3 Horror Movies From 3 Countries
  • Tigers Are Not Afraid is great, definitely worth seeing.

    I really liked One Cut of the Dead (Japan) and The Wailing (South Korea) a lot too.

    Ad free YouTube App
  • You can override the icon anyway. Instead of using the X app, I have a Firefox shortcut for x.com but it's called Twitter and has the bird app icon instead of a big X.

    Ad free YouTube App
  • Is there a reason it needs to be an app? I was in a similar situation and what worked best for me was just replacing the YouTube app with a Firefox shortcut to YouTube.com. I'm still logged in and the uBlock Origin extension strips the ads out. I think the Sponsorblock extension should also work with this system.

    In general I've just started replacing apps with annoying ads with either a Firefox webapp or a Firefox shortcut. Works great and reduces the app count on my phone too.

    I need to stop.
  • It's because citrus is acidic, it's a very common trigger of acid reflux. Same goes for tomatoes, especially in a concentrated form like a sauce.

    Another trans candidate in Ohio faces disqualification vote for omitting deadname
  • Believe me, I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case, and I 100% think this is wrong.

    My take here is that filling out a government form and having it be rejected because you didn't put required information that isn't stated as required into a box that the form doesn't have and getting denied/made to redo it is an extremely plausible scenario. In the case of a cis person being denied this way, it's a mundane bit of bureaucratic nonsense that nobody would blink an eye at.

    The article states:

    The law has been in place in some form for decades, though it’s rarely been used and usually arises in the context of candidates wishing to use a nickname.

    The fact that this law has been identified as a real problem for trans people and that there is a quote in the article from the (Republican) governor saying "this is bad, we should fix it" strikes me as acknowledgement that this dumb rule is disproportionately affecting trans people and should be fixed.

    We have a depressing number of real examples of malicious use of the law against trans people, so all I'm saying is that this one doesn't seem worth getting fired up about unless there is evidence of actual malicious intent here.

    Another trans candidate in Ohio faces disqualification vote for omitting deadname
  • I'm going with Hanlon's Razor on this one and assuming this is just a really stupid bureaucratic failure where a form doesn't have a box for required info that it doesn't tell you is required. Curious if there are similar examples for name changes by cis people, which I wouldn't expect to be newsworthy. Regardless it needs to be fixed.

    Why Linux is Best for Most People
  • Before you can even entertain the arguments in this article, don't you first need to address the barrier to entry of installing an operating system in the first place? This isn't even a hurdle specific to Linux, I don't really think the average user has the technical know-how to install any operating system onto a computer.

    Good Luck Guys!
  • The issue is that this presents as false equivalence. While that is clearly not what you believe for this situation, the meme reads as a difficult choice between two equally bad options.

    Do you use a coffee subscription? Which one?
  • I've been subscribed to Moustache Coffee club for years and they're wonderful. They send their coffees in a vacuum sealed package so you can hold onto them for months and whenever you open it they'll still be fresh. Selection is great and ever rotating, I've had positive experiences with the customer service for the rare mishap (which is usually USPS's fault), would recommend.
