yeah I’m using Voyager, but it turns out I had my feed set to top posts from the last 12 hours so none were showing up

I guess beehaw has dbzer0 defederated because those links don’t work for me

There is no agreed way to pronounce it.

so you agree then that one person doesn’t get to decide what the pronunciation is, and there is no “official” way to say it (although, the majority of people use the hard g - source)

I can absolutely understand that point of view and even agree to an extent.

However, as a counterpoint: creative people being able to support themselves with their work means they can focus on their art instead of it just being a side hobby to their money making job

I missed it tbh

The inventor can call it whatever he wants, but it’s not going to change the pronunciation that has stuck with the general public. Language isn’t some decided upon thing that one person gets to control, it is a tool that naturally evolves and changes over time as it spreads from person to person

Firefox? dead?! you mean the browser that peaked in user share in 2009 and has even declining ever since?? no! say it ain’t so! surely if I post a few more memes to lemmy it will turn things around

omg it’s network chuck!

good to hear. dodi just officially denied the accusations as well:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Piracy/comments/15ivtzk/dodi_verified_release_on_tg_has_crypto_miner/juy98il/

although he claims integritycheck.exe is a windows process, when clearly it is also the name of that miner I linked above

my guess is the dodi account on torrent galaxy, although verified, could be a fake and is putting in these viruses, or maybe the people commenting saying they got the virus from dodi actually got it from that hogwarts legacy crack which originally had this miner.

either way, I always hope the community will take these sorts of claims seriously and investigate to ensure everyone’s safety

it’s not a false positive people are finding. it’s a bitcoin miner called integritycheck.exe

https://www.reddit.com/r/Piracy/comments/15itrip/1337x_admins_allowing_bg3_torrent_with_bitcoin/juxiobs/

it seems like half the people I see who downloaded it say they got a tojan, and half didn’t. Could it possibly be triggering only for certain people? perhaps if their specs are good enough for bitcoin mining or not? or maybe just at random? just spitballing here

There are claims from comments on torrent galaxy that dodis release has the same bitcoin miner:

I hope someone can get to the bottom of this

if only adblockers could block these Firefox ads

well those gaming chairs are definitely not comfort chairs, that’s for sure

wow I wish we learned this kind of stuff in school

definitely!

unfortunately the thing about them eating ticks has been shown to only occur in captive opossums

I personally plan on returning my rechargeable AA batteries and going single use from now on. it’s the little things that help

The Firefox circlejerk. Anytime something remotely related to the internet was brought up there would be 700 comments about how much better Firefox is. I swear, ever since Google announced killing manifest v2 (which ofc isn’t good) half the posts on reddit have been people shilling Firefox.

Opinions about Firefox aside, I hope people can agree the endless circlejerk was getting annoying

Edit: Judging by the speedy downvotes, looks like the Firefox fanatics are on Lemmy too. What a shame, I hate seeing their constant ads.

I saw someone say that Proton implemented their port forwarding in a different way than Mullvad that negates a lot of the issues that caused them to axe it
