I made filters with uBlock Origin that block out from Lemmy (and some other sites) any post containing one of the words “Trump”, “Elon”, “Musk”, “RFK Jr”, “maga”, or “nazi”.
You still stay mostly up-to-date because that shit has a way of filtering through anyways, but you cut out 90% of the redundant fluff. I originally set the filters up in November when I was feeling very similar to how I imagine you felt when you made this post.
I think the screenshot is from their friend’s account, to show us what kinds of games they’ve already played? Wasn’t super clear to me either though
It says you’re bound by “opening and using” the product, rather than “opening or using”. Have someone else open it for you. Then neither of you have done both.
When they plaster that “If everyone reading this donated $x.yz right now, we’d be done within the hour” message I’ll usually donate exactly the amount it says.

I’m in firefox + uBlock on lemmy.world too, and it works fine for me - I can see on my current front page 2 posts are being blocked and the rest are showing up. Do you have any other uBlock filters going on? Are you on some page other than the lemmy.world homepage? Are you using the default UI or one of the alternate UIs?
What an insightful post 🙂
The only one of these I’ve updated since the original is the one for Ars Technica, which is now this:
arstechnica.com##:not(:not(head>title:has-text(/Serving the Technologist/))) article:has-text(/Trump|Elon|Musk|nazi|doge|maga/i)
The reason being that ‘Ars Technica’ now appears in the title of articles, while it didn’t originally, which caused the original filter to block out entire articles. ‘Serving the Technologist’ only appears on the homepage so this updated filter will still filter the homepage but display the contents of articles that contain blacklisted words.
Or averages, it seems to be absolute counts each day
Good to know that’s the default. I do definitely see prompts that have “Reject all”, plus some banners that only have “Accept all” and “Cookie settings”, with “Reject all” or “Necessary cookies only” only visible in the cookie settings. Thanks.
I tried out the 8B deepseek and found it pretty underwhelming - the responses were borderline unrelated to the prompts at times. The smallest I had any respectable output with was the 12B model - which I was able to run, at a somewhat usable speed even.
Fair, I didn’t realize that. My GPU is a 1060 6 GB so I won’t be running any significant LLMs on it. This PC is pretty old at this point.
I have 16 GB of RAM and recently tried running local LLM models. Turns out my RAM is a bigger limiting factor than my GPU.
And, yeah, docker’s always taking up 3-4 GB.
Firefox now includes safeguards to prevent sites from abusing the history API by generating excessive history entries, which can make navigating with the back and forward buttons difficult by cluttering the history. This intervention ensures that such entries, unless interacted with by the user, are skipped when using the back and forward buttons.
Nice
He’s saying they’re wrong for not currently being open.
15 is the percent of the tip, not the percent increase in tip income over the last decade. If the tip percentage stays constant, then the tip amount rises in direct proportion to the food cost. The fair comparison is rent increase vs. restaurant food price increase. The data I found indicates rent’s gone up at an average of 4% per year in the last decade, and that restaurant food prices have risen by a similar amount - anywhere from 3-7% depending on the industry.
Everyone is struggling. It is not unique to servers. And I do tip - just a reasonable 15%. If a server is struggling to get by on 15% tips, they should harass their boss and their senator, not their customers who are likely struggling as well.
I’m punishing them by giving them what was until 10 years ago considered an excellent and standard tip?
Not to mention that servers are, as a general group, extremely opposed to dismantling the tip system as a whole. My complaint wasn’t about raised food prices, which the owner would be in control of - it was about raised tipping percentage expectations. I refuse to contribute to the steadily rising expectation of how much a tip should be, and regret my past contributions to that trend.
Back when 15% was considered standard I liked tipping closer to 30%, but as a direct result of the push to try to make 15% seem low I no longer tip more than 15%.
Hey thanks. I just made $2.86! And my mom is owed $1.44!
I think this is the first time I’ve seen someone bring up Dunning-Kruger to comfort someone rather than insult them
