@jerry I was reading through a Mastodon "Explore" page and am surprised to find someone saying to be nice to others despite an election result they may have not liked 😁 nice

I feel like every time I get this suddenly upset at a good or service, it ends up being an overreaction

Thanks to @arraybolt3 I was able to fix the issue. Honestly I overreacted when the website I was using was able to change my settings and bookmarks, it shouldn't be able to do that without a good prompt from the browser and outside of the website view....
Also Firefox Sync didn't *replace* my bookmarks anyway, but *merged*.

That said, my settings are still messed up, but thankfully my carefully created site cookie whitelist wasn't deleted from. So there's that!

Does anyone know how I can get my bookmarks and settings back? I didn't tell it to sync, I just signed in to a Mozilla website and Firefox just decided to overwrite everything 😡😡

Ugh, I signed in to a Mozilla website and it just deleted all my bookmarks and settings from my browser! I hate this so much.

This shader shows the extent of your fovea on your visual field:

"Look at any specific point and you should clearly see the extent of your fovea (the stars only seem to be rotating in a small circle at the center of your vision). Move your head back and forth to see it grow/shrink. Works better in full screen mode."

@mike @s31bz One of my relatives who works from home had the same issue; battery swelling pushing the touchpad out. I removed the battery for him and he would just power it from the wall.

Is this an HP laptop by any chance? Bang & Olufsen IIRC?

@juanjimver I have to appreciate Cleik, that's pretty awesome

What it I fused two different Smash characters into one?

I used a random number generator and the list of fighters in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate and I got these results:

@rntz I like it! My brother makes music on BeepBox/derivatives. I'll send him this, I think he'll appreciate it :)

If you call your political opponents vermin, you are dehumanizing people who bear the image of God.

If you call your political opponents garbage, you are dehumanizing people who bear the image of God.

To disagree with a position and make an argument is good and wise and helpful. To dehumanize and mock does not follow the way of love.

So, thoughts on the new #NintendoMusic app?

@arraybolt3 I just did this with Mozilla Thunderbird. Funny I see this just now. I typed out something and triggered some unknown actions. I hope something didn't get deleted or something....

After watching a bunch of YouTube vehicle hit-and-run videos, I'm beginning to like the idea of front license plates being mandatory, because of how many times they break off and get left behind 😆

@mike My philosophy is that the user does the thinking and the computer does the computing. The user is the intelligence, and the computer is the calculator.

I personally avoid AI, since if I'm doing what I do correctly it doesn't have much to offer me.
