By design, WebExtensions is more limited than the promiscuous extension mechanism. By design, it also works better. Most of the Firefox development tax has disappeared, as only the WebExtensions API needs to be protected, rather than the entire code of Firefox. Most of the maintenance tax has disappeared, as the WebExtensions API are stable (there have unfortunately been a few exceptions). It is also much simpler to use, lets add-on developers share code between Firefox and Chromium add-ons and should eventually make it easier to write extensions that work flawlessly on Desktop and Mobile.

Limp Bizkit - My Generation [03:40 | Rap, Rock, In English, USA, Rap-Rock, Metal, Alternative Metal, Nu-Metal]^[1]

[Pre-Chorus]

So go ahead and talk shit, talk shit about me

Go ahead and talk shit about my g-g-generation^[2]

The 3rd track off Limp Bizkit’s 2000 Album “Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water”. In this song, Fred talks about generation x, his generation which at the time was criticised by the media for being violent and disoriented.

And we will continue to support them 100% of the way, so as to keep the duopoly and the status quo of supporting genocides all over the world.

More forever wars where the working class continue to be killed off, while the owner-class and their lackeys rake in their profits and natural resources.

Sadly, not the only billionaire pushing for more surveillance.

Another big one is Peter Thiel.

“Neither major candidate was able to make serious commitments to our union to ensure the interests of working people are always put before Big Business,” Teamsters General President Sean O’Brien said in a statement.

He added, “We sought commitments from both [former president Donald] Trump and [Vice President Kamala] Harris not to interfere in critical union campaigns or core Teamsters industries—and to honor our members’ right to strike—but were unable to secure those pledges.”

The Teamsters, which represents truck drivers, freight workers and others, held similar meetings with Trump and President Joe Biden when he was still seeking re-election.

On Wednesday, the union released the results of their survey, which was conducted after Biden dropped out of the race. It found that almost 60% of rank-and-file union members preferred to endorse Trump, while 34% backed Harris, according to an electronic member poll. A phone poll indicated similar margins, with 58% supporting Trump and 31% supporting Harris.

“While the Teamsters Executive Board is making no formal endorsement, the hardworking members of the Teamsters have been loud and clear— they want President Trump back in the White House!” said campaign spokesperson Karoline Leavitt in a statement. “These hardworking men and women are the backbone of America and President Trump will strongly stand up for them when he’s back in the White House.”^[1]

Forgot about Obama…

Kamala is Hillary Clinton 2.0, a status quo warmonger, and does the bidding of the owner-class, like all of the politicians in the duopoly.

Edit: improved sentence structure

Like all websites, there are fake ones and then there are official ones.

Many will be clones of what the original website looked like.

Wrong question and framing.

Israel’s goal is not to get rid of Hamas or their leadership.

Their real goal has been to continue the genocide of the Palestinian people so as to take 100% control of the Palestinian land and to kickout the natives.

Not tagged NSFW and wrong community.

Good luck in life, hope all is well!

Harris or Trump, we will continue to fund Israel and support them until the end.

In the duopoly debate, they were trying to show off who supports Israel the most.

Trump: “She hates Israel, she wouldn’t even meet with Netanyahu…”

Harris: “That’s absolutely not true, I have my entire career and life supported Israel”

Awesome!

It seems like Russiagate comes every four years.

IMO: Another more important Russian one is keeping up with the trial of the Uhuru III taking place in Tampa, Florida.

Now “far-left” and “far-right” groups are involved in Russiagate trials.

Interesting, that is a lot of blocking, and it seems like a really small pool of certain types of people and information!

You know what you only want to see; thanks for sharing your views on the matter.

English: Duane W. Roller (2010, p. 134) provides a description of this papyrus document from late Ptolemaic Egypt, dated to the reign of Cleopatra VII:

In February 33 B.C. she approved an order granting certain tax exemptions to Publius Canidius Crassus, who had been with Antonius for a decade and would be senior commander of the land forces at Actium. The relevant document is a papyrus recovered from mummy wrappings and first published in the year 2000. Canidius was allowed to import 10,000 artabas of wheat and 5,000 amphoras of wine tax free, and the lands that he owned in Egypt were also exempt. What has excited interest is the subscript in a different hand: γινέσθωι (“make it happen”). There is little doubt that this is the writing of the queen herself, as there was a tradition in Ptolemaic Egypt of countersigning by the monarch, in part to avoid forgery of official documents. This autograph of Cleopatra VII certainly is one of the more exciting discoveries of recent years: the only other known royal autographs from antiquity are of Ptolemy X and Theodosios II, both somewhat less interesting than the queen. The document also indicates the dichotomy that still existed at the very end of the Ptolemaic era between the rulers (and their Roman allies) and the ruled, where the former continued to obtain special privileges.

Kleopatra The Great

How accurate is the Roman writers’ portrayal of Kleopatra as an immoral, tragic queen of Egypt? In a fascinating penultimate lecture of the season, acclaimed Egyptologist Professor Joann Fletcher took us back in time to the Ptolemaic dynasty and explored the captivating history from Alexander the Great to the last ruler of Egypt: Kleopatra the Great.^[1]

Please, let’s not get into this habit of creating communities without having any clear purpose. It only makes things look even deader than they already are.

TIL, people follow that rule.

I try to keep my communities active, not sure you can say that about the others though.

hahaha, interesting, thanks for the questions!

do we really a whole community for that?

Why not.

It is just another new community like many on lemmy.

What do you want to talk about it there?

People can talk about SponsorBlock and the like.

TIL, cool for them.

I use other YT forks and systems that already implement similar techniques even if they are “good” or “bad” ads.

I am also for Sailing the High Seas.

We have a difference in opinion on this matter, but thanks for the small chat and the link!

This is the section you are talking about:

SponsorBlock

This year, a developer worked on implementing support for SponsorBlock in NewPipe. SponsorBlock is a crowd-sourced database listing sponsored sections in videos, which are automatically skipped by clients such as web browsers, using extensions.

While SponsorBlock’s implementation apparently takes care to preserve user privacy (you can, e.g., download the entire database for offline use, and its regular querying system is also well made), it targets an ethical advertising system. Its purpose is to help users, who probably don’t realise that sponsorship is one of the most ethical ways to fund their favorite content, automatically skip sponsored sections of videos.

Morally, it’s a very questionable system. Of course, some sponsoring may be of little relevance to the user, or maybe even intrusive or hidden. But SponsorBlock doesn’t differentiate between ethical and unethical advertisements. It just skips all kinds of sponsored sections.

That’s not your opinion.

Okay.

Not all ads are invasive soul seeking tracking nightmares

Ads are ads; it doesn’t matter if they are “good” or “bad,” unless you want to watch them like most people do because they don’t mind or they don’t know how to block them.

no, there are not “many ways” for content creators to do that full-time.

If they do not get the engagement or funds they need, they will either paywall or find other ways to support themselves; or they will just not make it on YouTube or streaming, like many people before them, unless they continue to fight on while learning and failling.

This reminds me of some small business talks; it is a harsh capitalistic world; you give up or keep trying.

I still say grassroots funding and support is the way to go if they are just doing it for the hobby or for what they believe.
