Yeah, I'm using Joplin over Nextcloud and it would absolutely be compatible, the Markdown syntax is the same after all.

I wouldn't say "shit" but rather niche. Most people who would love a Reddit-like place have Reddit and don't hate it enough to switch, especially since we don't have extensive hobby communities with long history.

This is GRUB’s final warning before you dig too deep in the OS list. Never hold ⬇️ for more than 45 minutes. If you do, make sure you have punch tape with a bootloader available or you'll have to manually enter machine code instructions to get your computer back up.

  • Do you think developers have any say in this?
  • They have Reddit Premium for free, and most likely an internal version too.

I wonder if there is a notification ad blocker with community-submittted sets of regex patterns that root users can use.

That’s exactly what Microsoft did in the 1990s after an antitrust lawsuit for hindering free browser selection: integrated Internet Explorer into Explorer to have an excuse for having it preinstalled.

The EU is taking similar steps but I tgink Edge WebView will stay essential. Removing it on a laptop broke biometrics (aka Windows Hello: fingerprint sensor and face recognition) and I had to use a restore point. Seems sketchy to use a browser engine for essential security features – at this point, I would hope I had triggered some OS tamper-detection because the alternative is an OS whose login system is infected with an unpopular browser not because it enhances security but out of spite, and I don't think exploiting legal loopholes leads to most secure solutions.

Duh. To be honest, should have checked before making the post.
Are you WestEnd?

I once got Top 7 Luxury Cruise in (Landlocked) Czech Republic from Microsoft. Also, The Flight Price From %user.location% (village of 200 people) To New York Will Surprise You

Thanks. I should have checked earlier before making a fool of myself. A lesson for me, I guess.

Thanks. Maybe I should go buy another emotional support Blåhaj, the big one this time.

Very wholesome thread for someone who could well be an IRL Joker and @ShitOnABrick@lemmy.world.

Oh, and I love the community you moderate. Better fuel Huel!

Thank you for your kind words.

Hardship is part of life. I have more than I would like right now but that's just how I am. Dunno, maybe should place myself preventively on suicide watch.

At least it's a temporary, below minimum wage job so I don't mind too much if the computer goes up in flames and I get fired. It will get wiped for the next wagie anyway.

MSER does not uninstall Edge BTW

Edit: Folks, I keep telling you it's VERY unlikely to be malware.

I’ll update you and apologize to each if my credit card gets wiped or something but I’m quite sure I’m safe, don't worry.

Also sorry for blaming Microsoft for what is apparently my fault.


I accidentally clicked Microsoft Edge on my work computer with Windows 10 and couldn't close it — it just keeps reopening. It takes File Shredder to stop it from opening again, at least until the computer restarts.

Notice the ads, most are extremely sketchy (my frequent reload in previous takes caused the ad server + my work VPN to rate limit me):

  • China warns: %user.currency% is dead! (Yeah, sure. Obvious propaganda. Generic pictures or faked images of a worthless banknote giveaway.)
  • 63-year-old figured out! (Does not say what but a pic of obviously young-looking feet.)
  • Make boatloads of money with AI! (aka auto-trade very uncompetitive options, no guarantees on withdrawals of any wins)
  • Save money using solar! (The company is legitimate but the deal on panels is probably not great)
  • Buy yourself a great new FPCEILPTBSP! (You can't tell what it is and neither can we! (Apparently TV wall mount))
  • Losing hair?
  • Millionaire has genius method you can try (but give us money first, making his pic transparent so we can put him in front of %user.country.flag% was difficult)
  • Game! Yay! (Microtransactions galore!)
  • Get EVERYTHING in your car fixed (by a stock photo mechanic!)
