I use sponsorblock, it’s great, but it only applies to that type of streamer content/ad. And it doesn’t have full coverage for that. It doesn’t help if your streaming service has unskippable ads. And Google is inching closer to insert ads into the Youtube video stream dynamically which will make them truly unblockable.
With Spotify you can’t even mute an ad without it pausing until you unmute.
On cable once they came out with DVRs you could skip the ado. Now there are unskippable ados and it’s much worse.
Yes, you can run the web server locally and access it in your browser like any other site. You just wouldn’t be able to access it from outside your home network.
Since you want to be able to access these stories as well as store them, you can kill two birds with one stone by creating a Django app with a SQLite backend. The builtin admin site will let you browse and search the content without having to write much code.
June 2025 is when manifest v2 is supposed to die for good. I think the issue is that it’s not really possible for Vivaldi or Microsoft or whoever to keep the code in there long term even if they wanted to.
Isn’t every chromium browser going to lose manifest v2 eventually, causing the real ublock origin to stop working?
Don’t make a bigger deal out of it than it is. Nothing bad is going to happen.
We should end mail-in voting so if this happens the day before the next election we don’t miss out on the benefit.
The obsession with privacy can be taken to an extreme where it’s a negative for your mental health. You can sacrifice a little privacy for another important benefit. 100% privacy is either not possible or practical, so don’t let it stress you out. I’d be more concerned that AI might lead you down a wrong path, but you’re an adult, use your own judgement.
I’m saying when I saved this image, I saw the context surrounding these. This was meant at face value.
If she can’t figure out how to find and watch something straight up there’s no way she’s figuring out usenet.
Sadly no, just another right wing bluecheck dick-riding grok.
I have, yeah. From the context around these tweets she hadn’t seen it and was curious about watching it.
Maybe. It’s stupidity all the way down.
Why would they check for piracy when it’s not them you’re pirating from and stopping piracy would remove the most popular use case of their product?
No you don’t. I’ve shared with people and I’ve never had a pass.
No shade or anything but how does that work in a single player pretty linear game, what’s the draw after you finish it a few times?
This was shitty, but the giants are worse than the smaller companies. Roku works fine and ad-free if you block the ad/tracking domains. Try separating the ads/tracking from the stuff you need on a Google device.
I am begging people, stop watching the absolute worst Chris Pratt shit they dump on your home screen and then this money will have to be spent on movies that actually try to be good.
It takes principle and courage to enrich the Nazi site for only two and a half years and not a day longer.
