Stop teaching people how to scream, please.

Could have just used class E addresses, at least then it would look intentional insead of brainless.

It says in the description that this is a version with minimal changes that exists because uBlock is not available in China. It looks like the source is located here: https://codeberg.org/lanticy/cBlock

I wouldn't use it if you have the ability to use the original uBlock, but if you have no other choice, this looks plausable.

I say it should be illegal to incorporate the word "snow" in the names of things that are not white.

People were never apart to begin with, even if some power hungry pricks want you to believe otherwise.

We all live on the same planet, have roughly the same needs and wishes. Languages and cultures may be different, but under the hood we are all the same.

It's a bit sad how everybody talk about the new NTsync. Most games, like, 90% of them, are not bound by sync. You would get exactly no performance benefit in them. What's better about it is the correctness of the implementation, more programs will work under WINE as a result of switching to NTsync. It's a good thing, but media clearly seems to miss the point and only focus on a few cases where it would give an impressive performance benefit.

If someone didn't learn enough trigonometry in school:

1+tan^2^c = cos^2^c/cos^2^c + sin^2^c/cos^2^c = (cos^2^c + sin^2^c)/cos^2^c = 1/cos^2^c;

sqrt(1/cos^2^c) = |sec c|

And here is for the people who still don't get the jokeThe reading of the answer is very similar to the word "sexy", which makes the whole sentence a reference to the song "Sexy and I Know It" by LMFAO.

The divisability rule for 7 is that the difference of doubled last digit of a number and the remaining part of that number is divisible by 7.

E.g. 299'999 → 29'999 - 18 = 29'981 → 2'998 - 2 = 2'996 → 299 - 12 = 287 → 28 - 14 = 14 → 14 mod 7 = 0.

It's a very nasty divisibility rule. The one for 13 works in the same way, but instead of multiplying by 2, you multiply by 4. There are actually a couple of well-known rules for that, but these are the easiest to remember IMO.

The problem is, in my opinion, that they post memes that are clerly provoking non-vegan people for discussion.

It's weird to jump under a "here are my 15 ways of cooking asparagus" post with anti-vegan content. But "look at these carnovorous clowns" memes are clearly offensive.

I'm looking for a website that aggregates specs for gamepads/controllers.

For example, for VR headsets we have VRcompare.

Does anything similar exist for gamepads?

They are probably just using your IP address to determine the location. That will show the location of your ISP, not your location. That's not much more info than any other server gets when you are connecting to it. Also does not require Mozilla to send any geolocation data.

Good advice! (lemmy.ca)

It's just a domain name, it has nothing to do with sites being safe. Just as any other site, they may be malicious, may be not, depends on who runs the site.
