Google announced that starting in June 2024, ad blockers such as uBlock Origin #uBO will be disabled in Chrome 127 and later with the rollout of Manifest V3 (#Mv3).

The new #Chrome manifest will prevent using custom filters and stops on demand updates of blocklist. Only #Google authorized updates to browser extension will be allowed in the future, which mean an automatic win for Google in their battle to stop YouTube #AdBlockers .

#ManifestV3 is deceitful and threatening to your privacy, and now is a good time to switch to #Firefox (@mozilla) and/or #TorBrowser (@torproject) if you haven't done so already!

EDIT for clarification: MV3 in Chrome will still allow some ad blocking extensions, but will severely limit their blocking ability and even restricts pre-set filters to 50 MAX.

We upgraded to the new Vector (2022) Mediawiki theme for the postmarketOS wiki. We think there might be some room for a few CSS improvements, if you have any recommendations then do let us know!

You can switch back to the old theme in your user preferences.

We've also disabled the "Talk" pages as they're mostly either old or not very useful, you can still access them manually by editing the URL.

The old domain we used to host #ArchLinuxARM for #PinePhone / #PineTab2 has expired.

Open /etc/pacman.conf in vim, nano or any text editor and change "p64.arikawa-hi.me" domain to "archmobile.mirror.danctnix.org"

You can also use sed to do this in one line:

sudo sed -i 's/p64\.arikawa-hi\.me/archmobile\.mirror\.danctnix\.org/g' /etc/pacman.conf

#pine64 #pinetab2 running #danctnix and #phosh.

I'll post a full review later, but for my very limited use case (reading books from a #Syncthing synchronized library), this tab is amazing!

Sure, WiFi doesn't work (yet), but that's okay :))

You don’t often see outward facing seats on transit vehicles, but being able to gaze out the window rather than at an ad across the aisle makes for a pretty enjoyable ride! (This is the Kuala Lumpur Monorail).

What do you expect in CA?

A Los Angeles homeowner who opened fire on armed intruders said the State of California has suspended his gun license.

Vince Ricci was coming home from the gym when two intruders jumped the fence onto his property and pointed guns at his chest earlier this month.

For those angry over Google's recent moves regarding making it harder to block ads I have suggested before to switch to alternatives such as Peertube and Odysee. One step I had forgetten myself, and one that will send a clear message, is to delete your Google account. Burn your ships and make your new world work.


Here's some easy steps to follow:

Here's a list of some Peertube instances you can look into:

I suggest Tilvids myself as I am geared towards tech content:

Don't forget that whatever instance you make an account on you can see content from other instances. Odysee is another good option although it's future is up in the air:

If you are truly upset over Googles moves than continuing to give them traffic and business is about the worst possible move you can make.
