YouTube algorithm tries really hard to make me far right every few months. It suddenly starts recommending me fox news and "progressives destroyed in a debate" type shit videos. Usually lasts about a day.

The site asking them to paste something into powershell was a phishing site mimicking cloudflare to install virus.

Preferably a train, then bus, then I drive a car. I at least text the group of people who live nearby if anyone wants a ride.

That's something I've attempted to say more than once but never formulated this well.

Every time I search for something tech-related, I have to spend a considerable amount of energy just trying to figure out whether I'm looking at a well written technical document or a crap resembling it. It's especially hard when I'm very new to the topic.

Paradoxically, AI slop made me actually read the official documentation much more, as it's now easier than to do this AI-checking. And also personal blogs, where it's usually clearly visible they are someone's beloved little digital garden.

There's like a million reasons some people can't affort to go full vegan, and shittalking people who at least do something is not a good idea when the majority doesn't care. It's like saying people who use public transport are ok with global warming because they could just walk or ride a bike.

I don't really see that conclusion, but that's a whole another debate.

Understanding between individuals like you describe occur naturally all the time. When there's a protest against something, nobody questions attenders about their ideology. If they support the cause, they protest. All together. It doesn't have to be formalized.

 

You get to live a happy life and don't care about all the horrible things happening all across the world. You wouldn't feel terrible for children getting killed in a genocide half the globe away, every day. Blissful ignorance.

My response would be no. And I suppose most responses are gonna be no, but I also don't think anyone who already doesn't care would take a pill to start caring. That's an interesting concept to me.

I'm sure that what me caring does to my mental state is far worse than however good is anything it does to anyone else. But by that logic, if everyone stopped caring, how would the world look like?

EDIT: It's permanent. It doesn't take away your emotions, it just stops you from caring about things like wars as long as they don't directly affect you. Just like many people already have it.

Hi, I'm thinking about writing a media piracy tutorial for absolute beginners (think my mother - people who can use browsers and office but that's about it).

Does anybody know what's the legislation for that? I'm in the Czech Republic (EU), and the site is hosted on Codeberg pages (Germany). Nameservers for my domain are managed by CloudFlare (USA). So I'm curious about both EU and US laws.

If it's illegal, can I make it legal by not including any direct links, or stating some "educational purposes only" bullshit?

I feel like the internet is full of that stuff and even GitHub READMEs usually get away with "we don't condone piracy", but I also vaguely remember some lawsuit against redditors discussing piracy?

Thanks for advice.

 

I made this userscript to play multiple videos from pirate streaming sites in sync (play/pause them at the same time)

usecase: You want to watch dubbed version of a movie (most people here probably watch in english, but may have friends or family members who don't). You find dubbed version, but in poor quality. Finding high quality english version is easy. You play the english version muted in foreground, and the dubbed version with audio in the background. With this userscript, you can play or pause them at the same time.

Not sure if anyone else finds it useful, but it' super useful for me, so I figured I'll share it here.

I've written this blog post about moving from rooted Samsung to a Pixel running GrapheneOS. It's a list of every root tool that I used, with a note on whether I'll miss it. I wrote it as a checklist for myself initially, and decided to add links and more comments and publish it. Turns out I don't really need root, which truly surprised me.

Do you have any apps or tools that hold you back from leaving root?

 

Hi, I've been using Instander for some time, but even the early beta is outdated by now, and doesn't work correctly. Does anyone have any recommendations on good Instagram mods? I know about AeroInsta, Honista, MyInsta and few others, but not sure which are safe.

PS: please tell me if this isn't the right community for this question, I'm not sure but it seems like the best one PPS: I know precisely how bad instagram is, and I still want/need to use it, so please don't waste your time telling me that.

Not exactly as funny meme as I would like it to be, but I just found out about that feature after having to hold the power button due to a frozen system countless times, and I had to tell someone.

 

It's very much WIP.
