gothicdecadence,

If you use browser extensions like Ghostery and AdNauseam it’ll click on blocked ads in the background, essentially giving Google fake info. After I started using extensions like that my survey questions have been all over the place, and I’ll answer them in a way that feels potentially accurate but is actually 100% false and irrelevant to me lol. So I get money, falsify their info, and block ads and trackers all at the same time, it’s perfect!

gothicdecadence,

I love that, Zabes has such cool girl energy lol

gothicdecadence,

Not who you asked but I’m in the desert area of SoCal, it’s usually super dry (15-30% unless cloudy) and it’s been consistently over 100 for a few weeks now. One of the absolute best things about California is that it always cools off at night, down into to the low 60s most of the summer and 70s during the peak. It can be really hard to dress for sometimes, especially since the sun is so much hotter here than other states I’ve been to. 105 with a real feel higher than that during the day, maybe 62 with a breeze at night, that’s a huge temp variance lol. I appreciate it though, it could be like other places in the country and the world where it’s not getting below 80 at night.

The most humid places in Cali are also usually much cooler, due to being near the beach. But it kinda comes out in the wash depending on the day haha. Most of my knowledge is SoCal though, NorCal might be a lot different. California is massive, with tons of different climates, so it’s impossible to talk about it without being specific about locations.

gothicdecadence,

StartAllBack is good but I personally use and prefer Start11

Is there a way to hide porn from my All feed without hiding all NSFW content?

Just wondering if this is possible. Don’t get me wrong, I have no issue with porn being on the site, but the fact that posts like “watch my fuck hole being filled” with graphic videos of a femboy fucking themself with a dildo is showing up on the home feed of this site makes it hard for me to recommend it to anyone, let...

gothicdecadence,

Using Sync, which just released, you can filter instances you don’t wanna see. I did the same with lemmynsfw lol

gothicdecadence,

I would love if there was a way to add multiple anonymous instances to quickly switch between! My main account is on lemmy.world but if there was a way to browse beehaw without an account I would appreciate it

gothicdecadence,

I’ll probably do that in the meantime, good idea!

gothicdecadence,

Great! That’ll be awesome for the two people that bought it

gothicdecadence,

It would be adorable if it wasn’t dangerous :/ they use the founding fathers and constitution in the same way they use Jesus and the Bible - as a reason to hurt others and stop progress

gothicdecadence,

Meh, while I totally get what you’re saying I think there’s something to be said about these stepping stones between dying closed source platforms and developing FOSS platforms. Especially since most content people are used to and want to engage with is on said platforms. Not everyone wants to jump onto new platforms with learning curves, but this is an in-between for the people gaining awareness.

That, and having a fundamental disagreement with the way a platform is run or what telemetry they harvest doesn’t mean I don’t like the content there. Social media has been a constant battle between the owners, the content creators, and the regular users. At the end of the day people use it for community and connection, even if venture capitalists are hell bent on destroying their product.

gothicdecadence,

I’m tired of hearing that optimism is dangerous.

I’m tired of hearing that pessimism is dangerous.

Nothing matters and we’re all gonna die. That’s just how it is. Do your best, eat the rich, make some noise - or don’t and live a comfortable life while you still can.

Hearing narratives like this just leads to inaction. Nobody wants to act when they have no hope.

gothicdecadence,

I completely agree with you friend. We’re not helpless - we can do things here and there and build skills - but we’re also just a tiny cog in a massive machine that doesn’t stop even if we do. It’s a weird thing, trying to do harm reduction and lifestyle changes (which I am too) while also knowing it doesn’t change much. There’s a friction, a cognitive dissonance, that I think is hard for most people paying attention and trying to be good people nowadays.

I do value truth and realism over tenuous hope though, so yes the more accurate the models the better. I just see so many different narratives about how we’re “supposed” to feel about climate change and I personally think that causes emotional stasis regarding activism. I know I certainly struggle with that.

And? People get sick from other airborne illnesses too, no person or company should ever be able to prevent someone from doing something that protects their body from injury. Banning masks, bathroom breaks, water breaks, etc, it’s all the same shit fucking sandwhich

gothicdecadence,

Lol I use it sometimes when Firefox and my several installed add-ons don’t play nice with a website, it’s easier than troubleshooting

JWST finds ‘smoking gun’ evidence of early galaxies transforming the universe (lemmy.world)

Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), an international team of astronomers has found compelling evidence that early galaxies were responsible for the reionization of the early universe. This is the process by which neutral hydrogen atoms are ionized, making the universe transparent to light at wavelengths that would have...
