If you’re on Android and use Firefox, you can use the Disable JavaScript extension to disable JS on sites with paywalls, like NYtimes. While not perfect, it works remarkably well.

Also works great on Desktop.

Agreed, it’s clearly meant as a joke.

Yep, dat werkte, dank! Maf dat dat niet standaard is.

Much appreciated Bucky, I’ll give that a shot and will report back.

Edit: worked like a charm!

Potentially related, not sure: does anyone know how I can get touchscreen scrolling working in Firefox on a fresh Ubuntu 23.10 install? Currently it’s just selecting text and it’s driving me up the proverbial wall. Googling was unsuccessful.

Well said, fartsparkles

The “translator” was probably just some hapless programmer who fed it to ChatGPT, and does not speak a word of German nor gets paid enough to check.

On the one hand I agree, it’s not just the OS that’s replaced, it’s also the programs that run on it (unless they use cloud based apps, of course).

On the other hand, the Germany example you mentioned was 15 or so years ago. I imagine Linux has matured a lot since then.
