What is it about laying on the floor when you're overwhelmed that makes everything feel so much better?

When God has ceased to answer your prayers, it feels good to distance yourself from Heaven.

Reblogging again. Firefox is an excellent, safe and fast browser and everyone should consider using it.

[badgraph1csghost]

Don’t just consider it. If you have the ability to switch to Firefox, this is your official notice to do it.

Stop everything you’re doing and go download and install Firefox.

If you’re saying, “well, I need Chrome because I need such-and-such extension for my job”, the computer will not explode if you install another browser. Use Chrome ONLY for work tasks and use Firefox for everything else. If you’re concerned about losing your bookmarks, Firefox can import your Chrome bookmarks.

[ID: Firefox Library window. The “Import and Backup” panel is expanded, displaying the option, “Import Data from Another Browser”, which is also circled with a red MS Paint ellipse. ID end.]

And, don’t forget to install uBlock Origin while you’re at it.

[badgraph1csghost]

Forgot a thing. Subscribe to Mozilla VPN for bonus points. It’s basically the only truly secure VPN service in the world right now.

For $5 a month, you can completely conceal your online activities from your ISP in a manner that isn’t just immediately monetised or turned over to the cops. No, it’s not free, it does cost money, but the money doesn’t go to line a billionaire’s pockets.

I wonder how much of this is because of work/school from home forcing people to use Chrome so all their stupid monitoring softwares and platforms can work.

[ms-demeanor]

This is also your reminder that you don’t have to use just one browser. You can use chrome for all the monitoring bullshit your office wants you to run and use firefox for everything else.

Be sure to add the multi account containers extension to your firefox, which allows you to be logged in to multiple accounts on the same website at the same time in the same window but in different tabs.

look on my five open tumblr accounts (not sideblogs, accounts!) ye mighty and despair.

Firefox is super good, folks. It’s good in a general “google shouldn’t own everything in the entire fucking world” sense AND in a “this is an actual good product that does lots of cool shit” sense.

ALSO make sure to add the Ublock origin extension on Firefox - I haven’t seen a youtube ad in five years and you don’t have to either.

While you’re at it, why not add the Wayback Machine extension so that if you go looking for a page that has been taken down the wayback machine will automatically offer you an archived version instead; also handy for documenting people’s shitty takes and winning arguments after they delete the original post!

Worried that Firefox is going to slow down your computer? In benchmarks, modern versions of chrome and firefox are pretty much the same speed but you can still install the auto tab discard extension ANYWAY so that it will snooze unused tabs in order to keep your computer running faster. Set it to sleep, discard, close, and store tags at your discretion!

And while you’re at it: install Firefox as your mobile browser for android and add those extensions to your mobile browser! Mobile adblock is here, baybee, save your data and enjoy a better mobile experience! And install it on iOS! iOS can’t add extensions, but at least it’s better than safari, and if you want a somewhat more private iOS browsing experience try firefox focus for iOS (which is also available on android but you can accomplish the same thing with extensions).

Anyway, firefox is good.

[unicorn-elvis]

Also: in January 2023, Chrome is making some changes to plugin architecture that effectively neutering adblockers.  If you want good adblocking, you won’t have it in Chrome.  Use Firefox

(In fairness, some Chrome-derived browsers like Vivaldi and Opera have openly parted ways with Chrome about this, and more power to them, but Firefox is the way to go.)

[dduane]

Firefox is what we use around here. It’s terrific. 

[capricorn-0mnikorn]

I posted a “Use Firefox!” post a few days ago. But I’m doing it again.

BTW, I also use DuckDuckGo as my search engine, instead of Google. It’s pretty great. Unlike Google, DuckDuckGo has never given me the experience that Hank Green had, when he searched for Kurt Vonnegut books, and got a results page filled with White Supremacy literature.

Never, never, ever.

(oh and in my head, I no longer ‘google something.’ Instead, I ‘Duck around and find out’ 😉)

[whetstonefires]

Also Duckduckgo in its iteration as mobile browser has rolled out a thing where it blocks other apps (besides browsers which operate differently) from placing trackers on your phone, and I’m not gonna switch to it as my main browser but as a backup that throttles the data scraping I’m a big fan.

[jackironsides]

Firefox also blocks cross-site tracking cookies.

i like to think about whether someone with the power of prophecy or otherwise gifted with preternatural foresight would see the world differently by nature of their ability. because they're essentially seeing in another dimension (time).

[valtsv]

guy with the power of prophecy who makes predictions and doesn't specify whether they're relevant now or will become so in the next decade because there's no difference to them and it drives all their friends crazy

“it does not do it for me” is a valid opinion re: any media

[wizardarchetypes]

marine biology is so scary because it’s such a small field. i was giving a talk on cetaceans and afterward a woman approached me with her husband and she said, “you did very well. [husband’s name] actually pioneered the research and published the first paper on that. We were very impressed by you.”

Which is such a scientific interpretation/public education win I will cherish forever but also for the rest of my life any time I give a talk I will be haunted by the knowledge that the world’s leading expert who literally discovered/invented the topic might be in the room,

which is like, the opposite of what you’re supposed to do for stage fright. In fact I never used to experience stage fright but now I will.

[unashamedly-enthusiastic]

There are limitations to the benefits of being a marine biologist

[baggytrousers27]

Just realised something about Bakugou Katsuki from My hero academia.

From the wiki page:

his first name contains "to win" (勝, katsu?) and "self" (己, ki?).

So his name is basically "to win on one's own," but ... [spoilers ahead]

Every single one of his major victories can be attributed to assistance or support from others.

Vs USJ Villains: Kirishima

Vs Uraraka: spectators spoilt her plan.

Vs Todoroki: Shoto lost the will to fight.

Escape from villains: Rescue squad and Mt. Lady.

Deku Vs Kacchan: Izuku's soft heart.

Joint training: cooperation? How shocking.

Cider House: SHOUTOOOOOO!

Vs Nine: WAN FOAH BOTH

Vs Serpenters: Gloat at your own risk

Vs Kid for One: Points to laundry list of other heroes who A) forced him to use the rewind macguffin and B) ran down his benjamin button clock.

oh yeah have i ever told yall of the academic war i have been an unwilling soilder in for the past two years

[narwhalsarefalling]

okay SO. i have two professors that both teach this one subject, but different classes. they have different last names, so i didnt know this at first and espically since they are academic RIVELS at my school, but they are MARRIED. but for the past 8 years they have been in an academic WAR of geospatical sciences data. more accurately, the raster vs vector data debate. i am personally on the side of "both have their pros and cons and can be utalizied to the utmost efficency" but both professors are like, DEADLOCKED in insistanting one is better then the other

so, professor A is my mentor. i like him a lot, and he was the main person that taught me the most abotu Eris and ArcGIS. professor B is a professor i had one for class, and shes nice and knows a lot of little tricks about Eris programming but mostly relies on arcMAP because shes the raster data professor.

and THESE MOTHERFUCKERS. have written no less then 30 papers that is basically like a "re: re: re: re: re: re: vector data is better then raster fuck you" but like, Professionally. and they leave stupid notes in the footnotes that read "Reguardless of Professor A's opinions reguarding the efficency of Vector data, Raster data has a more efficant polygon computing rate and is the most commonly used program on interplantaring mapping" and its HILARIOUS

[narwhalsarefalling]

ive read all of their papers, and its basically like reading an email chain between a married couple arguing over the colors of the kitchen backsplash for their new home. its HILARIOUS. but obviously, because of their differnet last names and because they act like they HATE each other, NOT VERY MANY PEOPLE REALIZES THEYRE MARRIED

until like LAST WEEK

[narwhalsarefalling]

professor B publishes a paper that casually drops the word "husband"

and obviously all the students are like "oh i didnt know u were married!" because we read that shit like how white suburban mothers read People Magazine

[narwhalsarefalling]

and shes like "yeah, its Professor A"

[narwhalsarefalling]

and we all FLIPPED. THE FUCK. OUT

[narwhalsarefalling]

we thought the framed picture of the two of them on professor A's desk was ironic because hes that type of guy

[narwhalsarefalling]

like, you gotta undestand. these two have gotten into YELLING matches in hallways. these two refuse to go onto trips with each other. but apparently they have a system where they quite LITERALLY leave all of their work at work and drive home in seperate cars and literally NEVER mention work at home. it is SO funny

There is nothing better than opening notifications and finding out that several days of your bullshit just made someone's day because they liked and reblogged everything on your dash. I would bake you cookies too if i could

I really cannot emphasize enough the mental health benefits of abandoning the idea that you're special.

[quasi-normalcy]

This goes both ways, both "You don't have to do everything singlehanded" and "You're not uniquely awful."

[joasakura]

One of the best things anyone ever said to me was at the start of my career. I thought I had fucked something up and one of my coworkers said “get over yourself. You’re not so special that you could fuck up something beyond our ability to fix it”

And I have used that same methodology ( maybe a little less mean XD) to this day. And every person I’ve said it to says “god damn that’s comforting”
