What's your company policy on adblockers?

That Sophos adblocking may only block domains used just for ads with shared domains like googlevideo.com left unblocked. An in-browser adblocker can block ads from those domains as they can see entire URLs and can also remove elements from pages.

However, sh.reddit.com is a rewrite, so it's not as slow as it used to be. There is also a compact mode which gives the homepage and subreddits a similar layout to old.reddit.com

Maybe try the r slash piracy subreddit and FMHY. Make sure you have the uBlock Origin adblocker extension as those sites have tonnes of ads including pop ups.

You need to make sure the services you are delivering to use the 2.0 track when a 5.1 system isn't detected. You should also use 2.0 as default for DVD and Blu-ray with the 5.1 manually selectable.

All they have to do is a proper downmix where the center channel isn't quiet or missing. Some streaming services and TV boxes just drop it entirely.

Turn off the eco mode/power saving mode and turn off motion smothing. Your TV will become way brighter and clearer. Just google how to do it on your TV brand and year.

Turn on the volume leveler/dynamic compression or dialogue enhancer in your TV settings. You should also turn off eco mode and motion smoothing (google what your brand calls it) while you're at it for a vastly better picture.

They already have WPS Office which is basically that. It even supports Office add-ins, though I wouldn't trust it outside of an internet-less VM.

OpenAI's business model is mind numbingly dumb. They need to introduce a cheaper $10 plus plan and monetise the free version through ads. They will most likely fall if they don't do this and investor money dries up.

What is your approach against the session cookie stealers?

Posted by escalibur@reddit | sysadmin | View on Reddit | 37 comments

An EDR can detect and block infostealers it knows about, and fake ads telling you to paste stuff into the run box are usually how they get onto PCs. Blocking ads and the run box will stop both steps. Also, not allowing admin reduces the damage that any malware can make by not allowing it to access other user accounts.

Just use basic methods. Give user standard accounts instead of admin and install a good EDR, then install an adblocker and block the run box.

I did not realize how easy and accessible local LLMs are with models like Qwen3 4b on pure CPU.

Posted by ___positive___@reddit | LocalLLaMA | View on Reddit | 37 comments

Kyla_3049@reddit

I tried Qwen with the DuckDuckGo plug-in in LM Studio and it was terrible. It could spend 2 minutes straight thinking about what parameters to use. Gemma 4B worked a lot better, though it has a tendency to not trust the search results for questions like "Who is the US president" as it still thinks it's early 2024.

BasedBase/Qwen3-Coder-30B-A3B-Instruct-480B-Distill-V2 is possibly just a copy of Qwen's regular Qwen3-Coder-30B-A3B-Instruct

Just set the temperature to 0 and ask both models the same question. If you get the same or near-identical responses then they should be identical.

You should switch networks then. Voxi and Smarty use both the Three and Vodafone networks together so they should be great and they're way cheaper than EE.

You should get one from Amazon and sideload apps on it. It's £40 on sale and it's yours forever. I like HDO Box and OnStream best, and those are free.

Get a regular one from Amazon when they're on sale and sideload some apps onto it like Bee TV, OnStream, HDO Box, but make sure to only use those apps to watch public domain content ;-) The IPTV guys can F off.

But don't get one from someone providing a preloaded one. Get a regular one from Amazon when they're on sale and sideload some apps onto it like Bee TV, OnStream, HDO Box. I do not endorse piracy. Only use those sites to watch public domain content.

None. Streaming services let you watch whatever you want, whenever you want, and Freesat+Now TV are cheaper than Sky and give you basically everything if you want traditional TV.

For a business to truly last, it needs to not be chasing infinite profit gain. A company which has a ~$1M profit every year with no investors who want more and more every quarter is a company that has full control of itself and is almost destined to last for decades.

This is it. ALWAYS back up critical data locally, and never use shit like Canva which doesn't let you download files in their native format or edit them in offline software. I am a student who lurks this sub and I always use PowerPoint instead of Canva because of this. If Canva shut down then my work would either be non-editable if backup up or gone if not backed up. A local copy of PowerPoint from a fixed release like Office 2024 will ALWAYS work as long as the PC that it's installed on works, or the drive can be booted on another PC.
