This is exactly it, millions spent on the product, but no noticeable changes? The money is going elsewhere.

Wikipedia is doing the same.

I have Pushover. I love it. I have a bash alias that I use to notify me when some command completes. I get a notification on my phone, and a tap on my wrist letting me know some hours long task is complete, and I can do the next step.

I have a Octoprint integration which lets me know when 3d prints have completed.

You can also modify the priority of a message, so I can send "critical" events if I need to, although I use that rarely.

What about the constant Brave Premium ads? I got many notifications every day asking me to pay them, I couldn’t find a way to disable them. They had intrusive ads for premium in every new tab page as well.

Interrupting my work to ask me to send you money is unacceptable, Mozilla has never done that to me.

The web is slowly becoming chrome only and I hate it. I recently had to switch to Chromium because Firefox simply did not work for the websites at my job.

I have always found coolers with heat pipes provide the best cooling for mine.

Thanks I will give it a try.

I looked into using ffmpeg to “compress” video podcasts by lowering the framerate a lot, but it didn’t seem to do as much as I thought (about 50% size reduction). The theory was that a video podcast is mostly talking heads with an occasional chart on the screen, so you really only need a frame every second, or five seconds.

I’ve had fiber at my house from day one provided by a local ISP. Comcast came in and buried their own fiber lines (years later) for all the houses in my neighborhood. Soon after, my ISP bumped my speed and lowered my monthly bill.

We desperately need more competition. It’s the only thing that actually lowers prices.

Also, I will happily pay higher prices to never pay for Comcast again. So they won’t see a penny from me.

I disabled my eBay app login pop up because it would never come. My login would sit pending forever. Would much prefer TOTP, even if a little slower.

I disagree that SMS two factor is more secure than a password alone. I have found that once you enter your phone, it is more trusted than your password (meaning it alone can reset your password). A phone number is as secure as the least competent support person at your phone provider.

A password, with email reset is better. My email has two factors of authentication, rather than whatever my phone provider requires as proof.

Agreed. When Netflix had just about everything, piracy took a big hit.

We need a return to Blockbuster-like selection, but streaming. A streaming service should purchases however many copies they are streaming, and replace them on a schedule as the copy “wears out”, like Blockbuster.

I absolutely loved the first film. I am very excited for the second part. I enjoy long movies, so having two parts is good.

One part of the first movie that sticks out to me is seeing their space ships for the first time. It was such a different style of space ship that it (plus the music) really struck me in the moment and stayed with me.
