politics @lemmy.world•Kristi Noem literally runs out of House hearing to avoid Dem questions
113·21 hours agoCharge her with contempt then… or something FFS.
Ooo that’s fun. Might have to add that to my site.

11·23 hours agoI wish lemmy instances would consider doing a URL auto-rewrite for x.com -> xcancel.com in general.

News@lemmy.world•For 2nd time, grand jury refuses to indict New York AG Letitia James: Sources
20·23 hours agoThe fact there’s no double-jeopardy (triple? quadruple? Something not infinite at least?!) for indictments astounds me.
Then again it shouldn’t surprise any more – the US system seems to have a billion holes, like swiss-cheese, only left unexploited up until recently because those in power had, maybe, some small shred of shame and decency. All those loopholes must be absolutely sewn shut, and ‘conventions’ and ‘gentlemenly guardrails’ need to be made hard, fast, and most importantly ENFORCED laws if the country is to ever recover. I’m not hopeful.

11·2 days agoNot soon enough. Hopefully before they can take delivery of all of Micron’s RAM stockpiles!

Unscented Company stuff seems pretty good. My wife became very sensitive to fragranced soaps, cleansers etc and I’m very glad these products are available; we primarily use their liquid dish/hand soap.

News@lemmy.world•Netflix to acquire Warner Bros. studio and streaming business for $72 billion
3·7 days agoI don’t know how far we should/need to go … but all I do know is that the current state of mergers, consolidations and cartels in a lot of industries is, well ‘too much’. I don’t pretend to know what the proper balance is but it certainly ain’t what we have today.
Take the recent news of RAM price explosions and Micron just stopping sales to retail for their RAM products. RAM is such a critical item in today’s world there almost should be some guarantee enforced by governments that it remains affordable for people; we can’t live in modern society without affordable computing devices.

Linux@programming.dev•Jolla Trying Again To Develop A New Sailfish OS Linux Smartphone
421·7 days agoI hope they succeed. Given Alphabet/Google’s recent moves to try and lock Android’s app ecosystem down and them just generally becoming more Evil every day, GrapheneOS and LineageOS etc. may be living on borrowed time.
I watched a video reviewing some phones smuggled out of North Korea a few days ago and it’s truly scary what the endgame of locked mobile phones looks like and given the trends worldwide towards authoritarianism, we’re frogs being boiled slowly toward the same situation.

Technology@lemmy.zip•In 1995, a Netscape employee wrote a hack in 10 days that now runs the InternetEnglish
7·8 days agoNeat – I just set it up, got my gmail going in the Mail app and it works.
uBlock Origin isn’t officially supported any more as it’s considered ‘legacy browser’, but I found a working XPI here and it even seems to block Youtube ads. Wow.
…though my self-hosted Nextcloud login page doesn’t seem to work with it. If it isn’t a known issue I’ll file a bug ticket with them.
So surreal, being able to run Mozilla (now ‘Seamonkey’) on Windows 11 in 2025.

Well at least it’s an option, not mandatory.

11·8 days agoIn case you didn’t know, the original ‘Mozilla Suite’ (the browser/HTML composer/Mail client) is still apparently being developed! I’m sure it’s behind a lot of modern standards, but I love the idea it’s being kept alive…

Technology@lemmy.world•Zig quits GitHub, gripes about Microsoft's AI obsessionEnglish
601·9 days agoGood. The more projects that move off of github, the better. It’s a dangerous dependency-sinkhole at this point, and has been for some time. De-centralize!
See, even Calvin knew junk patents were bad! :P

1·10 days agoGood point. On that note I am very happy having moved my home server from Apache to Caddy. The auto cert config is very nice.











Thanks, will check it out. I agree it should be the client/user’s choice. I guess I would just like awareness of xcancel to get out there so people know about it as a way to avoid giving that site any more traffic.
