The best-best time might’ve been 10 years ago or something but… now is good.

Once you fire up a webpage it’ll just dump garbage all over the couch.

Got any recommendations?

I don’t want to encourage paranoia here but “off” does not mean “off”. Modern phones are almost never actually “powered down”. If you’re paranoid, turning your phone off is not enough. Leave it behind.

(Also a gap in your phone’s location history can also be used against you, fwiw.)

“The fourth amendment means what we say it means” – SCOTUS, probably.

It doesn’t mean that in this case, except perhaps very indirectly.

Vaultwarden is Bitwarden–at least for now, this change may push them apart.

No, technically they already are SaaS company. That’s mostly how they make their money.

Also it should be noted “no longer open source” doesn’t mean they’ve done a “our code is now closed and all your passwords are ours” rug pull like some other corporations. This is a technical concern with the license and it no longer meets proper FOSS standards (in other words, it has a restriction on it now that you wouldn’t see in, for example, the GPL).

So by and large the change is very minimal, the code is still available, it’s still the best option. However, this does matter. It may be a sign of the company changing directions. It’s something they should get pushback about.

Honestly, it’s Bitwarden right now. This move signals their intent to change that, though.

You don’t want blue light anyway because it messes with your night vision.

1000% this. Aftermarket, fucked colors, and/or no alignment is the cause of the problems. I would add that a lot of aftermarket lights are also way too bright. Sure, the owner can see (a tiny bit) better but everyone else gets blinded. Even then, it’s not bad unless they’re not aligned properly. (Well, it’ll still blind you if it’s a truck directly behind you but that’s just trucks.)

Unfortunately, the powerful have the power so they’re arranging my life too. To the best of their ability, at least.

You’re right that we should not confuse their values for our own, however.

Don’t need to go that far, i think. If you had your extension hash some piece of each keyframe (basically: tokenize some IDs for each keyframe) and submit them to a database you could then see which parts were shown to everyone vs only to some people and only display those. Basically similar to how sponsorblock crowd sources its sponsor segment detection but automated. Some people would see the ads but then you’d know what the og video was unless it gets edited.

This is assuming they’re not reencoding the video for each advertisement, which they probably aren’t. If they are it probably gets easier, actually. Sponsorblock could do that.

Compared to the cost of reencoding the video (or even segments of it) it would be basically nothing, though.

“Line go up” is the animating force of the age, the critical philosophical principal around which our entire society is arranged.

Gives me a fucking headache.

RSS feed -> yt-dlp script -> auto queue the folder into the player of your choice. Hmm…

(Edit: Though that may not actually work considering this is apparently fully server side. Gonna have to get clever…)

Imagine not having 70,000 followers. Fate worse then death.

I mean it’s still not an edge case. It’s just not.

Like, insert that “That’s not how this works, that isn’t how any of this works” meme here.

It’s not a slur, is the thing. Not any more than “transgender” is and, in fact, less so.

They know this but they are pretending otherwise, as if Elongated Muskrat were a power mad 1990s forum moderator.

Try typing the word “cisgender” into Twitter.
