Vinegar is a safari extension that gives you premium’s features. I’m almost certain it can do at least 1080 if not higher.

Vinegar - $2 - Adblock for youtube, PiP, and enables background audio. In tandem with sponsorblock is absolutely stellar (in safari only, not the youtube app).

SponsorBlock - $3 - Removes sponsor segments from youtube videos (in safari only, not the youtube app).

Adguard - $12 maybe $6, their pricing is weird - Safari wide adblock. Also has a element picker that can remove headers, banners, etc to declutter, just like ublock origin on desktop.

TweaksforTwitter - $10? I think it got pulled down from the US app store. - De-shitifies Twitter.

StoptheMadness - $10 - So god damn much.

Hush - Free - Removes cookie banners and trackers.

Noir - $3 - Safari night mode for sites that don’t play along with system dark mode.

Rekt - $1 - Removes many “open in our app” banners and redirects amp links.

Sink for Reddit - Free - Removes reddit ads and ‘open in app’ banner.

Banish - $3 - Another option that removes many “open in our app” banners.

Userscripts - Free - Loads whatever custom 3rd party javascript of your choosing into sites.

A lot of these have redundant features, so something like StoptheMadness and Adguard might consolidate a lot of the others. I get that this looks like death by $3, but these are just what I’ve gathered over the years. I’d only recommend Adguard at a minimum, vinegar and sponsorblock if you don’t already have premium, and the others if they mean anything to you. Again these are all safari features so nothing that will change anything system wide or in other apps like youtube.

Edit: Also, StopTheMadness was unique in that it had a Mac version that included the firefox and chrome extensions. After unpacking the app bundle, I just copied the firefox folder and moved it to my windows computer. Works all the same. That dev is awesome and though no one likes paying for shit, I have no problem supporting regular people undoing the bullshit that is the modern internet.

I’ve primarily been an iphone user over the years and was recently hand me downed an older pixel. Using grapheneOS and firefox, I was surprised to see there were only about a dozen extensions available, good ones, but not all of them like I’d assumed. Then I discovered chrome on android has zero, is that right? I cannot believe that there are so many people that use a mobile browser without an adblocker. On iOS safari, I have dozens of incredible extensions (basically countless through the app store) that make the internet useable again. I’m happy to see safari opening up.

I’m talking out of my ass, but are there any 360’s that have survived this long? I went through 3 or 4 with the red ring. I can’t imagine time has been kind to the solder and thermal paste. Did MS ever have a later model that had a long term fix?

Is getting raided by the FBI something most people worry about?

I have a node 304 case with an itx board and I wish I’d have gone with something bigger with more expansion slots. Some sata ports died on me so I installed an hba card to give me more. That means I can’t add a 10g nic or a video card for hardware acceleration or…you get the idea. Ideally spend less money now and experiment, then in the future you’ll hopefully learn what suits your needs.

Understand that this is a rabbit hole where you’ll hear a million opinions. If you’re just starting out, I’d recommend keeping it simple. It’s been a while since I looked at what’s new, but I’d look at truenas scale or unraid first.

I personally use truenas core (based on freebsd) but truenas scale (based on debian) opens up more options like docker that might be useful in the future.

I recommend sticking to hardware you already own until you run into something that you can’t do. Then you’ll have a better idea of what to look for and how everything works.

The music in this game is way better than it needs to be.

As with Starfield, I’m reserving my expectations for when these games release. The last couple years especially we’ve seen some extremely broken and busted games. Also the monetization aspect can totally ruin a game for me. I find it immersion breaking and it sucks the fun out of it. Is there a !cynicalgamers community?
