Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Where can i buy and own digital media like comic, music and moviesEnglish
3·21 days agoBut with Qobuz remember to download your music immediately, or it might disappear! Bandcamp does not suffer from this limitation.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Why do you personally hate Christmas?English
3·21 days agoJesus wasn’t born on December 25th. There is no birth narrative in the earliest gospel, Mark, it is an invention of later writers. I think the Romans put his “birthday” on the calendar close to Saturnalia to appease the Saturnalians or whatever.
I like to call it the Solstice (because that’s more or less what it is), with Solstice trees, Solstice cookies, etc.
Christmas, IMHO, is really for kids, not for adults. After the kids grow up, consider celebrating the Solstice by giving to their favorite charity (or better yet, your favorite open source software developer). This SNL video pretty much sums up for me Christmas as it is now for most people: an empty gesture.

Firefox@lemmy.ml•So Long Firefox, Hello VivaldiEnglish
2·2 months agoFrom the article:
The inability to video conference reliably [on LibreWolf]
Could someone elaborate on this? Also
I like my browsers to remember when I have zoomed in on a tab
If she means the browser remembering the zoom levels on different pages, this can be done IIRC by disabling resist fingerprinting in about:config and then installing the canvas blocker addon which is not as good as RFP, but for me at least has been a good compromise privacy-wise.Out of date info! Have a look at this instead: https://github.com/arkenfox/user.js/issues/1775

19·2 months agoI actually think this is why a lot of rich people end up in Congress; it’s because they want to make even more money! This kind of insider trading should be made very very illegal and punishable by prison.
