Ahhh. My apologies. I'm grumpy sometimes in the morning. :/

Seriously? Not just an advertising bot, but one that reposts from reddit? Ban this shit already.
LineageOS? plus Magisk (yes I have rooted it, so perhaps that allowed an opening somwhere). I will have to watch to see if anything re-appears I suppose.
OK, that really makes me suspicious that they're installing Bing via MS Authenticator app as well.. Bing app showed up on my phone and I just noticed it yesterday. Hmmmm.
Perhaps I just did something stupid, but I just found Bing and anothernMS app in my Android phone's app list... never explicitly installed those. I do have Authenticator, though (for work). Has MS stooped to piggybacking their crap from others silently now?
sourcehut, self-hosted Gogs or Forgejo are some good candidates. Gitea is popular, but there's apparently been some drama about them going commercial without proper buy-in from their contributors. (The code lineage is AFAIK Gogs → Gitea → Forgejo).
All the above solutions make it super-easy to mirror a github project as well, just in case it goes away :) Doing so has saved my arse more than a few times when github takes a repo down for stupid reasons.
Mandatory plug for !selfhosted@lemmy.world :)
Gitlab seems too heavyweight to me. I use Gogs myself on my home server. No code review tools via PR ala github/gitlab, but I don't need those in my web frontend.
Posts you make on a forum are not "works" that are copyrightable.
That may depend on the platform -- slashdot (remember that site?) once upon a time had a footer on their pages stating "All posts belong to their authors". There were a few big debates about that being legally enforceable. Hmm. I wonder if there ever was a legal ruling on that.
I notice today their site does not have such a disclaimer. Probably disappeared long ago, due to one of their many corporate buyouts.
Aha! Well, coincidentally, a few weeks ago I just found out about another IA download tool for getting books that are hidden behind the borrow wall.
NOTE DeGourou is incompatible with the tool mentioned in my post here (Python library differences) so install it in a different account if you want to use both tools often. (Maybe someone more fluent in Python can find out why installing one breaks the other?)
Now DeGourou seems to only download individual books. Would be great if it could be made to iterate over entire collections as well...
Good use case for old flash, and I'm all for saving bits from the landfill if they can be used. Hmm. That reminds me I should get my retro game setup going again...
Fair enough, so long as one knows what one is getting. If it's for mostly read-only storage I guess it could be fine, as your use cases suggest.
..but if they're scavenged from old Apple products, who knows how much wear the flash has? It might have a drastically shortened lifetime; that would be very bad for an SSD.
interface ICs, etc. don't wear in this way, but Flash memory.. I'd never want used flash for my SSD.
The founders of the Proud Boys also had Canadian roots, did they not? Gavin McInnes
