Same here. I only support those companies because they're the best options for what they offer, and I'm not gonna let perfection get in the way of progress. Even though Mozilla is making some business choices I don't agree with, I'm gonna keep recommending Firefox until some other non-Chromium browser comes along (which unfortunately isn't gonna happen for a long time).

Same with AMD- they are so much more friendly to the open-source community than Nvidia or Intel, so I will recommend them to everyone, until the moment they start being worse. At that point, I'll start recommending whoever seems best at that point in time.

You could always put it into service as a network wide ad blocker with PiHole. Might also speed up web browsing a bit too, since PiHole also works as a DNS cache.

I'm not sure I exactly understand what you're asking, maybe some pictures would help?

I know it's anecdotal, but my younger sister would go off-the-walls bonkers any time she had Red 40 as a kid. Which sucked, because I swear everything has red 40 in it, even stuff like white vanilla frosting. We would have to buy the "all natural" versions of a lot of stuff, which can get really pricey.

Point being, if there's actual research corroborating the hyperactivity, then I completely support banning artificial dyes in schools. It will likely make the price of natural food dyes come down, or make dyes be excluded from foods in the first place, which is fine because kids don't need neon colored lunches.

Start feeding it too, or get one of the neighbors who's been feeding it to help out. Your best bet is a feral cat trap, which are kinda pricey, but if you call around to a few local rescues or "trap, neuter, release" programs, they may be able to lend you one. Then you can likely just use food to lure it into the trap.

Of course, if this cat used to be someone's pet, you could even just try luring it into a garage or, hell, a big cardboard box, from which you could put some thick gloves on and transfer it into a pet carrier

That's fair, although I think that depends a lot on the type of car you drive. There's an option to tell Maps what type of car you drive (electric, hybrid, or gas), which will change the results, because cars with regenerative breaking often get better "city" milage than "highway" milage.

It also probably depends on factors like how aerodynamic your vehicle is, because it makes a huge difference above ~50mph (air resistance/drag increases exponentially with speed)

It does indicate the "fuel efficient" route pretty clearly though, and always gives multiple other options including the quickest one that isn't as efficient. If this is what's causing the issue, OP just needs to look closer at what's on their screen.

.....a wifi card that uses a certain type of M.2 connector

Works perfectly on Sync

I've been out of the game for a few years, who's TG?

They totally might have figured something out. Hell, they could have gotten a hold of some of Sony's original disc-pressing hardware to reproduce the copy protection. It really is the Wild West when it comes to these retailers

Just so you know, Lemmy has an option in every person's account to hide posts and comments from bot accounts ("bot" in this context meaning accounts that have voluntarily tagged themselves as bots, which is the case for the one you replied to.)
