If you just want to use it from your home computer / network you can run it locally, either installing it directly or in a container. You only need a server (or a way to connect to your home network) if you want to access it from elsewhere.

The period after MS stopped messing with it and before software stopped supporting it was the nicest time to use Windows 7, I expect it to be the same for Windows 10.

So, since Elon doesn’t want it anymore, we could now reclaim the word “tweet” as a generic term for posting on social media, regardless of platform.

What would you need an addon for? If you enable the clipboard monitor, jdownloader automatically adds all downloads it finds from any link you copy.

Edit: If you don’t like the clipboard monitoring you can also use the Open With addon to explicitly add links.

https://www.qnap.com/en/product/qda-a2mar seems to be the one in your image. From the users guide it seems it does everything you listed. The prices I’ve seen are about 100 € / $ though plus the two SSDs you need, personally I’d invest in external backup instead, that covers more data loss scenarios than this adapter.

Yeah, I’d like to see emissions attributed to the places where products end up, not where they’re produced.

Have a look at https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Zram - a compressed block device in RAM that can be formatted as swap. There are various tools to set it up, maybe your distro already includes one of them. And htop has a meter for it, so you can see how effective the compression is (besides its own zramctl tool).

But if you implement something in your browser that allows websites to block anything that isn’t an accepted browser (and websites use it because they don’t want their precious data to feed random AIs) you effectively prevent any potential competition from crawling websites to build a search index that might threaten your position.

If no person does anything nothing changes.

Of course your own choices in isolation don’t change much. But that’s like saying voting doesn’t do anything because a single vote doesn’t matter. We all can make choices that add up through all of society.

I’m not saying a few people fucking over the rest is a conspiracy theory.

I’m saying that all those conspiracy theories people love to discuss are pushed to capture the attention of those people and have them think they’re involved in something important and spend all their energy on that, so the assholes can keep on fucking them over without much resistance.

If musicbrainz has an acoustic fingerprint for the songs it doesn’t need metadata. Picard is more or less the GUI version of beets.

Just the boring one: That all the exciting conspiracies (and other stuff like “culture wars”) are there to distract from the banal reality of most people and the world being exploited by a few selfish assholes.

It was time to switch to Invidious anyway.

Which will stop working once this is implemented, since it doesn’t use a trusted browser to access YT. As will any kind of automated access. Search engine bots, archive crawlers, third party apps… anything websites don’t like or know won’t be able to access them anymore.

If you want to continue using any of them, you should probably uninstall any Chrome-based browser now: https://techreport.com/news/google-tries-to-defend-its-web-environment-integrity-as-critics-slam-it-as-dangerous/

“Through WEI, Google aims to help websites weed out bots by verifying that the visitors on their domains are actual users.”

In other words, if this gets implemented it is likely that Youtube will block anything that doesn’t look like a “real browser” (i.e. Chrome), so no videos in alternative apps anymore.

Yeah, I added the link since the embedded image didn’t seem to work.

Hm, how do images work across instances? Maybe this way?

If you want to push back against the rising right-wing bigotry modding a decently sized subreddit might be one of the most effective places for regular people to do so. Arguably that power is not irrelevant in today’s social media landscape.

Let’s hope there’s already a law that the EU can find to apply (since they already don’t like the non-EU dominance of big tech), or that they make one in time.

Reddit: Demonstrates that locking away content is bad for the site and the wider internet.

Elon Musk: “I want that for my website!”
