The really irritating part is that tools like Playwright let you end-to-end test your product across the big three (Chromium, Firefox and Webkit). Which, most of the time, means these products that specify "Chrome only" simply aren't E2E testing with modern tools.

Usually, I get blocked on the sign-up page. For example, on the Coralogix sign-up page, it won't let me create my account with an email with a @gmail.com extension

Hopefully a similar situation to Palworld?

Windows Defender should be more than good enough for most users. Just make sure to use an adblocker (such as UBlock Origin), only visit HTTPS sites as much as you can (you should see a lock in the corner of the URL bar on most browsers) and ensure you always virus-scan programs you downloaded before running them.

Also, exercise caution on the Internet in general. Never just click "yes" when a program asks for admin permission - make sure you check exactly which program is trying to do it and that the publisher is reasonable. Never exit read-only mode on Office-suite documents unless you know the document is for-sure safe (exiting read-only mode allows macros to run).

Doing all of this, Windows Defender should do fine. I'm assuming 99% of this is common sense for you though, since you've already found your way to the Fediverse!

In that case, can you point to the specific comments of mine that show that so I can work on myself?

Edit: oh I get it, that went right over my head lol

Really good, solid cables of varying varieties (preferably braided). I've had many cables for years and never had to replace them (or if I did, it was wayyy after their due date lol). HDMI and Micro USB were the big ones for me

Somehow, people always reply very rudely regardless of my tone lol. I could be saying "we need to stop global warming" and there'll be someone like "We ALSO need to REVERSE it dumbass". Like, this has happened too much, people are way too defensive and will take any chance possible to "one-up" each other

You technically can through federation but it's missing certain features (due to it being a Lemmy client). It's like viewing Lemmy posts via Mastodon

Yeah, this has always been my thought as well. I suppose it's better than nothing, but in a lot of cases planting the trees where they weren't present before can destroy ecosystems as well. The real solution is to stop using fossil fuels and other "dirty" fuel, but we all know how well the companies take that idea...

If ya ask me, we should install solar panels on the tops of all the skyscrapers / houses, invest a ton more into electric vehicles of all kinds (especially focusing on improving towing capacity), create non-polluting public transportation (especially talking from a US perspective), add some wind farms in the mountains and try desperately to find some solution to our ever-growing mountains of plastic.

According to this, she is using carbon offsets - though I have no idea what percent of her footprint is being offset: https://carboncredits.com/taylor-swift-controversy-ahead-of-super-bowl-lviii/

Edit: this is moreso in response to the environmental concerns, it's still silly she's trying to sue someone aggregating public data. I really hope the court throws this out.
