Thanks for letting us know. Will get that fixed asap. Until then, all the available subscription links seem to be working from this page:

Is there even the equivalent to the script/add blocking plugin system for chrome?
uBlock Origin works just fine and has an option to block JS and also options to block stuff with a click..

I hope . . . erm, poke to please. 
#529 Re: Off-topic » The Joke Thread » 2024-07-05 15:02:25
THUD . . . or maybe spud? That is biologically impossible. Potatoes are waaaay too gnarly for 2 halves to look alike. Maybe more coffee?
#530 Re: Off-topic » The Joke Thread » 2024-07-04 00:49:56
Lighten up, @golinux! This is a joke thread . . .
Yeah . . . it's a joke for sure . . .
Sorry, couldn't resist . . . hehehe
#531 Re: Off-topic » The Joke Thread » 2024-07-04 00:46:33
Nice to see a new face in here . . .

As someone once said, you are only young once, but you can remain immature indefinitely! tongue
Very sad and very true but . . . somehow (and thankfully) I missed that memo so can't really relate to the glorification of youth. I was once trapped in a young body and had to associate with silly young ones and did so as little as possible. Adult company and conversation was still rather boring but a bit more interesting . . .

Has there been a timewarp? Are we back in highschool?
#534 Re: Off-topic » The Joke Thread » 2024-07-02 19:31:20
@greenjeans . . . Thanks for the catch-up! I would also prefer in-person but I think we'll have to settle with technology if we want it to happen. Specific info about the meet is posted on the devuan-dev mail list a few days prior. At least we are TZ compatible . . .
Just for you, I'll have a look at the images even though memes are so not my thing. I am more of a word person . . .

You keep digging that hole deeper . . . the choice is yours . . . but please, let's not waste any more of Devuan's resources on this nonsense.
Afterthought . . . I was just washing dishes and remembered a little story/tale/fable from decades ago . . . where or how it came to me is lost in time.
A monk lived high in the mountains and winter was coming. A devotee came before winter set in to offer the monk a gift of many books filled with teachings and wisdom. In the spring, the donor returned and asked if the monk found the books useful and the monk replied, "Oh yes, they were very warm books".

Hahahaha! Yes, I have had at least 3 different translations sitting on a shelf for decades.
The only "sin" is not seeing things as they are . . .
#537 Re: Off-topic » How World Leaders are Scrambling to Secure Food in the Shadows » 2024-07-01 15:33:56
Yes. Humans live in the confusion of the movie they create in their own minds from misinterpretation of incoming sensory data. Words just muddy things further . . .
#538 Re: Off-topic » How World Leaders are Scrambling to Secure Food in the Shadows » 2024-07-01 14:29:53
As usual, you are missing the point . . . maybe you are a confused bot . . .
#539 Re: Off-topic » How World Leaders are Scrambling to Secure Food in the Shadows » 2024-07-01 13:48:01
Good grief! Have you done no research?! There are many types of reproduction not just sexual but intentional human manipulation of genetic components is something that only imbalanced human minds could conceive and accomplish. That hubris will eventually scramble plant, animal and human reproductive systems in unrecoverable ways. Oh well . . . maybe we'll get another chance the next world cycle . . .

Oh, my dear greenjeans . . . what a wonderful surprise to see your post! It has been waaaay too long since you stopped by!! Yes, Hamlet was on to something that so few can understand but for very different reasons. Why don't you drop by our weekly Jitsi meet every Thursday at 20:30 UTC. That's 3:30 Central in DST and I think you're in Mountain. It usually doesn't last too long and we can hang out for a while after it's over. Bonus . . . fsmithred is usually there too!
#541 Re: Off-topic » The Joke Thread » 2024-06-30 17:49:55
@aluma . . . You have good taste. But then I'm prejudiced since that's what I grew up on and swam in for 40 years.
#542 Re: Off-topic » The Joke Thread » 2024-06-30 15:11:18
Disappointed?? And here I was thinking these jokes must have been well-known already, since anyone could find them online within a few seconds or so on any competent search engine. Or at the most a few minutes.
Why anybody would be interested in searching for "jokes" is unthinkable to me?! Any word play from this end has been something that popped into my own mind. And if I have a craving for the most excellent word play, I'll read some Shakespeare not this thread . . .

They are the most destructive and cruel animals on this planet . . .
They are the most destructive, cruel, arrogant and deluded animals on this planet . . .

Human beings are not animals.
Perhaps you are not paying attention. They are the most destructive and cruel animals on this planet . . .
#545 Re: Off-topic » The Joke Thread » 2024-06-29 20:14:35
@quickfur . . . Your honesty is appreciated if disappointing . . .

Natural selection does its thing all the time and at all ages. This is not news . . .

If not you, perhaps someone else will eventually provide a more universally compatible fork.
#548 Re: Other Issues » Code written by AI » 2024-06-28 20:37:48
You should be asking Debian because they are upstream for Devuan. Until then, blathering over a what if is rather a waste of time and bits . . .
I long for analog days . . .
#549 Re: Off-topic » Just for fun ... » 2024-06-28 20:29:52
You are not wrong . . . but I go to very few places on the internet. Mostly the machine just sits here turned off or on and doing nothing. I do play solitaire but even that reflexive habit is fading. It is rather liberating to let go of useless habits. The joke thread still has a hook though . . .
#550 Re: Off-topic » Just for fun ... » 2024-06-28 17:09:36
. . . you might as well burn your internet router and go back to live in a cave.
I kind of already did that a few decades ago.
Except that the exploits will then come through your aiye-phone . . .
Can't if you don't own one.
