I also use it for YouTube videos of things that I don't want Google making recommendations on. For example, if trying to fix something and need to watch a video, I don't want to have home improvement videos in my feed for the next 6 months.

Using it to watch YouTube without logging in currently gets around that whole we don't allow ad blockers thing.

So does uBlock Origin, even while logged in.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I've been getting hit lately with uBlock origin on Firefox if I'm logged in.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Still works most of the time.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Why search with Google? If you think it has better results, use whoogle.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Great, now Whoogle will be in my recommendations for the next 6 months

Shed your shame of pornography, unless that's your kink.

Almost everybody bates, and those who don't for reasons of indignation, I'm not hating on the genuine asexuals or people with health issues that inhibit self-pleasure, are usually the pent up, "only one right way to live" A types I don't enjoy the company of or have any respect for anyway.

It's been how many generations? The puritans that came here to escape living among cool Europeans to self flagellate are beyond dust. Prudes suck. Make lust not greed.

I've heard it's like chocolate: enjoy in moderation

[–] ChillDude69 11 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I only fuck three chocolate bars per day. Is that okay?

You WERE asking how much chocolate we usually fuck, right?

Does dipping my balls in chocolate milk count?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I always thought it would be a fun idea to name a bar "Moderation," with a tagline of "Drink all you want when you're in here!"

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Small tip: don't say "genuine asexuals" as if the ones that do masturbate aren't really asexuals. All asexuals are just as genuine and valid, don't gatekeep.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Fair, though I more meant the people who are effective asexuals because they were taught to be ashamed of sexuality in general and deny any sexual desire they have with vigorous effort to feel "pure."

That's a whole lot different than someone who just doesn't really have those impulses. The former is an act and they have my pity because of how such people are usually raised/abused to be in a constant state of conflict and hatred of their own impulses, the latter is a completely valid identity.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

The correct term for that is sex-averse asexual.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Since we're correcting terminology, I'd stray away from saying "correct" term and tend more towards "currently accepted" term.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

But, in all honesty, the term doesn't matter as long as it's understood and isn't used maliciously.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

I just don't want it cluttering up my search suggestions

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 years ago

Obligatory "I can't unsee wolverine as 2 batmen kissing". Seriously, every time.

Apparently it's short for "god damn" when one finds someone attractive.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago

You should ask yourself the following question: If I dare to open it outside of the Tor Browser, is it even worth my time?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago

'good morning text to brighten her day' cos im a. bad texter and bad at words :)

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I presume whoever made this meme doesn’t understand that incognito mode doesn’t actually protect you from tracking? It just deletes the history on the devices basically.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 years ago

I think they're only worried about like, family or friends finding out. It's not really a concern to them if an entity they don't know has that info.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Which is one of the reasons I use it. If it's not something I will want to pop up in my history later, then it goes in incognito. My history is only for things I plan to return to on a regular basis, not one time searches of random stuff.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

Just use it constantly. I prefer my targeted ads to be baseless shots in the dark.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

All of the medical symptoms. Am I dying? Do I have lupus? Only my incognito friend will know.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I ask ChatGPT all my stupid questions

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

sometimes yea, but most of the time no.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I've been doing that too. Especially when I don't even know enough to form a googleable query.

"Who was that guy in that movie where that one scene happened?"

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

"is cum a laxative?"

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

i just use the normal browser mode for stuff like that

¿Por qué no los dos?
