Yep. I suspected something like this. Either from the voice rec or the way it emulates keypresses. Good to know, thanks!

The LeGo built-in controllers. They get a lot of shit for being weird and tbh I get it, but they suit my cartoonishly large hands. The detachable feature is pretty useful too since I can use it for Actual Work™ in public without getting looked at like a freak.
Timing and length of ads won’t be consistent between users so this approach doesn’t work.
Using a different client won’t help if the ads are injected directly into the video stream.
I use jabref and this extension quite heavily. I can assure you that it does send the URL to jabref; it gets added as a Misc reference with the site URL in the optional fields. On my firefox / windows system it does show greyed out in the plugins menu like you say, however it adds a jabref logo in the address bar which can be clicked (or alt+shift+j) to send to jabref.
I just tried it on my linux system though, and it doesn’t work for me, either. Suspect some sandboxing weirdness because I have jabref as a flatpak but firefox running natively. I’m just coming back to linux from a few years hiatus so I’m hoping someone better than me at this can check in.
Jabref does have some troubleshooting steps for their extension that might be worth trying though, depending on your install.
Opensuse because I like green.

That’s really hard to answer definitively without context. Obvs there’s the kernel, but that’s similar enough across distros that it’s not really a point of contention that I know of. At a guess it might mean the distro it’s “based” on, but that in itself could mean a few different things. There’s stuff like package management, which you mentioned, and init style. That’s where things get complicated.
Like, Mint is based on Ubuntu, which itself is based on Debian. They share DEB / APT for package management and use systemd for init. OTOH, there’s stuff like OpenSuse, which is originally based on SlackWare, but uses RPM (like redhat) for package management. OpenSuse uses systemd, but I think RedHat uses upstart and SlackWare uses a BSD-style init. It’s been a while since I checked in on those last two.
Of course they could also mean something like choice of desktop environment (as in “A Gnome-based distribution”), default package selection (what the installer refers to as a “base” install). They could mean the general philosophy or release schedule (rolling vs. point release). Or they could even be referring to the userbase (as in; “I use Arch, btw”).
reduce ads and pop-up interruptions
Or they could just … Idk … Not put that shit in there in the first place?
From the article, it seems like it isn’t overriding preferences if you have it set in the app. Looks like it’s an analytics thing in the backend at the moment. Of course, I wouldn’t put it past them to eventually require ID if your settings don’t match their prediction.
Not really, but I have 18 months to migrate all my shit away from there. I’ve already moved a lot of my critical stuff to FOSS software running under win10 and I’m more than passing familiar with Linux. Shouldn’t be a massive deal.
This is also the company that promises to prioritise the vehicle occupants over pedestrians.
Downhill Domination will always get my vote. It’s also excellent in multiplayer.
First game of this style that i really enjoyed. The characters actually feel and play differently, the mechanics make sense and finding synergies is so much fun. My favourite is the silent but I’m not actually that good; haven’t finished the game yet but have gotten damn close a couple times.
Considering how much of Reddit is already bots, I’m sure this will end fantastically.
It’s plausible. Could have been a low-effort typosquatting site loaded with porn ads.
This is about control. If you’re forced to upload ID, the government instantly has a watch list of people and associated sites. Then there’s the flexibility of the definition of porn. Once the legislation is in, anything regarding sex, sexuality, or gender education gets quietly reclassified. Because you know, to these people being anything but straight is inherently pornographic. Then you have a watch list of potential LGBT+ people and allies to harass.
As much as I enjoy hating on Apple, their track record popularising niche technology is admittedly pretty good. They made mp3 players mainstream, then everyone else scrambled to catch up. They made smartphones mainstream, then everyone scrambled to catch up. I wouldn’t be surprised if they managed to pull off the same thing with VR/AR. Just don’t mention the Newton.
I like self checkout as a concept. I don’t like the implementation or what it stands for.
I was, but that’s still really useful to know.
