Thanks, orb

What are you talking about?

There is no Paywall

[–] orbituary@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 1 day ago (2 children)

For me there is. You have to log in to see the article.

[–] AmidFuror@fedia.io 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Me too. Never seen this before for CNN, but I stopped reading it regularly months ago.

[–] orbituary@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 day ago

It's not a great source mostly.

[–] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Share it to Firefox, and click the little page in the browser bar to open reader mode. Sometimes you have to refresh it to get past the prompt. Works most of the time, it's a great trick.

Reader mode is great, and I'm surprised every time it still works to bypass paywalls

[–] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 1 points 12 hours ago

I found out about it from a comment on lemmy! A hidden jem! The enshittifiers missed it! So far...

Listen, jackass. Maybe I don't want to identify myself to CNN or anything else.

I run GrapheneOS, I run Fennec and Tor constantly. I have a VPN running. Why the actual fuck should I bother to log into CNN to see some shit-ass article when the culture of Lemmy is to be what Reddit is NOT.

So, fuck off with your "fuck off" statement.

This is Lemmy, not Reddit.

[–] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 0 points 8 hours ago

I see your "fuck off" and and raise you 3 "eat shits" and one "go fuck yourself"

As an aside, you are far less cool than you think. Dickhead.

[–] Tikiporch@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I know where I'm at, which is why I'm surprised you expect people who actually contribute posts to cater to you so much. That's peak reddit entitlement.

[–] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 1 points 8 hours ago

The fun thing about lemmy is you get to know all the assholes by name. I've met that cob a few times now.

[–] MyOpinion@lemm.ee 53 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

We know they are all Nazis.

[–] orbituary@lemmy.dbzer0.com 17 points 1 day ago

You can tell because of the apostrophe.

[–] 0li0li@lemmy.world 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Nazi sympathizer. So not an actual Nazi, thank god!

same thing by transitive property

[–] thefartographer@lemm.ee 8 points 1 day ago

Man crop-dusting every person he passes disavows own asshole
