GTA V source code has been leaked.
I imagine with this code the modders are going to make the game greate for next ~5 or more years. SAMP was pretty popular for quite some time

Sign our petition to stop France from forcing browsers like Mozilla's Firefox to censor websites
Ok, it's a freedom and free speech nightmare, but are they stupid or something? They are aiming for the browsers instead of ISPs (and DNSes?)?

As if the tip actually goes to the dashers.

If I'm not happy I should drive for it myself? If you're not happy go change your job
The problem are not the customers, it's the employers.
Also keep that attitude up - people ordering less, driving by themselves because of the expected tips and you end up redundant.

Discord is the same problem for the internet as the Facebook grups were. Its hermetic, the info stays there, its hard to search thus the same problem is being asked over and over. StackOverflow and Reddit strength is that's they are indexed and easy accessed

Reddit Falls Short of Ad Growth Targets Ahead of Likely 2024 IPO
Reply in thread
Reddit was like the StackOverflow for life
..sometimes coding too We're like regressing to friend's or known in person people's opinions, because Internet will be full of bot and sponsored content and opinions. Either way, double money for corporations, sponsored content ->more sales; people not trusting reviews and trying out stuff just to find out it's rubbish ->more sales

I think it would be also cool to have an indicator if the car in front of you has cruise control on

Woah, that vid has 2 minutes of initial intro/sponsor crap.
Ltdw Besides he just reads two articles saying that the failure rate is alarming, cause unknown but also the userbase is over 2 milion people, and doubled since January 2023 where it was around 1 milion. A life expectancy of the satellites are 5 years, so the early editions launched in 2019 should still be operational.
He also said that June magnetic storm that hit the satellites caused 100 milion loss with 40 satellites burned. As there are 4500 starlinks in orbit already, their cost estimates for 11,12 billion USD.
Edit. Spelling

More lightweight = faster and more content on the screen? Nowadays cool looking websites are slow and with 25% margin on both sides.
I feel the same all annoyed for example when doing some extensive search on PC vs mobile. No matter if it's a shopping hunt on ebay or gathering information. On PC i scroll-click 10 links, iterate through them, Ctrl+w the ones being useless and chosing/read betwend the ones left. Something unclear? Double Ctrl+C and deepl pops up with a translation.
5min on PC vs 20min on mobile, where I have to click each link, fight those pop ups and cookies consent, go back, wait anoyingly long 2 second webpage loads and repeat.

Firefox with uBlock - "daily driver" Firefox Focus - just to quick open a link and forget about it not having to close the tab KiwiBrowser - kind of power user browser with all Chrome add-ons available to install, so uBlock and ViolentMonkey work fine.

One issue holding back lemmy
Reddit is/was great, to search a term in Google with your problem/need of advice, and you had a great lecture of people's opinions that had a similar situation as yours. Sure, there could be paid bots or options about some products, but it was a great start to make your own point of view instead of going through dozens of useless bot-written websites being promoted at top of the search results.

Youtube for iOS without ads

And they don't work. I tried uBlock on my IPad Air 2 and no add blocked. PopUpBlocker Strict was also important for me, but also doesn't work. DarkReader seemed to work.
I created a NextDNS account and configured the app, still ads on YouTube in Firefox.
The only two for me that work are Brave and Vivaldi. As I really don't like what Brave does I'll stick with Vivaldi.
iOS is such an uncomfortable and greedy ecosystem...
Edit: Just now I created a piped account and installed Yattee and is it the closest you can get on non-jailbroken iOS?
Here's the configuration https://www.reddit.com/r/Yattee/comments/zedv9x/comment/k2q8p0o/
