#Chromium (and #Chrome) begins phasing-out Manifest v2.

https://blog.chromium.org/2024/05/manifest-v2-phase-out-begins.html

This means, among other things, that uBlock Origin is about to be disabled in Chrome. Google will choose a different extension to recommend but it can not be as effective as #uBlock Origin.

Following #Google's example, may I instead recommend you switch to #Firefox.

Firefox will continue to support Manifest v2, and consequently uBlock Origin and other extensions that can not be implemented with Manifest v3.

Happy browsing.

tl;dw Most of the energy from fossil fuels is wasted. Energy from renewable sources is much more efficient. In the future, we won‘t need the same amount of energy that we need today.

In other words, if we consume an X amount of fossil fuel energy today, and we want to get rid of fossil fuels, we won’t need the same X amount of renewable energy to do that, but only a fraction of X.

In the same way most of us say “goodbye” without realising it derives from “god be with ye”, maybe one day people will end conversations with “likensubscribe”

I walked into our local Christian-owned coffeeshop this morning, and the music they're playing is…the Devil's own. Aerosmith. The Cars. AC/DC. This is what happens when all the baristas are college students.

Good.

Sometimes GitHub Copilot is just astounding.

Note: this suggestion popped up whether or not I typed a K. Even in a blank spot, somehow, Copilot decided this was probably what I wanted.

Attachments:

• A single letter, K, typed into a code file in VS Code, followed immediately by the GitHub Copilot suggestion, "Kyle's changes" (remote)

I picked up "80s Kids" from Shannon Curtis when they initially released it with a single track. I've been enjoying getting updates as they've added tracks to the album. Fun stuff.

I know this is a Reddit post, but it is a great summary of what Project 2025 plans to do:

https://www.reddit.com/r/politics/comments/1d42cqp/comment/l6bi392/

• Eliminating LGBQI+ and transgender rights.

• Eradicating federal funding for DEI programs. Participation in any critical race theory or DEI initiative will be grounds for termination of government employees.

• Ending reproductive freedom and replacing the Department of Health and Human Services with the “Department of Life.”

• Ending climate change and environmental policies by shutting down the Office of Domestic Climate Policy, the Department of Energy’s Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations, the Office of Environmental Justice, and External Civil Rights, and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, to name a few. Climate science will no longer be used in National Security.

• Slashing of the Department of Justice and dismantling the FBI and replacing their traditional independence from political pressure with fealty to the administration.

• Purging the government of apolitical civil servants by firing as many as 50,000 and hiring replacements from a database of personnel vetted for conservative values and loyalty, a “Conservative LinkedIn.” Successful candidates will undergo training at a “Presidential Training Academy” and be furnished “with the insight, background knowledge, and expertise in governance to immediately begin rolling back destructive policy and advancing conservative ideas in the federal government.”

• Eliminating the checks and balances built into three branches of government in favor of expanded control by the executive branch.

• Replacing the Department of Homeland Security with a 100,000-worker-strong immigration department, militarization of the border and an end to refugee programs.

• Fundamentally altering American diplomacy to push anti-abortion and anti-LGBTQ+ agendas, adopt a “human rights” regime distinct from the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and abandon international organizations and traditional diplomatic and security alliances.
