Sorry, it was unclear in my comment. By “it’s actually part of the Mozilla Corporation” I was referring to Firefox, not Mozilla Foundation

for anybody that wants to disable it, go to the settings and search for “Allow websites to perform privacy-preserving ad measurement”

(or through the dom.private-attribution.submission.enabled flag in about:config)

Just adding that as I understand this, donations to the Mozilla Foundation cannot go towards Firefox, because it’s [edit: Firefox is] actually part of the Mozilla Corporation. To help with funding Firefox people can consider purchasing the Corporation’s other products (VPN/Relay/Monitor), or purchasing merch.

See more here on the AMA on Reddit, and this thread

It can be 👍

I also didn’t have a need for it and wanted to disable it and I found browser.tabs.hoverPreview.enabled in about:config (set it to false to disable).

There’s also browser.tabs.hoverPreview.showThumbnails to only disable the image preview but not the new layout of the tooltip (there’s also a corresponding option for it in the main settings)

• Lights: Switching to light sources/bulbs with lower brightness/warmer light temperature (lower Kelvin/K-value) 3 hours before bed. (Light affects our sleep-wake cycle, aka the circadian rhythm. Our brain processes bright light as “the sun is still up so it’s not time to sleep yet”)
• Screens: Gradually dimming electronic screens until bedtime (Computer: using F.lux and lowering the brightness gradually in the graphics card’s control panel. Phone: with a built-in Night/Dark Mode option that you can schedule or by using an app like Twilight). // Don’t take your devices to the bedroom, or keep them far away from the bed and set them on silent/shut them off.
• Try not to sleep for more than 8 hours so you’ll need the sleep the next night.
• Sleeping in a closed and completely dark room (including covering LED lights on electronics, or using a face mask) with something that makes a white noise (fan/air purifier/etc.)
• Food: Having a light meal 3-3.5 hours before bed and light snacks 1.5-2 hours before bed, to not put the body into overdrive digesting a heavy meal or cause heartburn/indigestion, and also to not go to sleep hungry and get distracted by that.
• If you sleep on your stomach with your head to the side, you can use a thin and narrow side pillow (but firm) along your torso to support your shoulder on the side that your head is pointing to. (you can also use a thin pillow for your head to not strain your neck/spine - there are ones made for kids if needed)

On the humorous side:

• My Brother, My Brother And Me - 3 brothers giving not-so-serious advice to listeners, reacting to questions from Yahoo Answers (when that was a thing), and later adding other segments, and overall being funny/silly (note: sometimes they make references that go over my head, but they’re still enjoyable. These references might be best enjoyed by midwestern Americans who grew up in the late 80’s/early 90’s)
• My Dad Wrote A Porno - 3 people reacting to an “erotica” book series that one of the guys’ dad published (I would say the books are maybe only 5%-20% explicit, depending on the chapter) (some of the characters’ voices can be annoying/grating, and the narrator tends to repeat sentences after they react to them which can be annoying as well)
• No Such Thing As A Fish - the behind-the-scenes staff of the show QI bring up interesting facts and tidbits from history/nature/etc. (each episode is split into 4 parts where each member brings up a fact and the others react to it and bring up related facts)
• If I Were You - Jake & Amir from CollegeHumor giving advice to listeners (mostly in a sarcastic/tongue-in-cheek way but sometimes genuinely), mostly about relationships/dating
• SmartLess - Jason Bateman and Will Arnett (Arrested Development) and Sean Hayes (Will & Grace) interview a famous person each episode where only one of the hosts known who it is beforehand (it gets better after the first few episodes, though some conversations are less funny/entertaining than others)
• Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend - Conan interviews a famous person each episode (I like the interview part better than the introduction, and similarly to Smartless some conversations are less funny than others)
• If you watched The Office (US) - Office Ladies - Jenna and Angela from the show reacting to each episode of the show and bringing up behind-the-scenes stuff (some of episodes include interviews with other cast members/staff) (might not be as humorous as the others but still fun to listen to)

Thank you, that works!

I haven’t caught up on most of these so I don’t know if they stay as good but:

I use Feedbro in Firefox (also available in Chrome/Brave/etc.), and also FeedDemon on Windows which still works well even though it’s not maintained anymore

No problem!

btw to make the changes apply you need to restart your PC or run CMD as an admin and run gpupdate /force

If it’s still relevant, maybe this will work:

1. Open gpedit (if you’re on Windows Home you can put gpedit on the system through CMD - scroll to the “Run Command Prompt” section)
2. Navigate to Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Windows Update
3. In the “Legacy Policies” folder:

• Enable “No auto-restart…”
• (that folder also has a policy to “Allow Automatic Updates immediate installation” but apparently it doesn’t do anything according to Microsoft)

4. In the “Manage end user experience” folder:

• Disable “Always automatically restart…”
• Enable “Configure Automatic Updates” and select “4 - Auto download and schedule the install”, then select “Every Day” and choose an hour for the installation
• Enable “Display options…” and select “2 - Disable all notifications…”
• Enable “Turn off auto-restart…” and set the active hours when you don’t want it to restart

edit: adding that you can also use a program like WAU Manager to automatically download and install the updates in a specific time (screenshot for the settings, click on Save and Apply after choosing the settings)

Pro- the SSD will live longer
Con- the RAM will fill up more, especially when opening resource-heavy pages (though there’s a way to unload inactive tabs so that might not be that big of a deal, and especially if you have enough RAM to spare)

Personally I’ve been using memory-only cache for about a decade (half on HDD, half on SSD) and I don’t think I’ve noticed any adverse effects from that. (though I rarely have more than 5 tabs open at once)

Especially for sleeping issues, but also for eye strain, I recommend using a program like flux (for a computer) that allows you to set the color temperature for the day and the gradually lower it further at evening and night. This along with dimming or using different lower temperature lightbulbs in the evening/night (not being exposed to bright/florescent lights) really helped me with falling asleep.

edit: also, lowering the brightness on the monitor itself (mine is set to 27) and in the graphics card control panel (39 for me), and then manually lowering it further in the evening/night in the control panel (25>15>9>0 is how I do it)

Also, related, is there a way to list communities available from a specific instance? Like if I wanted to see all communities local to Lemmy.world or something (that’s not my local instance), can I do that? If so, how?

Click on Communities at the top of the page, https://lemm.world/communities (make sure the selected tab is Local), though unfortunately it’s a paged list and not all communities in one page.

check out https://lemmyverse.net/communities for searching for communities, though not all will show up. You can also use a specific instance to search for communities like - https://lemmy.world/search?q=networking&type=Communities (make sure the All tab is selected)
