I didn't mean "evil" from a morality perspective, but was describing how damaging it is to people's health: https://www.who.int/europe/news/item/04-01-2023-no-level-of-alcohol-consumption-is-safe-for-our-health

That means they'd be even worse off than us in any attempts to go spacefaring, right?

It's-a me...

Since it's already a Pandora's box as it is, at least open-source is the least-worst way to go. All closed-source models are evil(er).

It wasn't her phone that did it:

"Some sort of recording software was used in the car — that in itself is a breach of my privacy," she said.

The lesson is to avoid these services if possible or communicate sensitive info silently/by text when you're not in a trusted vehicle.

Yes, I'm experiencing this through the example comment. Great example, by the way!

True, there's no way to do a clean merge like we can with multiple KeePass password databases... or can we?

By the way, I now use AdNauseam, which is a uBO fork, but I can't find how to access the color grid in your screenshots. Would you happen to know how to get to it?

Are you willing to share what any of these "custom additions" means?

[–] joshchandra@midwest.social 3 points 3 months ago

Interesting. Is there a way to port NoScript settings into uBO?

[–] joshchandra@midwest.social 4 points 3 months ago (5 children)

Interesting, then this is better than NoScript. I'm just a bit rattled by the uBO soft-takedown by Manifest v3 or whatever it was that had happened last year and am concerned about uBO, like, dying or something. What do you think is its future? If it still seems stable enough then I guess I'll drop NoScript for it.

And then on that note, would you be willing to share your settings of the scripts you've deemed comfortable, as a shortcut for other newbs like me who are just getting on board with all this? It'd be much appreciated if so! Either way, thanks for sharing.
