this also doesn't work on windows or osx unless you're using nightly builds, but you're a huge nerd, so of course you are

This case of an intraperitoneal zucchini is unusual, and does raise questions as to how hard one has to push a blunt vegetable to perforate the rectum.

that means you are enrolled in mozilla's studies program where they gently caress with you are settings and report back your data to do semi-involuntary a b testing

e: they have a blog post where they say they fixed it, but you have to turn studies on

i have firefox on my computer but I haven’t even used my computer since everything went wrong. wouldn’t have even known if it weren’t for all the complaints.

i feel like this would have been a much bigger deal in 2008. you know, back when people actually used computers and something other than chrome.

they probably use this list and have a nice ui around how much traffic you've blocked

My enemies are many.

My equals are none.

Been using this for years. It also helps to block tracking and telemetry in software that's not a browser, such as games.

real truth here: i literally only just parsed "goatse.cx" as "goatsex" after looking at that host list

iirc the first time i got goatse'd it was by someone at school that said it "goat see dot see ecks" and i guess that was it :downs:

itll parse that and a bunch of other lists as well as regex now that they forked and extended dnsmasq. either a pihole or hosts if the machine supports it are my preference because

the amount of telemetry and unnecessary behavior tracking from settop and streaming boxes is impressive. every video service is hungry for data but especially any tied to netowrk or cable channels
