fyi
I didnt know they havent got any pay increase for 2 years, kinda make sense now ig
Personal opinion:
I love trains, but not having train services every other weekend pisses me off.
"Aslef, the train drivers' union, said it is seeking better pay for its members and claimed drivers are being asked to sacrifice working conditions in exchange for a wage increase." Say that to a tube driver, he'll land a really good punch on your face.
They got better pay than a tube driver, and a much more pleasant working environment (especially tne part where the background noise is less than 80dB), I don't really see what's their argument.
it is actually how the exploit was found
- Here's an extension which turns YouTube into an Invidious-like site, removing all addicting elements.
- If you're using Linux, I wrote the youtube-tui a few years back, very similar to the extension where you get nothing but the search bar and subscriptions.
theres no need to buy a new one, u can always upgrade
someone rebooted the project as youtube revanced, someone was even kind enough to build all the apks and post them on github (idk if they are safe, but i use them anyways)
im on linux so i use bind a command to a shortcut, like firefox https://lemmy.ml
u can probably do similar things on windows
i remember that runescape meme of 2147M gold, tho ive never played the game before
i did it, turns out all i need to do was to paste in the full script and it will do the timings automatically, sweet.
yeah but its not the same, sure you could mod your router or use a pihole to get adblocking, but it is not the same convenience as extensions, and by far ublock origin is the best adblocker no arguments raised.
moreover companies can't really do much when they are completely reliant on chromium, and they can't do much except pulling PR stunts and try to sound like they are doing something while all they're doing is to merge commits from upstream chromium once in a while
one example is the "we will continue to support v2" stunt by brave, which is not possible as they have 0 experience maintaining a browser, also vivaldi is absolutely proprietary
just realised something, if my understanding is correct, MV3 also banned remotely hosted content, with a publish delay up to 2 weeks google (specifically youtube) can easily break uBO lite if they want to, i dont know if that is how uBO lite works, or if the rules will only be enforced after June, but if it is true uBO lite is not gonna live long either
realistic community chest card
repost from the hyprland discord, where i first found this meme
I was under the impression the uBO lite wasn't nearly as good and it missed a lot of ads, it seems like things have changed a bit since I've last followed on the MV3 situation.
Also about Safari extension support, I didn't research anything on this topic, I just thought it's extension support must be incompetent because the uBlock Origin installation for Safari seemed like a hassle, turns out im not that far off.
also, infographics are great for these explainers video, because i could jam pack so much more information that is otherwise impossible, and in 1:53 I've referenced "all chromium browsers" with all their logo on screen, which is insanely efficient because with this visual style of story telling I could brought up two points at the same time:
- chromium browsers are affected
- these browsers on screen are chromium browsers
well, it's a video making decision. most people these days have virtually negative attention span, and they would click off the video given the slightest chance, and listing Chromium browsers would be too much time for too little argument made.
I've accepted that I'm not mental outlaw and people wouldn't be tuning in for a podcast, so the best I could do is the minesweep the video and remove any opportunities, because if I don't do that, most people won't get past the first 10 seconds, "getting straight to the point" is one of the things I've learnt while doing youtube
well a bit more on that, since i record my audio an audacity, there are 3 types of noise suppression i could do
- the first one of course is no noise suppression at all
- then there is the standard noise suppression
- and then there is the new RNNoise suppression
RNNoise is the best at removing noise, but it also cuts off all the deeper parts of my voice (i think, because I have no way of knowing how I really sound like), so here its a tradeoff between getting the entirety of my voice, or absolute silence, here i chose my voice
thanks for the advice, i will do that maybe in the future

Chromium Manifest V3 Explained for Toddlers

Most people still haven't heard of Manifest V3, so if you are one of those not using Firefox, this is for you.
If you’ve been on YouTube or Reddit August last year, you might’ve seen this screen yourself, or a screenshot of someone else getting it. This of course, I am talking about the infamous YouTube ad blocker blocker popup, discussion exploded on Reddit mostly consisting of people complaining about ads, as well as an angry mob storming r/memes, turning it into a Firefox propaganda centre.
About a month later, different adblockrs eventually found their way of bypassing detection, and they work on YouTube again. So natrually Redditors thought they’ve won another war against big tech, completely ignoring Google’s original plan to kill off adblockers by June this year.
So all extensions, including adblockers follows a specification called the Manifest V2. The Manifest allows extensions to do certain things, say accessing browser tabs or to change browser settings. All while pu

I am the Rust programmer, I will rewrite the world in Rust. I will rewrite the world in Rust because the world is unsafe. As I am the Rust programmer I will keep writing rust until the world is safe. After the world is safe, I will not rewrite it in Rust. Because I am the Rust programmer I will retire from programmer in Rust.
I will come to you when you are sleeping, and I will unloc k your computer using a memory leak. If I find javascript on your computer, I will delete them. Do not try to stop me, if you try to stop me I will do it anyways. I am the Rust programmer, if you program in javascript, you will scream.
You will be sleeping as I rewrite your computer in Rust. You will not notice me as I am the Rust programmer, I am fast, but not too fast for your computer. I know your computer just as it knows me. After I rewrite your computer, you will love your computer. You will love your computer because it is written in Rust, I will do the same to all computers because I am the Rust
