Reporting back, you were absolutely correct. Hardware acceleration was turned back on, and turning it off fixed the problem.

I’ll give it a shot. I don’t use flatpaks, but I think I’ve already disabled hardware acceleration for a previous issue? I’ll report back once I’ve checked/tried it out.

Nope, just uBlock. If I disable uBlock before loading the page everything works fine as well, so I’m pretty sure it’s uBlock.

But I’m on Linux (openSuse Tumbleweed) and have had some interesting “distro specific” bugs in recent months, so I’m chalking it up to “my OS + Firefox” and not “uBlock”

Mine isn’t working flawlessly with this exact set up, but it’s just forcing me to refresh the page every time I load a new video. Still no ads.

This is me with EU5. I’ve sunk so many hours into EU4 that I know I could get lost in EU5, and I don’t want to enter the time vortex.

You can see the ‘more wet’ spot where the wagging tail was thumping the deck

I got to that chapter in the book (Chapter 10) and had to set the book down for a while. Not because it blew my mind or “expanded my understanding of reality”, but because I though I might understand what he meant and knew that absolutely couldn’t be the case.

The first 6 - 8 chapters are genuinely a great read, do a great job explaining all of the ‘basics’ of black holes at a level that most people can understand.

Discovered this song back in February, and it still gets stuck in my head at least once a month. 10/10 ear worm, would recommend.

Absolutely agree.

From what I understand of out pilot, most of what the users ended up using it for was pregenerating scripts that are effectively “copy > paste > tweak” dozens if not hundreds of times but can’t be automated for one reason or another and then quickly checking the script for errors, as opposed to your pm/eng use cases, but I believe your sentiment holds true.

I don’t use LLMs because I personally do not like them, so I don’t really know where someone might think they fit best inside a workflow. But I can very easily see my self spending half an hour trying to get the perfect result by prompting rather than spend 10 minutes doing it myself because I tend to basically put on blinders once I start a task.

I don’t use AI tools when I code (my work IDE is way too old & I prefer it that way), but elsewhere where I work they did a pilot of people trying Cursor for a number of months.

What they found was that it was useful as a first step in the process, but almost always required being checked by hand afterwards. Another thing was that “code efficiency” changes fell between 10% faster and 30% slower, averaging overall ~20% slower. But almost all participants reported feeling like they’d improved by 20% faster. It made them feel like they were working faster than they were, even though it seems to have been actively hindering them.

Just weighing in as a reformed Marvel fan and lifelong Star Wars fan: I started keeping local copies of that shit almost a decade ago and recommend to anyone I know to do the same. You never know when a streaming company might decide that it is no longer worth the bandwidth to host it, or if the rights will be transferred to a new service that I won’t already have (i.e. all ot them). If you genuinely enjoy almost any media in the modern era you need to have a local copy, because if you don’t some corporate entity may just decide to make it lost media on a whim because it becomes only moderately profitable.

I’ve only ever owned Android, but I was playing over a decade ago. Might just be misremembering, or might predate it’s addition.

I used to play this game so much in high school. Like, for at least an hour a day (when I should have been paying attention in class). Never had an undo button, made it to 16384 once. I have never even considered using a snaking pattern, I always did one side & top (so all rows increased or decreased in the same direction, as opposed to in alternating direction). That is so smart.

Pro: The game recieves multiple years of continued bug support & content releases

Con: $500 for EU4
