I cancelled back on the first price hike they did. Just wasn’t enough for the handful of times I used it per year. They had me at the point where I kinda didn’t care I was paying, but the price hike gave me a wake up call. Since then they’ve continued to up the prices and I’ve continued to not give a shit. Netflix originally won me back from bothering to pirate stuff cause it was so good and easy, now the opposite is true in the streaming space.

First name that came to mind when I saw the thread title. His new Weird Stuff in a Can episode was a fun journey.

I cancelled my sub after I kept getting bombarded by some Michelle Obama podcast/book thing. Popped up so many times over the course of a week that I just yolo’d out and went with Youtube Premium (which gives Youtube Music as part of the deal).

Stefan Milo - Been really enjoying his videos “digging” into archaeology and pre-history.

A recent food discovery (Well within the last year) I made was Charlie Anderson highly recommend his series on creating NY style pizza.

To test it you can just put it into the browser console (F12), but adding it to an instance will require it to be added to a javascript file that’s loaded and run on page open.

It’s not the most ideal way of removing the feature, but it depends on what you’re needing your instance to do. If it’s just a personal instance, then I guess you could just run this line via a browser extension such as Greasemonkey, which would remove it in your client browser (not on the instance itself).

This will hide the button from display so it cannot be clicked on.

document.querySelector("[data-tippy-content='upload image']").style.display = "none";

Hide for 30 days is not the option I want YouTube. I blocked them on desktop and have trained my brain to ignore them as I use the iOS app.

Us (humans) vs. Them (aliens)

I both do and do not want to check that out.

Reading through the article it sounds like not a great study, not asking enough questions and not tracking key information, such as cause of death.

Sounds like one of those things where people are going to headline what they want out of it and use it to champion their bias. “Being overweight doesn’t kill you, yay!” Nah, it’s way more complicated than that. People with cancer and other diseases often lose weight, a lot of it, and studies like this don’t do a good job of tracking this info.

I did web design in the 90’s and remember one customer reviewing the site that I’d designed her. She said she liked it, but asked if I could add something like that neat little paper clip she has when she opens up Word, so it can help people navigate her site.

Note: Javascript was in its early days around this time so the idea of a dynamic/interactive site like this was not on the cards.

Needs a shocked looking face in the corner like something explosive just went off downstairs.

Oh yeah, I think it was RES for Reddit that supported opening links to new tabs. So much easier than middle clicking on links (because I often forget and end up closing the tab).

Nope. Once the announcement was made about the blackout I found Lemmy, removed Reddit from my favourites, abandoned Apollo and closed the chapter.

That’s not food. That’s sadness in polystyrene.

I’ve seen it talked about a few times across different platforms (Hackernews) where people have pondered the idea of cloning old posts, keeping the poster name but to a non-existent account. Acting as both a way to populate a community and archive content away from Reddit’s control.

I haven’t seen any examples of this done yet, not sure if anyone has.

Because some of us saps don’t have a phone capable of iOS 16+ which is what Mlem is targeting. Memmy runs great.

Running the Memmy update today with dark mode and I had moments where my brain thought I was scrolling through Apollo. Gonna be very happy with the app if it continues down this route.
