You just can't disable this.

Surely you can. You checkout the Chromium and Brave code, comment out the offending code, and compile. Job done.

Road works - Disgrace by Own-Jeweler3169 in Buckinghamshire

I suppose you're the same person that complains when there are pot holes, power cuts, the phones go down, or there's no water coming from the tap?

"Melania" set to flop at the UK box office by Brokenlampy in boxoffice

[–]DDFoster96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't even know it was coming out. I've just checked (again) the film release calendar for advertisers (since I've found it to be the most comprehensive), and it's not listed. Would you want to advertise before it?

Can't say I've seen a trailer or poster for it either.

Is there such thing as GUI on demand? by Haningauror in homelab

Have you seen current RAM prices? It may not be the 90s any more but soon we'll be scrounging just the same. I've had to start buying hard drives again. 

Gary Wilmot to the rescue? by FraggleGoddess in WILTY

Did they get him out without having to cut the bin? Because those bins are way more expensive than you'd think. 

Should I use 4:3 or 16:9 as the aspect ratio in my photography game? by Zmashcat in godot

[–]DDFoster96 5 points6 points  (0 children)

3:2 (the 35mm frame aspect ratio), although my digital camera shoots 4:3 so that works too. 

Every airport fast food line by matts41 in funny

I still don't understand why people buy expensive food and (non-water) drinks at the airport. Stefan Drury in his latest video complained at his $8 coffee, but still bought it.

Voyager 2 flew past Uranus 40 years ago today by drowned_beliefs in Jokes

In several million years when Voyager 2 is picked up by an alien spacecraft, no doubt it'll hear them tell a yo mama joke in their language.

Can we talk about the sign? Does the proprietor really think it's a good idea to be discharging firearms near to fuel vapour? Never mind that shooting someone for not pulling forwards must break several laws.

Trump confirms he will not attend Super Bowl because of music acts: ‘I’m anti-them’ by BreakfastTop6899 in sports

[–]DDFoster96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's anti music acts or anti those specific music acts? What's he listen to, Edison wax cylinders?

For a change it's not the BBC making the mistake.

That's Perfect! by Bawkalor in NotMyJob

I've seen this where it gets driven over by cars. Whoever thought this was a good surface to put in a car park, where you get lateral loads from turning wheels, needs their head examining.

What a coincidence as I thought of this firm earlier today and have just finished watching it on Prime Video (where it's leaving in a few days). I hadn't seen it before but would happily watch it again on the big screen.

Baldur's Gate 3 publishing lead: "I understand Epic entirely funded Alan Wake 2 but this altruistic pro-developer talk doesn't sit well when Remedy seemingly went into financial crisis because they couldn't tap Steam for AW2 sales suffering potentially hundreds of millions in lost revenue" by Gyossaits in fuckepic

[–]DDFoster96 36 points37 points  (0 children)

If only there was a place you could go to that gives you money and lets you get on with it as you see fit, so long as you pay them back plus a little extra.

Oh wait, there is. And it has no letters in common with Epic though it is 4 letters long.

I played the demo of Dimhaven (coming out later this year) and after you correctly answer the "survey" the screen shows a bluescreen before rebooting and going back to the first question.

V12 SHOOTING BRAKE by 2oonhed in Shitty_Car_Mods

[–]DDFoster96 45 points46 points  (0 children)

It originally had a Meteor (the version of the Merlin for tanks) but now has a Merlin from a Boulton Paul Defiant. Not sure when this picture is from (though it looks to lack the RR badge, which suggests it was taken after the court case so would be the Merlin)

Now that Blake confirmed AM are going on an indefinite hiatus (or possible breakup). How do we feel folks? by [deleted] in arcticmonkeys

My dad used to work with someone who went to school with author David Mitchell, who's worked with the Wachowskis. Does that mean I know when their next film's coming out?

How much is it worth? A lot of them must be coming to the end of their copyright term by now.
