TNG is also painfully old fashioned. Especially the fist two seasons are … hard to watch sometimes.
Honestly: I would start with VOY. It’s easy to watch, has a certain amount of action, and doesn’t lose it too much with society and politics.
I’ve seen someone with a pool noodle sticking off the side of their bike at the minimum passing distance for cars.
A better and less passive-aggressive solution to make cars pass at the minimum distance is psychology.
If you ride your bike on the outer right part of the road, car drivers tend to squeeze trough on the same lane because the center line also is a “psychological barrier” they do not want to cross. And “since there is enough space on my lane, I stay in my lane”.
The solution here is simple: Do not drive on the outer part of the road. Imagine you’re in a car on the passenger seat. Ride your bike where you would sit in relation to the road. You’re still on the right side of the right lane but this gives not enough space to squeeze through, and when not being able to squeeze through, drivers tend to properly use the opposite lane for passing by.

How generous of them that we’re allowed to install software on our mobile computers that we own.
The USA are a circus only existing to entertain the rest of the world.
Have we just become numb to ads?
Online I use multiple browser extensions and settings to avoid showing ads. In the offline world there is no way to avoid them but I think I pretty much can ignore them.
I also intentionally do not buy anything I remember seeing an ad for.


Yes, all access to outside sources is blocked by default and users are asked on a per URL basis with the author manually requesting each URL access including a reason – with occasional manual validation from Mozilla staff.


They should make it a requestable permission.


This is the only valid answer!
The URLs mentioned in their blog article all have a wrong certificate (different host name).
I am sure if they fix it Google’s system would reclassify the sites as safe.
Please go see a doctor if you think you have skin cancer.


has led to a lot of the same moderation rot on Lemmy
Almost as if the platform wasn’t the problem.
So, they gave in to the AI hype, too?
I’ll always prefer physical media over streaming for things I like.
It’s mainly Bluray nowadays, but also some older DVDs.


- Does this mean sideloading is going away on Android?
No, but we have to approve it.
FTFY.


It’s called “installing”.
“Sideloading” is a term created by app store owners to frame installing software from outside their walled gardens as shady/illegal/questionable/problematic/whatever.
No-one would say, “I’m sideloading this application” when not using your distribution’s package manager on your desktop or laptop computer. Why call it sideloading when installing software on your pocket computer, then?
That’s mine.

Stock kernel (only custom loader entries), using systemd-boot. No LTS kernel installed. I assume for LTS this will more or less double.
Don’t worry, it’s just fearmongering because the cannot fingerprint your browser and want you to turn of the privacy features.
So wild that Facebook still is a thing.
