Also probably gonna turn out it dissolves into smaller plastics, perfectly sized for penetrating the blood-brain-barrier.

Edit: I get it, no new technology has ever had issues with safety and efficacy uncovered after entering mass production and being discarded with reckless abandon in our environment

I apologize to the articles authors for my cynicism, it is clear from the article that nothing bad could possibly come from allowing this new plastic to dissolve in our oceans. It is nice to see plastic pollution has been definitively solved for the rest of time and we no longer have to worry about it.

Love the list, just a quick callout, these are pretty resource light services for self hosting, even $5/month seems like a stretch.

If you’re already running a server, the added overhead for a bookmark manager has got to be fractional watts, especially of you’re not bookmarking constantly.

If you’re doing a standalone server just for this, these can more than likely be hosted on a Raspberry Pi which uses 5W under load (maybe $1/mo under heavy load), and are incredibly lean when idle (pennies/month).

I do think your post does a good job making people think about the hidden costs of self hosting, but done right self hosting energy can be greatly reduced

Math remembers to carry the units for kilowatt hours.

That said, I’d pay $1.11/mo just to never have to deal with a cable on my desk again.

Yes and no, I’ve treated the symptoms, but not the problem. All it takes is a trillion dollar company buying a new domain every once in a while to foil uBlock, and now that it’s more known, anyone can create an an app that opens ports and listens for trackers.

Would love it if Firefox would let me block all requests to localhost.

We found that browsers such as Chrome, Firefox and Edge are susceptible to this form of browsing history leakage in both default and private browsing modes. Brave browser was unaffected by this issue due to their blocklist and the blocking of requests to the localhost; and DuckDuckGo was only minimally affected due to missing domains in their blocklist.

Aside from having uBlock Origin and not having any Meta/Yandex apps installed, anyone aware of additional Firefox settings that could help shut this nonsense down?

But I thought Edge was so crucial for the system to function it can’t be removed? That’s what MS told me at least, and I definitely trust them

As a fellow ADHD person, this is a really hard one to maintain, but the really important thing here is just being conscious of the difference in calories between different food groups, then learning for each ~100 calories you eat, you have to walk a mile just to burn it off.
