  • the lengths required to defeat youtube automatic copyright detection even for short segments of videos suggests that it can be done. if it can be done with the resources of consumer devices that's the question.

  • I think it's more like extracting raisins? ad contents are still separate from the dough. finding the boundary conditions or ads hashes is guaranteed to work. whether it is feasible for adblockers is a different matter yet.

  • if you ever dropped water or liquids on a notebook and placed it in a bucket full of rice afterwards, did the notebook work again?
  • I know of this one time (last year) a window that was purposely kept shut was opened by a visitor and the notebook was rained upon. completely soaked. Kept in rice for about a month (changing the rice on some schedule), it booted up fine for a while. then died completely after a few weeks.

    How Google perfected the web
    www.theverge.com How Google perfected the web

    The web is filled with content designed for Google, not humans.

    How Google perfected the web

    We often hear about the latest engagement hacks on other platforms like Instagram, TikTok, or X, formerly known as Twitter. But Google is consequential above all of these, acting essentially as the referee of the web. Yet deep knowledge of how its systems work is largely limited to industry publications and marketing firms — as users, we don’t get an explanation of why sites suddenly look different or how Google ranks one website above another. It just happens.

    Bit by bit, the internet has been remade in Google’s image. And it’s humans — not machines — who have to deal with the consequences.

    Some goals of this site:

    -Make it easy and quick for musicians to find the tools they need -Focus on good quality software with proper UI -Promote the great developers that make the effort of supporting Linux -Showcase the software using modern web technology

    Has Windows startup repair or a troubleshooter ever fixed your issue even once?
  • I think it pointed out the right direction at least once, back when i was doing tech support (xp and pre-xp). Back when the toolkit includes whole stacks of cd's containing every driver known to exist. I don't even remember what it is, but it was something Realtek.

  • Z-Library Blog: "Unprecedented seizure of our domains with books on rare languages"
  • I once left a torrent on for ~three years at 50%, obviously no one seeded that anymore. one day i realised it was completed, and i have no idea when. now i only streamed my high sea amusements, i don't even have a torrent client on anymore, but i like to think that the three copies seeded from mine (based on uploaded data) is still out there somewhere.

  • [Mental Outlaw] YouTube Accidentally Made Ad Blockers More Powerful
  • No, there's an A/B implementation going on. The UBO maintainers hadn't seen the crackdown themselves and had to rely on troubleshooting reports to see what is going on which is wild to think about - both on their skill but also did google specifically whitelist them or are they exceptionally lucky

  • [Mental Outlaw] YouTube Accidentally Made Ad Blockers More Powerful
  • same here. it's the real reason i don't set it up for people, they need to be able to at least maintain it. My mother can't get the update working either until i did it step by step with her and she practiced it several time.

  • How much does it really matter to use firefox?
  • Or to recap from history, Internet Explorer has no incentive to follow web standards and web design was a stagnant table-based layout until Netscape shows up. Wouldn't have complete separation of text and style the way we do today if css never took off.

  • Deleted
    *Permanently Deleted*
  • honestly at this point i just do uBO purge-cache/update every time i went to youtube after a long enough gap ( haha hours. mere hours i'm addicted) from the last time.

  • Hey Google, go fuck yourself entirely
  • you can go onto your youtube history, search for that video and remove it from your history, and it will stop influencing your recommendations.

    every now and then i watch a video about a topic i'm not really interested in except for that one video, and then had to remove it from history.
