ars technica: we don't know how they did it but google chrome now extracts a pint of blood every time you log on
chrome user, dizzy from blood loss: I swear to god I am like this close to switching to firefox
another chrome user, on the verge of fainting from severe blood loss: no need to resort to that, just switch to [insert today's trendy chrome fork here] and be smart like meeee

https://twitch.tv/madewokherd How much more Klonoa can there be?
@recursive Sorry to hear it, I am prone to that sort of problem and try to select for people who don't do that.
@recursive Did I fail this? I know I reposted a link to an article about the ad targeting. Should I have added a CW?

What is your main browser (engine)?
Re-running a poll I saw on Mastodon a while ago, before various migrations. Just collecting numbers, not seeking advice or anything. Please boost for reach.

Developers of to-do and reminder apps need to understand that they cannot interrupt the capture workflow for any reason. I just opened iOS Reminders and had to quickly dismiss a couple new feature announcement dialogs that blocked operation entirely, because if I stopped to read them I would forget what I went there to capture so I wouldn't forget it. I managed it, but instead I didn't get to see the new feature descriptions.

Be your authentic self.
If that means the timid townsfolk flee before your dangerously shambling form, terrible darkness, and unearthly beauty, so be it.
@mavica_again It's still maintained? I've been using yt-dlp.

@gardevoir Also adults tickling children without asking is a common consent violation, or at least was when I was a kid.

re: easy way to ruin video games forever //
@lioness Video games are much simpler, after the first time we just assess whether we'd care if we never play that particular game again. If we're indifferent then it's not worth playing.
