1. Open Firefox app
2. Open the 3-dot menu (⋮) and choose Settings.
3. Scroll and find and choose "Site settings"
4. Choose "Microphone".

If you see the following screen, then Android is blocking Firefox access to microphone.

However, if you see only the two options "Ask to allow" and "Block", without any following complain from Firefox regarding Android, then Firefox already has microphone access from Android, and it's (Firefox) ready to ask or block whenever a site tries to access microphone.

There are two kinds of permissions at play: the Android's microphone permission for Firefox, and Firefox's microphone permission for sites.

Firefox needs permission from Android in order to access the microphone. Then, sites need permission from Firefox to access the microphone. You can set Firefox to block access, allow access or ask for access. The latter is the default option, so every time a site tries to access navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia() or navigator.getUserMedia(), Firefox will show a popup asking whether to allow or block such access.

If the signal is too strong, it'd certainly interfere with the circuitry inside everything electronic, even optical network modems within PCI adapters (computers).

It's not that Lemmy hates videos and AI. Lemmy (understandably) hates YouTube* videos and AI.

We the Fediverse have our own video platforms, such as Peertube, and more recently, loops.video. Linking to YouTube defies a golden purpose that motivated us as the fediverse: privacy, no tracking, no ads, no enshittification.

It's been a long time since I watched TV here in Brazil, but as far as I know, there are prescription drug ads here too. One brand that suddenly comes to mind is a known painkiller (acetylsalicylic acid), I remember seeing a lot of ads from them during commercial breaks back when I watched TV.

Those ads used to be followed by a quickly-spoken (so fast that it was almost unintelligible) disclaimer "Esse medicamento não deve ser usado em caso de suspeita de dengue. Se persistirem os sintomas o médico deverá ser consultado." (English translation: "this medication shouldn't be taken in cases of suspected dengue fever. If the symptoms persist, see a doctor").

I've been on Lemmy for 4 months now. I've never had any problems with the rules. In fact, I haven't had any problems with any of the instances so far, even those that people consider "extreme" (like Hexbear and Lemmy.ml, people often complain about problems with their users, I personally haven't had any problems at all with them; on the contrary, I usually interact there in a productive and peaceful way, even when I disagree with them on some things).

I think it has more to do with people's behavior than with the strictness of certain instances/communities. I always try to be respectful. Respectfulness is the key.

Sometimes I use the laptop over my chest while laying down. I avoid this because of the heat, but the laziness gets to me sometimes.

I was trying Terraria, which has a lot of creativity possibilities. I was trying to earthwork/terraform a small world (i.e. trying to make it level from ocean to ocean), while simultaneously "voidforming" another small world (i.e. digging out every single "removable" block before Hardmode, which obviously excluded Lihzard temple blocks, Dungeon blocks and Crimson/Corruption altars; for lava, I was using the infinite bucket trick to replicate honey in order to consume lava from the Underworld; I don't plan on reaching Hardmode for such world). I was taking blocks from the second world (the world to be voidformed) and "smuggling" them into the first world (the world to be terraformed) in order to compensate for the need for additional blocks (e.g. sand, ice, mud, etc) when biomes were generated below ocean level.

Turns out that I was doing this not exactly for fun and enjoyment, but something to "try to keep myself busy and away from bad thoughts", and that was not really a good goal for myself. By now, it has been weeks since I last played.

Thanks for the clarification. It's the first time I heard something as a "total fire ban", so I thought it was a very strict thing that also included controlled and small indoor flames, such as candles and incense sticks, away from combustible things that would render the fire uncontrollable. Indeed, fire is a thing that needs responsibility so to avoid wildfires.

It's also summer in Brazil, which also brings the risk of droughts. Brazil has some laws regarding prohibition of fire, especially within parks and national forests, but (unfortunately) there are little to no enforcement, and that's why wildfires have been spreading throughout the Amazon rainforest. People over here are used to throw out "cigarette ends" on streets and roads, and this is bad in many ways: from pollution to risk of sparking fire because of how those cigarette ends could contain lit fire within.

Redirecting the output of ls to commands such as hexdump or od would allow to notice if the name has international characters or if they were replaced by some placeholder character (which would be represented as a repeated value across the hex dump)

The problem with non-rechargeable batteries is how they can easily become e-waste. Yes, there are recycling programs, but I once heard rumors about fake recycling programs that simply dispatches the e-waste to landfills across poor countries, polluting their soils. Rechargeable batteries will eventually become e-waste, too, but it seems to take longer than non-rechargeable batteries... of course it depends on how frequently they are charged and discharged. I have rechargeable batteries (which I use in my wireless keyboard/mouse set, digital hygrometer and a Bluetooth joystick) that have been lasting for years, I even don't remember when I bought them. It's worth mentioning that the battery brand I use is known by their poor quality (Multilaser, a Brazilian company that sells white-label electronics under their brand), and yet they've been holding charge.
