If corporations are people, they should be bullied.

  • Of course I do, I live in the US.

  • Qobuz

    For anyone checking this thread in the future. Qobuz does seem to be the only one not owned by demons. Deezer's owner was personally sanctioned by Ukraine for his support of the invasion, Spotify pays artists incredibly poorly (and is partially owned by Tencent and Black Rock), Tidal's largest shareholders are investment banks and Black Rock, and Napster is owned in-part by Live Nation.

    Ugh.

  • Heroes get arrested.Villains make billions.

    This is freedom, somehow.

  • I love Libby! I listen to audiobooks with it all the time.

  • Other fun library facts:

    • If you don't like leaving the house, lots of libraries let you sign up for a card online
    • In addition to books, they usually have ebooks and audiobooks online, as well as DVDs and CDs at your local branch
    • You should visit your local library and see if they have other things...some have video games, or kitchen/cooking equipment, there are often classes or presentations, all free
  • You Should Know @lemmy.world

    YSK if you have a library card or are a student, there's a free streaming service called Kanopy

  • What's a Nazi's favorite color smoke?

    White smoke.

    (For all y'all non Catholics, the vatican has white smoke to signal when they elect a new pope...and ya know...JD Vance is a nazi.)

  • Need X-kill replacement.

  • It's so they can track you better. ~If you're in the US and using a Chromium based browser, so long as you don't view "adult content" they usually don't pop this up.~ But they can't track in Firefox, and because of GDPR, they can't track logged-out users in the EU, so it's all about the money. I use Vivaldi and a VPN to watch youtube, works mostly fine.

    EDIT: Well never-fucking-mind...this strategy has worked for me without fail for a lonnnnng time, and today they got me...same day the pulled uBlock origin from the Chrome store...dicks.

  • I've flirted with Linux off and on for 20 years, but MS forcing everyone to Win 11, stuffed with spyware, is the end of the road for me. Now on Linux full time. Linux isn't about to take over the desktop, but I can see Windows shedding a couple million users a year as enshittification continues.

  • Asklemmy @lemmy.ml

    What happens to Firefox forks if Firefox dies?

  • There are so many breaking points:

    • With software it was moving everything to subscriptions that made me switch to Linux and LibreOffice
    • With hardware it was when Apple started soldering RAM in their computers so you couldn't replace it
    • With healthcare it was having to negotiate with 11 different companies my 11 bills for a single ER visit
    • With the Democrats it was the head of the DNC saying out loud that the reason for super delegates was to prevent popular grassroots candidates from winning

    Capitalism doesn't just crush you once, it finds a new way to crush you every day.

  • No, but they can remain solvent longer than you can survive on the streets.

    And that's how they get you.

  • What makes them (it?) good?

    What's the best Firefox-based browser?

  • Just what's in it by default:

  • Linux @lemmy.ml

    How to change Arc Menu icons?

  • You're just jealous of our freedom to choose between different health insurance companies to deny our claims for care and bankrupt us

  • ding ding ding! It's the only option, and I hate it.

  • SOLVED! I had to learn how Cloudflare tunnels work, but 45 minutes later and it's doing exactly what I need, thank you so much, kind internet hero!

  • Note: The ISP is Comcast, who at various points on the web has claimed to block and NOT block :80, but lots of other people online seem to have the same problem, indicating that they do. At least for some people.

  • Self Hosted - Self-hosting your services. @lemmy.ml

    Way to get around ISP blocking port 80

  • I love Fish

  • Wow, this looks really cool! I see a reddit icon on there, but not a Lemmy one...is Lemmy support coming?
