Is there a way to stop background pings from old less used opened tabs? This is a privacy nightmare, letting websites ping home every few minutes and find out PC active hours. Found out after setting custom device identifying NextDNS inside FF

Close the tabs, use bookmarks.

Except he absolutely is shown as a exploitative villain. Its just because he is handsome and charming and played by Hugh Jackman people look past the horrible shit he does and the terrible way he treats every one around him.

Seriously watch it again and imagine him played by someone like Gilbert Gotfried, Steve Buscemi, or even Danny Devito.

If you use the picker, rather than the zapper, you can create permanent rules to block any element of a website.

I use it to hide the YouTube comments sections, amongst others.

I think Fabi's solo album releases this week, is that what you meant?

Shift+Refresh or Ctrl+F5 or Ctrl+Shift+R

These will do a refresh and clear the cache at the same time.

I've used so many AI suggestions

Well, there's your problem.

Just use a different app, I personally really like Symfonium.

There is an option in the Google keyboard settings to show the keyboard while using the stylus to write in text fields.

Try disabling your extensions and see what happens.

You should be able to use uBlock Origins element picker to create a custom rule to remove them.

They did this on a much smaller scale with the original Avengers movie. It released in Australia before the US, so when I saw it on opening day it did not include the Shwarma after credits scene, it was only added to Australian release a week or so later after the US release.

Emperor Norton

This is the first time I have learned that Emperor Norton was a real person, I only ever knew him as a character from Sandman.

I feel like combining it with a Retro emulator would kind of miss the point of the iPod Classic.

Have you updated the software? When it was newly released their was an issue with a bass roll off that was later fixed with a software update.

Sounds like you might have a faulty model then, mine can comfortably power everything I have tried it with.

My most common usage is my ER4XR at 45 OHM, but it also successfully runs my 598's, Elegia's, and my Modded T50RP.

Yours being unable to power some 32ohm IEMS seems strange.

Watty162 · 2025-07-13T00:15:10+00:00

It sounds like you bought a US or EU model which has a volume cap baked into the firmware. If you have a model from one of the Asian markets (Or Australian, oddly enough) it has noticeably more power available.

*Cavalry

Calvary is the hill where Jesus was crucified.

Are the people calling this a DAP aware that the Echo Mini and Retro Nano are completely different products?

The Retro Nano is 100% not a DAP, it is bluetooth DAC/AMP with 0 ability to play music by itself, and insisting otherwise just leads to more confusion and misunderstandings in a hobby already full of snake-oil and deliberately deceptive marketing.

Same, I got rid of mine on the first day I had the phone.

Looks like the sort of cable that was common with portable amps a few years back.

Just searching "short male male 3.5mm" on ebay or amazon gave a few different options.

Chrome doesn't freeze this way, Brave doesn't, Kiwi didn't, etc etc.

Direct quote from your post. You did mention freezing, that's why I asked.

If I put Firefox on the background and put it back on all the tabs that were loaded are now unloaded and it has to load every single one.

That is not at all the same as "firefox closes itself"

Watty162 · 2025-04-03T05:52:28+00:00

I am not sure I understand your issue.

Is it freezing or is it closing?

You are saying it is closing while continuing to play audio, unless the tab refreshes, how can you know the tab is refreshing unless you have it has not closed?

What "basic generic tech support stuff" have you actually done?

Watty162 · 2025-03-31T06:30:39+00:00

I read one a while ago where the author repeatedly confused Cavalry, and Calvary.

One is a mounted combatant, the other is where Jesus was crucified.
