Someone's gotta teach their kids how to prune links. 3/4 of that isn't needed.

[-] ryannathans@aussie.zone 83 points 8 months ago

Firefox will now do it for you

Oh? In crayon??

Seriously though, awesome feature.

[-] Lev_Astov@lemmy.world 20 points 8 months ago

I just figured out how to use that feature and it's not as clean as manual pruning. You right click on the URL field and choose Copy Without Site Tracking, but it still leaves half the junk.

It’s an Amazon link, so all you really need is the ASIN: b0032hf60m

Please teach me the ways. How does one prune links?

[-] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 23 points 8 months ago

look for the "?" take out anything after it. If that breaks the page, look for the last "&" and keep taking that (and anything after it) until the shortest possible working link emerges. 99% of the time step 1 will work

That was good general advice, but with Amazon links, anything starting from /ref= can be deleted so it ends with that product/idnumber.

Sooo, doing some search it seems as if this image is more than a decade old. Unfortunately the amazon link is not working anymore.

Entering the product code on camelcamelcamel however does bring up the RC car: https://camelcamelcamel.com/product/B0032HF60M

We should do a "where are they now" on this kid.

[-] aksdb@feddit.de 5 points 8 months ago

Or their delivery.

I have one of those, mine looks like a turtle

Me too! They're so delicious.

[-] redcalcium@lemmy.institute 75 points 8 months ago

Kid even write down the tracking parameters!

[-] SnipingNinja@slrpnk.net 35 points 8 months ago

How else would you know if it's actually Santa bringing your gifts and not some creep pretending to be him

[-] jennwiththesea@lemmy.world 48 points 8 months ago

No, but seriously, as a parent who regularly gets texts and emails of crap that my kids want, teaching them to prune their links is next on my to-do list! It's annoying AF, but right now we're focused on the power of the "enter" button to add spaces between items on a list.

[-] doidera@lemmy.eco.br 19 points 8 months ago

Firefox can remove that stuff now.

[-] olutukko@lemmy.world 12 points 8 months ago

Sounds like having kids is great :D

"Why isn't Santa on WhatsApp?"

[-] linearchaos@lemmy.world 23 points 8 months ago

It would cannibalize his onlyfans account.

[-] clearedtoland@lemmy.world 10 points 8 months ago

Poor Santa’s going to download naughtyNiceList.exe
