Probably not the crowd for this but I just use YouTube premium at this point. I used ublock previously to manage some of this but the kicker was ensuring I could watch YT seamlessly on all devices (TV - fire stick, ipad, ios). I know I can setup a pi hole but have been moving last couple years. Perhaps soon once I settle.

Some valid criticisms but doesn't stop me from hitting 75 on 2 chars.

My people! Glad to see my namesake community. Kidding, I will post my lighterpack eventually but with wife my priorities have changed. Tried to show her the UL ways but she requires a number of backcountry comforts.

 

Surprising this late post release

maybe there is something native that is better these days but I have been using this for years. Got my first mac in 2014 (11in air).

better snap tool -BetterSnapTool allows you to easily manage your window positions and sizes by either dragging them to one of the screen's corners or to the top, left or right side of the screen. This enables you to easily maximize your windows, position them side by side or even resize them to quarters of the screen.

"wen yr surveillance drone" isa series created entirely out of FBI drone surveillance footage captured during the protests in Baltimore following the death of Freddie Gray. It was inspired by Harun Farocki’s work with “operational images,” which explored the way computerized systems, like weapon and surveillance systems, see and understand visual information. The idea behind the piece is to find and crystallize fleeting moments of inoperancy captured on the drone’s surveillance feed. These moments are comprised of glitches, maneuvers, and contingencies, such as the instance when the drone captures an impromptu skating performance, creating an image that upends the official narrative of "criminal protesters" in a “war zone.” The panoptic gaze of a surveillance drone is recast as a that of a spectator witnessing a performance piece.

Have been a part of the lightweight backpacking community for a decade plus now. Have always loved the insane lengths folks go to shave a few ounces, such a funny hobby to me. I also just love the name.

These kinds of posts remind me exactly of my first few days on reddit post Digg Great Migration. There was a great multipage webcomic made then too.
