me, just send a massive amount of spam mails to leaked mailing lists. Maybe 1 in a million reacts and you scam them (cfr all the "Nigerian prince" scams.

A looooot less work because the victim's will contact you themselves. No need to go and "compare which phones show up together and them figure out why they were together and then figure out if it was an affair or not and then contact them in the hopes they care enough to pay ransom"

I guess your username makes sense.

Yeah, no. I should have put some hyphen I guess.

Opera chat-tabs. Opera has a sidebar for chat clients (eg messenger, WhatsApp, telegram,...) built-in. It works really well and is prettier than the Vivaldi implementation. Still sticking with Vivaldi though

Try it out. It's a sidebar that allows you to put all kinds of websites and tools in small pop-out windows.

A less visually appealing, but much more powerful version of the opera chat sidebar.

I've tried to get something similar in Firefox, but nothing comes even close.

Built-in functions >>> addons any day of the week.

(cfr mouse gestures)

Fair enough :)

[–] Firipu@startrek.website 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Yeah, OK. So how do you judge if you can or can't see the corner safely? Is that your own judgment? Or does every red light have a sign saying you can or cannot make a right? Genuinely curious.

I agree you can safely make a right turn on a red light depending on the local situation, it just sounds like it would be filled with exceptions for safety reasons. Hence the "don't cross a red light ever" feels much simpler and safer?

  • Proprietary, yes, from a Foss pov it's not good I guess

  • Owned by ex opera ppl: that's a good thing tbh. Old opera was fantastic. New opera is more fishy after they were acquired by a Chinese group.

There is a lot of browser love in Vivaldi tbh. They are very open and transparent. Haven't found a single red flag about Vivaldi (aside from not being FOSS, which for me isn't a red flag per se)

They even run their own Mastodon servers for their community ;)

I don't use brave, but I use Vivaldi.

The main reason for me is native mouse gestures. They are so much better than addon mouse gestures.

And speed dials. Addon ones are okayish, but I prefer the Vivaldi implementation.

If Firefox would ever ass native mouse gestures, I would swap in an instant. Until then, no can do :(

Wtf? Why is that even allowed in the US? Never seen that in the EU or any other country I've driven a car in. Red is red, it's like an impenetrable wall. No passing under no circumstance. Simple, easy, safe, everyone knows.

It literally takes 1h max, and the majority is done automagically. Setting them up is the least annoying part of it all...

Lol, did you really compare same sex attraction to pedophiles there? "I don't understand both"... Wtf dude.

That is one cool mural. A few of them are totally new to me, cool
