Good. They stole this man’s life. The evidence that exonerated him was available to the people involved with his protection 30 years ago. Insane that it took this long.

This stuff just makes my blood boil. Those 3 assholes on the parole board are complete sociopaths. There’s absolutely no justice here.
If you’re on Android and use Firefox, you can use the Disable JavaScript extension to disable JS on sites with paywalls, like NYtimes. While not perfect, it works remarkably well.
Also works great on Desktop.
There’s this: https://github.com/iBicha/playlet
But I haven’t quite figured out how to use it yet.
Huh, I thought Teddit was dead due to the apicalypse. Glad to see it’s still kicking.
And nothing of value was lost.
I’ve installed the Android version of Firefox on my wife’s Chromebook via the Google Play store. There’s also a way to enable Linux within ChromeOS and install the more full fledged version of FF.

I set up a streaming radio station with a looped recording of my cat purring. She died in 2018. This way she’d always be purring somewhere in the ether.
Miss you, Choupie.
"Inadvertently, during the state account’s reconfiguring process, the default setting of ‘zero draft email’ was chosen,” a DOC spokesperson told The Appeal. “This was simply a technical/technician mistake and once realized, it was corrected.”
While the ability to save drafts was restored, the damage was already done. Securus told The Appeal that the deleted drafts were not recoverable. “The e-message draft option is not intended for long term storage,” a Securus spokesperson added in an email to The Appeal.
Wow. Any tech can make a mistake, but this is why you make backups beforehand. This was completely avoidable or at least reversible. And then to have such a douchy response, and even try to shift the blame? That just adds insult to injury.
Their OLED panels are top notch, so don’t sleep on it. Just get a separate streaming device as the experience on Roku, Android TV and Apple TV is just miles better.
ublock origin is still one step ahead of them (at least on firefox) but you may need to go into the extension settings and purge then update all your filter lists.

Nice, thanks!
Irish, actually. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zorin_OS
I’ll add another option that is great for people trying out Linux for the first time (though it’s great for seasoned Linux folks, too): ZorinOS. It’s based on Ubuntu LTS, but has a few beginner friendly options and features straight out of the box. Note that there is an optional “pro” version if you like to support development, but it’s completely optional.
I’d say in this case the premium is justified and worth it if you can afford it. You’re getting a top of the line, repairable & upgradeable, Linux friendly, esthetically pleasing laptop with excellent documentation, filling a void that simply wasn’t there just a few short years ago. Also, if they reach critical mass and adoption, prices might come down.
After dragging my feet for years I finally moved back to Firefox a few weeks ago. Sure, there’s a few features I miss from Chrome/Edge (vertical tabs, PWA support, tab groups, etc.) but I was able to ‘fix’ many issues with extensions and a custom userchrome.css, and trust is ultimately more important to me.
I’m thankful there are still free, open, privacy respecting options out there.
It’ll be the final nail. Traffic to the site will plummet because the vast majority of users will not want to pay and search engines like Google will no longer be able to index links to tweets, which of course will drive away the remaining advertisers. This is another disastrous move in a relentless string of bad moves by big brain musk. I have to admit that it really starts to look like he’s doing this on purpose. Anyone with more than 2 brain cells should see this coming, even an idiot like musk.
In our hyper connected world with nest door bells, web cams and motion detectors everywhere the odds always were astronomically against this guy. I’m amazed he managed to stay on the lam for as long as he did, even more amazed he survived his capture.
My guess is the graph of number of successful escapes is pointing down over time.
Perhaps you moved from Europe to the States in the interim like I did.
Edit to add: sorry if this came off as snarky, was not my intention. Just wanted to point out that it’s not always so clear-cut. I created my Reddit account in 2008 when I lived in the Netherlands. Then I moved to the US in 2016 and became a citizen in 2019.
