When the IT technician says Microsoft edge is exactly google chrome you’re in bad trouble. It’s built on the same engine using the chromium project but it is NOT EXACTLY google chrome 🤦‍♂️🤣

I thought the battery of my ancient #Android phone had finally given out. Battery went from fully charged to empty in a heartbeat.

However #Proton app was somehow stuck trying to fetch notifications, so I killed it, thinking this was a battery drain. It likely was.

Along the way I found a real useful feature: Data Saver 😃

After I turned this on my battery lasts for days now, and I don't get superfluous notifications anymore either.

One of the reasons why I won't use brave is because of it based on chromium not to mention its crypto baloney

What’s the difference between a guitarist and a government savings bond?

Eventually, a savings bond will mature and make money.

Your thoughts on this?

In private search we only have Brave and Duck Duck Go the later have been caught selling data but this seems shady especially number 2 and number 3 😬

Starting to question brave and some of their motives.

1. Support private, independent search
2. See search results ad-free
3. Get a cleaner view on all results pages

#askfedi I want to run my own website essentially just a place I can write things. Something that looks like fosstodon.org is fine basic and to the point. How should I go about it? I used WordPress but after all this AI bullshit I don't want to use it again plus I'd like to keep costs to a minimum.#webdev #developer #css #html

It sometimes baffles me how prominent charming people like SBF manage to con people into buying into the crypto scam, but then I remember that around half of Americans voted for Trump twice. 🤷‍♂️

I've never really fancied trying the bobsleigh but I'd probably have a go if pushed...

I’m balls deep in the apple ecosystem and that’s not because of apple it’s third party developers who make such great apps only on apple devices.

Curse you top developers 😂

Is it the responsibility of the person putting their own washing in the basket to check for items in their pockets or the person who puts the items in the machine?
