Oh you missed the email? Well the deadline to opt out of binding arbitration has already passed.
Not labeled on/off, the toggle just changes between green and blue.
I installed Fedora Linux recently and have no idea if I enabled or disabled 3rd party repositories
It is no longer just scumbag design it has become standard design
It's still scumbag design.
The scumbags are winning.
But if they have nothing to gain ... yeah actually I think that's worse somehow...
I miss the days when buttons had words on them instead of hieroglyphics.
Both was good. Both is an option. People seem to forget.
It's difficult to separate 'you like how things worked when you were fifteen' from honest appreciation of how much Windows XP era design was just better. Not the giant-head video player, or the Fisher-Price color scheme, but like-- remember when things looked like things? Remember when each icon was allowed to be a different color? We let people shit up plain text with sculpted multicolor emoji spam, but the parts that do stuff better be all one shade of gray sharply delineated from another shade of gray.
And then you go to Settings / Privacy / Data and all you find is a link to the privacy policy and terms of service.
So you search online and find several relevant posts on a support forum, such as:
- I cannot find this setting
- The "on" option is grayed out
- I tried to set this to "on" but I got a cryptic error message saying to contact my system administrator
All of them have been open for at least a year, hundreds of users clicked the "I also have this issue" button, and none of them have any useful replies.
Your only option is to not use the service. Fee Fi Fo Fum.
Just go to about:dont-grind_my-bones/39a667aa-b5c5-441c-9df9-0f75e3fc588d and configure it there. It's so straightforward and obvious that it's literally your fault if you didn't notice it.
Aaaand it's deprecated
Our telemetry data determined that no one was using it so we decided to drop that feature.
That just happened to me!
I was looking to solve a Linux issue and the Internet said
It's simple. just use "sudo ̪͊̽͊̀̎̇̄̆̾̅̊̕͝͝p̶̗̝̬̾̃̈́́̿͜ͅa̵̹̜̅s̴̠͉̩̖̣̹̞͇̰̻̦͛͂̽̈̅̒͗̉͋͘͝ṡ̵̺̮̫̲̙̙̹̻̹͉͎̣͌͆̔̐̓̊̽́̌̂̓̚̚̚ͅw̸̮̠̪̤̏̍͛̔̚o̶̡̫̟͖͎̣̫̹̰͕̰̝̻͎̽͛͛̃͒͂̆̋̂͜͠r̵͖̯̭̮͗͒̍̅̆͊̕͜͜͝͝d̷̛̛͖̮͍͉̣̙̀̐͂͌͊͌̃̌͂͑́̚͠ ̵̛̱̲̳̫̳̫̟͉͙̎̽̑̈́͌̎̑̀̒̕ͅ1̸̯͍͓̝̦̦̖͖͉͎̪̬̹̝̏͛́͋͗̒̓̇̾̄̍͠1̵̱̭̰̥̹̟̰̲̙͗̽̆́̀̐2̴̹̯̼̲͎̯͈̈́͠͠2̷̰̤̖͓̫͈̅̑́̂͋̈́̎̀̿͐̿̑͠3̴̫̩̫̻̕7̷͎̫̖̦̰̫̳̭͉͎̍͆̔̈̒͑̈́̈̚͝"
How silly of me not to know that.
My favorite is "I had to hack the website by making a userscript to access the option afforded to EU users and I have no idea if it actually affected anything"
I'm not even sure what ground up bones would do for bread. Is calcium a binding agent or something?
I looked it up because i also always wondered. Turns out bone marrow can replace the butter used to make bread
But.. you don't use butter to make bread. Flour and water, maybe some yeast. If you're using butter to make dough, then it's some kind of pastry.
I mean you can definitely use butter in a bread, it's just not required
In addition, just hear me out: It is giant's bread.
you need fat to make toast bread, what a lot of americans and people in the west default to imagining when you say "bread".
the fat prevents longer gluten chains from forming, which makes the bread light and airy, compared to traditional "proper" bread which tends to be denser and chewier and oh no now i'm hankering for levain
As an American, what the fuck is toast bread?
bread you put in a toaster? or do you people put baguettes in your toasters?
Yeah, certainly there are many different kinds of bread. I'm sure I was overly broad in designating all dough made with butter as pastry. I was responding to the previous comment , which I interpreted as implying that butter(or bonemeal, in a pinch) is a necessary ingredient in bread.
And no matter what it's set to, the EULA you clicked through when you signed up for an unrelated service from the same company gives them the permission.
It's just us and our 399 partners.
Fee! Fi! Fo! Fum! I smell the violation of civil liberties
OR YOU COULD JUST LEAVE THE FUCKING WEBSITE
I'd prefer to steal the golden goose, if that's an option?
