I tried to read this with the narrator’s voice from Disco Elysium

With regard to what if every person on earth gets a similar buffer: Assuming everyone initially becomes aware of this feature, I would imagine communities would pool up their storage by connecting them via references to other member’s name or identity (similar to linked lists). They could store their collective thoughts in the form of megathreads similar to how Twitter users do it, in plain text or making use of links to Babel pages as suggested in another comment.

Intelligence agencies would be extremely efficient in cramming information in their limited shared buffers. Imagine they observe ‘CakeShoeRock’ written in the buffer and immediately conclude they are in a time loop because they anticipated this exact scenario and developed a comprehensive set of protocols and a system of condensed code words to follow for the same in advance.

I hate having to toggle off legitimate interests off vendors too. The very premise of this option has been anti-consumer from the beginning.

Now it makes sense. The transparent nature of the image obscured the outline of the switch in my screen from which I was initially unable to identify that it represented the different cases of viewport width of the switch.

Thanks for the clarification!

I can relate to this too. I try to fight the site out of spite by furiously clicking on the back button of the browser to get me to the home page, and it does show the page for a split second before undoing the redirects and pulling me back to the page I was originally in. In the end I have to succumb to using the website’s own navigation buttons to incrementally head back to the starting page.

Sometimes it becomes a race between me and the site implementing infinite scroll to see if I can reach the footer before the site can load more content; the only time I curse my internet connection for being good

The part about having proper print layout of the site is actually interesting to me. I just learned about it recently and was curious about how there was explicit CSS support for this. This introduces an entirely new perspective on how a website should be designed to offer reliable print support that I am willing to learn.

I agree with this to some extent. For even wider lines of text occupying the entire desktop screen, it actually becomes hard for me to discern which line I am currently reading, causing me to start reading the entire line all over again.

I’ve witnessed it is part of dark patterns in most websites. Often the more consumer friendly option in a consent dialog box is greyed out as if the option itself is unavailable. Even I would’ve been fooled by it if not for my habit of clicking on the button regardless.

RSS Feed was a godsend for me, because it finally relieved me of the chore of visiting a webpage of news site to look for latest news.

Agree on the hostile UX of news sites. The experience is worsened extensively when viewing on mobile.

I was indeed getting the vibes of reading this article. Setting aside the topic of the website, I enjoy reading articles explaining stuff with this type of humour. Sadly I wouldn’t be able to ask ChatGPT to write me one that would leave me with the same satisfaction as this one.

Apart from Youtube, I haven’t encountered any website force autoplaying videos. Maybe that’s because of the filter list set in my adblock.

That includes sites which use animated gifs in order to simulate playing a silent video, to trick you into clicking on it.

Now that’s just dirty play.

Unfortunately I am unable to grasp what the attached image is trying to insinuate. Could you provide some context?

I was intrigued by the existence of a Vim based application for browsing, but not surprised.

How would I come about ensuring compatibility for websites with multiple interactive elements for viewing in Vimium? Do I install and test the website on Vimium during development too?

All of your points are valid, in fact I’ve personally had the same opinions for points 2, 3, 5 and 6 for a while. I wish I could upvote for each of your points

Poor people have it.

Rich people need it.

If you eat it, you die.

What is it?

Just think of it as ‘Game Over’. This is just to ensure the responses stay within the scope of the question.

It was nice to have someone take this stand and I fully support this. People switching over to Linux already have their own stuff to deal with and need time to accustom to their new environment, and forcing them to embibe ‘FOSS’ philosophy and other strong opinions as held by others in Linux communities is only going to turn them off.

Listened to it for the first time two days ago and kept it going since
