Spez is really trying to turn Reddit into 9gag, huh?

Can someone please explain why not to use Brave browser ? by DuckGuy in c/privacy@lemmy.ml

I don't care that you can disable it

It's opt-in.

Infinity for Reddit is dead. by DuckGuy in c/snoocalypse@lemmy.ml

Weren't they switching to a subscription model? I know they pushed back the release of this new version but apparently Spez didn't feel like giving more free API access in the meantime. Or maybe the Infinity devs gave up on Reddit. Who knows.

Bloodbones' carving puzzle (cdn.imgchest.com)

I feel like an idiot.

Studying the carving you deduce that the inscription around it reveals how to open the door. If you can work out the number hidden in the puzzle, turn to the paragraph with that number.

Remember what the tribesman told you: "Back two, forward two. Back two, forward two."

I see the three arrows (top right of the skull, snake's tail & the golden piece at the bottom) but I can't for the life of me solve this.

I found the solution online but I still don't understand how it works.it's 275
The most logical reading I can come up with is "RARA" which doesn't feel very Roman numeral-y (but Roman numerals might not even be needed.)

So... would someone be kind enough to explain this puzzle to me?

If SearXNG worked for you, why not use a more stable instance?

It would conflict with the real xvideos.

Ubisoft is suspending "inactive" accounts, removing access to attached games by DuckGuy in c/technology@beehaw.org
[-] DuckGuy@lemmy.zip 21 points 11 months ago

Thanks for the heads-up! Turns out my account wasn't deleted, but the email address I used for U-Play did get deleted for inactivity*, and so now I'm locked out of my Ubisoft account 🤡 Meh. I'll deal with this tomorrow.

* deleting accounts after only 6 months of inactivity, Tutanota? Really?

Google raising price of YouTube Premium to $13.99 per month by DuckGuy in c/technology@beehaw.org

For YouTube, uYou+ blocks ads and sponsors.

For YouTube Music, YouTubeMusicUltimate blocks ads and sponsors, too.

Anyone can sideload those relatively easily. Still, if you don't want to bother with this, you can find apps on the AppStore that do pretty much the same thing, like Yattee or Video Lite (there's a paid subscription for this one but if you block ads at the DNS level you won't see anything.)
