achance4cheese@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's Preferred web browser for phone?2·1 year agoWas using DDG browser for awhile after Firefox. Started recently using Safari Privacy mode plus Wipr, an ad blocking extension, one time fee but the developer is privacy focused. Ad block test gets 100 score vs 70 on DDG or Firefox. Other peeps mention already but all browsers are just front ends for Safari on iOS, as far as I understand.

achance4cheese@sh.itjust.worksto memes@lemmy.world•Even the ones that trick you by starting out cheap1·1 year agoI totally feel the GAS issue, (lol that sounds bad). In high school and college I totally got away with a budget setup like you described: cheap guitar, used amp, laptop, a couple of effects pedals, some cables and I was in solid shape. I recorded A LOT! Hell, some of my best work was done with that budget setup. Audio quality wasn’t the best but it didn’t matter to me, just for fun.
As soon as I got out of college and had more than two nickels to rub together, my gear setup had gotten out of hand. Multiple guitars, amps, midi controllers, mixing boards, usb interfaces, studio monitors, full pedal boards, multiple mics, electric drum kit, cables cables cables. Just insane, thousands of dollars. I still do plenty of recording and playing but not nearly as much as my budget days. Some truth to less is more I guess. I have so many toys I don’t know what to do with my hands.
The upside to having more gear is I can host karaoke at parties, jam sessions can be recorded live in very high quality rather than relying on cheap hand recorders, and my own records are much higher quality. Plus, lots of toys, so I can never be bored.
I will say though, I much prefer a minimal setup. It keeps everything tight. It’s very hard to avoid all the novelty of having new toys to play with. But it’s true, playing guitar can be a very cheap hobby!
achance4cheese@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•How Google is killing independent sites like ours - HouseFreshEnglish6·2 years agoI definitely went down the rabbit hole after reading the article posted, which was very well compiled. Their testing and reviews are very high quality and it looks like they can apply their test results to multiple curated use cases. Their tests also seem repeatable, which is important for this niche. To branch out, they would have to build out very specific testing environments, which is not a small investment, depending on what they are testing. If I ever need an air purifier, I know where to look now I guess. Like some say, if your going to do something, focus on doing one thing and do it well.
Man, I want to get back into this game, I never beat it either. But some of the boss battles are like intricate dances. Don’t even get me started on the path of pain.

achance4cheese@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Reddit: IP Address Disclosure Puts User Anonymity At Risk * TorrentFreakEnglish2·2 years agoI don’t know if it was VPN or using uBo but the last time I tried viewing content on my Linux setup all I saw was the whoa there pardner page.
Bahaha the big sock is what I shall call the duvet cover from now on!
I have it enabled as much as possible, also helps for recording how to videos, especially when not recording instructions.
Wow! This is actually top tier OC, fantastic job OP, especially with the Lemmy call out!
Black cheese is still cheese, I approve
Also, Sunday September 15th is a Monday… I’ve seen so many meeting invites with dates and days that don’t match lately…
