[Outdated, please look at pinned post] Casual Conversation@lemmy.world•The most stressful part of buying a car is not negotiating with dealers or sellers, it's the unsolicited advice from acquaintances
1·3 年前My wife and I bought her last car at CarMax and it was absolutely haggle and pressure free. We had spent hours prior at a Honda dealership and the pressure for so heavy, it had my wife in tears. We will always use either CarMax or private party in the future.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Some far-right activists and conspiracy theories are advocating against card-payments and for cash, and it's pissing me off
7·3 年前I remember as a kid, seeing a commercial for a credit card where the clown of the ad tried to use cash, inconveniencing the mob behind him and it really stuck with me how unapologetic credit companies were when training their consumers and debt carriers.

Technology@lemmy.world•As Twitter destroys its brand by renaming itself X, Mastodon user numbers are again soaring | TechCrunchEnglish
162·3 年前The term soaring is pretty relative in this case. It’s still completely unknown to the majority of the world. It’s just like Lemmy, where the very few rigid types that absolutely couldn’t stand for one particular thing that happened to their social network will do anything, including cutting their nose off to spite their face rather than continue to use it. That’s why we’re all here and it’s why nobody else but us are coming.
You were so close with your assumption but since I’m 'Murican(pew pew), I’d be classified as an Imperial Asshole.



Rather than rely on an extension, I think I would add the publicly listed up ranges to my hosts file. That will blackhole any connections where a browser extension wouldn’t actually stop anything until it was being processed by the extension.
