I love Mullvad. You don't see them in any ads (No "this video is brought to you by Mullvad VPN") and you can pay them any way you'd like... Including cash!

I live in a rural area, so I've not seen any VPN ads IRL. I wasn't aware they had real world ads. Thanks for letting me know!

That's a turn off for some and I get why they did it

I don't understand. I mean I see why not having port forwarding would turn someone off from going with Mullvad, but I understand Mullvad's rationale for doing so.

Tesla is recalling its Cybertruck for the fourth time to fix problems with trim pieces that can come loose and front windshield wipers that can fail | The new recalls each affect over 11,000 trucks ( apnews.com )

The company says in the documents that the front windshield wiper motor controller can stop working because it’s getting too much electrical current. A wiper that fails can cut visibility, increasing the risk of a crash. The Austin, Texas, company says it knows of no crashes or injuries caused by the problem....

It's fine, just keep it in Car Wash mode all the time 😎

Idk even the more egregious defects usually don't get discovered this close to launch. The accelerator petal debacle should not have happened to begin with. It's a solved technology!

And zero sidewalks... You may be lucky and have a gutter or shoulder to walk on, but mostly you'll walk on the street itself.

If you do find sidewalks, either people will be using them for parking, let vegetation grow over them, or are so broken up that if you were to walk on them you would break your ankles.

This is my town, at least. I live close to work and could easily walk that, but the town doesn't care about their sidewalks and it is a bit of a dangerous walk. So, I just drive.

No, I suspect the mailman would be driving instead

Were they using cryptocurrency? Maybe that's how they thought they could get away with it. The article doesn't say

I'm 1983 and I barely remember anything from the 80s aside from kindergarten

I guess you could say I was bootstrapped in the 80s and formed in the 90s

Microsoft Edge nags users with a 3D banner to change Windows 11's default browser ( www.windowslatest.com )

Would you use Edge as your default browser on Windows 11 if Microsoft nags you with a 3D banner? Microsoft thinks you would. In a new experiment, which appears to be rolling out to Edge stable on Windows 11, Microsoft has turned on a banner that uses 3D graphics to promote the browser....

If you have to ask, it's not for you. It's for retro PC enthusiasts

DannyMac ,
@DannyMac@lemm.ee avatar

Yes, obviously. You know, I wonder how many instances of Windows 95 you can simultaneously emulate on an Android smartphone? The point is this is for retro PC enthusiasts/hobbyists. For many, emulation just isn't the same experience as running it on real hardware.

I know, you make valid good points, but people who are interested in purchasing this want to run the software on bare metal.

This is the most depressing, saddening topic Oliver has covered... so far. Even if Democrats win, conservatives won't sleep, it will be Project 2029, 2033, 2037, etc. They will keep chipping away and enshitifying everything little by little while Democrats in power and have free reign when they're back in power. One of the most upsetting things is how Democrats won't do anything to prevent or undo it.

I think the thing to worry about is these corporations centrally controlling this data. With one fell swoop, they can do whatever they want with it. With forums, at least they weren't controlled by one company.

While were at it, is there a way we can also make a joke about dead Palestinian children and Wine? /s

Wait until you have photos spanning from, not only your child, but your cousins' children who are photographed less often. Google can easily match up an infant to the same 10 year old child. Hell, I can barely do that sometimes and have to use context clues to figure out who the infant was.
