I look at itt the other way. The EU’s cookie rules require websites to allow opt-out in no more than 2 clicks. I think they’re just trying to confuse and wear us down.

I will continue to 2-click my way through these things and not worry too much. If they wanted to break the rules then they can do it all anyway and ignore my clicked preferences.

What’s the difference between limited interest and consent? The latter is unticked by default.

Give Microtopia a look. It’s ant colony as a factory sim and it’s really quite good.

Sorry, I don’t understand. On kukuklok.com , press Manage Settings and then Save Settings. Avoid the Recommended button. Job done?

A lot of sites make it look difficult but you can often opt out of their ad and tracking cookies in 2 clicks. Usually there’s a “Save my choices” button that defaults to doing just this.

It’s not in their interest to make it clear.

It’s not the regulations, it’s the banks. They’re super paranoid, everything has to be proprietary. And at the same time their backends are all ancient and seriously decrepit. Which has to be kept secret and airgapped from the public.

Witchcraft!!

I was born in the late 70s so I can comment on the 80s onwards.

It was ok. It’s better now though. Some stuff got worse. A lot got better. We know more, have better toys, live longer, cheaper travel and so on.

The major thing that’s worse is the internet blasting every negative thing into your brain 24/7

It’s up to employers who they employ. It’s not for you or I to decide what job or what person are suitable.

But if your skilled enployees are switching to burger flipping because they can make the same money then you aren’t paying the new market rate.

A rising tide lifts all boats.

Can’t decide if to down vote you for “soccer” or updoot you for funny. Argh. Got a headache now.

Take this updoot and get out.

Tea is not the midday meal, it’s the evening meal. Usually the largest meal of the day on a work day evening.

The only settings I ever change are Linux Native to Proton 9 because it’s just SO much better for games more than 5 minutes old.

Firefox. Ublock is pn tge mobile version and tge desktop version.

If it works then great. My first one was SUPER choosy about what pans would work and exactly where you had to put them. It was borderline unusable and almost put me off induction.

Cheap induction stoves can be AWFUL. If you’re having to use certain pans and position them accurately, you have a crappy one.

We haven’t gone anywhere near being Trump land yet. And the Trump party (Reform) just got wrecked in an election yesterday.

Lock and unlock control and status mainly.
