What is a BRG?


Business Resource Group. In-office clubs to support minority employees, LGBTQ+, women, etc etc etc.


There are browser extensions, like uBlacklist, that can permanently remove sites from results.

I think you can import filter lists similar to how it works with uBlock Origin and import some AI websites list.


There are some fish decorated with swastikas floating around


And a Star of David

Edit: And a lot of Palestinian flags when sorting by popular.


Just noticed "Chosen Fish" on the leaderboard - sometimes it's a bit less subtle.


IMO it would be much better to redact names instead of deleting the entire stories. Newspapers in other countries like Germany never write the full names, anyway.


You often find them on X though.


The same sources Wikipedia gets its information from. You can not even contribute to Wikipedia without providing outside sources, I think, which are usually websites or books


That Dailydot article is from November 14 2024 and says those were fake accounts.

But apparently she really did create an account, yesterday, and says to have been immediately banned, without posting anything: https://x.com/LauraLoomer/status/1873542021715243076


I see. Having looked into this some more, I honestly think she's an outlier. I'm not familiar with her work, but she seems to make money by being banned from places, using the "most banned woman" label as a badge of honour. Still, would be interesting to get Bluesky's take on this, and some more unbiased detail from somewhere.


As long as no police has confiscated (in most countries this involves the police man touching it, I bet) the equipment you can break it or make it inaccessibility however you like. It's your stuff, after all.


Just had a look: 25 of EU countries use ".", and 2 (Malta and Ireland) use ","


In school (UK) we were told to use ' as the thousands separator in mathematics as it avoids confusion i.e.

1'234.56 1'234,56

Either of these can be understood no matter which format you're used to. Although, I don't think it's ever caught on really (or whether it's even advisable/sensible).


When was this?


~2015


You do not need to, you can also click 'do not consent'


gives me infinite captcha


Try a different DNS provider. In particular, don't use Cloudflare. But there are others that induce this behavior as well.


Is there a reason why this happens? Is there another privacy-first DNS provider you'd recommend?


The owner of archive.today doesn't like Cloudflare[0].

A local dnsmasq[1] is the simplest solution for tech people, and decent odds you already have a local resolver anyway.
