Ah fair point

Thanks! I’ll have to check this out

Wonder what the weight rating is on these. Some UPS can get pretty heavy.

If you’re gonna release a new standard, may as well have the headroom for future growth so it’s not outdated too soon in the future.

HOLY CRAP! I have a picture of my kid posing with this rabbit from when we visited SF a while back. The rabbit was hanging out in courtyard of the hotel we stayed at. He even still has the same hat!

Or Reddit

Corrected the mistake, thanks.

This is a very well written an thorough article and I highly recommend reading it. If you don’t want to however, here is a summary of the key points:

• Brendan Eich’s anti-LGBTQ+ political involvement

• • Brendan Eich donated to anti-LGBT political organizations, politicians, and initiatives such as CA Prop 8 which banned same-sex marriages.

• 2016 — Brave Browser promises to replace webpage ads

• • Brave promised to replace ads with privacy friendly ads that would actually pay publishers and even users with a volatile cryptocurrency while keeping a cut for themselves. This never actually came to life and was criticized as “blatantly illegal”.

• 2018 — Brave runs a questionable donation campaign

• • Brave collected donations for popular content creators without actually involving or seeking consent from said creators. In short they accepted donations in crypto for creators, but would only pay out if it reached a minimum value of $100. When called out, Brave said refunds were impossible.

• 2020 — Brave injects referral links when visiting crypto wallets

• • Brave injected their own referral links for services such as Binance without informing users or asking permission.

• 2020 — Brave puts ads in user’s home screens

• • Brave turned their home screen image rotator into a place to serve ads, many of which were suspicious or crypto related.

• 2021 - Brave ships an insecure Tor feature

• • Brave added a Tor feature which exposed users DNS requests

• 2023 - Brave hides their crawlers to websites

• • Brave refuses to disclose their crawler bot to websites since many websites want to block Brave Search. Brave will only chose not to crawl a website if it also blocks Google’s crawler.

• 2024 - So-called “privacy browser” deprecated advanced fingerprinting protection

• • Brave removed a the Strict, Block Fingerprinting privacy feature from their browser.

• And More!

• • Brave paid for targeted ads for users searching for Firefox in the Play Store and ran a campaign to “Forget the Fox”. When called out on this the VP publicly denied it and claimed it was photo-shopped.
• • The VP of Brave, Luke Mulks, frequently posts about all things crypto, from NFTs to FTX, and uses AI-gen images to promote them. He also frequently re-tweets right-wing activists.
• • Brendan Eich’s feed also frequently contains right-wing content and Republican propaganda despite his claims to be “independent”.

Edit: corrected a mistake noted below.

Is this the guy?

Damn that was a quick reply.

Don’t particularly care about the point of your thread.

Simply providing context since you seem to be confused as to why you can’t find a home based on your replies in this thread.

Please understand that “freedom of speech” does not mean that your speech is more important than the next persons. If you decide to start spewing hateful, racist, bigoted shit, the next person has the right to tell you to fuck off and block you, or ban you if it’s their instance. This isn’t treading on your freedom of expression or suppressing your speech, this is simply the other person exercising their right to not have to hear your shit and choosing instead to show you the door.

For example, if you invite someone into your home and they start spouting shit, you have the right to show them the door as you don’t have to listen to them go off in your home and around your guests. Similarly if you’re banned for not following the rules of an instance you’re not “being suppressed” you’re just a cunt.

Want to talk shit from a realm of safety without being called out? Do it from your own home where people don’t have to be around you. Make your own instance, or find a like-minded cesspool willing to put up with you.

Can’t wait to see someone get this to run Doom

Growing up, my neighbor had that on Atari. We could never figure out how the hell to play that game.

Probably was for a high stress, high turnover position where anyone competent and breathing would do.

Agreed. I would love for AOC to get the nomination, but I honestly don’t think she couldn’t this particular election. I think she’s been too polarized by the media and is considered a “radical pick”.

Trolling aside… we could use a young president who gives a shit about the future of this country and the planet.

We also got the worst version of Windows ever, ME. Tho maybe with all the BS they’ve done with 11 that might change.

Kinda I guess. It was about clocks rolling over from 1999 to 2000 and causing a buffer overflow that would supposedly crash all systems everywhere causing the country to come to a hault.
