‘Multi-Account Containers’: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/containers
With it, you can open tabs in different ‘containers’, which have their own set of cookies, etc… So, for example, you can be logged into two accounts for the same website, just in different containers, or keep all your shopping accounts in one container (and set those sites to always open in that container) to reduce tracking and targeting.
Ah, okay, on mine it de-duplicates crossposts in the feed. Thanks for the info!
I cross-posted it 4 times, within minutes of each other, each on a different instance. Is there something wrong with that?
The Football Association’s (FA) rules state teams must wear colours that distinguish them from each other.
Sorry to hear about your gravitas situation, times are tough for many of us 😆
If you ask for cooking or cleaning advice and it hallucinates you’re still at square zero regardless.
Unless it tells you to mix bleach and ammonia 😆
HP, as well as being hostile to its customers, is also complicit in the Israeli occupation, and is a major target of the BDS movement: https://bdsmovement.net/boycott-hp
Don’t buy HP products.
“Hello, this is Linus Torvalds and I pronounce ‘Linux’ as ‘Linux’.”
So yeah, he pronounces ‘Linus’ like ‘LEE-noose’, and ‘Linux’ like ‘LEE-nooks’. (Roughly, anyway. It should get the point across for most English speakers, I’m not at a computer to do a more-correct IPA transcription right now.)
Where, the U.S.? Seems like there’s gotta be other times and places that were more woman- and queer-friendly, right?
Yeah, antibiotics is a big one. Plus, some of my skills might actually still be useful in the 40s.
But life did suck in a lot of places for a lot of people in the 40s. WW2, the devastation left behind by WW2, and horrible social attitudes. Good luck in ‘the west’ if you’re not a straight white cis man.
You could probably memorise how to identify the right fungus and isolate penicillin, right?
Pretty decent, although the inclusion of the last paragraph without the following paragraphpointing out that this incident shows that’s not true is a little misleading if you’re not paying attention.
ive just heard of an incident where students redirected their books codes to p**n. can i make sure that doesnt happen?
This is kind of confusing, or at least leaves a lot of detail out 😆 Did the domain lapse? Did their short-URL account get hacked? In any case, your QR code will just be encoding a URL. Ultimately, any URL can be redirected by someone out there; so it’s just a matter of trusting that whoever has that access won’t act maliciously, and that malicious actors can’t gain access.
also, im using google to generate them, is there a foss alternative as im scared of tracking.
There absolutely are, just search and you should find plenty. Again, though, the QR code is just encoding a URL. Does Google use their own short-URL service for their generated QR codes? Just scan the QR code and look at the URL it encodes. If it’s only the URL you want - not some Google short-URL that then redirects to the URL you entered - then there can’t be any tracking done on it by Google.
lastly, can i make the qr code redirect to a specific page of a pdf
Covered by another commenter already, but for completeness: yes, you just add #page={n)
at the end of the URL, e.g. https://dagrs.berkeley.edu/sites/default/files/2020-01/sample.pdf#page=5
Yeah, #page={n)
works, e.g. https://dagrs.berkeley.edu/sites/default/files/2020-01/sample.pdf#page=5
Tucker and Dale vs Evil (2010) and The Cabin in the Woods (2012) (go in spoiler-free with this one) are both good comedy horror.
